JD looked and talked like an alien making his first contact with humans. He lacks any charisma, and you can tell he doesn’t actually believe anything he says. And because of that, the moderators asked many times about his stance on almost everything being 180 degrees from when he started the Trump audition.

Also I don’t think Republican = MAGA cult anymore. I also feel 99% of these “undecided” voters at this point are going to vote Trump, and are just reaching for something that they can say is the reason other than racism.

A tariff isn’t a money making tool, it’s about making a good not as great a deal against another, typically a domestically made good.

Correct. So in the car example, it really only works if the US puts a tariff on imports, and then they do some kind of government credit for domestic cars. This would raise the price of imported cars while making domestic cars more affordable to Americans.

I’m sure the Right that pushed so hard to get rid of affirmative action will also be behind this as they are very against discrimination. /s

Good on California though, if the Supreme Court doesn’t want to help minorities, then we shouldn’t be giving white/rich students a stacking advantage either.

(For some reason I thought of it as a game with buff stacking)

I think to call yourself a hospital the law should require them to adhere to medical science, not a religious belief. If they want to be religion first, and medical second, then they should be a private clinic that is labeled as such so people know they are not going to get the full hospital medical care one would expect from an institution calling itself a hospital.

He is also famous for not listening, because he thinks he is smarter than everyone in the room. He is also rarely held accountable for any of the word salad that he spews like a firehose. He also surrounds himself with people providing constant negative reinforcement of rewarding him like he actually did well, when in reality he functions so outside acceptable for most things. Then couple that with being a classic narcissist and it’s not surprising he is basically clueless on almost any subject asked of him.

Odyssey has a page in their FAQ about it.

I love that Trump has no ability to do any critical thinking, and thinks of everything as very literal now. He believes the planes are actually invisible, the only way to prevent Forrest fires is to actually rake the forest, and now that a literal giant faucet would be used to divert water in what kinda sounds like a Roman aqueduct to Socal.

I also agree that journalists should not be spinning Trump’s word salad, that makes zero sense, by calling them “poetic” and then trying to explain what the hell he is maybe trying to say. He is running to the President of the US, if he can’t explain how he wants to use plumbing to divert water from the Columbia river to Socal he should be asked about that over and over until he can articulate that. Journalists doing the heavy lifting of making real ideas out of Trump’s babble should be looked down upon. Instead they continue to “both sides” anything left of the far-right.

And of course the site is built on using a blockchain by a company the government shutdown for fraud.

LBRY, Inc.'s CEO was a political activist named Jeremy Kauffman. The company closed in July 2023 after losing a lawsuit from the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission which found that LBRY had sold unregistered securities.

Although a bank(s) are involved, so a public statement from someone with an audience asking said bank(s) why they are supporting hate speech might be cool.

This is almost certainly why Trump’s sons have pushed Trump to pretend to back crypto so much. They want in on grifting his followers using crypto.

Nope, highlighted to show why the right is pushing to end no-fault divorce, and divorce in general. They see women as objects that they are signing a contract for, and then own forever thereafter. They see them as property to do as they like with.

So like abortion, they play the “family” card, but it’s about controlling women and their bodies. The family is just a side effect of the “wife” performing her “marital duty”.

With Project 2025 they also want to end no-fault divorce for everyone.

A 2004 paper by economists Betsey Stevenson and Justin Wolvers found an 8 to 16% decrease in female suicides after states enacted no-fault divorce laws. They also noted a roughly 30% decrease in intimate partner violence among both women and men, and a 10% drop in women murdered by their partners.

Just looking at the stats you can see why they oppose it.

Have you seen the video of when they left Don to his own devices (pun intended), and he was trying to pay for a burger at some bar with bitcoin? The two guys running the place basically take his phone from his hands and one does the transaction for him while the other guy keeps checking their system to see if it worked. It was an amazing “grandpa gets a smartphone” piece of video.

Now that I’m not on mobile, and for anyone that doesn’t want to search it out themselves.

Imagine being 61 and still having zero idea how the mail works.

Also not sure why it popped into my head, but the thought of this man doing community service (like picking up trash on the side of the road) while a guard blasted “U.N.I.T.Y.” by Queen Latifah over and over would just be amazing.

Nuzzi noting to pals that the 70-year-old had impressive sexual stamina

For a 70-year-old? Or is she saying that he masturbates on camera like a man in his 30’s? I guess congrats to webcam grandpa for being so tech savy.

Also to fuel the nightmare, I can’t stop picturing the video of Trump barely understanding how to do his speaker phone interview with Musk on his iPhone, let alone a webcam masturbation session with a woman 1/2 his age.

His crowd (cult) is a measure of his self worth. He surrounds himself with people that will shower him with praise, and attacks anyone that doesn’t feed his ego. If he hadn’t started a life of crime so early, he probably would have loved setting up a compound and just living out his days with a cult to control and have them heap praise on him every second of every day.

You could, but then the money goes to some business instead of a grifter. Don’t you love America?! /s

I think the idea behind getting rid of it with Project 2025 is the hard anti-climate change denial stance they want to push. And they think if we can’t track the weather somehow nobody will notice that the weather events are increasing in intensity and occurrence rate.

Lance Wallnau, a self-described prophet

Ummm … this guy has/is building a cult. This guy is making up new “Christian” ideas and has made himself a conduit for god. This is Trump bringing this cult into his own, and by doing so enforcing this guy’s power over his followers.

OMG, the daily show did a bit where Desi Lydic read a post he made of fantasy sex with his sister in-law, but replaced gross stuff with “smurf”.

This officer should have gone to Trump University and and would have learned you can defeat magnets by just getting them wet. A cup of water, BOOM, no more magnet!

Also, did the officer believe upon entering the outside room that they were somehow growing pot plants in the MRI tube behind an invisible curtain or something? Why would you need to walk into the room? Also, buying all that medical equipment would be a pretty big investment as just a front to grow a few pot plants. How does a warrant like that even get signed off on? Increased power compared to other non-medical buildings, and someone who thought they smelled pot? I’m sure it couldn’t have been someone in the waiting room that smoked up, or was around someone smoking before before going inside, right?
