  1. We'll see. I bet those seats fill up pretty quick. Last time, there were at least attempts made--as incompetent as they were--to create a normalish, functioning government. This time, it's going to be a Trump government through and through. We'll see how much they actually care about the "fit" on an appointed position vs. will you do whatever Trump needs in the moment.
  2. Among the base? None. They lack the intellectual honesty. Things can't possibly get bad enough for self reflection. But pretty much everyone who voted for Trump for the first time? Good luck to you.
  3. Yes, but their great fitness and independent success is just a coping mechanism for their debilitating mental health. /a very serious person
  4. If I'm being honest? Yeah, kinda. Certainly no Brad Pitt, but being of direct Norwegian ancestry has its physical trait advantages. But who gives a flying fuck except for miserable, angry little trolls?
  5. Pace yourself, friend.
  6. [Johnny viciously insults women's appearances unprovoked for multiple hours] G650 and I: "Uh, since you keep bringing it up, remember how unattractive you are?" Johnny: "Oh yeah! Well I look really good now, and I bet you guys are the uggos!" You're so thin-skinned it's hilarious.
  7. When Macklemore is closely following you and immediately giving all of your posts rep, you know you went and done said some dumb stuff.
  8. I mean this respectfully, but you are way out of your element. There are valid arguments out there for lessening our involvement in Ukraine, but you are absolutely not making them.
  9. You would prefer they would have already died fighting because they had shit supplies? There was no scenario where they were surrendering to Putin peacefully and living under his thumb. Again, we're not actually losing money supplying Ukraine with weapons. Like it or not, it definitely doesn't hurt our economy. I agree that Russia poses no military threat that to us. Had Putin stayed in his lane, we would have just continued our adversarial relationship, no problem. But invading another sovereign country is frowned upon these days.
  10. Sorry. Putin is absolutely our enemy and actively wants to destabilize us (and Europe), and is making ongoing efforts to do so. Better?
  11. Seriously, we all have many issues with the military industrial complex... ...but it's also why we're America.
  12. These aren't two random African or Middle East countries having another scrap. This is an American enemy looking to expand its influence and power by invading a sovereign nation. No, we're probably not going to have a boots-on-the-ground war with Russia anytime soon, but they are our enemy, and they obviously have anti-American intentions. Severely weakening them by providing the country being invaded--and who want to resist--with old stock (while we stimulate jobs and the economy by funding new tech) is one of the better investments we've ever made.
  13. I think people think we lose actual money as a country when we handout weapons.
  14. Where do we report this interesting information to our new overlords?
  15. This, this, this. Trump doesn't care about governing or pushing policy (unless it directly helps him). It comes down to who he appoints, who he listens to, and if they basically can get him to do whatever they want.
  16. Yep. I have absolutely no idea what's going to happen in the next 4 years, but I can guarantee that Trump is not going to abandon the military industrial complex. Maybe he'll change where the weapons are being sent based on who made a joke at his expense, but they'll still be moving the merch.
  17. Johnny likes to forget that he was (unfortunately) doxxed, and we know what he looks like.
  18. I probably fit in better on this website. You probably fit in better on texags. It is what it is.
  19. I always love how quickly Pimphand's posts go off the fucking rails. Not an unreasonable position to take. There are rational points to be discussed in there.
  20. I get satisfaction from knowing that every time Macklemore opens his mouth about politics in public--and you know he's the kind of douchebag that does it all the fucking time--everyone just starts saying "uh huh" on tuned out repeat, looking around, checking their phones, tapping their feet, pretending they have a watch on their wrist, just hoping he'll pick up on a single social cue to stop talking. Even those with similar voter patterns walk away saying, "holy shit, what a nutjob." I know a few Macklemores myself.
  21. It's the honeymoon phase. Let people talk and unity and giving you a chance before you, you know, open your mouth.
  22. Guilty as charged.
  23. Listen, I don't want to tell you how to live your life, but, for your sanity, abandon any hope of Trump every "getting what's coming to him." We'll get through this next 4 years, but there's definitely no satisfying conclusion waiting for us.
  24. Whether it was politically smart to pursue and whether suspected criminals, regardless of stature, should be put to trial if the evidence warrants it are two completely separate arguments, you agree?
