    See, this would be a good time to get your constitutionally protected weapons out and start shooting at these things instead of shooting at children or moviegoers or mall shoppers.

    19-20 yr old Brisketexan woulda viewed that as an opportunity for some epic fun with firearms.  Shit, we'da camped out in a jeep, waiting for 'em to fly over, and unloaded everything we had.  Might have even made up special 10 gauge loads for the purpose.  That's just good American fun is what that is.

    Two things:

    Is there comparison stat with the opposite party field vs a president seeking reelection?

    Is the Trump figure adjusted for how much will be illegally siphoned off for the family and paying off porn stars?

    The Trump figure does NOT include donations from foreign donors/governments to entities like the NRA, Liberty University, Prager U, and other advocacy groups that will spend millions on disseminating Trump propaganda in this election cycle.

    Campaign donations are only where the action is if you're looking at people who aren't all-in on corruption.  Otherwise, campaign donations are a sideshow.  The real action is elsewhere.

  3. What I like is how Donald Trump promised to be the one to “solve the Middle East” and “get us out of all of these wars.” And he’s starting the new year by [checks notes] sending thousands of rapid-reaction troops to Iraq as our embassy is under sustained assault.

    Promises kept!
    Winning!

    New year, same bullshit. Fuck him. Fuck anyone who still supports him. He and they are a fucking cancer.

  4. Then had an orange tort. It was good, not great.

    Daughter got a mix of antipasto. Salami was great, tuna stuffed peppers were very good, mushrooms were good, olives were just ok. I did get a tuna crudo for the table that was good.

    We did 4 higher end places: Commanders, Atchafalaya, Shaya, Gianna, and Petit Grocery. And if rank them in that order. Honestly, our more pedestrian meals, like oysters at Felix’s and a muffuletta for lunch outside, were among our favorites. Hell, I loved my lunch as we left town...

  5. Saw this at a gas station Krispy Krunchy chicken display near Franklin, La yesterday...348bb2aa376cc427aa9355ccb37554e8.jpg

    What do you wanna bet it’s as good or better than the Popeyes version? I didn’t try it, as I was stuffed with fried goodness from The Shack in Houma. And was gonna get boudin balls later in Scott.

  6. Man, if only there were direct statistical evidence of what Bernie and his loyal followers would do in the case of him losing a primary!
    lol Jesus Christ

    You mean the significant enough percentage that either a) voted for Trump out of rage and protest, or b) votes for Jill Stein, or c) didn’t show up on Election Day to support the dem at all? When any one of those three groups was enough to turn the election in the crucial swing states?

    This is our concern, dude. We the people have only two choices: nominate Bernie, and re-elect Trump because we won’t get any swing voters/moderates, or don’t nominate Bernie and re-elect Trump because enough Bernie bro’s will repeat their 2016 actions. Hell, I kinda like the guy, and appreciate what he adds to the conversation, but Bernie bros have made Bernie a poison pill that will kill the chances of a Dem president no matter what happens. That sucks. And yeah, BT will scream about how that’s not what happened or what will happen, when both are true.

    God, I hate Democrats

    They know.

    It’s okay. Jill Stein is waiting for you with open arms. No broad-based party will do for you.

    Oh, and here’s my plan for coal miners: I don’t give a fuck what new job you want to do, but know that it ain’t gonna be mining coal. Coal miner is as dead a job as buffalo hunter or whaler. There’s lots of types of jobs out there. Most of them are somewhere other than Asscheese, W. Va. So, fucking go where the jobs are. I’m the only candidate who isn’t fucking lying to you or selling you an insane fantasy of either your coal job coming back or some miracle new job as robot programmer coming to Asscheese. Nothing is coming to Asscheese.

  8. What? I’ve owned a gun since I was a little kid and there is absolutely no way I’m carrying one into Church.

    Yep.
    Sorry, I’m not doing it. And I own what most folks would call an arsenal.
    I’m glad they had armed security, and dude can shoot. But the parade of armed white guys coming up at the Church of Christ...well, I wasn’t surprised. Sad that there was a shooter. Sad that the church needed armed security. Sad that there were multiple churchgoers packing. We are a broken fucking country.

    a 2020 loss kills the brand. 2024 repubs will be smart enough to box out donnie jr

    Read the story. A loss doesn’t matter. It’s about control of the base. And he’ll keep it, via twitter and rallies. Control the base, control the party. It is 100% the party of Trump now. There’s no room for anything else. He’ll make sure of it.
  10. Blue crab beignets:

    They were indeed very good.

     

    The rest of the meal was good. But didn’t blow us away.

     

    Wife and son had the burger, which WAS very good, but inconsistent execution: the boy’s was slightly undercooked, and the wife’s wasn’t served very hot. Seems that they had a plating delay.

     

    Girl and I had the turtle Bolognese. Which was good, but just didn’t blow us away.

     

    Steak tartare came highly recommended. It was ok.

     

    Desserts: daughter got a citrus torte that sounded great, but was pretty bland. Boy got a chocolate hazelnut chess pie. Good nutty chocolate flavor, couldn’t tell it was a chess pie. Wife got butterscotch pudding - THAT was great.

     

    So, mediocre review for LPG.

     

    Shaya for lunch tomorrow.

  11. They aren’t going to attack hard targets. They are going to attack population bases they see as representative of the enemy, like Walmarts in El Paso. They are terrorists, not a revolutionary army.

    That’s the most likely outlet for violence.

    Remember, these people are failures at heart, and utterly gutless cowards. Attacking innocent civilians is as brave as they’ll ever get.
  12. Yep. Paul Blart mall cop and a couple other dudes would easily stamp out any trumpkin revolution. The notion of that is simply laughable. 
    Of much greater danger is Trump waking up and using the full power of the executive branch to keep him in power after he loses the next election. While I don’t find that likely, I find that much more concerning than a bunch of dipshit trumpkins talkin’ revolution on the net. 

    The second that the Chief Justice swears in the next president, a squatter in the White House who won’t vacate for the new president becomes a physical threat to that president. The Secret Service forcing him out would be glorious.
