The week's question
In December 2024, in the thread "Re: BRK: Why Not XOM?", BreckHutHigh asked the members: "What about the long road trips with kids?" This week it is put to everyone again. The button below opens the small thread re-asking it - read what others have said so far, then give your own answer as an ordinary reply.

Earlier Sunday, JD Vance was arguing to Jake Tapper that Trump Thee Fascist was being taken out of context and misrepresented about his "enemy within" remarks, that he only meant violent rioters who burned down buildings, not Pelosi or Schiff or other Americans.

Last night at what is being described as "A Closing Carnival of Grievances and Racism," "Trump fills Madison Square Garden with anger, vitriol and racist threats," and "Trump’s MSG event turns into ugly racist rally, speakers insult Puerto Ricans, Blacks, Jews," here's what Trump said:

TRUMP: "A massive, vicious, radical left machine that runs today's democrat party. They're just vessels. In fact, they're perfect vessels because they'll never give 'em a hard time, they'll do what ever they want. I know many of them. It's just this amorphous group of people. But they're smart and they're vicious. And we have to feat them, and when I say the enemy from within the other side goes crazy, becomes a sound, Oh, how can he say? No, they've done very bad things to this country, they are indeed the enemy from within."

That MSG rally was the biggest example of craziness, hostility, and racism there since 1939 and I didn't even write posts about Stephen Miller screaming: "America is for Americans" or the comment about Blacks carving watermelons for Halloween.

Man, you're voting for that shit? WTF is wrong with you?

So much for "The New Colossus," hey?
