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.

California, Canada, Greenland, Panama...and now the evil California demorats led by "Newscum" and a black lady mayor as the DEI component. All distractions, things to keep MAGA united in hatred .. all part of Trump's MAGA kayfabe. He needs to keep MAGA hatred focused so they don't question his inability to lower the price of eggs. ($15- for 18 at the store yesterday).

"MAGA was never an ideological movement so much as a vehicle to pull together different constituencies in order to get Trump elected president. Since members of those constituencies have little in common, that effort centers around creating a false world that demonizes Democrats and insists they have created a dangerous world that is biased against MAGA. The only one who can stand against them, the story goes, is Trump, who is being persecuted for his defense of his supporters. That narrative has helped MAGAs to find common ground in their defense of Trump and his cronies and their support for Trump’s vows to retaliate against those he considers his enemies."
