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.

Russia, Russia, Russia. The email lady was right: with Trump, all roads lead to Russia.

In his readout from his call today with Daddy Putin, Mad King Donald reported that they had a "good conversation, but not a conversation that will lead to immediate Peace" (here's my shocked face: and that Putin told him "he will have to respond to the recent attack on the airfields."

Mad King Donald did not suggest that retaliation would lead to American sanctions against Russia or that America would consider retaliation a trigger for America to send arms to Ukraine... because Mad King Donald does not see Russia as an adversary in Ukraine but as an ally in his desire to cement a deal to keep nuclear weapons out of Iran, noting that "President Putin suggested that he will participate in the discussions with Iran and that he could, perhaps, be helpful in getting this brought to a rapid conclusion."

Well, now, it's not like anyone with an IQ above the average Trump White House sycophant ever thought Mad King Donald would impose new sanctions on the man with the Pee Pee tape, right?

Oh wait, alleged Pee Pee tape.

Anyway, any hope that Mad King Donald would impose sanctions on Russia to bring an end to its invasion of Ukraine, much like Robert Palmer and Alison Krause sang, is pretty much Gone, Gone Gone, Done Moved On.
