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.

But reporting suggests that some republicans have told Jordan he'll never be Speaker and others are urging him to officially withdraw. As of now though, he's still maneuvering to be Speaker.

One can only hope that there is enough common sense, common decency, on the right side of the aisle to know that an election denying Trump cultist can only worsen the hostility of the willingly misinformed MAGA movement.
The MAGA movement emboldens white supremacists, neo-nazis, and assorted bigots. These hate groups no longer lurk beneath the oil slick of the Tea Party and MAGA. They have surfaced, proudly demonstrating their hatred, distributing Nazi leaflets, shooting up the occasional temple, attacking the rights of women, LGBT people, migrants, and the half of America that exists anywhere to the left of Attila the Hun*.

*"Attila the Hun was very right-wing, even compared with other Huns, who were, as a rule, advocates of small government, school choice, and beheading. Attila first came to public attention when he issued his "Contract With Mongolia," which called for lower taxes, ending state subsidies for unfunded federal mandates, the pillaging of Scythia, and an end to collective bargaining. His decision to invade western Europe was motivated in part by a desire to dismantle the welfare state, and in part by a desire to rape government employees. Though Attila was in many respects a social conservative, he was also an advocate of postnatal abortion. After retiring from politics, he worked as an executive at Koch Industries, and appeared on Dancing With the Stars."
