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.

A couple articles about Trump the God's interview with NBC.

After the Minneapolis shootings, Trump says his administration could use 'a softer touch' on immigration

“I learned that maybe we could use a little bit of a softer touch. But you still have to be tough,” Trump said in an Oval Office interview with “NBC Nightly News” anchor Tom Llamas. “We’re dealing with really hard criminals. But look, I’ve called the people. I’ve called the governor. I’ve called the mayor. Spoke to ‘em. Had great conversations with them. And then I see them ranting and raving out there. Literally as though a call wasn’t made.”

At the bottom of a second article about the same interview with "soft" Trump:

Fox News viewers turn on Trump as network shares major ICE update

One person said, "Trump is pulling 700 federal agents out of Minneapolis after saying we need a 'softer touch.' Is this a strategic de-escalation or is the administration finally admitting the crackdown went too far?"

"Declaring victory as Trump cowardly slinks away in defeat," another person added.

"Disagree with the president wholeheartedly. You press on until all are deported," a third wrote.

29% of Republicans want ICE to go even harder. More beatings. More blood.
