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.

"If Iran doesn’t FULLY OPEN, WITHOUT THREAT, the Strait of Hormuz, within 48 HOURS from this exact point in time, the United States of America will hit and obliterate their various POWER PLANTS, STARTING WITH THE BIGGEST ONE FIRST!" Trump said in a post on Truth Social.

Brilliant! </sarcasm>

The U.S. bombs Iran’s power plants.

Iran says if we’re going down, we’ll take as many folks down with us. So they send drones to power plants throughout the M.E.

Power supply is degraded, which is needed to pump and produce oil. This lasts for weeks? Months?

Less oil is produced which, in turn, causes prices to jump in any activity that requires oil to be used. This is just the opposite of what Trump wants to occur.

Dumbest ultimatum. Ever.

Trump’s mental acuity is, obviously, getting much worse. This is 100% on the Republican Party which has the power to rein in Trump, but is too chicken shit to act.

Everything Trump touches dies.
