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.

"I think a 16 year old would understand you don't want to release a picture of Classified documents."

Never underestimate the willingness of a Cultist to play dumb if needed.

It is no different than the fact that the FBI did the exact same thing when taking documents in the Biden and Pence situations. Anyone smarter than a 5th grader would realize that if Trump was treated the exact same way as Biden and Pence, it is pretty standard operating procedure and isn't part of some grand conspiracy to get him.

The Cultists want it to be a grand conspiracy though so they play dumb to any fact that would blow that up.

I never understood the allure of playing dumb to evidence that counters my beliefs.
