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.

Two individuals needed medical attention during the Trump rally in North Carolina this afternoon -- one reportedly requiring CPR -- and they still had a better day than Dementia Don.

Interviewing rallygoers before the event, a ten-year-old boy told a reporter: “Let’s put Fani and Nikki in jail.” He mispronounced "Fani," of course. Evidently they start 'em young and nasty in North Carolina.

As a sign of what was to come, the man leading the Pledge of Allegiance got the words wrong, then the woman signing the National Anthem also forgot the words.

Trump told the crowd that America was great "three years ago."

Umm, well, sure: Joe Biden was president three years ago.

Trump said, "We will expel the wallmongerers."

Rather than say "migrant crime," Trump said "migrant kime."

Trump called Mark Robinson, GOP candidate for North Carolina Governor, “MLK Jr. on steroids.” Robinson, a Holocaust denier, has said that “so many freedoms were lost during the Civil Rights Movement,” and referred to the movement as the “‘so-called’ Civil Rights Movement.”

Robinson wants to make abortion illegal under any circumstances, beginning with conception.

Trump could not pronounce "Venezuela."

In the most glaring brain freeze moment, Trump said: "Just recently heard that Saudi Arabia and Russia will be re— be— do— <befuddled slurring>, ooaahhhh. X (Twitter): Acyn on X: "Trump short circuits again LOL" / X

BTW, clips of every slur, stammer, garble, and word salad are available of Twitter.

Jeez, he's not even under the pressure of a debate stage. He's got almost nine months of campaigning ahead and if today is any indication, he's not going to make it to November.
