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.

It's as embarrassing as you would expect. I am dumber for having heard it.

A few "highlights"...

TRUMP: "We're going to be changing the name of the Gulf of Mexico to the Gulf of America."

Q: "Do you think Zuckerberg is responding to the threats you've made to him in the past?"
TRUMP: "Probably. Yeah. Probably."

Q: "You didn't rule out using military coercion..."
TRUMP: "Well, we need Greenland for national security purposes. People don't even know if Denmark has any legal right to it. But if they do, they should give it up."

TRUMP: "The windmills are driving the whales crazy. Obviously."

TRUMP: "No water comes out of shower. It goes drip, drip, drip. So what happens? You’re in the shower ten times as long. You know no water comes out of the faucet."

TRUMP: "Jack Smith, he executes people. He shouldn't be allowed to execute people."

TRUMP on Biden's offshore drilling ban: "625 million acres. That's like the whole ocean!"

TRUMP on gas heaters compared to electric: "The heat is much better, it's a much better heat. As the expression goes, you don't itch." (The first American president with the courage to take on itchy heat! Facepalm.)
