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.

And the sherrif of Portage County, about 200 miles from Springfield, published a note to his Facebook page:

---------------
When people ask me.. What's gonna happen if the Flip - Flopping, Laughing Hyena Wins??
I say.. write down all the addresses of the people who had her signs in their yards! Soo when the Illegal human "Locust" (which she supports!) Need places to live...We’ll already have the addresses of the their New families...who supported their arrival!"
---------------


A story in the Huffington Post elaborates:

-----------
Portage County Commissioner Tony Badalamenti, who, like Zuchowski, is a Republican, was so angered by the post that he resigned from the county’s Republican Central Committee, saying in a Facebook video that "this is not the leadership I want to be part of."

He added: "[Zuchowski] posted that we should all copy down the addresses of the people that display political signs which are different from our beliefs. It scares people. It’s called bullying, from the highest law enforcement official in Portage County."
-----------




If it wasn't clear before, this is another sign that problems in the Republican Party are not Trumpian. They pre-date Trump. Trump was just an inevitable selection of figurehead by a party already rotten to the core.


WTH
