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.

Yeah. Before Trump they NEVER had any intention of doing that, amirite?

Intention- perhaps.

Imminent threat?

Not until Trump started bleating and Bibi started bombing.

Yes, yes, FOXNews has been blaring the imminent threat for weeks now.

The actual intelligence community has been more measured in its assessment.

I know. I know… who you gonna believe? The actual experts? Or a guy who doesn’t read, has skipped most of his daily intelligence briefings, and who knew better than US intelligence sources because Bibi told him Iran was getting ready to assemble a bomb?

Oh….. and that FOXNews feedback loop in which Trump watches hours of FOX everyday, then calls in to tell them what he’s gonna do… which more often than not is exactly what they suggested he do.

Our foreign policy is being guided by Faux News.

We are truly screwed and it will take a long time to unscrew us… IF we survive the remainder of Trump’s time in office.
