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 for what? So Trump could hijack the USA and turn it into his own "brand" and "corporation" to use for his own profit and power grab

Hijack? More Americans voted for him than for Harris.

Truthy Social, bibles, NFTs etc were pre-election. People voted knowing he will feather his nest. In the belief that he will do something good. Like cutting taxes as he did in the first term, stopping the relentless illegal immigration, and bringing down prices. Of course he made extravagant promises, and by contrast Harris made underwhelming ones. Apart from a few savvy politicians like Jasmine Crockett and lately, Gavin Newsom ('s Twitter team); Democrats including Harris were/are mealy-mouthed ineffective mumblers. No match for Trump's politicking. The proof is in the pudding.
