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.

Dope1: It’s more like MACA libs- “Make America crappy”. They’re doing a bang up job.

Right. Record job growth which has outperformed any previous president. Lowest unemployment rate (4.11%) in decades and highest real hourly wages on record. Record high equity markets. Record number of insured Americans. Rapid disinflation unmatched in modern history. American economy has the fastest post-pandemic recovery of the G-7 nations. Lowest inflation of the G-7 nations. Cut child poverty in half. Families net worth is the highest on record. Violent crimes, especially homicides, have fallen. NATO expanded. Infrastructure bill passed. 800,000 manufacturing jobs added. Ready to sign the strictest border bill in modern history until Trump Thee Fascist killed it.

Yeah, "crappy" stuff.

Dope1: Love how they call half the country a bunch of Nazis and the. [You having a Trump moment there?] Turn around and wonder why political rhetoric is so bad. I guess some people are *that* stupid.

You're mistaking us for Trump Thee Fascist's running mate, who said: Trump "may be America's Hitler."

Oh, and Trump Thee Fascist himself who has repeatedly called Harris a communist, a socialist, a Marxist, and a fascist, and who has repeatedly said that Jews who don't vote for him should have their heads examined.

The ones who need their heads examined are the republicans who spent years insisting Hillary Clinton should never have been allowed to run for president and should be in prison for mishandling classified documents but refuse to hold Trump Thee Fascist to the same standard for doing 100X worse.

Sound familiar? Or have you finally found that spine?
