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.

bighairymike: ...And when an uncommitted voter looks at the border mess and concludes that issue is more likely to be solved under Trump than Biden...

Umm, what?

Trump promised a southern border wall paid for by Mexico. FAILED.

Trump promised an infrastructure bill. FAILED.

Trump promised healthcare to replace the ACA. FAILED.

Trump promised to bring back manufacturing. FAILED.

Trump promised to grow the economy by 4%. FAILED.

Trump promised to renegotiate the Iran deal. FAILED.

Trump promised to remove all undocumented immigrants. FAILED.

Trump promised to bring down the trade deficit. FAILED.

Trump promised to bring back coal. FAILED.

Anyone who believes Trump will solve immigration is an idiot. If the bill that will be introduced next week is discarded by Johnson at the direction of Trump, you certainly won't see cooperation or compromise by democrats should, God forbid, Trump retake the White House.
