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.

So your choice is likely to be Gavin Newsom. The whitewashing of his horrid run as California governor - a tenure that has seen his state lose population for the first time ever - is going to be glorious. Epic gaslighthing to a scale way beyond when the liberal media tried to convince us that Biden was mentally competent and that It Was a Good Thing Kamala Harris was selected. And that Harris ran a remarkable campaign in only 170 days. Or something.

Oh, I forgot the other reason it won't be Pritzker: he's far too unattractive. The democrats have always been the party of shallow appeals to vanity and the bottom end of Maslow's Hierarchy of Needs, and as such they always go for the smooth-talking, good looking slick types. Worked-over looking dudes like Pritzker need not apply.

The democrats are an organized train wreck...and pretty much always have been as long as I've been alive. They value style over substance and appeal to the most base instincts and feelings. Trash.
