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.

What a load of horsesh!t. Trump wanted to invite the Taliban to Camp David, for crying out loud.

What's that got to do with Putin rolling tanks into the Ukraine? Oh, right. Not a thing.

And Biden just handed Afghanistan to the Taliban without even so much as a how-do-you-do.

I have to give you credit. The Biden admin has been 1 predictable farce after another from the get-go, yet here you go stepping into the van.

Let's see what else you have:

Who said: 'I started the process, all the troops are coming home, they (Biden) couldn't stop the process. 21 years is enough. They (Biden) couldn't stop the process, they (Biden) wanted to but couldn't stop the process.'

Who could have put more troops in and didn't? Who left billions of dollars and thousands of Americans behind? Whose negligence and chaotic retreat resulted in several deaths?
That'd be Biden.

Biden wasn't constrained in the slightest by Doha. You may or may not know this, but every President can make decisions on his/her own. Except this one, of course.

And isn't it interesting that you guys want to elect a president who'll immediately give Ukraine to Russia, fire every government employee who refuses to sign a pledge to Der Trump, and will leave NATO, among a wide range of other anti-American actions.

Which candidate is this?
You should talk to real people, instead of the out of phase voices that come from...somewhere. Seriously, guy. Enough already.
