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.

albaby1: Again, they think that all the many changes that were made to election rules were fraud - all the administrative changes in response to COVID, the last minute shifts in election procedure, the adjustments that were made to longstanding rules made under emergency powers. They believe all of that was cheating, rigging, and fraud.

And which never would have been an issue if Trump had simply done what every losing presidential candidate in U.S. history had done before him: graciously admitted defeat, urged his followers to support the new administration, and, as an outgoing (loser) president, committed himself to the peaceful transfer of power.

And you've mentioned the administrative changes in response to COVID a few times as an excuse for the stupidity of the cult without also pointing out that those changes in response to a public health crisis did not advantage one party over the other. Well, if anything, they disadvantaged democrats, as polling places in minority communities in some red states were more likely to be closed as a result of the pandemic than those in white neighborhoods.

But now that the holidays are over, I need to go back and see why #TrumpStinks, #DiaperDon, and #TrumpSmellsBad have been trending for the past couple of days and get the low-down on Trump's toe pads (counterbalance to his three-inch lifts or Frontotemporal Dementia... you decide).
