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.

Last night on Truth Social, Orange Jesus said that "MSNBC (MSDNC) uses FREE government approved airwaves, and yet it is nothing but a 24 hour hit job on Donald J. Trump and the Republican Party for purposes of ELECTION INTERFERENCE.

Umm, Orange Jesus doesn't seem to know the difference between broadcast and cable networks. MSNBC is on cable, which does not use government funding.

Orange Jesus went on to say that the "government" should come down hard on MSNBC and make them pay for their illegal political activity. By describing their coverage as "illegal," isn't he implying he will criminally prosecute the station and its reporters?

And isn't that, well, fascism?

I'm betting when Trump next gets on the campaign trail and tells his audience he's going to prosecute MSNBC, those idiots will cheer and wail.

In another Truth Social post, Trump wrote that he would repeal and replace Obamacare. He actually wrote that he would give Americans better healthcare, something he promised in 2016 and throughout his presidency: "Getting much better Healthcare than Obamacare for the American people will be a priority of the Trump Administration. It is not a matter of cost, it is a matter of HEALTH. America will have one of the best Healthcare Plans anywhere in the world. Right now it has one of the WORST!"

Seems to me he tried that before and failed miserably.

Trump failed miserably because he's a miserable failure.

But the stupid suckers love their Orange Jesus.
