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.

To be fair, it really isn't on Trump. It's on the right-wing.


IMHO, that's a distinction without a difference.

It's on Fat Don and the 'vangies/white christian nationalists/bigots/racists/corporatists who backed Trump because they knew he was an amoral puppet whose primary concern was becoming a political 'strongman.'

It's no secret that Leonard Leo//Federalist Society named Fat Don's judicial picks while Fat Don played golf and spewed that narcissistic word salad to his adoring MAGAts. It's no coincidence they offered up 91% white nominees, 81% of whom are men, 100% of whom are anti-choice, opposed to women's rights and rights for minority cultural groups, non-christians, etc.

It's on all of them, and you know what.... I get the impression the people in this story (the 'tortured' family) are republican "good christians' who still do not understand the horror show they have set in motion by supporting anti-choice slates.
