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.

Balmer also shared multiple left-wing anti-capitalist posts on his Facebook, and his home appears to have been foreclosed last year, according to court documents.

That's what you fixate on? Balmer has a long history of hating democrats and Biden. From cnn.com - Pennsylvania governor arson what we know hnk

In his interview with police, Balmer admitted to “harboring hatred” towards Shapiro, the affidavit said, without elaborating on reasons for those feelings. Balmer also said he knew it was possible Shapiro and others were home when the fire started, the document said.

“Balmer was asked specifically what he would have done if Governor Shapiro found him inside of his residence, to which (Balmer) advised he would have beaten him with his hammer,” the affidavit reads.

Balmer had expressed disdain for former President Joe Biden, also a Democrat, on social media multiple times since 2021. In one post that January, Balmer wrote in part, “Biden supporters shouldn’t exist. Where were you his first run? Well aware of the trash he is.”

In September 2021, Balmer posted a meme critical of the Biden administration’s handling of the US withdrawal from Afghanistan. The meme shows Biden in a car with text that reads, “Get in, loser. We’re leaving Afghanistan.” The next image shows Biden appearing to drive off, with text that says, “*Drives off without you*.”
