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.

Old habits are hard to break. Donald Thee Fascist has spent a lifetime as a rapey misogynist so it's no surprise that he thinks he should be able to tell women he's going to make their decisions for them, and that it's his right to "protect" women "whether the women like it or not."

Nikki Haley, who served as Mr. Trump’s United Nations ambassador before challenging him in the Republican primaries this year, criticized the recent sexist and crude attacks lodged at Ms. Harris during an interview on Fox News on Tuesday, warning that it made women “uncomfortable.”

“That is not the way to win women,” Ms. Haley said. “That is not the way to win people who are concerned about Trump’s style.”


Trump and his surrogates have called vice president Harris “lazy as hell,” “a DEI hire,” “slow” and having a “low IQ.” They've said Harris is a “stupid person” and have asked: “Does she drink? Is she on drugs?”

An article today titled “Trump’s Promise to Young Men: I Am Your Retribution Against Women,"
details how he and his MAGA allies are ramping up the sexism and misogyny as part of a closing message that they will restore men to their rightful place — of total control over women.

So Nikki, Nikki, Nikki. That old feeble geezer was a sexist pig when you endorsed him but now the overt sexism is a selling point for the Trump campaign. He's proud that he "killed" Roe and that women are suffering and dying because of him.

After repeatedly shouting that he should never be in the White House again — you called him “unhinged” and “diminished” — now that you've found yourself covered in pig shit in his carnival of misogyny, you think there's some magical way to suddenly become clean again.

Sorry, Nikki, that stink never goes away.
