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.

Trump has clearly said that if he is re-elected, his focus will be on getting revenge against his political enemies. He has said he wants to be a dictator. He has never said he will accept the results of the election, after being asked the question pretty unambiguously. He didn't accept the results of the 2020 election, choosing instead to attempt to subvert the results by any means possible. These are not just anti-democratic things, they are anti-American things. They rip to shreds the ideals spelled out in the Constitution.

This is exactly the opposite of what Trump stated in his interview with Hannity. He was actually very articulate and stated that he was not interested in revenge. That pursuing revenge would be bad for America. There is evidence that he believes this because he gave Hillary a pass the first time. He also said that he was prepared to go to jail to make his points.

In the end I believe that Biden is as big a liar as Trump. However, in Biden's situation he has highjacked the whole justice department with him down his path of lies. I no longer trust any information coming from almost any government agency. Look at the Biden PC crap. High ranking government employees openly lying because they are more interested in winning than Truth.

I may vote for Trump just because he will free the Jan 6 "victims" that have been prosecuted by the Biden team. These jail terms are not commensurate with the "crimes". At least he will address a big injustice IMO.

A few clear thinking bright people supporting Trump.

Bill Ackman, Steve Schwarzman, Chamath Palihapitaya, David Sacks.
