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.

That’s definitely the party line.

No, that's called reality.

vp Vance meeting with leader of AfD in Germany

So? You realize they're likely to be a big part of the coalition government in the next election, right?

SecState Rubio meeting in Saudi Arabia with Lavrov to divide up remains of Ukraine

You missed the point. If Zelensky sues for peace, it's an admission of defeat on his part.

Trump castigating (former?) allies- Canada, Great Britain, Germany

Canada, the UK and Germany need to pull their heads out. Appearing to blame the Ukraine for starting the war was dumb, I grant you that.

while some here in this country continue to hang onto the idea that Donald Trump is actually doing what is good for America

Maybe because it is.

Look, you need to get with the idea that while you may not be interested in global conflict, global conflict is interested in you.

Putin is a sideshow. The main event is in Beijing.
