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 hates the people his supporters hate, and that’s all that matters. All the rest is rationalization." ~MisterFungi

I don't believe he hates the people his supporters hate.

In his rarified life he doesn't interface with 'those people' except as an employer. Hotel staff. Resort staff. Gardeners. Construction workers. He appreciates them as they provide a valuto him.

What Trump does well is PANDER; to the haters of 'others,' to the 2A zealots, to the christian warriors. Trump expresses hate simply to get votes.

Actually hating or enabling and empowering haters; I don't know which is worse.
