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.

Put the Dems in any other 1st-world country, and they'd be centrist.

So? That's not relevant to US elections since the US is the US.

The leftists are very far left (free healthcare, shorter work weeks, expanded welfare and food assistance, environmental protections...the list goes on).

Erm, universal basic income? Free healthcare? Bernie's 32 hour work week? Do you not know your own party's positions on this stuff?

The SEAL team question was a valid question. It has been answered in the negative. Move on.**

LOL. There are loads of other threads where Shrewd Team lib is clinging to the fantasy. You should be telling them to move on.

And, no, the autocracy charge isn't "made up". It's where Trump actually implied he wanted to go (when he wished he could act like Xi without the encumberence of a Congress). And it is where Project 2025 would take us, if implemented. Even if unintentionally.

You guys keep brining up Project 2025 but have yet to uncover the Double Secret Part of The Plan that outlines where the government is taken over. Maybe you know what page that's on, because no one else seems to be able to find it.

I can only speculate why Trump did (or didn't do) what he did,

I'll take this as an admission that Trump didn't declare Martial Law during COVID and didn't act as a dictator.
