or...you could take out a loan and buy one. https://www.intuit.com/solutions/education/resources/calculators/auto-loan/ You could even live out of one of those ugly flammable minimalist pup tent pieces of crap. and you'd be throwing musk a lifesaver.

They don’t care. It isn’t about right and wrong to cultists and morons. Trump makes them feel good. They don’t own stocks or work for the government ( or at small).

That's funny! I prefer the term thick pecs. It happens.

the best scenario is to be dominant but respected and admired. The US is neither of those things in the eyes of our past allies.

Canada has no say? I suspect they could easily find allies to help fend off an imperialist attack by the US. To suggest invasion is just ignorant. where are we getting aluminum? you supposedly teach. A noble profession but one without much autonomy. Even parents are your bosses I was the founding partner of my practice. I can assure you I was the most dominant there.

This was just at his car wash. Graphex wash is $30

BS. where are we going to get Aluminum from? China? Mexico? The US imports aluminum from Canada ($11.22 billion), China ($2.74 billion), and Mexico ($1.95 billion) while the top Aluminum Importers and Buyers in the US include Dubal America Inc You seem almost gleeful at the thought of dominating our neighbors. f'in immoral fascist. an actuary might estimate his longevity as only a couple years. One can hope. And there are plenty of brave, decent Americans left. Just very few on the right.

I think demographics provide important insights. here are some from the WSJ. https://images.dowjones.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/183/2018/05/09164150/WSJ.com-Audience-Profile.pdf Doesn't meet my definition of mainstream. Do you disagree?

yup, you were sucking off @T master teat. Shame on you for investing in US companies.

top read piece in WSJ today. From an analyst at a conservative think tank, this is disturbing “On Friday, I would have said I thought the administration was worried about their policies really slowing down the economy, and they were trying to lay the groundwork for the narrative that they inherited a weakening economy,” said Michael Strain, head of economic-policy studies at the right-leaning American Enterprise Institute. More recent comments seem to have gone beyond that. “Now, there’s almost a sense that if something goes wrong in the economy, then that’s fine,” said Perkins. “That’s making people quite nervous because if you get to the point where you are pushing the economy into a recession, there is no guarantee that that’s just going to pass quickly.”

on the bright side, we're still traveling. Less crowded flights are good. https://www.cnbc.com/2025/03/11/airline-ceo-domestic-travel-demand.html Might have been good to tell the rubes what they were getting into before the election, don't ya think? Instead, he played the part of the wizard of oz. they'll figure it out in a few months.

A friend owns a car wash. Gave me a free graphex wash to try. I always do brushless but the shine is amazing even on our 9 yo outback. Supposedly lasts a year.

Still see the hawk. My dogs bark at it when it circles above. Beautiful bird. A kestrel has now taken up residence. Reportedly ferocious but also preyed on by other bird predators. Perhaps I’ll change my name again.

Have you tried carbon wax? Wasn’t impressed with ceramic but carbon shined better than anything I’ve seen. This looks fantastic. I see many restored trucks from that era. Vettes, cobras, nissanz z’s, Honda s2000’s, Audi tt’s…just a few of my personal favorites.

Not for you, apparently. Not a surprise yes, many. Old bathtub Porsches are lovely. Some of the 50s US cars are works of art. Many, many more.

Maybe among your crowd...but we really don't care about them. Neither does trump, actually.

it's all for amusement, dummy. We're not going to change policy here. We could possibly influence some neutral readers but there aren't any that post here. So which of these activities is he accused of? I don't believe that has been made public. please link if you are aware. At any rate, he's being flown back to NY from Louisiana for a hearing soon. More to come. If it was settled law, there wouldn't be a hearing.

the first amendment (freedom of speech, freedom of religion)). There's a palestinian in jail for speaking out against Israel. https://www.yahoo.com/news/ny-student-protester-held-immigration-152740592.html?fr=sycsrp_catchall New York Civil Liberties Union President Donna Lieberman called his deportation "targeted retaliation and an extreme attack on the First Amendment."

I sure hope not. While beautiful and friendly, consumer goods are in very short supply, mostly due to embargoes and isolationism. After the revolution, they did look for help. The US didn't offer any. The Soviets did, in a very big way and had huge influence. When Gorbachev dissolved the Soviet Union, they lost most of the support. And have struggled mightily since. Isolationism is crushing them but it's largely not self imposed. In our case, it is.

Trump said he's buying a Tesla this morning. Like him, I just don't think the cars have aged well, much like the Ford Taurus. Musk lacks a certain sense of style. But I'm sure Donnie will enjoy driving his Tesla on the greens of Mar-O-Lago.

WSJ has a nice piece on consumer sentiment. It's paywalled. basically says low and middle earners are maxed out on credit cards and will likely be forced to slow buying. Higher earners are concerned about a coming recession and falling stock market...and will likely decrease spending. Not a good combo.

Uh oh. This is not good. https://www.msn.com/en-us/money/economy/ar-AA1ADH6d

Don’t alienate our closest trade partners and allies. Don’t get into a tariff trade war. those would be a good start. This will work for another month on the MAGAs with any sense The senseless ones still believe an election was stolen. They’re write offs.
