Thankfully you never had to live through the transition from horses to cars.Horses fend for themselves and supply free gas rather than needing it. They don't need oil changes and don't get flat tires.They can find their way home without a map.

Even NASCAR is going EV. Just introduced today is the 1300 hp prototype:

Yachts are starting to replace sails. 20 delivered, 30 in production as at Oct. 2023.

Above is a Lightyear EV. The hood roof and rear hatch are all solar cells, about 54 sq. ft. with a .19 drag coefficient. The company went broke and was refloated with the objective a a $40k euro model to replace the $240k original model above. The solar cells recharge 43.5 miles a day in optimum conditions and 388 miles fully charged. So if your commute is less than that you don't have to plug it in at all. Motor trend article. Company Website. The company recently cancelled plans for the model 2 $40k replacement. So perhaps in the future some other company may take up the project again.

Just the GOP priming the base for upcoming elections. This time they have judicial license.

The US stock markets went up 17% under Trump. This was after his massive tax cuts for corporations. Under Biden stocks are up 40% and corporations want less regulation. I'll paraphrase Brent, "greed is good".

Commercial boat captains don't need licenses or oversight. Wetlands should be all paved over or sold to unsuspecting homeowners. Got it.

Regulations on dumping pollution, keeping bankers from making foolish loans to deadbeat friends, corruption of the state and anti-competitive behavior. None of that is necessary in a dictatorship after all, it works so well in Russia and China.

When big Dem. $$$ donors tell him its time to ride into the sunset.

^^^^^^^^^^THIS^^^^^^^ John McCain went under the wheels of the MAGA bus and so would Tammy.

Happy 4th. On a sadder note its exactly 200 days until an admitted dictator might be sworn in. Oh well 248 years was a good run.

Isn't it getting dubbed?

Actually Canada won a war against the US in 1812. But as a open friendly type country they likely wouldn't mind if Americans celebrated that as well. Y'all can bring some bourbon and I'm sure they will provide some rye whiskey.

Slowest start to Atlantic hurricane season…

Unfortunately with two wars going on and a famine in Africa. There will be fewer donations available to rebuild these small Caribbean island nations. Small tourist hotels which is a large part of the income and jobs market will be hard hit. The residents left with few resources to rebuild. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=N7ce0TUdiGc Hurricane Beryl Landfall Carriacou -
You're welcome. Yes democracies will survive from election to election. The whole trump episode in US history reminds me of the American politician, Frederic R. Coudert, who quipped in 1939.” 'May you live in interesting times."
-
Yes, America will survive. That is an excellent post and you're reading the entire document reinforces my attitude that you're the only intelligent republican in this forum. Dialogue? The nomination hearings of the Trump SC appointees shed no light on their current string of outrage upon the state. Roe v Wade, Chevron and presidential immunity have completely upended law and precedent. Stare decisis was promised by all and immediately thrown in the trash by the new appointees. Last night Trump posted on Truth Social that there should be military tribunals to try Liz Cheney for treason. A concept thats completely unhinged. So where would the constraints on his actions be during a second presidency?
-
Ahhhhh! the golden banana. Mr. trump did you receive $1 trillion from a Panama bank account for withdrawing from NATO and giving Russia the locations of every Ukrainian armed forces depo? Trump: I don't have to answer that question because it goes to my motives. Besides bribery is now legal:The US supreme court just basically legalized bribery Amazing how Trump managed to craft the court in his own image in only one term. Imagine what he can do with another play at the slots.
-
That is well stated and all true. Unfortunately the general public doesn't think like an engineer. Where facts and logic guide decisions. In this era few seem to be able to think about the nation over the price of butter. Neither trump nor Biden seem to be able to present a coherent vision of a better life for people or the nation.
-
Its all about the corporate tax cuts.So as Brent drives past the homeless people on his way to pick up the rent cheques on his revenue properties. He can relish the warm and fuzzy feeling knowing that what's his is his and what they don't have, well too bad. If they only worked harder, had less children and got better inheritances.

trump----------convicted of fraud many times. trump----------convicted of rape. Biden lost a tv debate to trump because trump trump----------convicted felon 34 times. couldn't stop lying. 79 on election day. 81 on election day.

It seems as if you and Joe have a crisis of confidence. This might help. "Former President Barack Obama, who recovered from a disastrous debate performance to win re-election in 2012, publicly backed President Biden after his poor performance in Thursday’s debate against former President Donald J. Trump. Mr. Obama also sought to allay concerns among Democrats about keeping Mr. Biden as their presidential nominee. “Bad debate nights happen,” he said in a social media post. “Trust me, I know. But this election is still a choice between someone who has fought for ordinary folks his entire life and someone who only cares about himself.”
-
Fine defeatist attitudes if there ever was two. A leader surrounds themselves with the best advisors, listens to their council and then makes decisions. Even if Biden becomes incapacitated he has a qualified VP. trump on the other hand will surround himself with the worst of the worst. In addition if the GOP seizes control of the government. With the Chevron decision and a USSC that see's itself as law unto itself. It will gut every environmental and social law- precedent ever made. The US will become one giant pseudo-christian, AR-15 a-totin, corporate free for all.
-
The bigger problem for democrats is how a weak Biden could drag down other democrats in the election. What if trump lifts up other MTGs in the GOP ticket? If they then get another SC appointment? If rump bans free and independent media, press services? Should Canada and Mexico start on border walls? A second trump term is akin to a neutron bomb. The physical US will remain but the population will be brain dead or physically altered. I thought you were an "independent" and not a trump sycophant?
-
My thoughts exactly.
-
Agree Agree He has already stated a policy. Revenge and a dictatorship. It seems as if there could be a old man as president who has to rely upon his wife and advisors to make good decisions. Or there could be an emboldened trump lying more, starting fights and battles everywhere. Using his authority to strike at anyone he sees as disloyal. With no regard for morals or the law. He will be surrounded by a dozen Stephen Millers with everyone on steroids. In other political news, Oklahoma has announced that the bible and ten commandments are to be deeply integrated into all school curriculums.
