I keep having to remind myself that "Trump Derangement Syndrome" isn't the term for whatever the hell is wrong with Trump himself. (Every accusation etc.)

I don't think anyone is saying that Trump is going to actively go to war with Venezuela. Because he has no reason to do that. We're saying that, sure, the Alien Enemies Act officially can only be invoked against countries we're at war with, and we're not at war with Venezuela or anyone else at...

I'm sure they're working on that too.

OK, but then what? All of Congress is now in prison. Are they also out of a job? Do we hold emergency elections to replace them? They can't do their job from prison either.

No, we made Nazis illegal in Germany when we briefly took away their right to self-govern and took control in their stead. And then we refused to give it back unless they agreed to keep that rule in particular. It's an important distinction that has serious implications for our future if indeed...

Does Congress have quorum rules? Could every single Democrat simply refusing to show up for work for the next two years do anything worthwhile?

It would definitely take a complete overthrow of the current government system and a new Constitution to make any sort of guarantee to that effect.

Are you sure the people you're arguing with are even real, and not bots? The first reply seemed to be unclear on who "she" even is, and responded as if you were talking about Kamala Harris somehow.

Much of value would, in fact, be gained. It'd take out Trump and what's left of Tesla's reputation in a single moment, not to mention lead to a lot of suspicion that Musk set it up on purpose to get rid of the only person still above him in the pecking order.

A lot more Trumpers are well-off or at least comfortably middle class than you might think. They're the ones buying $50,000 pickup trucks that they only use to drive to the supermarket and church, after all. And for those below that income bracket, there's always the ever-growing supply of used...

I'd be shocked to see him slumming it in anything smaller than a limo, either. I don't know what the turnaround time would be to develop their own version of The Beast, but obviously I wouldn't be opposed to them rushing it and churning out something that barely works and ends up spontaneously...

I'd still rather not deport him. He's liable to find and join one of the groups he endorses if he's sent back to the part of the world where they actually operate, and do some real damage. Here he's just another impotent fist-waver.

Then 67% of Democrats are scum. At minimum. See what I mean?

And the actual progressive left is no better, having thrown their lot in with those who want Israel wiped off the map, with a not-so-secret goal of targeting all Jews worldwide next. When the only representatives of "tolerance" are people who still have one specific marginalized group they're...

If I have to choose between letting the world burn and throwing one marginalized group under the bus to stop it from burning... gonna be honest, the burning is looking pretty tempting. Especially since "stop it from burning" has proven time and time again to be only temporary anyway before the...

Reeeeally makes me hope Trump does something to piss off a good country enough to make them want to destroy us and then take us over.

Tesla's other models do look pretty mundane, to the credit of their designers, but aside from the early Model S's they still stand out like a sore thumb because they don't have big fake grills, in a world where everyone else is giving their vehicles massive cowcatchers.

Watch it just get bought by Elon Musk or someone equally horrible.

This is why I think the easiest way to win an election is to propose to eliminate all income taxes for people making under $80K or so. Most people in that bracket would jump at the chance, and even the others would have to think long and hard about whether they really want to give that up for...

I just found out that the Kick the Cheat plushie from Homestar Runner has been brought back after 18 years, courtesy of who else but Fangamer! Naturally they made a little commercial for it too.
