Eh, That sort of time-travel wouldn't allow for effective immortality, though. A combination of telomere restoration and nano-tech cellular repair might. If you can somehow manipulate spacetime to that kind of degree, you can likely figure out a way to rebuild telomeres and develop advanced nano machines as well.

That's literally what I'm saying: if you have that much energy to spend: there are better and more efficient things you could do with it.

Time travel: it's a hell of a flex, but ultimately just stupid.

Fallacy of the Unbounded Middle?

If you can put a man on the moon, you can achieve immortality. Until you actually put a man on the moon and find out that being someone who can do one difficult thing does not make you someone who can do another difficult thing.

Trump spokesperson reverses, says ex-president didn’t buy Glock at South Carolina gun store

Nope, they need to keep charging him every time he breaks the law. Considering how he would have had to have lied to get the gun, why not charge him with the exact same thing as hunter biden!

I don't care what takes him off the street at this point, somebody take off the kid gloves and lock him up already. If anyone else had done a fraction of the jive he's pulled, they would've been behind bars years ago.

What I expect is that he never did buy the Glock because he has no interest in handling a weapon and his campaign just thought it would be a great optic for gun nuts to see that he is a gun nut just like them. But they fell over themselves and didn't consider that it was impossible. He probably really is innocent, as far as gun laws are concerned, but I hope some proper avenue opens to scream the message that he is only cynically pretending to want a Glock.

Definitely need video of a reporter asking him if he bought the Glock and then following up with why his campaign pretended he bought the Glock.

Yeah there is no way he actually bought the Glock. He has that "Do I have to hold this? How do I hold this?" look all over his face. He doesn't like guns. He likes the gun lobby because they like him, but that's as far as it goes.

Trump likes the gun lobby because they're rich, and that's literally it.

Hell, even if he did GET the glock, there's absolutely no way he paid for it. His superpac would have covered it. Which means the gun nuts bought him a glock.

He can't receive it and I believe the store knows that. It was just a campaign stunt that wasn't thought out.

I wish he was doing debates! It would be really great if every time he brought up Hunter Biden's gun charge someone brought this up. How incensed can Trump really be that Hunter broke gun purchase laws if he pretended to do it himself?

Hunter has actually handed the Republicans a paradox in the 2024 campaign. They all really want to jump on what feels like a weak spot for Biden, but they also all really want to relax those same laws....

If he went to a debate, he'd just incriminate himself more on all of his many ongoing trials and investigations, and almost certainly violate all of the court orders about threatening remarks. While I eagerly await someone finally locking him up, his lawyers aren't quite that stupid. Plus, we all know the cult will jump on any pretense of an order to harass and threaten anyone involved in those trials , so for their own sake I kinda hope he stays away.

Fun fact, while typing cult above, my auto-fill came up with MAGA unprompted. Even my phone knows.

Right. And this one hurts him more then any federal indictment could.

Ironbite-cause it's a hit to his brand.

Engoron is slated to hold a non-jury trial starting Oct. 2 before deciding on those claims and any punishments he may impose. James is seeking $250 million in penalties and a ban on Trump doing business in New York, his home state.

Seems like he's not banned yet, but may be if the judge decides that's an appropriate punishment.
