Drill Baby Drill...the US Politics Thread (Part 4)

Important.

Frustratingly, we lag so far behind the US in space though (as I have been harping on about in the past). And I say we here as in non-US NATO. But this is the way in general.

But speed and funding is of the essence. Most people, including politicians, seem to think they have 10 years, or at least 5. And that is maddening.

@Limiescouse. I deleted your post with that man being victim from a tiger assault. It’s really terrible. The idea that a president would reverberate this kind of abomination to the vast public is absolutely mind-blowing. But let’s not do that ourselves.

(still shaking from this…)

Yes, the fact that the UK authorities have asked that the video not be shared…and the President of the US is sharing …special.

The US is simply crossing over into the sort of banal evil that characterized the Imperial period of Rome, where an unfree people thought nothing of taking amusement from the torture and death of others.

Honestly, that is the right decision. Thank you. It’s a staggeringly sick thing to have done.

I didn’t see it, as my focus was laser and my brain didn’t capture it when I scrolled due to me coming in to post something specific and important and ignored every other post here.

But what is this ? Has Trump posted a video of a man being killed by a tiger and what was the context ?

Yeah, just raw video of the incident with his caption “don’t mess with the DJT”

My God.

Oh, it’s that incident from the zoo in the UK, Isn’t it ? From last week ?

That is absurdly vulgar.

I grieve for what this period will do the minds of Americans. Psychologically, many Americans will be at an entirely different place than they were in 2015; after this long MAGA reign.

If a Tiger attacked him he would shit himself and probably finish the Tiger off with his smell. Then again he wouldn’t need the Tiger to result in him shitting himself.

A narcissist and a psychopath or sociopath. Clearest example I know of one and it is extremely disheartening that millions of Americans do not see it. It is so overt and obvious, his narcisism and psychopathy is so visible.

I don’t like to use the term “evil”, but there is more than that in him than what we usually call “good”. The performative cruelty is shocking to me, as cruel people usually understand that they should hide their darkest urges. But he is so arrogant and narcissistic that he just does not care.

His campaign started off poorly, with people really unenthused about how poor a candidate he seemed to be. He has the credentials, but he looks bored and bores people. But since the debates started he has started kicking the shit out Collins.

Has he taken it down yet ?

It seems smaller stakes, but it is the same thing…in that yesterday Vance made a “no homo” joke in a press conference saying that he had said “I love you” to Trump, but then clarified that he meant it in a non-platonic way…he isn’t James Talarico.

We’re back to trying to get laughs for calling people gay in a derogatory way. WTF is happening.

You know he’s definitely in the closet, the couch shagger.

Is this somehow worse than if this was directed by Musk?

Beyond hoping the Dems take house and senate her and Paxton I really want to see lose.

Time we cleared out the dead wood isn’t it “I’ll serve just two terms Collins”.
