The comparison is apt, and being noted as such. They're men of totally opposite Character.

Carter had a good one, Trump doesn't.

Besides, Nulli and I were Statler and Waldorf... I was the handsome one.

I bet you are fun at parties!

Except for that part about how you miss a joke so often.

= actually trying to defeat him.

Obviously you could do it... if only anyone paid any attention to you, it would have happened already, right?

They trust Trump. He would never ever sell America out to billionaires, right?

Right??

Maybe some Antifa will attack the Capitol and stop the Certification vote!

bwahahahha!

- from the balcony.

Yes... you are so above it all. Just an observer to other people's confusion.

ahahahaha!

There is a cosmically small chance that the Trumpers in the House will finally realize that the Billionaire Tech Bros and other assorted Industry Oligarchs are Globalists, and, not really being concerned about the plight of the avg American (knowing that they will soon be replaced by Quantum AI ROBOTS!)...

Maybe Loomer and Mrs. Justice Thomas can arrange a nice French-style Madame Guillotine Party at the Capitol on the 6th, eh?

Vive la rvolution!!!

"In other words, Musk began following the practice of most of his fellow billionaires. Like them, he would go on to dedicate big bucks to Trump and other Republicans.

These billionaires are, as always, placing self over country. Like their German counterparts in the 1930s, their lust for wealth blinds them.

Their addiction to wealth accumulation overpowers any other course. We need, now more than ever, to stand up against them."

Good article

or DJT's, either

Speaking of paying lower taxes...

"Quite an about-face for someone who in 2020 voted for Biden and called Trump in private conversations a "stone-cold loser."

The reasons for that 180-degree about-face? Musk is claiming that Democrats are trying to "fill the country with undocumented immigrants." Humanity, he adds, "will never reach Mars" unless Trump triumphs.

Reasons like these amount to pure rationalization. The one and only real reason Musk supports Trump:

how much he'll save in federal taxes if Trump triumphs.

How can we be so sure? The timeline on Musk's turn from Trump skeptic to Trump champion leaves no doubt when and why Musk's political stance so abruptly and radically changed.

Back in 2021, less than a year after Musk cast his vote for Biden, House Democrats passed the Biden-backed Build Back Better budget package. That legislation included an 8 percent surtax on incomes over $25 million."

Shady JD's Trump Conversion... from "Hitler" to "My Lord!"... alone should have unnerved most Americans. His Mentor being P. Theil should also have been enough.

All the rest was him learning how to be a Show Man Carnival Barker/Con-Artist.

If MAGA ever does actually figure out that they are now paying for the Oligarchs tax cuts, we could have a nice old fashioned French Revolution against the Aristocracy Corporations.

Who love Trump as much as he loves them... not at all, but they are useful to each other; one providing the money to elect politicians that will vote however these extreme rwing Nazi-loving billionaires want, the other providing the Entertainment... er, I mean the votes.

- a lying douche bag piece of shvvt.

Anyone who really cared if someone else was that wouldn't nuzzle DHT's diapers so fondly.

= Moving to Central Florida in the late spring : )

Ocala is building homes as fast as they can, particularly south and west of town... I'm still not sure where all these people work!

But if you like refrigerator-size people, country music, swamp buggies, fishing, horses (from all over the World at the events).... an entire state run by the insurance industry and various and sundry other industries where people have discovered that politics pays better than actual good, affordable products... you'll like it here.

Good news is that most of the hurricanes miss north central FL... it's almost like there's a Force Field around horse country and the Forest.

Also helps if you like 9 mos of high heat and humidity.

But if you are talking Orlando in actual central FL, God help you, it's a people zoo.

But it's much hotter in what is now the best city in America and in FL to live... Naples.

"Florida city ranked No. 1 in US as best place to live. Hint: It's also best place to retire"

Yeah, the history.com link talks about how Japan did SO much more damage to allied forces during the last months of the war than they had in the first few years.

Man's Inhumanity to Man
by Robert Burns

Many and sharp the numerous ills
Inwoven with our frame;
More pointed still, we make ourselves
Regret, remorse and shame;
And man, whose heaven-erected face
The smiles of love adorn,
Man's inhumanity to man,
Makes countless thousands mourn.

Abbott sees how well said jackassery werks at the national level for DJT... and he's so darned jealous!

"Making love in the afternoon
With Cecilia
Up in my bedroom
I got up to wash my face
When I come back to bed
Someone's taken my place

Celia, you're breaking my heart
You're shaking my confidence daily
Oh, Cecilia, I'm down on my knees
I'm begging you please to
Come on home"

- Paul Simon

This is of course why Trump talked about the US invading other countries... to justify what Vlad and Xi and Kim want to do.

Vlad gets Ukraine, Georgia, and several other neighbors right away, with intentions towards Poland and Norway.

Xi gets Taiwan and several other islands and territories. Lil' Kim gets the nod to go take So. Korea if he can.

All justified by the US also being a predator nation.

"General Douglas MacArthur and other top military commanders favored continuing the conventional bombing of Japan already in effect and following up with a massive invasion, codenamed "Operation Downfall."

They advised Truman that such an invasion would result in U.S. casualties of up to 1 million.

In order to avoid such a high casualty rate, Truman decided " over the moral reservations of Secretary of War Henry Stimson, General Dwight Eisenhower and a number of the Manhattan Project scientists " to use the atomic bomb in the hopes of bringing the war to a quick end.

Proponents of the A-bomb"such as James Byrnes, Truman's secretary of state"believed that its devastating power would not only end the war, but also put the U.S. in a dominant position to determine the course of the postwar world."

Same time he pays all the election campaign venues he's stiffed.... never.

- Is there a "censoring" of gays?

Well, obviously there's a Stupid Question from the usual source.

And the argument that this Censorship of election interference propaganda is OK because it's worse in China?

SO much stupid!

And although Chinese men are noted for their miniscule personal equipment, you make a great case for their brains having the same inadequacies.

- Aren't you and Gal, women ? I see both of you posting.

Gal is the gold standard for posting around here... you are merely a stain on the pages.

And me?

The saying used to be that Ft Worth has something Dallas would never have; a major city 30 miles east of it.

And it looks like the Will Rogers Museum of Fine Arts has expanded a great deal since last I was there:

"Outspoken MAGA critics and Democrat voters have quipped that the half mast flags during such a pivotal moment are Carter's parting gift to Trump after their longstanding feud.

'I'm so sad for this great man's passing but this is going to p**s off the orange clown so much and I've convinced myself this was Jimmy's plan the whole time,' one person wrote.

/

Another added:

'Can't help but smile knowing flags will be at half mast during Trump's Inauguration to honor Jimmy Carter, one of the most decent humans to walk the earth and the very opposite of who's to come.'

'His parting gift: US flags will be at half mast on all federal buildings on Trump's Inauguration Day.'

Obligatory:

"Trump's endorsement comes as Johnson faced some resistance from Hill conservatives ahead of Friday's vote, but the president-elect's backing could stifle other opposition.

The slim GOP majority in the House for Friday's vote means that Johnson can only afford to lose two Republican votes. Democrats are expected to universally oppose Johnson, and Rep. Thomas Massie (R-Ky.) has already signaled his opposition."

'

So... someone must have told DJT that he couldn't be Certified as President if the House was too busy with their Speaker Wars.

Shame, that.

Funny how Trumpers are calling election interference by foreign powers 'Censorship' now.

Of course, they don't seem too concerned about Censoring women or gays or anyone else they don't like.
