It’s amazing how first and second generation immigrants work their way around white supremacist oppression, yet black-Americans can’t.

Even actual African immigrants. They come over and build a new life from the ground up and surpass their dark-skinned American counterparts within a generation.

It’s almost as if it could be a cultural issue.

Didn’t Trump point some gay dude to a high position?

Scott Bessent and Rick Grenell. So at least 2.

Trump on the campaign trail: I’ll end this war in 24 hours.

Trump now: Yeah, frick it

I mean, they have to cross the pacific, clear Cape Horn, (unless they come through the canal which they aren't doing if they are attacking an American state) and then fight their way up to the gulf. Even assuming NOTHING stops them, that's a LOT of logistics that have to go right and a supply chain that is simply not sustainable in a battle situation.

Then once you get into Coonass territory? They'll have the approaches mined. Canals and rivers booby trapped. Shooting torpedoes at their larger ships.

What are they gonna do? Storm the "beaches" in Cameron parish. Much like a castle, they'll sink into the swamp.

Logistics do not favor them, but they have the numbers... which depend on logistics.

Yep. It’s either crossing the swamps and marshlands or going up the Mississippi River. And that’s a bottleneck that would be like shooting fish in a barrel.

Lock him up and throw away the key. If the races were reversed they’d be demanding the white kid go away for life and calling it a hate crime on top of it.

The White House doesn’t need to show proof. This isn’t a trial.

Businesses and the economy don't approve. Nor does any of our 401ks.

It’s mixed whether businesses or the economy approve. Judging that based on any consternation in the moment is unwise. Whether or not they are better off in the long term, or whether the whole ecosystem is better off in the long term is yet unseen, but still very much possible. And we all know it’s dumb to clinch your butt cheeks at the daily ups and downs of the stock market.

The good news with tariffs, like I said before, is long term negative effects can be stopped in their tracks if we see that’s what’s happening. On the flip side, long term positive effects are very much on the table and could be ensured through continuing that policy. It’s not like bad codified law that we are likely stuck with forever.

It just makes democrats look dumb and petty for freaking out about tariffs because unlike most policy that our government enacts, tariffs can be stopped or altered immediately at any time. A kind of push and pull until the perfect balance is found. On the other hand, we’re still stuck the effects of Obamacare 15 years later.
