If I remember correctly, a President is required to put his holdings in some sort of blind trust?


Thats assuming they’re upfront and honest about their holdings. Especially now with cryptocurrency, it’s even easier to hide shit. Or, someone who has spent their entire life gaming the system through loop holes and just flat out illegal practices, I don’t know that I trust he did

You also ignored the first part of my sentiment.

How do you feel about our president (regardless of political affiliation) on the front lawn of the White House, literally trying to sell Americans a car?

Isn’t that, at the VERY least embarrassing? And him claiming that boycotting Tesla is illegal. Now we don’t have the right to boycott a company? Isn’t that what they did to Bud Light a few years ago?

Golly, did he claim that "boycotting" Tesla is illegal? Or did he assert that committing violence against Tesla dealerships was illegal?

Come on man, you're better than this. Quit being sloppy.

Do you believe the Bidens had financial interests/bribes related to Ukraine? If not, how is *your* disbelief any different than my disbelief that the Trump compliance with blind trust disclosures is anything other than honorable?

Again, stop making this so silly.

“But the Radical Leftist Lunatics, as they often do, are trying to illegally and collusively boycott Tesla”

His own words. Nothing about violence, he even likens it to what “they tried to do to me at the 2024 presidential ballot box” again, no reference to violence

Come on Larry, you know I keep receipts

What prompted those remarks? Was he maniacally watching "sales" figures?

Or was it in response to several Tesla dealerships having acts of violence committed the day before?

Here’s a shocker for ya Larry

Yes. I do believe he had financial ties to Ukraine. Even if he did, how does that change our support for a country being invaded by Russia? Do you want to side with Putin in this?

It’s different because I understand who Trump has spent his entire life being. He has been this person for as long as he’s been in the public eye. It’s been documented for decades. And for you to think he suddenly had a change of heart in his 70s? Come on, who’s being the silly goose

How many bullshit products does he have to sell before you realize it’s all one big con? He’s sold bibles, gold shoes, watches, steaks, cryptocurrency, bears, who the fuck else knows what else.

It sure happened very shortly after Elon lost $100B because the stock is tanking.

And, for him to say he would deem acts of violence against dealerships as an act of “domestic terrorism” is also a HUGE stretch, and you know it. Yes, no one needs to fuck up a dealership, but uh, terrorism it ain’t

Even if that "fuck up a dealership" happens at several locations, all within a 24-hour period?

Come on man, you *know* these acts were loosely coordinated.

"When a large Russian army fights a smaller Russian army, the larger Russian army will win."

That's the truth of the matter. I have zero idea (not true actually, I know the answer is "graft") why we pretended sending BILLIONS of dollars to Ukraine was an awesome idea, but I no longer care what happens to them. IF Russia steam-rolled Ukraine tomorrow morning...that's for EUROPE to worry about. It won't have any effect on my day at all, or yours.

You don’t think that Elmo hasn’t made a lot of enemies in the past month? It’s not terrorism when people are made at one person in particular.

They all took place within a 24 hour period....and then magically stopped?

You know we benefit from sending that money, right? We reinvest money to restock our ammunition supplies. And I actually agree that I’m tired of being involved in every conflict that goes on around the world. It’s exhausting. So why don’t we agree we should cut out military spending budget down by like, let’s say, $500B? We could surely cut down on our debt then

Hilarious (or typical?) that Larry laps up the Trumpanzee after-spin about the statement, while being clearly ignorant of the statement itself: https://s.yimg.com/ny/api/res/1.2/8ads3VwPwhML9NJi7iOYYw--/YXBwaWQ9aGlnaGxhbmRlcjt3PTk2MDtoPTEyMjU-/https://media.zenfs.com/en/buzzfeed_articles_778/0b21ae30e1ecbdb3a48226c1f20a219d

I disagree. The US has been a deterrent for Russia and China for a long time. If they see we will not support and defend our allies they will simply start taking over countries. China is watching very closely, they want Taiwan moreso than Russia wanted Ukraine. If we are seen as weak then that is when a larger, more complex war will begin. You don't think Russia and China discuss this together?
