He doesn't strike me as a big personality. I think he'd like to be Secretary of Education. But is that job already named? I can't recall seeing it. People were pretty sure when he said Oklahoma needs to buy hundred of thousands of Bibles with the Constitution in them (oddly rare??), it was...

Transgender an odd kind of issue, because it cannot be settled. The Republicans talk LIKE there are policy decisions to be made concerning schools giving transition surgery and sports participation, but the former is totally fake and the latter won't be handled by the government. Talk also of...

"There was really no indication that they would eat my face."

It could have just been an animator's decision.

Yeah, I know. But there was another group of votes to be lost if she started complaining about him. My childhood impression that VPs get elected President was a really bad take and I didn't know it until a few weeks ago. It is REALLY hard for a VP to win that election. Being Joe Biden's...

Which is a weird plot point, but they weren't the only stupid sentient animals in the Universe. He could've call Sharkticons.

In October, Happy Meals come in plastic buckets with spooky faces on the side. It's a container for hamburgers, fries, and apple slices, but you could use it to hold Halloween candy and come summer you could carry sand around the beach in it. I think pretty much anything that can hold...

In the Non-Primus cartoon universe where we first saw Unicron, where he was built by an alien monkey with no good ideas, how did Unicron learn of the Matrix and fixate on it as the one thing, the only thing that could stand in his way? Followup question: Whoever told him what it was, did they...

It is difficult to accept, but a lot of people on voting day and the day after googled "Did Biden drop out". I'm not saying I think it is a good idea. I'm just playing with it. But while it would have made her more the incumbent. It would also have made her less the lady who might not have...

I read a quote here years ago that I believe was attributed to a Founding Father and I thought I remembered it word for word, but I'm getting nothing on Google now. Can someone redirect me? "If we're to have a tyrant, let him be from the other party"

There was talk a couple years ago of a system where Top Secret documents would only be available on a tablet. Edit - https://www.slashgear.com/pentagon-tests-tablet-access-to-secret-classified-documents-02493775/ It was more recent than 2017 that I learned of this, but I am not seeing an...

It is still an illegal order. The soldiers are not covered by his official acts.

Would it have been any better if Biden had resigned and Kamala had been sworn in as the 47th President?

And I'm reluctant to talk about it too. I am afraid of talking myself off a cliff. My mom really liked Laura Bush. My mom is gone, but if you'd asked her 10 years ago if she'd like there to be a female President, she would've said yes. If you had asked her what they'd be like, you would find...

Kamala suffered, yes, from an anti-incumbent wave. She also suffered from the awkwardness of a VP where she could not effectively establish her own identity apart from Biden. When Biden was being asked to step down there was a period in there where the public thought maybe anyone could be the...

Just a week or two before Joe stepped down I had a conversation with my wife about how difficult it will be for a woman to win the White House and how probably she wouldn't win the nomination in 2028 (which sounds much more futuristic than it is). Then all the sudden she was the presumptive...

https://www.cnn.com/2024/11/15/business/musk-tesla-trump-ev-tax-credit/index.html How perfect is this? If Trump ends the tax credit to buy a EV, it could drive Tesla's competitors out of business and Telsa is making enough profit that they can reduce price a little and mop up the competition...

Trump didn't say the Heritage Foundation were a bunch of filthy Nazis. He said he agreed with some of the things they said and some of it he didn't. Miller was behind the tariffs in Trump's first term. Homan was running ICE. Trump went out of office and they were invited to contribute to...

See, I didn't even know he knew THAT much.
