Andrew Jackson famously paid off the national debt through a massive tariff that almost started the Civil War 20 years early

They know their organizations could just as easily get banned if this becomes the norm, whether it's because they accidentally run afoul of this administration or Dems make it back to power someday.

Doesn't make it the wrong statement to make though.

They'd have to somehow keep Obama from running, so they can't just say "third term". It would have to be jerry-rigged to hell to let Trump run but keep Obama out.

Also makes me suspect that republicans have zero clue who they can run after The Donald. Why else would they even bother trying to mention having the guy in office after 2028? The methods to do that are either a constitutional amendment (they don't have anywhere near a big enough majority to get one through) or unconstitutional means (scary, but also way more work/trouble than running a competent candidate and winning a normal election). It would be way easier to start grooming the heir apparent if they had any clue who that was.

A lot of these states have had Republican control of their legislatures for decades. Why exactly are their governments inefficient?

It wouldn't even get that far. You need either two thirds of both House and Senate or for two thirds of the states to call for a constitutional convention just to propose an amendment.

I consume a lot of cottage cheese. Pre-Covid the 48oz container I buy cost about $2.50. The price spiked to about $5.00 during quarantine and has since fallen down to about $3.00. There's a lot of items that have followed similar trends and, while they're more expensive than they were in early 2020, they're not at their Covid spike prices which is what everyone seems to think.

Her platform literally calls for the disbanding of NATO

No wonder Alamogordo is such a strange place

The guy has failed to use funds apportioned to Oklahoma schools from both Federal and State sources, and has stonewalled attempts from the state legislature to investigate the Oklahoma DoE. He's being sued for defamation of a superintendent and has outright defied the Oklahoma Supreme Court.

He's speedrunning the alienation of his own party.

Ausgezeichnet!

There might be validity to the theory that everyone who wanted to vote for a "tough guy" already was before the shogt

Dutch looks like someone got really drunk and tried to combine English and German.

I tried Dark Souls and quit pretty early because I couldn't pause. I don't care about doing inventory or anything like that, but I'd like to be able to just stop things if I need to go check on the door or something. The outside world doesn't stop just because I'm gaming.

I was using Manjaro KDE and ended up switching to Pop OS because Manjaro would never work right with my GPU. Pop OS has worked very well out of the box though.

The first time I learned about this as a wee lad, I was genuinely Concerned

This dude's lucky he's not a mind flayer

Those numbers are from the Hamas-run Gaza Ministry of Health. Regardless of whether they're true or not, Israel supporters won't believe those numbers.
