    Just for you Bisco:



    He's talking to Christians about how they historically do not turn out in large percentages. Telling them they need to get out and vote, drag their friends and relatives, etc, but get out and vote. Get him elected for another term and it will all be fixed (as in America's problems) and they won't need to vote again.

    As in he's going to fix the country's problems (sure) and then they can go back to their normal low percentage turnout for the next election. Making anything more out of what he said is just people looking for anything to cry about or click bait or whatever you want to call it. I call it just more BS of people using a few words of a larger discussion to try to twist what someone said. F those people. ALL of them. And F all the people that believe everything the media blasts them with and then try to pass it along as gospel truth.

    I couldn't care less about either party or candidate, but I'm sick of all the BS, from both sides. It's only a matter of time before AI makes everything 100% not believable, yet too many people already have the wool pulled over their eyes by the media.

    Less bad make-up but the hair seems thinner and less 'in place'

    Has t given a rally while white, like pictures of him white and horrible in golf carts? Don’t think so. I doubt your undated pictures of President Biden show any artificial bronzing, not that it matters.

    I see his supporters doing the fist thing a lot. Jan 6 disqualified him, among many other reasons. Ukraine goes to Russia, and the fist salute can’t be the future.

    It's hard to tell if he has early onset Alzheimers or not, because he's always been wacky, just more now . He's got to be on Wegovy or Ozempic.

    In digital photography, this is what is know as white balance. Notice how the white shirt in the left photo is less white than the right. Even his hair is "orangey" in the left; nothing to do with makeup (yes they wear it) or conspiracy theories.

    vanity vanity .... we try & hang on to youthfulness, and sometimes it looks worse ... if looks matter.
    i had serious scalp & facial acid burns years & years ago. Thank goodness reconstructive surgery had moved past the days of hair plugs that ended up looking like cornrows. Even when paid for by workers comp. Even Joe has a streak of vanity ... if vanity matters

    MAGATs are apparently orange, NOT yellow.

    Man...
    This thread went ugly, early!
    'Zactly, although if you look at the pictures of the '21 DC deployment and you 'know a thing or two about a thing or two' you will not get too twisted in a knot about 'armed troops on American soil.'

    When I wore the uniform I stopped carrying unloaded (and unchambered) weapons when I traded my sneakers and poopie suits in for woodland green/desert tan over combat boots.

    After seeing this photo, thought this may be more fitting.

    Maybe you can explain why a president did not protect the Capitol and congress. T can’t.

    What does that have to do with anything I've discussed?
    I suppose everyone has some obligation, but out of curiosity, whose actual responsibility is it to 'protect' the Capitol and Congress? (or arrange for/call for/organize or whatever)

    NVM, A quick google search answered that for me.

    PolitiFact | No, Capitol security is not only Pelosi’s responsibility, but she bears some

    Not just yet, it has to be answered about people not doing their own fact finding and listening to the whole story. Believing falsehoods. Meanwhile no one says why commander in chief did nothing. It was because he liked what was happening. He still says he likes it to this day. The Pelosi is at fault nonsense was debunked a long time ago. McConnell is in the same position, nothing about him.
    Now back to your Tesla earnings.

    You need to take that down in the basement.
    I haven't seen you ask for a hall pass to the FHOP_P nor have you posted down there.
    AT ALL.
    I myself have no objection to mentioning politics in FHOP, and have done so many times, but somebody out there with thin skin is going to go running to a moderator pretty soon with alligator tears running down their face and this thread will be moved - AND you will no longer be able to tell people 'not so fast.'
    SO...you may as well start looking for that pass now, and avoid the 06 November rush.
    My neighbor has a Cybertruck - a VERY curious flex for him since he appears to be too frugal to use exterior lighting next door and his usta-truck was a well used Nissan.
    BUT - he's a good neighbor.
    My sweet wife had never seen one in the wild and thought it was a kit car gone horribly wrong.
    When I told her what it was and that it was a $90,000.00++(**) vehicle I think she permanently damaged her eye roll tendons.
    Not so much that a car(*) is so "in your face' unattractive.
    We ARE older than the Pontiac Aztek, but rather the fact that somebody would spend more for a cybertruck than Azteks WENT for back in 2005.

    (**) I'm TOLD that the lineup only includes the Dual Motor and Beast models for now which start at $82K +TTDL
    (*) My CFO also had a hard time believing that it's a truck, since it presents as a car.

    so...
    AT THE RISK of getting back on topic:
    @Tesla Stock - like the Mean Orange Man himself - it somehow continues to defy gravity and overperform, probably BECAUSE OF rather than in spite of those who throw rocks.

    I'm 'somehow' reminded of all of the "Prius Hate" threads that were so prolific in the 2010s.
    Hint:
    It wasn't the Prius that they hated...... ;)

    Stern Shot:
    I participated in state mandated training yesterday for my role as a member of my county's election team.
    We've logged more absentee votes so far in 2024 than we did when COVID was raging in 2020 and the rate is continuing to accelerate, as is the request for new voter registrations.

    Impact on the national race:
    None.

    Our electors may as well buy non-refundable tickets to DC for 20 January, 25.

    Buuuut.
    Interesting nonetheless...... ;)
