  • So you’re arguing that she’s generally competent. But you’re also hedging that she might not be competent in this job. So, your issue is with the article characterizing her as a salon owner to score cheap political points? Are you living in 2025 with the rest of us?

    Feasibly it’s different from the president because he should’ve divested himself from all other activities as per the law and why the president normally has a massive staff to keep him informed since they can’t be all places at once.

    As for Elon and DOGE, we’ve all seen how that level of “Competence” went.

    So, I can’t tell if this is a troll post or someone just being inherently pedantic.

    Being a competent farmer doesn’t make you a competent astronaut.




  • There has been a concerted effort on the right to isolate a dumb down voters for years. There was a solid documentary a number of years back I think it was called outfoxed where they explained how after Nixon was defeated a group of right wingers swore they would create a system where that would never happen again. Surprisingly, they succeeded. Trump is the result of that. When he said he could walk out in a Times Square shoot someone and no one would care he was correct. They have insulated isolated and dumb down their voting base so much that he could do or say whatever he wants and get away with it because they think he’s winning and therefore They are winning. A comedian said it best recently: MAGA supporters are like the guy at the local strip club who thinks that the stripper is in love with them when in reality the stripper doesn’t give a fuck about you and just wants your money. That’s what this entire administration is. They’re going to rob this country blind completely destroy it and then walk away with billions of dollars while the rest of us have to suffer through this shit storm they created. But no one will care because Black people brown people poor people us anybody else than me is suffering just a little bit more than me and that’s good enough for them because they’ve been told to think like that and they’re okay accepting that.
