Watched the movie today
If there is a good thing I can say about him
some commie added that unflattering pic of the richest Aspie ever
About a 90% chance of Trump winning according to NYT
Parting thought, as the U.S goes, the Western World goes.
To the naysayers, ask yourselves, why is he the most popular podcaster in the world?
IMO, a bona-fide psychopath
Do it....Do it....Do it.

If they don't try, it would mean Trump isn't doing what he said he was going to do.
I will quickly address this one thing.
"I can write on a piece of paper "I owe you $100", would that be money I own while I have that piece of paper myself? Nope, while I have the paper it's a worthless piece of paper, but it would become money as soon as I give the paper to someone else, as long as that someone else considers my paper valid and trusts that I will buy it back for $100 later."
That piece of paper is basically a contract for a transaction, not currency. You would still need $100 dollars CREATED BY THE FED, to complete that transaction.
After being tricked into watching "The Lobster" by critics, I stopped listening to them.
What? Of course a country can pay off it's debt. The U.S. had no debt once in its history.

In the U.S., only the Fed has the power to introduce new money into the system (The treasury prints the actual currency the Fed creates). If I were to lend you 20k, I would have to have money created by the fed to lend you. I can't legally create U.S. dollars on my own to lend to you. That would be counterfeiting and the Secret Service would soon bee knocking on my door.
I don't know where this belief that Trump will eliminate the national debt in the first few weeks comes from. The expectation is that *if* all of the spending cuts recommended by DOGE are implemented by Congress, the federal budget will be balanced, meaning we won't be running up any new debt, and after that, *if* everything goes to plan, we will be running a surplus that will lower the debt. *If* that model is followed for a few decades, then ultimately the debt will be zeroed out.
I personally, do not have high hopes for that.
Why does she think she is going to die soon? Unless she has some serious undisclosed illness, she will more than likely make it into her 80s and possibly beyond.
Saw it while on a cruise. It is a well-made movie. Why I think it flew under the radar is because it uses one of Hollywood's oldest and most overused plots - the persecution of Jews by the Nazis. That war ended eighty years ago, and countless movies and television shows have highlighted this persecution since. IMO, it just doesn't hold the public's fascination anymore. Perhaps if it came out before "Schindler's List," it would have received more attention.
Scorsese is the greatest living director, but it is time to hang it up, before he makes his own version of "Cry Macho."
Trump has a lot of good qualities, but this is one of his negative ones - he can't let small things go. He has enough on his plate, he didn't need to kick it off with this LBGTQ preacher.
Only bona-fide retards believe he was actually paying homage to the Third Reich.
She thinks economics are "made up." That is probably why she thinks her grandiose green ideas are realistic if she doesn't factor economics into the equation.
She actually looks somewhat nice in that first photo. First time for everything, I guess.
