Iran is just the new Vietnam. Venezuela was just Panama part 2. Trump's economic policies are the same as Reagan's. Stephen Miller is just the next Lee Atwater. Historians have no problem explaining it now and won't have trouble in the future either.

You've heard of the American Civil War right? We've kind of done this before With more than one President and Congress to make the same mistakes in just slightly different ways. Hell we locked up citizens purely based on their nationality once already. Trump is new but the problems aren't.

That's the impossible question because there were a number of declines followed by resurgences. Could the Catholic church be considered the ongoing Roman empire?

One can only hope that after MarkWayne Mullins shits the bed at DHS that Trump will name a horse in his place.

Don't forget! The Patriot Games (who knows what that will look like) are coming this fall and there is going to be an IndyCar race (basically just gas powered chariots) in D.C. this summer. Rome is back baby!

There is a big difference between using it to create bad memes and actually using it to it's full potential. Personally I would like to see a lot more regulation around accuracy, power usage, and what it can and can't be used for (sexual exploitation for example).

It's basically a bubbly, non-alcoholic Campari Spritz. I've had Beverly a few times and every time since reaching legal drinking age I've wanted to buy a bottle so I could make easy Negroni's or Boulevardier's at home.

I'm good with it as long as there is another tax increase attached to it for anyone who is making over $1M on all their financial assets. Tax the stocks and bonds these people hold and make it a 95%+ tax rate for anything over $1B.

Ok well that's just not true in reality. Plenty of people get sweetheart deals or get charges dropped b/c of who they know or how much money they have. Once again you are in dreamland while we are all here in reality.

While you are busy daydreaming about things that didn't happen I'll be over here in reality about the thing that kids are currently being charged with. Go ahead keep showing your ass to everyone with your INCREDIBLE hypotheticals.

Ok well they weren't doing that so your "what if's" are stupid and pointless. Also it would still be ruining their lives over an accident if they were locked up for about 15 years like you are recommending. The kids stopped immediately and tried to help as much as they could.

How does someone get a job like this while being so naive? I could have told her that Trump would be a disaster for the economy b/c he's too chaotic. Wall Street and Bankers must be some of the dumbest people on earth.

I read the thread and you compared the teacher dying to Good and Pretti being murdered. You made some lame caveats but would still be fine with locking up some kids for 30 years if the teacher wasn't in on it. You also never said that the kids shouldn't be charged just that it was complicated.

Are you really trying to compare the 2 to this? All are horrific but one is a terrible accident and the others were state sponsored murder. Don't get all crazy on this b/c you are fine with ruining some kids lives b/c of an accident that the teacher was in on.

I'm surprised it was only 23 after watching that.

Anything on Clickhole is similar to The Onion. It's satire and definitely tongue-in-cheek.

At some point the bit stops being a bit when you do it long enough.

You thought between Harris and Trump that Trump with all his Evangelical support would be the one to stop supplying arms to Israel? Really? Are Americans really that dumb?

Yeah b/c Trump was definitely going to stop it... Are you really that dumb? If you wanted to see the fighting end there was a much better chance of that happening with Harris than with Trump.

Well Done Animal Style fries are so good you forget that their standard fries aren't that great. There aren't many places that you can watch them cutting full potatoes for their fries either. People just don't like the taste of things that are fresh b/c they are so accustomed to frozen.

Hello fellow millennial. I was in 7th grade and my school decided against turning on TVs for everyone. I had an orthodontist appointment that day so I got to relay to my whole class about what was happening after hearing it on the radio.

Just like Vietnam it's going to give China and Russia a bunch of experience on how to handle our weapons systems without any direct conflict. The dumbest people are in charge of our gov't right now. I hope this hurts them a lot.

Russia-Ukraine would have been the one to start it if Ukraine hadn't been able to stop Russia. Iran will be more like Vietnam with a steady increase of US involvement without much support from other countries.

Haha! I was going to say burnt rubber, an overheated transmission, and late child support payments.

Heinrich Himmler who famously wore it regularly.

I can only see the difference when it's pointed out and Platner's tattoo was so dark in pictures you couldn't really tell. The main thing though is that any person claiming to be a history/military buff would know it's the one that concentration camp guards wore. They would also be familiar with

There haven't been a lot of clear pictures of Platner's but the two most likely are either the one worn by the SS-TV divisions that guarded and controlled the concentration camps and famously worn by Heinrich Himmler or the 3rd Panzer division which was responsible for a number of war crimes.

Trump's biggest weakness is flattery and Putin and Xi know it. Just look at at the pictures with Trump and Mamdani. They look like best friends b/c Mamdani knows what he's doing and got what he wanted from Trump even though they are essentially political enemies.

This is basically what the US did to the USSR by backing Afghan militias when the USSR invaded Afghanistan in the 80's. Iran doesn't have to win they just need to make it hurt for a long time to make the USA weaker. Occupation also never works out well for the occupier in modern history.
