Republican on the House Committee of Appropriations voted against an amendment prohibiting President Donald Trump from keeping the Qatari plane after his term.
Everyone has been put under a normalization spell, the trauma was too intense too long. I tried explaining to another liberal my fears about this term’s version of the January 6 insurrection, he looked at me like I was crazy. People are trained to believe the ping-pong will go on forever, save and easy.
“None of it was ‘gunna happen’ and it just kept right happening anyway!”
They say it’s our thumbs and big brains that are our super power but I swear, our ability to pretend like everything is fine despite overwhelming evidence is something truly incredible.
Peaceful transfers of power? You had a civil war over the transfer of power a century and a half ago, and “transfers of power” via assassination are common enough for the President to be the most dangerous job in your country. The “Can’t Happen Here” is due to a constant flood of exceptionalist propaganda; it has nothing to do with your track record.

We’re spoiled from having peaceful transfers of power for so long. It Can’t Happen Here.

I bet you think a hundred miles is a long drive.
Oh come on. Being an arborist is more dangerous than being the president. Delivering pizzas is more dangerous than being the president.
Or they know the opposite and allow it because of that
“It’s gonna end up going to the person he loves best anyway. Let Putin have it!”
The funny thing is that Christians always say “you can’t take it with you when you die”, so maybe they made a deal with god to get an exception?
