Her popularity could conceivably tank.

It’s like a start up. Show up early and buy in on low stocks, work your ass off, retire at 40. I’d assume it’s something like that. Pick the best place to build your house, claim all the resources.
Or maybe he just wanted solitude.

NeptuneOrbit@lemmy.worldto No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•Was Donald Trump ever cool?13·3 months agoMy dad is about 60. White Midwestern man. Loved trash TV right after reality TV had that first big wave. He loved the one about tow trucks and The Apprentice. My dad thought it was so cool.
I also had an ancient as shit 5th grade teacher in about 1999. She was maybe… 60? Older? She would always say dumb shit like “as rich as Donald Trump, but you guys are too young to know about him.”
In the Sopranos, Tony’s son is coming of age and his dad wants him to go to college so he doesn’t follow him into crime. But AJ tells his dad at one point he wants to becomr a helicopter pilot. And fly for people like Trump.
He was always lurking in the background. Like a celebrity for morons.

A security breach? This time of year? Localized entirely on my cell phone? SKINNNNER
Maybe Mexico should have invaded Texas after George Floyd.
Its shocking how so much Russia defending sounds just like the Bush excuses for Iraq. “Well we didn’t find weapons of mass destruction, but the leader was just really awful so we had to, right?”
NeptuneOrbit@lemmy.worldto politics @lemmy.world•Tech Execs Are Pushing Trump to Build ‘Freedom Cities’ Run by Corporations4·3 months agoIncorporating an HOA or a company making a retirement village is not really the same as Amazon or Monsanto funding some sort of handshake with the state government to make some sort of lawless zone for them to take advantage of.
Don’t you need to give all your information to AI if you have ever interacted with the government in the past?
NeptuneOrbit@lemmy.worldto politics @lemmy.world•Americans warned of grocery prices shock9·4 months agoWe tried to resolve this with legislation and the right wing crazies killed it each time. It’s not like the average Democratic voter wants an undocumented underclass. The business interests do. And the GOP leadership gets to fund raise on the caravans.
Most Americans want a better life for these people. Step one isn’t to spend a trillion dollars to deport them all.
They didn’t fire the bricks. Just formed the mud and hoped for the best (?)

NeptuneOrbit@lemmy.worldto politics @lemmy.world•Trump rages at Biden for wrecking his plans for executions: ‘Makes no sense’53·6 months agoIn theory, the death penalty makes some sense. It’s a right the government reserves for itself (violence) and I think in some contexts it makes sense to be on the table. In practice, it’s more expensive than a life sentence, and it’s a blunt and racist tool to maintain unjust social and state power.
I wish every governor and president commuted 95% of death penalty situations. It’s a major injustice that most executions were carried out, even for those who belief it’s something the government should be doing.

Fantasy and science fiction were always my escapes. When we finally got this game it was my everything. Little did I know the sequel had already been out for a while. I still have so much of the game memorized. Every few years I pull out the n64 and play it again…

Now they have a dumpster fire in the White House.English81·6 months agoWell you see, he bribed that one union member and also took both sides of every issue, so the average voter wasn’t sure who to vote for.
The fence? He is friends with the thief and the reader.
