Who’s got the odds on whether Trump knew that was a country before today, and if he could point to it on a map today?

No one needs to be “given a message” to hate trump. It’s the natural stance taken upon hearing even 1% of what he is about. We don’t “hate” easily, he’s just that easy to hate.

Oh weird, you mean they didn’t fact check to see if they even had any idea what was going on? So uncharacteristic of them.

They’ll have to get creative for the super important “writing your name in the snow/sand” portion of the military exam.

The worst part is it’s only missing a comma, and maybe one or two more words to clarify, but they would be optional once the comma was in.

If the meeting had already happened before Trump directed them to do so, then it would make sense as a pulse check to see if there would be any dissent. But the meeting hasn’t happened yet.

There is of course the possibility that it was supposed to be about that and someone mentioned it to Trump and he couldn’t hold it and jumped the gun without knowing why it was so important that the meeting happened first… that is unfortunately, plausible…

Did any of those soldiers actually keep that medal anyway? That seems like one of those things they would be trying their hardest to forget, keeping the medal would have sucked.

The fact that their mind even goes to " it was deliberate long-term planning on my opponent’s part to make me look bad" suggests that is shit they do… instead of ‘governing in the best interest of the people they represent’ which is what their job is supposed to be, and what their opponents actually do.

It’s so hard to tell, cuz he barely “had it” to begin with.

To be fair, hard to decline when it’s already low. Even if they did include Israel or other countries mentioned in the replies, it’s still totally possible their tourism isn’t lower this year than last. Especially places where it was already pretty much 0 or statistically insignificant. Not declining doesn’t mean it went up, just means it’s at least the same percentage it was last year.

Yeah, even “powerless” narcissists need someone to feed their ego, and will eventually turn on that person and need a new one.

It’s just worse when the narcissist has power.

Yeah, 3 million trials to catch the thousands of criminals in his own words… or maybe instead of trials first, they could maybe only be rounded up if there is any actual reason to believe they are a criminal in the first place. Then it would only be thousands of trials and all the problems being caused by rounding up 900+ innocent people per 1 criminal, would all of a sudden go away.

Yep, and a wireless VR headset for your home gaming PC has steamdeck beat. So steamdeck only has value if you don’t already have a gaming computer. Or if you need to play on a bus and couldn’t handle added latency in the game you plan on playing.

In a VR headset, you have a 4k screen, or more than one, or a triple-wide 5760x1080 screen, or anything else you want, at 120hz. And you don’t have to look down at your hands to play it or hold your hands up. Virtual desktop is about 6ms latency for your own desktop(s) in your house, and about double that for your own desktop from someone else’s house or business. But tethered to a cell connection, latency can start to get out of hand. Or if you want to stream your computer from half-way around the world. Still useable, but it does limit the types of games you can play at that point.

But, having said that. I’m probably still gonna get a Switch 2. I still like Nintendo first-party games, and I don’t plan on stealing them.

And I still have a Steamdeck, I just rarely find a use for it.

Edit: also you can do perfect 3D monitors in a VR headset. Not to mention also VR…

One of the main storyline NPCs is a well thought out and respected trans individual. Jk rowling specifically tried to tank sales of the game, there are two ways licensing can be done, a one-time upfront fee, or residuals. Her behavior suggests it was the former, though no one has specified that I know of.

Either way, us buying and playing the game is against J.K. Rowlings wishes, good enough for me. And I really enjoyed the game. It was well made if a bit generic, similar to the more recent Avowed, I enjoyed that too. Well-made, fun game, but a bit generic in some aspects.

I also played both in VR once VR mods were available. Hogwarts legacy is great in VR(specifically with Luke Ross’s mod, if you haven’t tried it recently it has made some significant strides in the past few months) Avowed in VR takes alot of hardware to run well(UEVR mod), my hardware was just below that line. Still worth it for me, but not as great of an experience.

And they’ll keep at it until the weather people stop making up that it’s getting hotter. If they would just say “everything is ok, the weather is fixed now, we can go back to making money without feeling guilty” then they would stop getting fired. Easy problem to solve.

/s of course…

Yeah, “well, there were other meetings going on which had to end first” and “there was absolutely no wait time at all”…

I think I can discern what he meant but couldn’t articulate, but if we have to interpret what a more capable person would have said any time the president speaks…

But since we do have to interpret what he must have meant, my interpretation is that he was trying to say “there was reasonable justification for the wait time, it wasn’t artificially increased as a power-play”. Though a counter argument would be, that is exactly how a power play of artificially increasing wait times is accomplished. Instead of scheduling stuff so that people will be met with at a reasonable time given their circumstances, things are shuffled around to make the person unsure when they are supposed to go in. Enough so that they can’t leave cuz it could be any minute, but long enough that they should feel slighted. 2 hours would be a pretty ridiculous slight. Making someone spend 8 hours in your lobby without leaving is overkill. That means the whole time they kept assuring him it would be soon. At no point did they give him any heads up that he could maybe safely go to lunch or dinner or whatever since it wasn’t gonna be “that” soon.

For these meetings, it is generally considered a normal level of respect for the meeting to occur within an hour of the plane landing. Especially for someone who should be incredibly busy and scheduled to have other meetings in other countries that same day.

8 hours is fully, literally, toying with him. 100% showing how little they respect him and who he represents. 3 or 4 hours would have accomplished a complete and utter embarrassment… they wanted to set a record, just for fun.

What he means by “if he was in charge there wouldn’t have been a war” is that he would have made sure Ukraine couldn’t defend itself. It wouldn’t have been called a war cuz Russia would have just taken it.

It didn’t play out how he wanted it to, and people were pushing back and talking about it being very illegal, people that matter. So, of course, it was a joke all along. “Man, you guys thought I was serious? Could you imagine? You guys really need to lighten up and take a joke better. So serious…”

We’ve all been on the other end of that from the various douchebags in our lives.

Also “ha, you flinched!” They like when people react like that.

That’s mostly the problem, it is all “known” just by being obvious, no actual proof. But you’d think being obvious would at least be enough to prevent him from getting elected, lol. Hell, at this point, I’m not even sure if proof would have done the trick…
