The week's question
In March 2025, in the thread "Re: OT, out", Umm asked the members: "Do you think it is because America is made up of magical soil that makes businesses based in America magically profitable?" This week it is put to everyone again. The button below opens the small thread re-asking it - read what others have said so far, then give your own answer as an ordinary reply.

Looked at this way, it could be that our current president's fatal flaw is that he is actually doing so much of what he campaigned on.

Yup, sure is. "I'll be a dictator on day 1", "Vote for me once and you'll never have to vote again".
However, he denied that he knew anything about Project 2025 or that he was going to implement any of it. How's that working out?
He promised to protect Social Security. How's that working?
He never said a word about annexing Canada. Doing what he campaigned on?
And I guess when he kinda promised to be Putin's lap dog nobody took him seriously.
It's not only about tariffs and your IRA you know. It's the destruction of every assumption you're making about the future of the world.
