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.

Trump orders FCC to intervene to stop 'fake polls' and punish NBC host

Trump singled out NBC’s Kristen Welker, moderator of Meet the Press, and slammed her for accurately reporting that his endorsements have been met with mixed success this cycle. Her comments came on the heels of several Trump-endorsed candidates losing their primary races, including Rep. Cory Mills who was dragged down by scandal in his Florida primary, and Amir Hassan, who lost his Michigan primary for a U.S. House seat to an opponent who’d suspended his campaign.

The president wrote Sunday that Welker “will be reported to the FCC for rebuke or punishment” over what he called a “purposeful inaccuracy” in stating the track record of his endorsed candidates this cycle.

“THE FAKE POLLS USED BY OUR CROOKED MEDIA ARE OUT OF CONTROL, AND SOMETHING MUST BE DONE ABOUT IT. FCC TO THE RESCUE!” Trump wrote in a second message.

All hail Generalissimo Trump, President For Life, or suffer the consequences, just like any other banana republic.
