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.

You can’t fix stupid.

The trifecta of Trump, Musk and Ramaswamy not only demonstrated how stupid they were trying to shut down the government because they forgot (or don't know how) to read the budget proposal, they also just lost. Congress just told them to go to hell with their proposal to get rid of the debt ceiling.

If Trump thinks he can run the country like a business (you know, like the casinos he bankrupted or the Trump U students he scammed), then he hasn't read the Constitution. But then reading isn't one of his strengths. He's good at watching TV, constantly playing golf, being a narcissistic bully and lying.
