The earths magnetic field will vanish when the ice over the poles melt and floods those magnets. "Think of it, magnets," Trump said. "Now all I know about magnets is this, give me a glass of water, let me drop it on the magnets, that's the end of the magnets." is the actual quote. His rambling nonsense is getting worse and worse during his campaign speeches.

I wondered about that as well. Until I looked for used Prius cars a couple years ago. Dozens of used ones with 500-700,000 km for sale by cab companies. Cabbies, now called Uber drivers were buying used ones with 300k and running them a couple more years. All city driving as well. Back to Brent. Further investigation shows that GM offered a similar buyout for Cadillac dealers a couple years ago to increase volumes at the remaining dealerships. The Buick dealers that accept the current buyout will not have to invest about $300k in EV related training and setup costs. They will still be allowed to sell their other brands of GM cars like Chevrolet, Cadillac and GMC. Something Brent omitted to mention.

You have to use your MBA a little more when you troll. "and more than 50% of Buick dealers recently went out of business rather than sell them." Does that even make sense to you? That dealership owners closed their doors rather than sell EV?s Is that the type of nonsense you feed your mind? "In 2023, Americans have bought a record 1 million-plus hybrids — up 76 percent from the same period last year, according to Edmunds.com" EV sales penetration of the US and worldwide markets is going to be uneven. But hybrids are also a part of the equation.

Yes, yes you are and coming next January the Brownshirts will be coming for activists everywhere. And no thats not the UPS men and women. Yes lie and make counter accusations.

I thought you were in Florida?

While I don't doubt the fact checking of your story. Putin and the Russian orthodox church have a hand in glove relationship on this war. Separate quotes The Russian orthodox church has been caught spying for Russia in Ukraine. Picture from today as Putin attends a Russian Orthodox Christmas liturgy. Just like the US evangelicals who have a tool that they use for political advantage, i.e. trump. Putin uses the Russian Orthodox church for his advantage.

Its all working because one of the latest polls shows that over 30% of republicans believe that Jan 6th insurrection was led by the FBI. Yet some people believe dialogue and negation is possible with this tribe.

Do you mean like conservative trump fans that paid over $4.6 million for his latest batch of "digital trading cards"?

Wee1 tactical, so your kids can be just like Dad. Coming soon to a schoolyard near you.

Yes 5 years perhaps

Its ok we all know the history of Luddites People Had To Be Convinced of the Usefulness of Electricity " In 1920, electricity wasn’t something that many people thought they needed, says the Library of Congress. New York Edison still had to push businesses to adopt not just their technology, but the technology of electricity to begin with."

FIFY

No prayer necessary Stephen Miller is here. For conservatives the wall needs trump to repel the Brown hordes. The purity of American blood is in peril. The war in Ukraine needs an American dictator in order to get PEACE. The US budget deficit needs trump to balance the budget and eliminate the debt To put both Biden's in prison to teach that crime family not to weaponize the justice department and the constitution.

Tribalism, attack ads, lobbyists., etc. might put that way off into the future.The idea that integrity, honesty, a national interest vs local pandering. Seems to be a voteing idea that is history in many places.

The Republican governor of Ohio has vetoed a bill on Friday that would have banned transgender minors from receiving puberty blockers, hormone therapy and surgeries. Ohio is ruled by the republican tribe. "Those in favor of the bill argued that parents are pressured by doctors to sign off on transition care treatments for their children. The bill’s sponsor, Representative Gary Click, said parents are “being manipulated by the physicians.’’ This should be a thread with other republicans having the aforementioned brains and backbones. But I can't think of any left who have not been driven out of the party by MAGA apostles of trump. So naturally democrats will be mentioned the most.

Well a bit more to put Florida in context: "According to Gualtieri(the Sheriff), minors have been obtaining guns through car burglaries or by purchasing inexpensive stolen weapons on the street. "In the last thirty days, we’ve taken reports where seventeen guns have been stolen from unlocked cars," Gualtieri said. According to people interviewed by the sheriff's department, the teen brothers carried guns on them "all the time," Gualtieri said. "This is what happens when you've got young delinquents that carry guns – they get upset, they don't know how to handle stuff so they just take out their guns and start shooting each other and one of them kills his sister," Gualtieri said." So both minors never got the guns from parents. They had been both carrying the guns on them for a while. The sheriff's spokesman is obviously wrong in stating that "young delinquents" are the only problem in Florida's gun loving culture. Dashcam video(Florida) from inside driver's car shows him shooting during road rage incident

Perhaps, but as far as party members goes, since the death of McCain, he's the best they got. All the others with a brain, with a backbone....Wait a minute. There is Chris Christie who in his latest ad called out trump as a liar and traitor.His identified support in polls is 2% so there is an odd GOP left who hasn't drunk the Kool-aid. Has Christie's larger physique plugged up the drain for the bath water of the GOP? Can Liz, Chris, etc. tread water to resurrect the GOP post 24 election losses?

Isn't the US run by Jews?

Considering the number of dead and injured annually. Which will exceed the number killed and injured in Gaza this year. Its more likely to be a steel toed boot than a thumb.

I'll direct your attention to Article Thirteen of the Hamas Charter "Initiatives, and so-called peaceful solutions and international conferences, are in contradiction to the principles of the Islamic Resistance Movement." and 'Israel will exist and will continue to exist until Islam will obliterate it, just as it obliterated others before it.' Furthermore " 'The Day of Judgment will not come about until Moslems fight Jews and kill them. Then, the Jews will hide behind rocks and trees, and the rocks and trees will cry out: 'O Moslem, there is a Jew hiding behind me, come and kill him." and for anyone who doubts the power of Jews " "With their money they stirred revolutions in various parts of the globe... They stood behind the French Revolution, the Communist Revolution and most of the revolutions we hear about... With their money they formed secret organizations - such as the Freemasons, Rotary Clubs and the Lions - which are spreading around the world, in order to destroy societies and carry out Zionist interests... They stood behind World War I ... and formed the League of Nations through which they could rule the world. They were behind World War II, through which they made huge financial gains... There is no war going on anywhere without them having their finger in it.' (Article 22)"

I like (good)polls because it does away with subjective views and reporting that can be wildly inaccurate. Here is the latest Life in Israel After Oct. 7 in 5 Charts What happens after Biden who has Israel's back is out of office. trump has similar views on Israel but Israel is burning bridges fast. IMO a two state solution and ending the hold that Zionist settlers have on the coalition government is a necessity. Those poll numbers suggest that nothing like that is close. In the meantime the only real friend that the Palestinians seem to have is Iran. A recipe for more war. Because Egypt, Jordan and the other regional states despise Hamas and don't want refugees coming on their territory.

According to a recent poll 22% of Palestinians believe the attack was wrong. While I support Israel's idea that Hamas has to be eliminated. The Netanyahu war plan is not protecting civilians enough. Israel is going to be seen as the bully, the oppressor after the war. They can't even sustain the talking points anymore that Hamas is the bad guy. Beheading Jewish children and raping Jewish women then parading them naked on the streets of Gaza. Has been lost because of how they are treating the civilian populations. The radical Zionist illegal settler clans control the government and the current agenda for unrestricted punishment of Gaza. Its a mistake that will cost Israel in the US because young Israeli- Americans and American Jews are shocked by what is happening. Biden won't have Israels back forever.

I really want to know. I really want to know. I really want to know. Here your fellow SC DZ owner, Joe is trying to get you in as a mod. Your then try to play us all as fools.
