According to them no one can get anything accomplished in 2 years

The difference is that it’s a lot easier and faster to break things than it is to build or repair them.

The families didn’t pay for this, The Onion did.

The families support was not financial in this .

And woe if someone dies, gets sick, or retires

Out of over 200 people, all of those are statistically likely over a 4 year period.

And they’re gonna get it good and hard…

Assuming he doesn’t change the rules and appoint himself president forever, then the limit is 2 terms, consecutive or not.

Even if a person started their presidential mandate partway through a 4 year cycle (as happened after Nixon stepped down and after Kennedy was shot), it’s still 2 terms, not necessarily 8 years.

If Trump dies in the next 4 years, Vance could serve out the current term and would only be eligible to become president for one additional term.

Canada has its own conservativism problems

We absolutely do. I’m hoping the shit-show down south prevents the right wing voices here from gaining influence further than they already have.

If you were under the illusion that Trump is going to improve the situation for the Palestinians in any way, I have a bridge to sell you…

Inconsistency is the only thing Trump can be counted on to do reliably.

The point is to pretend to be focused on government waste

Just like every republican president since Nixon

2 people to run it, but no resources allocated…

not even half the candidates had statements in the voter pamphlet and many didnt respond to questionnaires or anything.

That has been annoyingly common in elections all over the place for as long as I can remember.

You went to the effort of getting on the ballot, but you can’t be bothered to answer any questions or even tell people why they should vote for you?

which is just another way to call the voters dumb, but maybe they’re not wrong.

Given the outcome of the federal election, I’m increasingly convinced of that point.

Trump hires the worst people and creates a toxic “vie for the king’s attention” atmosphere.

Now thats a mutually assured destruction scenario I’d be in favor of.

And it explodes on the launchpad?

That is an acceptable outcome.

part of it is picking one that doesn’t drive me batty and taking some time to work with it

CAD and 3D modeling can look overwhelming for a beginner, but there are some tools that are pretty quick to pick up the basics of.

Tinkercad is probably the fastest for most people to get some basic results from.

Personally, I have been working on learning FreeCAD. The newest version is a major step forward in capability and the learning curve isn’t too steep - especially with some of the tutorials I’ve found on youtube.

Blender is it’s own beast - super powerful, but very different that anything else I’ve tries to use.

I doubt he cares that much. They’ve served their purpose for him.

how is it being forced?

Go rewatch Cool Hand Luke.

They should really attache the blue states to Canada and just call it a day.

Who says Canada wants them?

Most blue state voters would still be considered quite right wing by Canadian standards.

If he does the right thing, how long will it take for Trump to order that Merchan be arrested?

holding any such event in a country culturally and ecologically most similar to Mordor seems weirder.

Maybe they’re hoping for a “This is what your country will look like if everyone continues to ignore this problem” reaction from the attendees?

Or maybe it’s just the place that offered the most kickbacks to the organizers…
