    the real test will be policy vs popularity contest. when issues come back up to see how people feel about them and whether or not republicans follow.

    trump backpedaled on proj 2025 hard.  so he is gonna navigate public opinion, which was largely against project 2025 and its drastic measures, and the people that bought his way back to power. 

    government agencies— you don’t have to go far to find waste. there are draconian measures to take and there are success measures to improve. watch to see if recommendations are about “here’s what we fix and how we measure success” like companies that win in the stock market or “here’s all the dumb dumbs we are getting rid of and the plan is have government stop doing anything”.  insert post office opinion here. 

     schools. the problem will be if people are ok with soaring private school funding, access and availability at the expense of public schools funding and quality. is it a long term plan to rid the country of immigration and ensure a large population of poorly educated americans to take their place in the economy?  maybe. sounds like a group of people that want to rest on their laurels and are scared of competing. 

    war sucks. endlessly supplying ukraine sucks. the country that started the war is the one all the companies pulled out of.  any interest in stopping the war that sounds like “just redraw the border” and also doesn’t include “rebuild repair” is defeat not compromise.  remember people saying putin was a better christian than biden.  that was unbelievable. 

    guns. people that brandish guns to feel more masculine and secure are hiding the same scaredy cat bs that bullies hide. that extreme has to go away.  look at third world countries and toyota tacomas full of armed militia. same emotions as trump trains. j6’ers were conned into believing lies and look what they did. guns are absolutely an asset to our country. gun lust is not.  will we get better or worse there?

    so the honeymoon period will get tested soon enough.

    “Magats” nice @caliking.  The main theme of your response was Lies! Lies!  The democrats have been trying to hide the biggest lie in my lifetime, Joe Bidens cognitive health, or the vaccine will stop the spread. They all lie, Kamala is pro fracking lol.   

     “It should be noted that many brave patriots have suddenly become more vocal on the forum”
     Democrats never stop man, 2016-2020 the home page of this forum 80% trump bashing 20% bbq posts. Look at Reddit, melting down. You guys never stop crying and pushing your agenda and if someone doesn’t agree with it you attack by throwing tantrums or acting like you are better than everyone who didn’t vote with you. A few weeks ago a member posted that it’s great that we supply weapons to kill Russians, I was more of the opinion that war is bad, kids fighting kids and no one wants to be there, so I was accused of “publicly supporting Putin”.  I guess the republicans don’t see a need to push their agenda online and be attacked by a bunch of keyboard cowboys.
    There's a point in there somewhere. I think. Maybe?

    And, how many guesses do you need to figure out who this brave patriot voted for?

    I saw someone write that racism and sexism is the yeast that makes the MAGA bread rise.  

    Before some of you jump on me for that, let me be clear that this is not the same thing as saying that everyone who voted for Trump is a racist or a sexist, or even that this is somehow the main reason he won.

    As if on queue, there is this news:



    For those of you who don't know Miller, this profile of him from the SPLC is worth a read:

    And yes, I know he is a Duke grad.  Sigh.

    It should be noted that many brave patriots have suddenly become more vocal on the forum. Somehow, someone "not losing" an election drove them underground for a few years, but now they're back out of the woodwork. 
    It should be noted that not all of us on here are millionaires. For the past 4 years many of us normal working class folks have been broke and crippled due to Biden and Harris’s reign of terror on the working class. We couldn’t afford internet. Hell we couldn’t hardly afford anything. 
    However a few days ago something changed. A sudden peace and prosperity started spreading across the land. The burden suddenly was a little lighter. The ole wallet a little heavier. The bank account a little greener. It is almost as if God himself cast us a lifeline. But you can rest assure that for the next 4 years we are back. Peace and prosperity shall reign across the land. Not utter nonsense and stupidity like we have seen for the past 4 years. Glory glory Trumpeluja !!!!! May Trump bless us all.

    I can’t put my finger on it fellows but I feel good. It’s like a burden or weight has suddenly left my shoulders.  I think I now know how mighty Atlas felt when he sat the world down for a second and shrugged.

    If you are getting a 3/4 ton look at the Rams.  They have a coil spring rear suspension that rides like a dream both loaded and unloaded.

    F250, in my experience, ride harsh when unloaded.

    Now if you are getting a 1ton, then the Ford all day long.  The Ram has a leaf spring rear end on their 1tons so no benefit over the Ford.

    If they could just admit they crave the footlong, there wouldn't be so much manufactured and misplaced hate.
    Love you bro!

    Subway really did give all of us the shaft on the footlong.  On this point, we stand united!  11 inches ain’t a foot, damnit!

    The biggest travesty is that Ireland courts ruled that Subway’s bread isn’t real bread. 

    The court ultimately ruled that Subway's bread contained too much added sugar to legally be considered bread, and that it should really be regarded as confectionery.

    Having a pedophile as a spokesman didn’t do Subway any favors.

    We have a new border czar. I think this one will actually do his job. He strikes me as a God fearing man. Time will tell.
