We dont want it to flow freely, some of us are hoping for a certain kind of sudden detrimental obstruction.

I'm definitely calling people and waking them up to spread the joy, if it happens in the middle of the night

If I tear down part of my house and begin remodeling without a permit the city orders me to stop too. Surprise!

Especially if it isn't your house.

Speaking of which, don’t you wish you could put your primary residence, you know, the place where you’re registered to vote, in an LLC and deduct all of the expenses you incur from homeownership? Electric bill, water, sewer, gas, phone, internet, insurance, repairs, furniture, food, and alcohol as long as you charge a membership fee to visitors?

Maybe you should just follow the law instead of bypassing them. we have laws checks and balances for reasons.

And he has a team of attorneys who probably told him as much, and Congress will do whatever he asks. Just follow the rules, old man.

When is he not raging?

I bet it was hilarious to see! I wish they would broadcast his rages, Trump shuffling around trying to stomp in his high heels. Maybe trying to throw a diet Coke at someone and the can just goes a few feet and spills soda on a gold carpet.

They’re more worried about sports, ballrooms, and Disney trips than the war we’ve been thrust in to…

Not so long ago, judges ruled based on the law, not on who happened to appoint them.

Most still do. Pointing out who appointed them just draws political outrage, which generates clicks.

MJcorrieviewer Mar 31, 2026 +1
It's more than that - we've seen many Trump-appointed judges do his bidding even in contravention to the law. Just look at the current SC.

I love the way some people think that blatant age discrimination is perfectly acceptable. Imagine saying "we need to start asking ourselves some hard questions about this" if the judge were female or a minority.

No. They’re too f****** old. Thomas Jefferson was 33 years old when he drafted the declaration of independence. We have the most corrupt administration in history while the other party twiddles their thumbs and awaits the protest vote so they can rule like its 1998 again. They are too old.

Bro. Comparing skin color and gender to cognitive decline ain’t it… but you already know that. As people age they lose their ability to make sound decisions. It’s just how life works. 80 year olds should not be in Washington and they should not be on the bench.

Cognitive decline is not something that every person experiences. Assuming that cognitive decline is just something that happens automatically once you hit a certain age is (a) wrong, and (b) the textbook definition of discrimination. I have a grandmother who is 98 years old and is as mentally sharp today as she ever was. Thousands of people above the age of 75 still continue to be in the workforce. Going back to the person I was replying to, he mentioned Thomas Jefferson being 33, yet conveniently ignored the fact that Ben Franklin was 70, and was politically active until he was into his 80s. Bernie Sanders continues to serve, and he's 84. I don't hear a lot of people complaining about him. I don't assume every black person has Sickle Cell Anemia. I don't assume every woman has osteoporosis. I also don't assume that every person above a certain age just has dementia or something by default. Show me cognitive decline, and I'll support removing the person based on that cognitive decline, not just assume that he must be suffering from cognitive decline simply on the basis of being old. You're advocating for and supporting blatant age discrimination solely on the assumption that they must be suffering from cognitive decline simply because of how old they are, while offering exactly zero evidence to support it.

You should ask yourself why any judges are politically appointed and fix that issue. Plus life time appointments, but politicizing the judicial is the main issue.

>You should ask yourself why any judges are politically appointed and fix that issue.   Plus life time appointments, Both of those are rules set by the Constitution.

And constitutions are not set in stone. It’s not a positive thing that the constitution is more than 200 years old and not revised. Times changes and so should the constitution.

You might wanna check and see what goes into passing a Constitutional amendment.

If it’s impossible, then it’s a bad constitution to begin with. I’m not saying it should be easy, but other countries can update their constitutions and get them up to modern times.

You made perhaps the dumbest possible assumption you could have made about what I wrote. But hey, at least you "love" age discrimination. Gold star for you.

No worries! Sub to it because it doesn’t give his shit hole of a site any extra clicks, it’s bonkers though, so consider yourself pre-warned!

It's been his pet project since the beginning. Also, his go-to for everything. Charlie Kirk questions? Ballroom. Iran conflict? Ballroom. Gaza? Ballroom. Epstein? Who? Ballroom. If he doesn't have this project, he has nothing.
