@ChiWordNerd @jimstewartson I agree about the corruption, the gas prices and many other things. At the same time I do see the value in fixing things - it’s a bit like broken windows policing.

Jim Stewartson, Decelerationist 🇨🇦🇺🇦🇺🇸
1/3 You may see clips of Trump’s self-evident dementia, but the full effect requires stamina. Here is NINE MINUTES of Trump talking about his fountains in a Cabinet meeting. Try to read it. I dare you. “D.C. and D.C. is looking beautiful. The fountains are almost all open. We had 28 of them, and we have one in particular, a very long lake, we call it. They're reflecting lake between the Lincoln Monument. Nobody's ever seen anything like it. You take a look at between Lincoln and Washington. You have the longest, like 2,400 feet long. That's longer than the tallest building in the world, if you set it on your side. And it's almost 200 feet wide. And for-- actually, it was built in 1922. And from 1920 to '21, it really never worked. It always leaked. And it was a problem about things. And hundreds of millions was spent. The Biden administration and the Obama administration spent hundreds of millions of dollars trying to get it to work, and they failed. And we'll be spending-- you'll give me a number. But I think it's very low numbers, like in the number that we originally talked about. Where we cleaned it, we fumigated it, that we had 10 major truck dumpsters of garbage taken out. Can you believe it? Friend of mine came in. Very substantial person from Germany. Want to see the Washington Monument. I wanted to see the Lincoln Memorial. He said, I look, but that horrible reflecting pond is disgusting. It's filthy dirty and disgusting. I said, really, I drove down. I said, secret shares was taken dry. And we went down. I said, that's terrible. And for the most part, it didn't work. I mean, they wouldn't even have water in there. But when they did, it was just dirty, filthy water that leaked out. And we got to work on it. And they were supposed to cost almost 400, think of it, 400 million dollars, because it's like putting the skin on a skyscraper. But bigger, much bigger, many skyscrapers, you could almost say, other than for the world. So I think of it, the world's tallest skyscraper is shorter than 2,400 feet. So we went to work. And over the years, I built hundreds of pools. I built them every time I built them. I always like to build the Olympic size swimming pools. And I was very aware of swimming pool, what goes into making a swimming pool. It's not as simple as people think. You never wanted to leak. You want a beautiful surface. I said, you know, I have an idea, Doug. We sat down. I said, let's take that long thing where we're going to fix it with concrete, which leaks, concrete, all sorts of other materials that all leak and don't look good. They're gray. And swimming pool, I have a swimming pool right up the road. I built it 22 years ago. It's perfect. I said, does it ever leak, though? It's good contractors. I actually called it a couple of the contractors, got some ideas from them. And I gave it to Doug and Doug's done an unbelievable job. And so they were going to spend maybe 400 million dollars. I don't know. You never know with cost overruns and everything. But it was going to take years to build three years, four years. And we'll have it done before July 4th substantially, before July 4th. If we didn't have such a bad weather the last four or five days, it could have been almost done. We have to-- you can't do this substance in the rain. And what they did is they cleaned it. They took out, as I said, more than 10 dumpsters of garbage. Shovels, it was disgusting. Well, every corner, every corner, had massive amounts of-- I guess that's the way the tide goes. But at massive amounts of garbage, we then steamed clean it. We then sandblasted it. And then we pebble blasted. That's a bigger version of sand. We made the surface as good as it can be. Now we're now covering it with the most beautiful blue. Very thick, you think of it as a very sophisticated form of rubber. No leaks, no problems. And it's beautiful. It's called American Flag Blue that was the color we chose.”

@jko_laylow @NBCNews @elonmusk I think the adultery litmus test would find that an overwhelming number of politicians wouldn’t pass—and it might be the most bipartisan thing about Congress!

WHERE DID THE MONEY GO? According to several published reports Trump's Board of Peace is broke. Just four months after it was created, and after a number of countries pledged a billion plus dollars- the organization has no money? Where did it go? Your Thoughts?

Given Paxton's cheating on his wife, indictments and letting off a pedophile, how do People who call themselves Christian vote for him over a seminarian? Honest question. A vote for Paxton is making faith a lie.

Paxton: My opponent is the most extreme radical the Democrats have ever nominated. He's even running a vegan campaign, whatever that is. Others refer to him as Low-T Talarico.
