    Elon musk shuts down govt

    If your concerns are our debt, check out how that went during Trump’s last run. In this bill he wants to eliminate the debt ceiling and made comments that our debt is a meaningless number

    We’ll see. The one guarantee is Elon via his mouthpiece Donald will claim a yuge victory over the evil Democrats!

    Yep. The dog and pony show just ends up costing more. Maybe this time will be different!

    Elon musk shuts down govt

    I tend to agree it’s not world ending. In the past these things just end up costing more money to cover all the stuff that didn’t happen when we were shutdown and people are inconvenienced. It is a sign of disfunction to perform their most basic task however. That Elon seems to have spearheaded is unusual, but unusual is what I expect from a Trump WH.

    Trump, or Elon which is crazy, killed something that was going to get through Congress. Now we are here with a potential shutdown, It’s not a question it is was happened was my point.
  6. Have another drink there, rummy. Then tomorrow head to McD’s!
  7. Eating a Sausage McMuffin with Egg and Hashbrown after a night of debauchery is indeed a treat. Perfect hangover food. You should try it, three peat!
  8. Sausage McMuffin with Egg and a Hashbrown - placed inside. Honestly, two of those. Always eating this after I was shitcanned and love it. Outside of those, and I start by saying, I am not anti-fastfood and I have enjoy it from time to time for years. The last few visits however have been pretty awful even with low expectations. I doubt my pallet has improved, I think they have finally squeezed so much out of the crap to save pennies it has reached the tipping point

    Solid point! Watching the game, drinking a cocktail, my Chinese food just got delivered. This is a lame hobby but what can you do!

    My personal wealth almost doubled. I’m pretty happy with how last four years worked out. Hopefully bozo the orange clown and his collection of dipshet nuthuggers can do as well!

    Might as well go full nuts since we elected Trump twice. Fock it put Elon in Speaker spot. Put Chuck E Cheese on the Supreme Court. My wife and I are set and have no kids. Let’s get crazy

    Why wouldn’t the deep state bootlickers just prosecute him??!?

    Herschell Walker - Bahamas Ambassador

    I gotta say Bahamas ambassador would be bad ass. What a gig. More of a South Pacific fan personally, but Bahamas would do. Alternate choices: Italy (I’d post up in the north mountain area) or Austria or New Zealand.

    Sure. Strike was flabbergasted at the idea that Trump did this

    This is all fine. What started this off is that we are here at this point because Trump and Elon killed the deal that would have been passed. You seemed to think this was impossible or something.

    There you go. Own it. This has been one of my points all night!

    I gave you the link to answer all your questions. I’m not your errand boy The point is that the majority didn’t get this deal through and a number of their own party jumped on board against it.

    Again not sure the circumstances of the stadium stuff but that does provide a lot of cheddar to all involved! Builds up an area where it is, makes a destination, etc. I am all for businesses getting tax breaks BTW

    38 republicans voted against this “clean bill” along with all the Dems. No clue why but that’s what happens when it’s all last minute. The original spending bill was shitcanned by Don.

    Not sure what you are referring to, but I’d guess something like this is usually some rich fock framing it as a jobs thing or good for business and generating taxes. Ask Elon he knows all about government shilling for business!

    There you go. This was what Trump wanted when he, and Elon, scuttled the deal. I knew we’d get there!

    I’m kind of enjoying the show TBH. That Congress goes through this every year or so isn’t the best however.
