I never thought TV's Frank would be so fucking cool but here we are. He's got a point.

Maybe he has secret service drive over it a few times to make it road kill, and then he will eat it.

All the racists will see this as the win they wanted. Any downside will be due to disconnected issues and none of them will learn or care to understand.

Trump promised to drain the swamp on his first term and has Project 2025 to gut the government on his second term. He is changing the system as he has promised. Most of us with common sense see him as a maniac who is undermining democracy itself but the people who voted for him got the systemic change they wanted. The current system isn't work for them and they voted to change it. They have been crushed enough by the current system that they don't mind the possibility of a nightmare factory as much as the reality that they have to live with.

Everything is so expensive and someone needs to change it. They voted for a disaster but it is a difference.

"Ah hell, it's an engine. Get me 1200 liters of whale oil!"

"Ok. What's a liter?"

The DNC cynically used Walz and his progressive programs to hide how business focused and right wing they have become. They lost because the election was between a right wing and far right wing party and the majority of the conversation before the election were right wing topics. Clearly the team that screamed loudest would win.

Early alpha builds of Brainograph left a long line of broken grad school students before rebranding to Cerebro.

"the economy is the best it's ever been" for whom? I'm broke, worried about making rent and it's Christmas season. The only thing I have to give is my usual "humbug" attitude as I worry about how I am going to manage after the holidays.

The economy sucks. Businesses aren't people. They don't have to worry about eating. I do. They don't have to worry about missing a rent payment because they have credit. I don't have enough. The entire system is rigged and the Democrats keep ignoring us. I hated Harris when she ran for herself but I voted for her because I didn't want to lose my freedom - but with Dems it's some other loss of freedom no one talks about or admits exists. We are practically bound to our work, many people us identify as the job we have. "Oh hi Bob, what do you do?" Is boomer code for knowing what kind of respect to give a person. Democrats support losing our identity to the industry that employs us.

Business centric politics is hurting the people who are making the business run.

If you don't study wordonomics, how can you call yourself a scienstician?

Tesla is expected to sell like crazy because they are one of the only EV carmakers to not be hit full force by tariffs. However, given the public reception of Musk, the car brand may see a long term decline as fewer vehicles are purchased in the US and EU for different reasons. Chinese EVs will sink EU and APAC sales and people don't want to give Elon any of their money if they can help it.

Tesla also doesn't create any new vehicle models or redesign of their initial line up that was created 12 years ago. He's coasting on the demand and has no plans for doing anything different. I would expect Tesla to hit hard times after a decade or so.

TL;DR - a small bump in sales followed by a steady fall off before Trump Part Deux is done.
