So the argument is that it was unfair to sell Infowars to The Onion, because they weren't the highest bidder - rather, the Sandy Hook parents approved of this bid, and not any others that were higher.

BUT... Those Sandy Hook parents also agreed to forfeit a portion of their settlement in exchange for favoritism towards the Onion, making that bid the one that would cover the largest number of settlement dollars, which is the primary goal of auctioning off his assets in the first place.

So good luck arguing against this sale. The Sandy Hook parents have $1.4B worth of settlement dues to work with, and they know that they aren't going to see most of it repaid in their lifetimes. They can keep conditionally forfeiting money until you'd need to pay hundreds of millions to acquire Infowars. If Elon decided to do that anyway, the cash would go straight to the parents, and he'd be opening himself up to massive liabilities the moment Alex Jones inevitably opens his mouth about Sandy Hook conspiracy shit on X.

You don't live in Britain where:

  • This is a name people have.
  • It's pronounced like that.

It doesn't matter if he lied. Whenever he accidentally says the correct thing, he needs to be praised. That's how you get him to do stuff. Bernie has the right idea here. Pat this dumb motherfucker on the back and make him feel smart every time he has a broken-clock moment. That way he'll follow through.

Ah yes, of course, Kamala was the more conservative option in the last election. Donald Trump is also an actual populist that cares about you. You are very smart. /s

I like how you put "trump" in all-caps bold to help us better recognize that you are on TEAM RAPIST.

Also, the state that always votes blue is happy with their situation, and the state that always votes red is begging for change. You really can't figure out how each state got into their respective positions?

Perhaps the state that wants change should try voting for someone other than a Republican every single election.

That red states are shittier than blue states. An objectively true fact.

Even other red states say this shit about redder states: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thank_God_for_Mississippi

Now is definitely not the time to rewrite the constitution. Could you imagine what the powers that be would do to it?

A drinking fountain and a fire hydrant both dispense water.
