Biggest crash in stock market history?

I would normally stay away from this conversation but DT's work played a role in the headlines we are seeing. Part of Putin's calculus was a US with hollowed out State Department and ...I can keep going, but this actually not the point. DT was and is an opportunist seizing his "base" as a way of hijacking the Republican party and eroding its principles and values of conservatism and replacing them with misogyny, deceipt, and disregard for the fragility of democracy. If you have read your history, you know where this can go. The Atlantic won't always be a nice barrier shielding us from madness of totalitarian states. We are now seeing totalitarianism incubated here via flagrant prevention of access to voting and the questioning of its results through disinformation about the voting process. One can blame the Republicans for being spineless but I place blame firstly with the individuals who comprise this "base". What do you see when you look in the mirror? Enjoy your ride today.

Hmmm, I don't do politics. Politics are just the puppets the 1%ers control. You're watchi g what the rich want you to see. What did I do to "seize" my base? I like guns, I like gays, trans, mtbnjers all equally. I moved to Md because the schools in my old neighborhood were declining and they were improving where I moved. I didn't like all the incoming population(asshole new yorkers 😀) that ruined parks like hartshorne and Huber, the restaurant scene, the commute etc .I still miss Jersey but I am a +/- guy and NJ was more of a - and MD more of a + when I was looking to relocate. We did attempt to stay in NJ initially, it just didn't work out. The only two things I regret about MD are the DMV and lack of Taylor Ham.

Maybe all DT's are all about me.

Bottom line is why did Putin stay sequestered for 4 years? Why did NK pipe down? China rattled the cage a little but only because they, like NK, like to stay in the spotlight. Because Trump wasn't a *****. Biden is a *****. It's all about who has their finger on the trigger at this moment. Dictators aren't complicated, they act when they feel the gettin' is good. Way of the world - strike when the iron is hot. Until we have someone with balls again the White House, this is what we live with. May the 80 million who voted with their transgendered bathroom toilet paper enjoy the shit show. I guess the rest of us are forced to enjoy it as well.
 
Ok, I'm going out for dinner & a show tonight. I have left my Ban Hammer (by the same people who make Thor's Hammer) out on the kitchen table. When I get home, if this has further devolved into a shit show I'll be dishing out bans like Putin throws away the lives of both Russians & Ukrainians.

That sounds important, but let's not let it slide DT mentioned Maryland DMV is worse than NJ's.

It's like we found out Hell has an even scarier torture room in the basement.

Hmm, in this case I will nominally allow it. I don't have a problem with the post, per se. I don't like the tenor of the attack on DT specifically. I don't think that's fair. As for political slant, I've gotten several complaints/questions about @rick81721 and his signature, and while I do not agree with turning this forum into a political battleground/pissing match, I don't really think it's worth the hoopla of making it an issue. That said, my posting this makes it an issue. I know that. I'm not an idiot.

I reserve the right to change my mind, heap whatever I deem necessary, temporarily ban people, edit signatures, and so on.

LONG LIVE THE MTBNJ DICTATORSHIP!

Of course, @Patrick could change my username to Balls of Jello if he so desires. Let's call it a bit if a lazy dictatorship. Elmo Shrug.

Just make me a mod I'm sure you guys can build it out where every post I cleanse and every ban I hand out I suffer the same fate.

Example I ban Rick for 10 days I get a 10 day ban, you know this is genius and your polling among padded taint wearers will increase >15%.

Sometimes my genius surpasses my expectations.

Anyway don't take my word let trump tell you how much your ad revenue will go up

Prove Max wrong!
 
Can't believe those posts from Saturday stuck around. Seems waaaaay over any kind of line and not something I'd want associated with a site that I spend time on.
