Yeah the fourth year in a row he said fully self driving cars are going to be market ready in a few months it really sank. Also remember when Google was trying to develop a self driving car and got millions of dollars and several years into the testing process and concluded modern technology is so far away from being able to make a self driving car that they stopped trying for the foreseeable future? That's fascinating.

We can try!

You can try, but the dementia will always win as it's a progressive disease with no cure.

Before the disease takes its toll, I have found alcoholics and addicts to be genuinely smart people. Priorities are usually a bit out of whack, but other than that, I usually can't say anything too bad unless there is some serious criminal activity at play.

While I don't go to AA anymore due to some core philosophical disagreements, there is still some good content to be found. Mainly, that alcoholics and addicts are simply sick, in the context of this discussion.

Once you get past the outward issues usually on display, there are real people behind the mask of addiction. Unfortunately, it's only a matter of time before the brain-rot kicks in and most hope is lost. (I have seen some really cool recovery cases though.)

Hell yes, me too! My right wingers are gonna feel the sting from that one!

You're mistaking what he means for what I do.

So he's selling that old lie that getting a big rally or parade going is equivalent to votes cast and any numbers outside of those expectations is somehow a terrible injustice?

To be clear, that's the only sense that people have managed to make of it. That doesn't mean that was actually what he was referring to.

My wife has an apple watch, I assumed he was talking about those circles.

This is the best explanation of his cult that I have ever seen! Wow. Honesty VP Harris should just read off your explanation in her next attack ad.

No joke, you should consider cleaning that up and posting it.

I need to save this, because it's so well put.

There’s been this idea circulating among Christians that Trump is actually chosen by God to help protect his people. This is because there are instances in the Bible of “outsiders” being chosen by God to protect the Jews in the Old Testament. They just see it as another one of those instances. Now, we’re dealing with faith. They can overlook his gaffes, his very un-Christian behaviors, bad perspective on reality, all of the issues. Because they know he’s not one of them. They don’t care. They have faith that he will protect them and deliver the United States to Christian rule despite his seemingly sinful ways.

It's a common tactic on the right. Trump says some nonsense. Then the left makes fun of it for being nonsense. Then the right pretends there is a reasonable explanation besides Trump's mind deteriorating. They use this made up explanation to attack the left's intelligence for not getting the made up explanation. When in fact they are in engaging in bad-faith gas lighting to cover for Trump's incoherence and incompetence.

It would be useful to ask them why they feel the need to make stuff up to cover for Trump's failings. Since the justification they made up isn't real, Trump just rambles incoherently, there is nothing to get. It's summarized by the saying the emperor has no clothes. edit: typo
