He reminds me of my late dad who, when I bought and renovated my house, told me I should get a textured ceiling and was appalled by my wife's color choices.

I wrote my MLA last month re: BC Ferries purchasing new vessels from China rather than locally. I also made versions of that letter for people living in NDP and opposition ridings and put on my union's website so members across BC could do likewise.

Also, who the hell wants a ballroom in the year 2025? That's like a White House Polynesian restaurant or a carvery. Everything about him is just so dated.

Because it's driving a wedge between Trump and his supporters. Cheap at twice the price.

The year my dad threw his back out and proceeded to yell and berate my oldest brother about how he carved the turkey while he laid prone on the floor.
My other brother and I took sides. Dad got so mad that he tried to get up, ranting while brother taunted him with an electric carving knife.

Tariffs destroy prosperity. America’s jobs and growth are at stake. True then. True now.

What I am bad at is food waste. I throw out too many vegetables.

Yes and I know what is on sale, where and the relative quality vs. cost at the four stores I shop at. I don’t worry about it too much when I’m flush but I can stretch the hell out of a dollar at the grocery store when I need to.

We can’t shop together. We have opposed strategies. Since my vastly better half doesn’t drive, that leaves it to me.

It will be allowed to continue until 218 reps and 67 senators are more afraid of you than they are of him. That's a heavy lift and I'm sorry for you but the burden of democracy is that only you (collective) can save you (also, collective). Start organizing. Bedevil your electeds with your demands.
