What a leader, the MAGA crowd must be so proud of him.

That's the truth of it - the Electoral College is a thumb on the scale, but the fact that so many people were willing to vote for him, even after his convictions, even after the Access Hollywood tape, even after January 6th, is shocking. Something has gone terribly wrong in the USA.

I think at this point we have to consider the possibility.

Every MRI I've had has used a "focussing device" (don't know the technical term) - if they MRI your brain it's a sort of helmet thing, if they MRI your prostate it's a flat plate that sits on your abdomen. It's not possible to not know what they scanned, unless he's a total idiot.

The depressing thing is how predictable this all is - yes we're shocked at his constant failure to show any sort of humanity, but is anyone really surprised.

The financial services company I work for won’t let us use ChatGPT for just that reason, we have an internal copy of it to prevent sensitive data leaking. The idea that military officers would use ChatGPT for anything work related is appalling.

Bravo!

they are trying to persuade us that we can't do things that we've been doing perfectly well for millennia.

The end goal is conformity.
