save the frogs

The same reason IT guys like Steve Jobs stopped wearing a suit and tie and went to work in jeans. To break existing norms. Might be the first time ever a little boy is present in an oval office interview. And even the way Elon was dressed. Maybe the first person ever not to wear a tie in the oval office.

You can put patches on your jean jacket if you want to make a statement with art.

OP mentions Lupus. Never heard that before, but AI confirms this. So there is some health risk involved, although maybe it's not very high.

yeah, that could be the scam going on. maybe they are just moving money around for elon's special projects. however, i think self-driving cars are going to be a good thing, and that is one of elon's projects.

good point. these 2 guys should probably not be fully trusted. keep an eye on them. also, DOGE and DOGE-Coin ... same acronym.

a lot of people would be happy to pay that to get off the hook all he has to do is refuse and go to court if he's feeling confident that he won't be convicted

Elon says there is full transparency and they post everything they do on their X Doge site. Seems to me like they are legitimately going after corruption in govt bureaucracy that has gone unchecked for a long time. Edit: So Trump claims that DOGE will track down around 1 Trillion dollars in corruption taking place in govt bureaucracy.

Now, Elon says there are people who are 150 years old on social security. Obviously, they're dead, so there is some sort of scam going on there.

at 4:40, Elon mentions that many govt officials have 6 digit salaries, but their net worth is in the 10's of millions. Elon might actually be helping to weed out this corruption which is contributing to the country's debt. again, I wonder if most people are misunderstanding what Elon and Trump are up to and interpreting it completely the opposite way.

early on in the video, trump claims that "we are trying to weed out corruption and judges want to stop us from looking for corruption". now elon has started talking and he claims what they are doing is "restoring democracy". Elons says "we don't live in a democracy, we live in a bureaucracy". this video is a must watch! take a break from bob's threads and watch this, kids. maybe most people misunderstand what trump is doing.

but they might be narrow-minded people fixed in their ways who are blocking things that shouldn't be blocked. grabbing more power doesn't necessarily mean grabbing power for himself for the sole greedy purpose of grabbing power nefariously. although it could. but it could also just mean he wants to get sh*t done quickly without being blocked by endless bureaucracy.

no, susan lea was a different person who also had multiple incarnations and then disappeared mysteriously.

some words of wisdom for you guys:

Bob, Do you know if expats in Cambodia spend less time talking about Trump? I'm thinking of moving to Cambodia to get a break from American politics. Thanks.

that was the MAIN point you wanted to get across with this thread, right? take a jab at the pattaya crowd?

so don't mix kratom and alcohol, especially if you're on the verge of a nervous breakdown is what i'm getting from this.

Is this your 2nd thread bashing Elon? I'm looking forward to self-driving cars and robots. Elon is at the forefront of both. Unless robots kill us all. Then I take it back and I hate Elon!

maybe based almost entirely on his obnoxious personality. no one knows what he will do. since he's in bed with elon, and elon is pushing self-driving cars, i expect self-driving cars to take off in the next few years. a lof of people don't like the idea of self-driving cars. but no one knows 99% of what he will do yet.

Regarding being pompous and overbearing, when you're in a powerful position do you really need to act timid and have false humility? I've seen people with way less power (or no power) just as pompous and over-bearing. As Shakespeare said, "there is nothing good or bad. Only thinking makes it so." Maybe the status quo needs to be upended and maybe the world needs someone who is more outside the box than most other politicians. No one knows what he will do yet, so how can you judge?

Yes, and that's automatically seen as a bad thing. Before the CCP took control of China, there were a bunch of warlords fighting each other. Is that good for any country? Or is it better to have one party and stability and peace within a country? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Warlord_Era The Warlord Era was the period in the history of the Republic of China between 1916 and 1928, when control of the country was divided between rival military cliques of the Beiyang Army and other regional factions. It began after the death of Yuan Shikai, the de facto dictator of China after the Xinhai Revolution had overthrown the Qing dynasty and established the Republic of China in 1912. Yuan's death on 6 June 1916 created a power vacuum which was filled by military strongmen and widespread violence, chaos, and oppression.
