PotPie Member since: Oct 9, 2022 Threads: 5 Posts: 310 | . I'm thinking of the probability that Trump will be elected President despite the fact that he's obviously a criminal and views himself to be above the law - and the fact that his fervent supporters don't care about this - they love him so very, very much - and the fact that he very well may be elected despite being convicted of one or more of the many charges against him and it makes me remember the great quote from Alice in the book "Alice's Adventures in Wonderland" the state of our nation just gets "Curiouser and Curiouser" . the foolish sayings of a rich man pass for words of wisdom by the fools around him |

I would say that most of Georgia is nice. At my age a Life In Prison sentence is not much of a detrrent. |

Now, this is investigative journalism. And yes, we knew. Only thing left out was how much fuel used to transport all this stuff around. But hey, hey you are carbon neutral if you just export it, eh? The President is a fink. |

missedhervee Member since: Apr 23, 2021 Threads: 96 Posts: 3107 | The NY judge certainly is muzzling and embarrassing Trump, cutting through his BS like a hot knife through butter. Another fine for violating the gag order, plus a finding that Trump in talking about his intended target was "not credible." That should be Trump's epitaph, when finally laid to rest: "not credible." |

DoubleGold Member since: Jan 26, 2023 Threads: 30 Posts: 2506 | Alphabet, the firm, dropped close to one Nike today ($157.6 billion). The huge numbers don't make sense. They're too large to comprehend. And yes, nothing will ever truly be worth $1 trillion. Those are imaginary values (Zimbabwe cash). |

In my case it is too much traffic. I tend to fly in around 7:30am on Mondays and just going about 15 miles from the airport to the office on Mondays can take up to 2 hours. At my age a Life In Prison sentence is not much of a detrrent. |

DoubleGold Member since: Jan 26, 2023 Threads: 30 Posts: 2506 | I believe he left a little on the table, if she tests the 2007 low. But we're close to a huge bounce. I don't care for Bill much, but he makes impressive bets, including the $2.8 billion he profited a couple of years ago. ---------------------- Ackman's bet against US Treasuries pays off with $200 million profit October 25, 2023 . . .
