I like the idea, but I'm skeptical. The concern about egg prices ended on November 5. Eggs could be $20/dozen for the next four years and we wouldn't hear a damn word about it.
yeah, i have a friend (ex-friend really, we haven't talked in years) who is full maga and her sister was relaying to me that ex-friend claimed to be sOoOoOoOo concerned about grocery prices.....as she and her husband bought a cyber truck and matching mini cyber truck ($1k+) for their toddler.

This is why folks like lawtig and myself have always been skeptical of this "economic pain" narrative about MAGA. Their behavior doesn't match their rhetoric. And given the long, long, long history of white Americans, especially white Southerners, of using concerns about "economic anxiety" as justifications for oppression of others, I'd say it's mostly just cover for their real motivations.

It's really difficult to talk to any MAGA person for any length of time and come away thinking, "yes, that is a person genuinely concerned about inflation." Because they aren't, and they show it on the regular.

There are things that get some of our MAGAs REALLY FUCKING UPSET. None of them pertain to economics.

nailed it.

and yeah, the cyber truck and mini cyber truck purchases aside, my ex-friend and her husband are relatively wealthy. her even floating that "concerned about grocery prices" BS at her sister was absurd and insulting as shit and that's exactly what her sister said to her.
 
Canada would make the USA blue again. And OMG the magas would hate it.
They wouldn't give Canadians voting power. Conquerers generally don't enfranchise the conquered. Assuming even Americans will have another election.
 
Denmark should send envoys to Puerto Rico and talk about how the citizens wouldn’t be without basic utilities or a voice in government under Denmark’s flag.
Have you been to Denmark? The PM of Denmark ain't gonna be tossing paper towels to Puerto Ricans after a hurricane. Maybe meaningful redevelopment assistance, but not f'ing paper towels.

Trump would use this to claim that Denmark is the aggressor justifying his use of the military against Greenland.

While it may not make a difference, it just isn’t worth it for Denmark to do that.
 
And I'm here for it all. As an Independent who did not vote for this trainwreck, this is all setting up to be the most entertaining four years of my life. At the end of Trump's next term, our country is going to be in shambles, and MAGA will have to own it all. Perhaps then, finally, we can come together as a nation and have a meaningful conversation about a better path forward—with liberty and justice for all. Until then, keep the Mai Tais flowin' please!

Yes, as long as you are entertained, that's what's important. And MAGA will never own up to anything.
 
Also, I know that we're talking about a mouth-breathing idiot here, but shouldn't a Congressman know the difference between a territory (e.g. Greenland) and nations (i.e Canada and Panama)?

I’d never heard of him so I hit up wiki where learned he’s Dinesh D’Souza’s son in law.
