    While I understand your odd penchant to view world aspects via a somewhat warped Jeffersonian Bent, I will give you the benefit of the doubt concerning this ATTICA! ATTICA! moment you are availing yourself of, by attempting to portray a persona of a dutiful soldier emphasizing incorrect (as you interpret) information that adds to you your personal Quixote Quest to belittle POTUS, as another victory that proclaims your Righteousness.

    No. I would have supported you, had you attempted honesty, via familiarizing yourself with the history.....recent.... of DNC, the Government, the failed and failing
    paths that the present "GOVERNMENT" has and continues to follow, that are a multi-level curtain of deception of appearance of equality and human rights of the inhabitants.

    Had you listened and viewed the Meeting, you would have understood the link, inclusive of the upcoming G20 Gathering, that were emphasized by POTUS, as "....headline after headline...." of killing and abuse in the FORMER Communist leadership continuing, and courting Red Chinese and Soviet monetary influence, and now to do so with the U.S., by offering to step down as G20 leader and asking POTUS to Chair, because of the IMPORTANCE to the World.

    Might you have not understood that the esteemed Oval office Visitor, who is the present G20 leader and his "position" of "cooperation" with the African Union (BTW, AU has this year been invited-lookitup as to the "sponsor" for the membership), and why the U.S. and POTUS are refusing to attend?

    I could continue verbally smacking you around, but I won't, because I don't enjoy correcting supposedly intelligent persons that are willfully ignorant of the subject being discussed.

    I will simply hope that I have given you pause, and you will visit a location of learning (there are many in ROK) to inform you of facts.

    I have an idea: maybe visit the many U.S. Military Base libraries-many...that are easy for you to reach, followed by a visit to the excellent Youngsan University Central Library, and then ( and I realize you will tend to pinch your nose closed) the U.S. Embassy in Seoul, to ask question.

    Did you perhaps know that ROK is also a member of the G20?

    In a way, it appears Trump wants what I want. Mega-corporations pay more taxes. That's what I'm getting out of him telling U.S. companies to "eat the tariffs" instead of passing them on to the consumer. Doubt they actually do that, but at least taxes will rise one way or another (massive de facto sales tax in this case). Not in a way that will help people though.

    Rich people always want consumption taxes though, it radically favors them. I recall calls in the election to eliminate income tax and replace it with increased sales tax. Don't be fooled by that. It shifts the tax burden from the wealthy to the lower and middle class.

    Just look at what's happening, a massive sales tax is being added via the tariffs, while at the same time a tax cut for the wealthy is being pushed through congress. It couldn't be more clear he's gutting the middle and lower classes to watch out for the wealthy.

    Victor Davis Hanson truly sums up President Trumps 'inner workings' exceptionally well.
    I dare you to watch/listen to this summation, GW. I would truly like to hear your thoughts.

    I will do that. May not get a chance today, but I promise I will get back to you on this sometime this week after watching

    Okay, I read the transcript and was a bit confused. Then I watched it (maybe the transcript was bad, youtube does them automatically afterall).

    I still don't fully understand the point you're trying to make with it. It was largely a stream of consciousness of loosely strung together culture war talking points with AI videos overlaid.

    Now, I found a different almost identically named video by that channel which seems focused on tariffs, but it's over a half hour long. So before I dive into that, can you confirm if this is the video you meant to share? Or was it the first one?

    SHAADAAAPPPP.

    It is Memorial Day tomorrow.
    Do something useful for the day by typing ANYTHING that projects your Gratitude for the Warfighters that died to preserve YOUR Freedom.

    Then, visit a Military Cemetery.... there are many in South Korea.

    Or go to a Memorial Day parade and applaud the service of survivors marching past you.

    It's not too late to redeem yourself, @GeneWright. American Soldiers participate in Memorial Day parades in South Korea on June 6th.

    Very hypocritical of you referring to the two in the wrong gender.

    I think that simply reflects the fact that he doesn't (want to) know the difference.

    I don't think that matters

    "Misgendering is the act of using the incorrect gender when referring to another person. It might involve using incorrect pronouns, using the wrong gendered name, or arguing with a person about their gender.

    Misgendering may be accidental. For example, a person mightTrusted Source mistake a nonbinary person for being a different gender and use incorrect pronouns until the person corrects them. It can also be intentional.


    Intentional misgendering can be a tool of sexism and transphobia. Some people use it as a deliberate tool of oppression to harm people whose gender or gender expression they disagree with."

    I only hope that we can all continue to go down this road. Being able to make light of things like this and find it funny rather than offensive is the root of being human.... The last four years I was so uptight about how to address business letters and the like. We are going the right direction if we can once again start to laugh at ourselves over nonsensical stuff like this. On this one I applaud @GeneWright

    I’m kinda wondering now that Democrats are back in love with Musk if the arson and vandalism will continue against Teslas.

    I would imagine that all the liberal snobs in California who drive Teslas are breathing a sigh of relief because they know that conservatives won’t act so childish by harming their Teslas.

    Liberals may or may not run to Musk, but I doubt he's intersted. Leftys still hate him, don't see that changing.

    Liberals would drag sacks of manure under their big tent if they thought that would gain them more power in DC.

    I doubt Musk would indulge such shallowness.

    So, I see we're going full facism lately. To anyone still supporting this madness, how's that boot taste?
