The same people who bitch endlessly about politicians being corrupt and useless are the people who vote for reagan over Carter and trump over Biden, and somehow never make the connection.

“He tried to leave America a little better than he found it. He attempted to warn Americans about the challenges we’d face over the next five decades. Our own legacy shows we were completely unwilling to heed those warnings.”

It is the same for any electorate, at any time, unfortunately. From the time of Solon and Pericles all the way up to today. People do not want hard truths, candor, limits. They’d rather think (and be told) that they are exceptional and intelligent and that the future is bright.

Reagan promised wealth, abundance and a revitalization of the American dream (for some, anyway).

My Republican father who was an engineer in a nuclear power plant highly respected Carters experience as a nuclear engineer and submarine commander. When Carter introduced the solar panel tax credit he immediately installed them on the roof of our house where they not only provided a more than adequate source of hot…

Jimmy was the first POTUS I voted for. The rest of the country went with the “trickle down theory”. And we all see how that went.

And I don’t say that to be sensationalistic, I…

And two weeks later, find yourself being pulled over, at gun point, for reported vehicle theft...and that it’s a vehicle associated with Musk just makes it a double ‘ah, hell naw’!

assuming Tesla will honor it on a used rental car

I’d rather drive my 8 year Prius with 250K miles. I wouldn’t want to be associated with Tesla or Elon musk

Eew.  Then I’d have to make a Hertz rental and own a Tesla.  That’s a dookie double dose.

It’s nice to get at least a glimmer of good news while Elon actively works to burn down democracy as the Trump puppeteer. 

Hard no!

Apparently, Tesla thinks it has a better chance of selling them to Canadians rather than Americans

Yeah, but he’s already a billionaire. Not like $20m means anything to him at that point.

Finally, a late-model Porsche drops in value.
