Dead_or_Alive@lemmy.worldto No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•Does trump know he cheats at golf?1·3 days agoNo argument here, a corrupt asshole is still a corrupt asshole no matter what they make think of themselves.
But because they can genuinely believe whatever bullshit comes out of their mouth others have no problem buying into it as well.
Dead_or_Alive@lemmy.worldto No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•Does trump know he cheats at golf?122·3 days agoTrump cheats, lies, rapes and steals. But I don’t think HE consciously thinks of anything he does as cheating, lying, raping and stealing.
People don’t tend to want to think of themselves as the bad guy. So they make up excuses to justify their behavior.
I worked for a small company and traveled with the owner frequently. Somehow we got on the subject of bonuses for the sales staff and he told me he often finds ways of reducing their bonus if they ever got a massive deal because they are salespeople and they would just waste the money and hurt themselves… In his mind he was responsible enough to handle the money rather than waste it. I’ve encountered similar altitudes and behaviors with more than a few business owners and wealthy people I’ve encountered. They hide behind many excuses for bad behavior.
The only reason Trump is scared is he knows how his base will see this.

They do satellite communications with better technology. Only 5 satellites to cover North America instead of the massive constellation Starlink requires.
They have contracts with the major NA cell services and contracts in place for other regions once they launch more satellites.

It is mostly comprised of deferred taxes. They only slashed a trillion from the budget. The rest is financed through increased debt.
The BBB will add over 3 trillion to the deficit which the public will pay one way or another.
Either higher taxes down the road, increased inflation or through higher interest rates… Most likely a combination of all three. But it will be paid.

Fundamentally it doesn’t matter if you are a good person. Even the nicest most moral of us are sinners in the eyes of Christians.
What matters is that you are forgiven by god for your sins. Even if you lie, cheat, steal, murder, commit adultery etc. Going to church and being absolved of your sins makes you a good person and welcome by god.
The worst people I have met are Christians for this very reason. They believe they have been absolved of their wrongs in the eyes of god and you have not.

Step1: Round up undocumented immigrants and criminals.
Step2: Put them in prison for “crimes”.
Step3: Profit! Lease them to farms for $1 a day. Since slavery is legal if you are incarcerated. Republicans are going to build an entire underclass of criminals who will do these jobs.
Bonus: None of the brown people or criminals will be able to vote because they are now felons. Farmers will cry and vote Republican if anyone even suggests doing away with the prison industrial system.

Victory for Russia in Europe isn’t necessarily rolling through Eastern Europe and Germany at the head of huge tank formations.
But taking the Baltic States and parts of Europe and sitting on them. Would Western Europe and the US come to the aid of those smaller NATO allies and engage in a potentially grinding war to throw Russian back?
Grabbing a few key areas while splitting NATO permanently… That it could do.

22 is too young. From a purely clinical point of view your brain isn’t done maturing and you haven’t hit the prime years of your life.
But there is no option in the US for male birth control and there is a chance that the vasectomy can be reverse, so do what you think you need t so. It’s not a chance I would take though.
