I will not shut up about the Mighty Morphin Power Rangers. I talk about them all the time and work them into every conversation I have. I built a shrine in my room for the yellow one who died because sadly no one noticed because she died around 9/11. Wanna see it?

Oh and in other news Trump is doing the whole 'maybe I won't leave after losing the election!' thing

quote:

WASHINGTON (AP) — President Donald Trump is refusing to publicly commit to accepting the results of the upcoming White House election, recalling a similar threat he made weeks before the 2016 vote, as he scoffs at polls showing him lagging behind Democrat Joe Biden. Trump says it’s too early to make such an ironclad guarantee.

“I have to see. Look ... I have to see,” Trump told moderator Chris Wallace during a wide-ranging interview on ”Fox News Sunday.” “No, I’m not going to just say yes. I’m not going to say no, and I didn’t last time either.” The Biden campaign responded: “The American people will decide this election. And the United States government is perfectly capable of escorting trespassers out of the White House.”

Trump also hammered the Pentagon brass for favoring renaming bases that honor Confederate military leaders — a drive for change spurred by the national debate about race after George Floyd’s death. “I don’t care what the military says,” the commander in chief said.

The president described the nation’s top infectious diseases expert, Dr. Anthony Fauci, as a “a little bit of an alarmist” about the coronavirus pandemic, and Trump stuck to what he had said back in February — that the virus is “going to disappear.” On Fox, he said, “I’ll be right eventually.” The United States tops the global death toll list with over 140,000 and confirmed infections, with 3.7 million.

It is remarkable that a sitting president would express less than complete confidence in the American democracy’s electoral process. But for Trump, it comes from his insurgent playbook of four years ago, when in the closing stages of his race against Hillary Clinton, he said he would not commit to honoring the election results if the Democrat won.

I don’t care what the military says. I do – I’m supposed to make the decision. Fort Bragg is a big deal. We won two World Wars, nobody even knows General Bragg. We won two World Wars. Go to that community where Fort Bragg is, in a great state, I love that state, go to the community, say how do you like the idea of renaming Fort Bragg, and then what are we going to name it?

We’re going to name it after the Reverend Al Sharpton? What are you going to name it, Chris, tell me what you’re going to name it? So there’s a whole thing here. We won two World Wars, two World Wars, beautiful World Wars that were vicious and horrible, and we won them out of Fort Bragg, we won out of all of these forts that now they want to throw those names away.

I’m sure someone from BRCC or some other odious vetbro company will be along to call them posers because their founders were only in SF and not a JSOC unit or that they got out after two enlistments or some inane bullshit like that.

"I'll be right eventually."

I just hope he's dead before he has the chance to be able to say "See? I said it would go away and it did, and in a way nobody's ever seen.".


He's lost control of the qualifiers. "Beautiful World Wars"? That reminds me of my "Uncle" (family friend, who found himself in India in WWII) walking out of a room when my paternal grandma once said to my maternal grandpa it "must've been so nice to serve in France with all that beautiful scenery and wine".

e- "All these beautiful Forts. Fort Bragg. Fort...Lauderdale. Fort Myers...Fort Walton Beach...Fort Wayne..."

Yeah, same boat. There are plenty of chuds on the officer side. At least 5 dudes from my ROTC became cops. Hell, an 18A I worked with regularly called me a communist and tried to explain that Slavery was actually good for black people in America and argued that monopolies are just part of being good at business.

To some extent, Donnie and the DHS want the jumping off. The problem for them is that they hosed it up very, very hard and went full unmarked gestapo, everyone in the state wants them gone, and local Portlanders are like "what siege? It's just a few blocks by the courthouse and the Portland PD has been poo poo for months now." Even the local conservatives are like "who cares, at most this is all annoying".

It also helps that mockery is the current overall response, since that's what the fascist idiots can't stand the most, while the lawsuits start flying.
