We are a nation of rules and the rules are boring. Embrace that. In times of difficulty, go with the boring option. When faced with a frightening crisis, tamp it down with ultra-boring moves. No matter what, stick with the rules.

I can’t avoid talking about Donald Trump but I’m going to make it brief. I know you don’t like him; neither do I. But let’s assume he’s only a politician. He’s not Hitler, Godzilla or the Beast of the Apocalypse—just a guy with a loud mouth and a desperate need for attention. Most Americans think of him that way.

This is not about him. It’s about you.

    Sir, are you trying to provoke me?

    What’s funny is how confidently you comment on things you obviously didn’t read and don’t understand.

    It would be easy enough for you to check if I’m lying or not, I won’t bother to post links cuz I know you won’t read em. But since you asked so nicely, -and for anyone reading this who isn’t aware- it’s pretty well documented that Trump told Anthony Pratt, an Australian, a bunch of details about US nuclear submarines he shouldn’t have shared. Pratt turned around and repeated everything he had heard to just about anyone who would listen. Kid Rock told Tucker Carlson in an interview that He and Trump were “looking at maps and shit” and Kid Rock had the presence of mind to ask “Should I be in on this shit?”

    Anyway this isn’t about him and if you had read the article posted by OP you would know this isn’t about him. I really want to encourage you to try reading articles before commenting on them, it would make discussion better for everyone.

      You made the claim he showed documents. Are saying you lied as now it’s changed to he’s accused of telling someone something.

      Those are not the same thing. Don’t get upset when someone call you because you’re tell fibs.

        Is English a second language for you? If another language would be easier for you, please let me know and I can translate the part you didn’t understand.
