On the plus side, this thread that Winston started should be good for another four years -- unless the gestapo shuts it down.

Does anyone here know how reliable the encryption is on the Signal app?

May I point out that Trump will behave unlike any other ex-President?

The tradition is that an ex-Pres will rarely (almost never) comment on the current President's policies or decisions. This will most certainly not apply to Trump; I would expect him to give a running commentary in the form of endless tweets ridiculing every decision or policy of the new administration.

Unless he is found culpable in some criminal misconduct, he would also see himself as the next Grover Cleveland (two discrete terms in office).

I'm afraid this thread is not going anywhere any time soon. There is still 8 more years of life left in it

This was before he was banned by Twitter four years ago.

Does anyone actually understand the weird objection to have tampon's in the men's room?

I understand that there's a bunch of ignorant bigots who get their panties in a twist over these sorts of issues, however, if you're talking to normal folks and not idiots, what's the issue?

I can think of plenty of times when a trip to the grocery store has involved my needing to buy tampons for a female friend.

Back when I was in junior high school or high school, a request from one of my friends to grab her a tampon would have probably been a bit awkward, but I think that society has a whole (and particular the younger portions of out society) have evolved significantly.

It's not about boys getting tampons for girls. It's for transgender boys who still menstruate but choose to use the boy's bathroom.

And that's why conservatives have a problem with it -- it acknowledges the needs of transgender students, and is seen as normalizing transgender rights.

These are the people who believe Trump's wild claim that kids are coming home from school with their sex changed.

Biden still has time to take advantage of presidential immunity and order the military to assasinate Trump.

BTW, I think we now have a definitive answer to the question in the thread title. Not only has it been trumped, but it's been doubled.
