Guessing there's gonna be a ton of pressure on Trump to build new plants quickly. Can Trump order states to bring their shuttered nuclear plants online?

Microsoft plans to bring 3 mile island back for their AI needs and they project a rebook date of 2028. New electrical plants would be something that carries over into the Vance administration.
If a Democrat wins in the 2028 then pretty much kiss new electricity goodbye since they're going to go back to blowing everything up for solar panels and wind turbines.

It blows my mind that nobody was shot (in Fortnite) over the multiple instances of "woah neat I just found exactly 2,000 fresh-printed ballots in the trunk of my car meant for this district!" bullshit. That was so fucking blatant.

People were, but usually the people doing the shooting were also dumping ballots. Democrats have worked with organized crime for years. Like Al Smith, or Tom Pendergast. not to mention the intelligence agencies helping them.

Possibly depending on how much the DOE leans on them, but those plants take awhile to spin up, we talking months iirc. I'm not sure how quick this shit can get fixed, but it does need to get fixed.

Statistically, Americans without college degrees are more likely to identify as Republican. So why aren't you liberal yet? no degree yourself?

I would like to know what kind of degree please. in my view, i will only take STEM majors somewhat seriously.

Where do you guys research candidates before you vote?

You think Americans research their candidates? You think to highly of them. They check if there is a 'D' or 'R' next to their names, and then they vote(This is 100% true btw)

Academia has been utterly rotted out by the Frankfurt school thinkers, ted K had specifically mentioned the academics in his works because he himself was a professor in the 60s when the sickness was beginning to bloom, it's the reason he was able to make a perfect description of modern shitlibism aka the new left, he saw it's incubator.
These ideas are not natural, they were inflicted from the top down, college as it stands has devolved into an indoctrination camp where the promise of getting an actual job afterwards has been thrown out the window, indoctrination you go heavily in undefaultable debt to get, once an open secret and cynical joke now a clear reality which has resulted in youngins skipping the scam completely.
Having a college degree in current times is not some kind of flex, ever since it was made impossible to default upon loans they admitted practically anyone who applied only to leave them holding the bag and a head full of leftist foolishness.
For the right wing opinions many of these subhuman uneducated bumpkins they had to bear the brunt of deindustrialization and mass migration, obviously they would want something done about it. The H1b skilled scab program is begining to bring the suffering to the educated classes so we are seeing dissent from them now.

It's funny because so many people my age in their late 30s are still working jobs that have nothing to do with their degree, and some of them are even continuing to pay off their student loans.
Meanwhile I'm doing the same thing that my girlfriend did when she went to get her criminal justice degree before she went to the academy: community college.
You go and get your learning done, nobody has time for politics or bullshit, you come home and go to bed. Best part is you don't pay out the fucking asshole for it.
Before they benched me into the lame ass customer service department of my job, people who I worked with had university degrees that they paid six figures for. Six figures for a useless degree and they were still working a job with me in their thirties that only required high school or equivalency and a clean drug test.
Universities are a fucking SCAM. The only thing a university is going to teach you is how fucking gay most people are, literally and figuratively.

Truly, Nick espouses many profoundly wise positions, such as:

"Those little white girls who got ran over by a nigger deserved it, because they would've grown up to be nigger lovers anyways"

And:

"Having sex with women is gay."

Or how about:

"Christians and communists should team up."

I think some of you farmer should start looking at this as the ole 'enemy of my enemy is my friend'. You're gonna let the gays win, faggots. Get over it and fight like a man.

Nick IS one of the gays, faggot. He is of the "enemy." If Fuentes strolled into fag city, the homo denizens would crown him the eternal mayor for being the ultimate flaming cocksucker.

So long as less than 50% of conservative children get manipulated then the attrition is survivable. Plus the attrition runs both ways, being right wing is counter culture and left win children go right to piss of their parents. Not to mention blood is thicker than water. Politics are inherited by both nature and nurture.

Yeah, I figured... I don't have it in me to vote a straight R ticket. I just want to vote without feeling like a chump for once.

Silwa and Cuomo have too big of an ego to step down. I understand why Silwa wouldn't step down, but neither are a hero or focused on preventing Mamdani from winning, otherwise one would have dropped out by now. Mamdani is the candidate NYC deserves.
Click to expand...
Cuomo is just as bad

Covid era shit he did was heinous. He had a real death count. He also had the national guard confiscate ventilators from all over New York State to ship them to NYC .

What’s everyone think of trumps endorsement of cuomo btw? I don’t suppose it will change much at this point anyways so I’m just like meh

depending on how spicy your local GOPs get you might find some not-so-R guides depending on the rinos and 3rd party types
also you probably have your own thoughts on Local Ballot Measure
digging a bit into who's funding each side usually helps a lot to clear up what it really does

Because I don't blindly believe anything my professor says, my degree says jackshit about my intelligence. If you're not actively questioning everything you're told, whether it be news, your teacher, whatever, you're not really that much of a critical thinker. A piece of paper doesn't inherently make you smarter than anyone else, despite what pretentious assholes want to say.
 
Seriously though regarding Dick Cheney: how crazy is it that that dude tanked five fucking heart attacks?
Take a look at your left hand right now. Imagine every one of those fingers was a separate time that your heart went "nope" and tried to turn in its resignation.
Not only that but he ate all five, licked the plate clean, and got a quadruple bypass then a heart transplant. He had 2 DUIs as well, so you know he was a heavy drinker.
It's just amazing to me how badly this guy's own heart wanted him fucking dead, and he just kept looking down at his chest like "Naw, nigger" lmao.
Seriously though he had them take out the ability for the doctor to activate his defibrillator wirelessly because he was afraid that terrorists would hack into the mainframe and give his heart a fatal shock. He was 10 steps ahead of al qaeda :)
