Will this be enough to finally get the MAGA Morons to turn on their Fearless Fuehrer and call for an Impeachment?

RE

Learned helplessness.  Repeated exposure to uncontrollable harm leads a person to feel escape is impossible, even when options exist.  I would not bet on the MAGA morons coming to their senses yet.  If ever.

🍿 But, this move may be so unpopular that Trump may finally have cooked his own goose.  We shall see.

Gas lines are in our future.  If you do not think so, can you argue gas is not going to skyrocket in price?

A year in office and Trump fucks the world.

If Trump is not stopped there will be consequences.  Fascism has a shelf life.

 

We don't know what special shit Trump's adventurism will bring, but if you haven't figured it out by now, Trump never stops bringing shit.  Bringing shit is what Trump does.  So shit it will surely be.  And at the end Trump will be dead, and America will be left with his consequences.

Gas lines...and rationing...is in our past as well. Anyone in PA during global peak oil in 1979 and the ensuing rationing knows this.

Gas lines aren't in my future. Momma didn't raise no fool, and I haven't forgotten that gas rationing long ago.

I recommend a new one of these for everyone.

I got mine for slightly more than half the money that K-Dog spends on some eco-friendly heat pump. Gas lines...please....let them eat cake.

Is this really what collapse and doom has been reduced to? Recession? Cost of living increases?

After having all sorts of other dooms thoroughly discredited all along the way this century, is this really all we've got left? Recession? Political disagreements? I at least get the political disagreements, for all the complaining about the horrors of the neocons, the Oligarchs have certainly unleashed idiots-R-us in a big way this time. As far as idiots-R-us being doom...well...maybe all that IS left is pretending recessions are the outcome of idiots in charge. Be they Republicrat or Democan. It isn't as though any other group has been able to gain traction against the Oligarchs.

The war may not last long, the effects on the oil market however will be quite long lasting.  Doubtful Iran gets back to its pre-war production levels anytime soon, and doubtful shipping insurance costs through the Straight of Hormuz will drop much either.  More sabotage likely throughout the region.

Things will get quite messy.

If it lasts a month, it might be a recession.  If it lasts 6 months, kiss the economy goodbye.

Using the 'Get Article' dropdown on the 'Article Options' button will let you add a Doomscroll article to a post here.  It does that by creating a special tag in the post.  Then the article is later looked up using this tag and displayed.  The code that displays the tile and description after looking up the article info was not rendering a '$' correctly.  Now it is.

The fix :

Code Select Expand

$safe_description = htmlspecialchars($article['description']);
$safe_description = str_replace('$', '$', $safe_description);
$safe_description = nl2br($safe_description);

As you can see here :
