I've always thought 'childlike' is a kinder way to describe doobi, but I understand when people go straight to the stupid, brain destroyed by meth stuff. Juvenile captures his essence as well.
The left is flailing the last couple days!

Doesn’t flailing indicate a lack of direction or being beset with difficulties?
Seems to describe the start of President Musk’s term and the dude hasn’t even been sworn in.
OP might want to look in the mirror and sit the rest of this out.

You been paying attention to what's happening in Congress, LOL?
GOP infighting has been glorious.
The world's richest man who holds no elected office is playing a key role in shutting down the U.S. government. Why the hell would anyone be discussing that?
Weird that we would have concerns about a Musk shadow government in the US or his alignment with far-right, extremist and even - yes - Nazi - party in Germany.
But the criticism of Musk is totally unwarranted.

You silly libs are losing your goddamn minds. This is how our government is supposed to work. MAGA
Give Joel credit for watching TCM in the afternoons and catching a spark from Sophia Loren, and taking us all for a stroll down spank bank lane.
Doobi is just a dummy who thinks he OwND tHE LiBZ this morning.
Threads like this are why I still needle Keyhawk for thinking he’d outwit us all by starting a new handle, then posting the same dumb stuff.
Seems to me a bunch of people have been making fun of the mess. I don't sense a meltdown at all.
For years the GOP was "flailing," as the esteemed OP would say, about a shadowy billionaire supposedly running the government in secret (Soros). Turns out, those complaints were all in bad faith and they actually love unelected billionaires running the government. Who could have guessed that plot twist?
I think it was less calculated than that. Pretty sure Doobi had said he simply forgot the password to Keehawk and couldn't retrieve it. I mean, that isn't really that hard to believe given what we've seen over the years...
Hold on, hold on, hold on — are you telling me that the AfD might not be great? Just look at this wholesome ad from them! Party of family values!Weird that we would have concerns about a Musk shadow government in the US or his alignment with far-right, extremist and even - yes - Nazi - party in Germany.

Got dang projection once again. It's literally always projection by them.
Hold on, hold on, hold on — are you telling me that the AfD might not be great? Just look at this wholesome ad from them! Party of family values!
Hey…if eggs are just as expensive in Germany as they are here, who wouldn’t want a little white supremacy to fix things?
WILL YOU LIBS PLEASE STOP FLAILING AND LOSING YOUR MINDS!

Some how the American public has bought into the bullshit that the government should function as efficiently and as economically as a private business. This just is not the case. The government is a non-profit enterprise that is tasked with all the duties that the private sector is not prepared to undertake or assume. This is not an excuse for “the governnent” and its shortcomings but it is an explanation for the differences in the expectations.
Reminds me of the old Nixon war chant “4 more years! 4 more years!”
This MAGA driven Congress is a real treat!

Lol classic. My favorite is how many of you glorify your continued drug use and that's just dandy because you agree about politics. But I mention doing meth 25 years ago and that means I'm ****ed up. Lol don't ever change hbort.
Haven't you heard? Lots of states are legalizing meth since it's on the level with THC.

For the record, do all the drugs you want. I was just looking for the perfect place to use that GIF finally and found it !
He was a really awesome meth head but has changed into a clean douchebag dummy.
That brings us back to the initial reason for the blowup: Elon’s endless scroll. Which appears to be tied to none of the inaccurate reasons he offered on X, but an old standby for billionaires: personal financial and business incentives. The original bill would have made it harder for Musk to build Tesla factories in Shanghai.
This is the first scandal of the second Trump term, and take a long look, because it’s going to look like all the other scandals: a conflict of interest among his impossibly wealthy advisers and aides (or from Trump himself) seeps over into policy.
The measure at issue is known as the “outbound investment” provision. We have heard for years about the problem of manufacturing businesses shipping jobs overseas to China, with its low worker wages and low environmental standards. China typically forces businesses wanting to locate factories in its country to transfer their technology and intellectual property to Chinese firms, which can then use that to undercut competitors in global markets, with state support.
Congress has been working itself into a lather about China for years now, and they finally came up with a way to deal with this issue. Sens. John Cornyn (R-TX) and Bob Casey (D-PA) have the flagship bill, which would either prohibit U.S. companies from investing in “sensitive technologies” in China, including semiconductors and artificial intelligence, or set up a broad notification regime around it.
The bill would add some reporting requirements and enhanced reviews as well; in general, it expands restrictions that the Treasury Department has already put forward in regulatory rules. Codifying those rules into statute means that they cannot be changed by successive administrations.
Cornyn-Casey passed the Senate last year, and after about a year of legislative wrangling, a final outbound investment package made it into the year-end bill. “We’re taking a necessary step to safeguard American innovation against bad actors and ensure our lasting dominance on the world stage,” Cornyn said in a statement.
Funny story: Elon Musk’s car company has a significant amount of, well, outbound investment. A Tesla Gigafactory in Shanghai opened in 2019; maybe a quarter of the company’s revenue comes from China. Musk has endorsed building a second Tesla factory in China, where his grip on the electric-vehicle market has completely loosened amid domestic competition. He is working with the Chinese government to bring “Full Self-Driving” technology to China, in other words, importing a technology that may be seen as sensitive. Musk has battery and solar panel factories that are not yet in China, but he may want them there in the future.
You can argue about whether the U.S. should be restricting investment in China. But it’s incontrovertible that a billionaire who has a bunch of investments in China and wants to make more all of a sudden disrupted a normal congressional process that was going to restrict that investment with a bunch of lies from his media platform. And lo and behold, when the new funding bill emerged, the outbound investment feature was dropped. In fact, all traces of provisions related to China were removed from the bill.
Love watching da cons and pres Musky try to govern, seems they are doing it ass backwards and getting flustered. Then i'll enjoy the crying and watching the con civil war when they don't get all they want.
A smart poster would have disappeared after getting flogged in a thread they started.
Never change.
Doobi is a perfect example of a single issue voter who voted to screw himself over. Doobi muddles along with fewer opportunities but votes for the oligarchs because they have him convinced that UnBOrN BAbIeS and which bathroom some kid used without anyone noticing is all that matters.
Nah, those billionaires absolutely have the best interests in mind for those country folk that struggle getting by. Elon knows alllllllllllllll about that life.
Without using your fingers?
