Is it common for presidents to have their college transcripts publicized? That seems really odd, if so. So, he's just like every other politician in DC? 🤣

This ... ... is what makes me very happy. And when the biggest worry was that there would now be a catalytic converter under your car. This is a '75 outside of Saint Louis that they wanted $ 9,995 for. I think it's spoken for. Beautiful Salon version of the Cutlass coupe with the tall burgundy bucket seats. Not LG, as in "life's good," but, rather, "life was good."

Formula One Management has accepted GM's bid to be part of the league so Cadillac becomes the 11th team to be on the grid for 2026. Cadillac will partner up with TWG Global which owns Andretti Racing and Wayne Taylor Racing. It looks like Mario will be in charge as director of the team's board rather than his son Michael. Formula One had a problem with Michael. Cadillac for now will be using another manufacturer's engine. No word yet on who but rumors abound that it will not be Alpine/Renault as it was the first time around but Ferrari. I guess Ferrari was smitten when Chevrolet said that a Ferrai 458 and especially its engine was an inspiration for the Corvette C8 Z06 and its engine. That would be my opinion of course. GM promised that it would be an engine producer/supplier by the end of the decade for Cadillac's racing team. The team will race under the Cadillac brand. https://www.caranddriver.com/news/a63011375/formula-1-gm-cadillac-team-approved/ https://www.motortrend.com/news/general-motors-cadillac-joins-formula-1-2026/

He has hair. I do not. But Im better looking than he is. By a looooooong shot. If in fact the FBI found who D.B. Cooper really is, the guy truly is one ugly mofo. He was in his 20s but looked like he was in his 40s back then and why it took the FBI that long to figure out who the phoque he was. They would have had caught him 50 years ago and not now with the help of his kids... I, on the other hand, Im in my 50s but Im one good lookin' SOB now and I was oh soooooo adoreable then in my 20s. I never had a hard time finding dates.

Ok...Ill apologize then. Not because of your post, but because I ranted when I should have ignored. Im a tad pissed off with the American delusion and fascination with larger than life criminals and celebrity adoration. Im pissed off with the American justice system for the same delusional and fascination with larger than life criminals and celebrity adoration the DOJ also seem to have. And its not jst the politicians that dont have the demos (common people), but the American demos themselves not giving a shyte about themselves and BLAMING their politicians for behaving that way but the American demos ENABLING greedy and corrupt politicians to eventually continue phoquing them... *sigh* The DOJ could have come to sentence 2 bloody months ago when Trump was found guilty of the 37 accounts of fraud in his criminal case in NYC involving banks. And THAT would mena a prison sentence of whatever years. The January 6 case could have been pushed forward as SOON as he was NO LONGER president and he would have been charged with treason and possibly given a hanging but nope, nothing there. And lastly but not leastly, it does NOT matter what the guilty verdicts in court by a jury of his peers would have done, but American people VOTED in a KNOWN criminal...from waaaaaay before his courth case of THIS year. He is a known common fraudster since the 1980s... MANY of these voters were mesmerized by speeches of rascism and blatant inequality and all kinds of things that is the OPPOSITE of what America is all about INCLUDING JUSTICE FOR ALL... So...do NOT tell me that politicians, ALL of them are bad... because it seems that Americans all they want is the BAD politicians... You phoquers keep on voting them in. Please do NOT tell me that Harris is as bad of a crook as Trump is. She might be a politician that might not care for you...Ill give you that. But she is definetely NOT a fraud, crook and traitor... When Donald J. Trump finally phoques your country up for good and sells your freedoms for his wealth, and possibly mine as a Canadian, because he will put a wedge between our countries and other dictators from other countries will see this divide and further exploit this divide, please dont tell me that ALL politicians dont care for us and that they are all bad. THAT does not fly with me. And please please PLEASE do NOT whine that after what Donnie has done to it, please please PLEASE do NOT say "how did that happen?" or "it was the democrats fault"...

Since the late 1950's most presidents have shared their tax returns for the last few years and education information allowing the public to view if they are competent and deemed educated enough to handle the job of President. Idiot 47 / 45 has refused to allow anything to be reviewed about his life and I would have to say this is probably based on his own criminal nature, lawsuits lost that he still tries to overturn and his blatant disregard for our laws, constitution, etc. Most voters have not ever paid attention to the education validation and tax returns, but with Idiot he has brought this on himself by trying to hid everything behind lawyers who many have lost their ability to be a lawyer due to lying for him. Why would anyone risk their own integrity for such a buffoon is beyond me, one can only hope that he truly goes 6 feet under asap as I think many can then better deal with the idiot vp he choose. Nice, Nice self-portrait olds Sarcasm, yes I know our famous PNW person.

I am so freakin' excited for this! Ford and GM will be in F1 in 2026.

It wasn't defending anyone, at all. It was a generalized question about all past presidents. I've never heard people asking about college transcripts for any president since I've been of voting age and @trinacriabob's comment seemed odd to me. That was all. No need to try and place me in one of the two buckets. I'm just not going into politics here. I hate them all. They're all trash. None of them have the betterment of the whole on their mind.

I know that this secrecy was mentioned, as if he was a legacy admit and didn't perform well, with some profs weighing in on that. We know when a VIP politician is on law review, magna/summa, a Fulbright, or a Rhodes scholar. Ditto with Schwarzenegger ... not even the mayor of a small town. When there was a teacher's pay settlement thing dragging on and on, he said in his Austrian accent that 'whoever' would 'stay in there until resolved and that it could smell' ... urine or feces, possibly. Brown or Newsom know how the machine works and are much less likely to utter such stupidities. I'm apolitical until I see idiocy. I will gladly vote for a good and normal Republican (a RINO), but the other side is much less amenable to voting Dem due to lower education which leads to more black and white thinking and critical thinking skills that aren't as sharp. I'd be insulted if someone called me a liberal. I just like moderation when possible.

I didn't want to bother a Bothellian with an early post, given the 3 hour time difference, but join me in wishing @G. David Felt an electrifying birthday! Enjoy your day ... as much as you can, anyway.

And, then, the deplorables will not blame him for inflation because something else must be causing it. Also, he doesn't "do" anything. He knows some, but not a lot. The puppeteers make all these calls. He has an econ degree from Penn for which he won't let the transcripts be publicized. The puppeteers often have graduate level schooling in economics, law, and policy and that's what they've habitually done for a living. He just flaps his gums and talks tough.

You always seem to want to defend in ANY way possible this Donald J. Trump fellow. I know you say you are the independant voter type, but it seems very odd to me that you always seem to have some sort defense for him. And all Republican type politicians. I really dont care what voter you are and how you vote. Just a pattern I sees. It would be a brain twister for me trying to figure you out had you defended Biden or Harris like you do with Trump when @ocnblu was putting on his show against Obama and Biden, but Im not here to start a political thing with you. I simply dont care. Just wanted to tell you that Ive picked up a certain pattern with you. But...Imma gonna ask you if you feel its kinda odd for Trump and friends to question Harris if she ever worked at McDonald's and to ask for proof. I will admit its kinda odd for a politician to lie about a place of work that may or may not have happened. But to ask for tax slips and pay stubs to a middle aged person (Harris) about a teenager job that she had is kinda odd to me. Who keeps those slips that long anyway? And...to try to belittle somebody about such a MUNDANE thing but for ALL Trump and friends and followers to ACCEPT BLATANT Trump lies about MORE SERIOUS issues is even odder to me... Just sayin' In my 52 years almost on this planet called earth, I havent quite heard another politician quite like Donald J. Trump huff and puff sooooo much hatred with so called toughness. I wasnt alive when Hitler was doing his schtick, so I cant compare Hitler with Trump, but ODDLY enough (that word again that you used and I want to point out just like you like to point out odd things), Trump seems to want to compare himself with Hitler at EVERY turn on his own. Nobody else but him and his favorite media personalities endorse it as well. So no...not like ever other politician. IN THE WORLD let lone DC. Well maybe Putin the last 2-3 years threatening the West( that is us if you havent noticed) with Nuclear attack. Oh...just to be clear. Its thanx to Trump's divisional tactics in his political world and his so called leadership that has weakened and divided Americans that Putin had the balls to attack and try to capture the entirety of Ukraine and it is Trump himself that has caused Word War 3 because make no misytake about it, the planet IS experiencing WW3 right now. Pray it does NOT escalate to harsher weaponry... ALL because Trump talks 'tough'. With his ALLIES...
