That would require Joe Biden to be cool and Trump to actually show up to a debate in 2024, two things which are not possible.

Shocked and saddened to learn both Lou Dobbs and Laura Loomer are apparently still alive.


How much longer until Loomer chains herself to one of the runner up Republic candidates?

Him getting kicked out for being a layabout had more to do with his staying up all night with his underage girlfriend (he was like 22? She was about 16/17ish) quit his job, dropped out of school, committed to the USMC and then dropped out on the day he was supposed to ship out, got fired / arrested for theft from his job, declared he didn’t need to work / go to school, etc. So saying for being a layabout was pretty generous.

The best part about Ned Kelly is he's treated like a national hero, like a Robin Hood of Aus. But he wasn't lol. Dude was just a highwayman, aka mugged and robbed and murdered people.

But he had that wicked suit that didn't really work, so I guess he was proto-Iron Mans. Sometimes a cool suit does a lot for your image.

Abe Lincoln fuckin milkshake ducked, who would've seen it coming? Tsk tsk tsk.

Are you Australian because you better be throwing this shade from a place of knowledge m8

Ned Kelly is a hero because he's a fuckin outlaw, he's not and has never been "the Robin hood of Australia", he's just a guy that said gently caress the police. He's the Killdozer of Australia.

Yeah I'm Australian, and that is exactly the sanitised story I got told in school and poo poo all the loving time. It's really common altho I honestly think half of it is genuinely because people did watch the Yahoo Serious movie for their entire knowledge of him.

And yeah, like Chopper Reed is another hero that also just kind of murdered people and poo poo too. Like gently caress the police, and also civilians too.

Eisenhower desegregated the Little Rock school district by force, and I think he was generally held to be pretty decent. So there you go, last OK Republican president.

Nowadays of course he'd be DOA.

He got 12 million more and still lost, lmao.

My best guess is that the tendor of the times was playing in his favor there. Things may seem less apocalyptic now. And he's down to middle school auditoriums.

Eisenhower was decent on domestic Black civil rights, but he was a colonial administrator in the Philippines, was in charge during Operation Wetback (which among other things deported a whole lot of american citizens for being brown), signed what were pretty much whites-only immigration laws, normalized relations with fascist Spain, supported French colonialism in southeast Asia, and kicked off the right-wing genocide in Indonesia.

Like Lincoln decent for his time and compared to the alternatives, but you have to grade on a curve.

Killdozer dude was also a stupid rear end in a top hat that wasn't really a hero so it tracks.

Both Ned Kelly and Marvin Heemeyer built suits of armor that were ultimately impenetrable to small-arms fire, however.

I keep confusing Marvin Heemeyer and Richard Heene (the Balloon Boy Hoax dad). Both were selfish insane assholes who thrust themselves into national headlines for amazingly stupid and wasteful reasons but at least we got :killdozer: out of one of them.
