The Supreme Court is back in conservative hands and illegal border crossings are down 70%, so he's not as ineffective is you claim. Consider the difference if the super shrew won. Republican weakness is that they're disunited against a united Democrat opposition, thus majority of Republicans have to yield to Dems because the far right is so intransigent they sabotage the good when they can't get the perfect. I would suggest that if people are suddenly choosing to stay in Mexico instead of moving to the US, things must be getting pretty bad in the US.

Actually I doubt his hosting duties were all that strenuous. However running multiple business and handling real estate is where he makes his money, and he seems to be very involved in that. I don't think it is reasonable to dismiss his work ethic. There are plenty of other flaws for us to hold against him. edit: Also, the campaign itself is a tremendous grind, and should have given him a pretty good idea of what the presidency would be like. He campaigned for well over a year and all evidence points to him doing it tirelessly. He would have burnt out long before the election if he really was a lazy guy. I don't think he ever did much more than speaking to yes men and delegating actual work when running his various businesses. As for the campaign, while being always on the road is certainly strenuous in and of itself, his speeches were always almost entirely off the cuff for a reason. He prepares nothing beforehand, and doesn't think more than 5 minutes about any given subject.

Saying he did nothing is certainly hyperbole. However, the most tiring thing he ever did, mentally or physically, before becoming the President was probably recording episodes of The Apprentice.

He thought that it was less work than essentially doing nothing?

So someone from Obsidian went to Portugal only after I left.

This is pretty much a perfect depiction of what happens:

Wait, your healthcare is fine? Oh, never mind then. Everything must be peachy keen for everyone, everywhere.

I was specifically thinking about the "working tremendous hours" bit. I'm of the opinion that both W. and Obama were well meaning. This is iffier if considering their entire administrations, of course. Stating that the cause of rising health care costs was the ACA is misleading to say the least. Healthcare costs in the US were already ridiculous and increasing long before the ACA. The ACA was an underwhelming solution because the US, as a whole, is ridiculously and irrationally dysfunctional regarding anything that attempts to tackle the unmitigated catastrophe that is healthcare in America.

That stopped being true a few months ago, apparently.

It's those Spicer comments

Denying the holocaust during a white house press conference on the day of a Jewish holiday is certainly an interesting new low.

I saw an article today where Donald Trump was the President of the US. Stretching believability a bit too much, I would say. Haw, haw.

I could be bothered, this time:

Is that a movie about make up?

That's one terrible cartoon.

That Justice League trailer is like a guy in a midlife crisis trying to look badass on a skateboard and then breaking his hip.

I know but I can't be bothered.

Alien: Isolation Just a resolution test. Edit:The forums reduce the size so, no go. This should be 6880x2880.

The whole AHCA voting situation is amusing. Republicans have railed against Obamacare for what are now 8 years or something. They now control the House, the Senate and Presidency, and yet they can't repeal Obamacare. This is almost as big a failure as losing an election against Trump.

All I can personally say is that I didn't pay any extra fees for the original game when I got it. I also got the signed copy so my box probably had to pass through the US originally. Additionally, I don't remember anyone on the forums complaining about paying extra customs fees, but my memory may be faulty on that. I also assume that, at this point, unless Obsidian is certain the same company(ies?) will be used for international deliveries, how international shipping will be handled isn't set in stone yet, so Obsidian might not have a definite answer to give yet. I'm a volunteer mod by the way. Edit: Forgot about Paradox. Paradox is the publisher, and they're based in Sweden so there shouldn't be any reason for you to pay extra fees if you are within the EU.

Democracy is of course a populist concept but plenty of stuff is not populist. Often the truth is not too populist, for instance. "Hey, we promise to spend extra money to change public schools for the better but you'll only know for sure that this is a good idea 10 to 20 years down the line. Vote for me." "Hey we're gonna divert a sizeable portion of the taxes you pay to fight a vague environmental threat that won't affect you much but will definitely threaten the lives of your grandchildren or at least the lives of someone else's billions of grandchildren. Vote for me." "Hey, I promise I will work hard to make your lives better, but my policies won't change diddly squat in the next 4 years. However my policies should improve your life marginally 6 to 8 years from now. In 10 years though is when things start to get really better unless, of course, you elect someone who has a different idea about governing, in the mean time. Vote for me."

For some insane reason giving away free money is not populist in the US. Bootstraps demagoguery and whatnot. Outside the US giving away money is totally populist, though. Keeping your country safe from foreigners is also populist, however. It's not an either/or situation.

Is that a picture of a printout of a facebook comic?
