Re: Trump



I think your sums are out.
Using the latest U.S. Census estimates, there were about 269.2 million adults (18+) in the United States as of July 2025.

So:

269.2 million adults × $5,000
= $1.346 trillion


I think your sums are out.

269.2 million adults × $5,000
= $0

Re: The Grand Throttle House Tour


I watched most of the first episode. First GT episode I've ever watched (not a Clarkson fan).

It felt a bit forced, but..... scripted stuff inevitably does. :? It wasn't offensively forced, so I'll stick with it.

A Revuelto. The keen eyed among you will notice the police officer preparing to drive it up the trailer to impound it.
Other impounded cars on trailers were some arab G Wagens and a Urus. Bit weird that they can’t afford to insure their cars.

It's like our politicians aren't taking it seriously.
Why should they take Farage seriously? He resigned to stop an investigation into his grifting and the rest of the parties decided they didn't want to play his silly game. Perfectly played.
