those aren’t the bulk of his base.

Most of his base are deluded into thinking he’s not actually like hitler. That he’s some how moral, and a really good guy who would never.
Most of his base are morons voting against their own interests.

dunno.

They generally require you to be potty trained for kindergarten.

Yes. They were. It’s fairly scary.

And very Beerhall Putsch-ish. too bad his base doesn’t bother to learn history correctly, and that’s why we’re all doomed.

Might as well create public 2 years that are free to everyone anyhow.

I’d prefer kids being exploited for debugging than meat packing plants. probably pays better, too. Snack-to-work ratio seems higher, also.

hey. Uh. I’m not a kid, but I can be a dumb fuck… if anyone’s hiring…

It is technically true, though. Autorotation only provides some control while going down (and the adds inertia helps, too,) but generally they won’t be getting back to an airport or something the way an airplane could.

The way it works is they pitch the rotor blades to collect head speed on the rotor and then flair just before the crash, using the rotor’s inertia to make one last bit of thrust. They can use some of the energy for control and to get someplace safe, but they’re usually not trying to go cross country.

Done correctly, in a clear area, they can survive. But a clear area is a lot easier to find for a helicopter than it is for

Usually helicopter crashes are fatal, however. Most crashes are caused by pilots though, for example pilots that elect to fly through cloudy mountains….

Hamas can’t even defend themselves.

it would never have happened in the first place. if roles were reversed, there would have been adequate forces in place to prevent it from escalating.

Remember, Trump made sure to have a relatively light law enforcement presence in the capital. There were no unscalable barricades present. there was no call for the Nat Guard- despite assurances they were ready to go, and that was trump’s call.

the entire insurrection was planned by people who wanted to put trump back in the white house by any means necessary. I don’t know that it was entirely planned by trump- he’s a moron- but it was certainly done with his cooperation.

“Confusion and Concern Cloud rescue Efforts.”

… oh dear.

it’s gaslighting. it’s one of the ways that narcisistic assholes use to manipulate you into doing and being what they want.

Don’t fall for it in romance, and don’t fall for it in religion either.

So, Vance, you’re saying that college tuition should be totally subsidized by tax dollars? Right?

I’m going to say it’s already heavily subsidized by tax dollars. (aka student loans that are supposed to be forgiven at one point or another.)

easy access to student loans has only caused tuition to skyrocket. subsidizing tuition more directly is just going to do the same. What really needs to happen is to provide viable public education for 2 year and 4 year degrees.

And Vance can get the fuck out of the curriculum.

Bruh the only politician who has been flattened in the past 24 hours was Ebrahim Raisi.

too soon. also… was he flattened? or is he more of a smear?

Not as much. But I do notice you on every trump post insisting people are screaming both sides… and others taking legitimate criticism of biden as people screaming both sides.

about as likely as internal power struggles, or some other actor who wants to maybe stir up shit in the middle east. (wouldn’t put it past the russians, to be honest. they’d benefit from israel going to war and people forgetting about Ukraine.)

not as likely as mechanical failure or shitty weather.

It’s reasonable to imagine.

It’s also reasonable to imagine internal power struggles, or mechanical failure.

Don’t buy anything. We’ll probably never really know.

Cars become a lot safer when they close entire stretches of highways for you, the driver is a professionally trained driver, and never gets distracted or drunk while driving; and you’re driving something heavily up-armored.

Helicopters are very complicated machines for whom total engine failure inevitably leads to a crash- a crash that generally people can’t walk away from.

Yes it’s possible to safely land a helicopter without power- and most everywhere doing so is part of pilot training for thermal licenses. Those training landings are a) known, b) in ideal locations where it’s safe to land, c) generally in an aircraft that hasn’t lost control.

Even then, they fuck it up they’re dead.

better call a plumber, then.

Wasn’t trump’s White House doc handing out hard drugs line candy?

It’s on land. That’s a landing. Yiu didn’t specify in preflight check in that you required a safe landing.

Welcome to most of history.
