He wasn't even president at the time of the hush payment was he? There's no way that could be considered an official act. Unless maybe the supreme Court was full of bribable puppets, with 1/3 of them having been appointed by the convicted felon.

Oh, shit.

Can't wait for the governor of my state to vilify this as socialism and block it for her constituents because it might benefit even a single poor person.

Old people have a suicide death grip on this country and they would rather die and be buried under the rubble of their own hubris than let the people that have an actual stake in the future change anything.

To be fair, that fella likely committed a heinous crime such as believing that the earth was not the center of the solar system, or speaking to a wealthy person

I mean, the items in this post were definitely made that way for marketing. The color of the plastic doesn't change the functionality at all but it often was more expensive to get the special colors, or only limited quantities were produced. "Special editions" is a tried and true marketing tactic that goes back much further than the 90s.

Lately it seems like many Taylor Swift fans would slit someone's throat for the opportunity to look at a pan that she might have touched one time

I think a good term for what you defined in your edit might be "intrusive thoughts"

"Not siding with Israel" is much different than using the largest social media account in the world to post Nazi-baiting comments and imply that Jewish people are ruining America. Most of what Elon is actually saying about Jewish people is entirely unrelated to the current conflict in the middle East.
