I don’t say much on here, but I use it as a tool for learning (and entertainment).

@megynkelly Damn. I knew it was bad, but I didn’t know it was Megyn Kelly simps for Glenn Greenwald bad. I thought this was sarcasm at first. 😳

@realDougStewart @RibbonLed @VinnyMartorano @cbsaustin That is absurd and baseless.🤣

@stevedavedavid @FLDadReborn @magaman28 Oh no I got insulted by a bot. 🙄

Been a subscriber and listening to Ben for over a decade. If anything, all it has made me want to do is be a more informed Conservative. You may not agree with everything he says, but the man has integrity, which is more than I can say for many of the “Conservative” talking heads I am seeing now. 🤷🏼‍♀️

So apparently Jill and I are on a plane to China with Trump, Elon Musk, half the Cabinet, and a collection of CEOs whose combined net worth could probably refinance the moon.

Totally normal day for Gen X.

And I just can’t stop laughing at how the media spent YEARS telling us:

- China hated Elon
- Trump was “finished”
- America was collapsing
- capitalism was dead
- and everybody important was abandoning the U.S.

Meanwhile, here we are somewhere over the Pacific looking like the cast of Succession meets Top Gun: Retirement Plan Edition.

Remember when China sanctioned Marco Rubio back in 2020 and everybody acted like the geopolitical chessboard had permanently shifted?

Now suddenly everybody’s still showing up to the table because — shocking development — nations tend to like:

- money
- technology
- manufacturing
- trade
- AI
- energy
- semiconductors
- and not being economically irrelevant

Who knew.

The best part is the internet meltdown cycle never changes.

Trump:
“America needs stronger trade relationships.”

Media:
“HITLER.”

Elon:
“I make electric cars, rockets, satellites, AI, and robots.”

Internet activists:
“Yeah but we posted an angry hashtag.”

Cool.
I’m sure Beijing is trembling before your TikTok resistance movement.

And flying with this group is exactly what you think it would be.

Trump walks around the cabin narrating reality like it’s an episode of Lifestyles of the Rich and Geopolitical:
“Great flight. Powerful people. Very high IQ. The Chinese are saying they’ve never seen anything like it.”

Elon looks like he hasn’t slept since 2019 and is simultaneously calculating orbital trajectories and wondering if the beverage cart could be automated.

Meanwhile Jill and I are sitting there like two exhausted Gen Xers who survived dial-up internet, chain-smoking restaurants, lawn darts, and drinking from garden hoses… wondering how in the hell we became side characters in the weirdest timeline imaginable.

Honestly, at this point if Trump walked into Beijing blasting “Danger Zone” while Elon live-streamed it from orbit, I wouldn’t even blink.

Because the people who told us America was over are still tweeting from iPhones, driving Teslas, using Starlink during hurricanes, and cashing checks tied to the same capitalist machine they claim to hate.

Gen X translation:
The world’s still running.
The adults are still making deals.

And the internet is still confusing hashtags for accomplishments.

Carry on.

@deevoevo911 @GOP_is_Gutless Same. That paragraph about Elon looking like he hasn’t slept since 2019 is fantastic 🤣

@ZubyMusic Howdy, 🤠

[theinformedblonde @informedblonde]

@SusannaSovran I kind of thought so but second guessed myself and didn’t have time to check. 🤣

[theinformedblonde @informedblonde]

@Bowtiedplayer @WadeMiller has a solid understanding of Chip’s record and has some good replies as to why he supports him. He cuts through the rhetoric I see flying around right now if you want to check him out.

[theinformedblonde @informedblonde]

@emzanotti I love them too 🤣

[theinformedblonde @informedblonde]

@RealJamesWoods Yes.

[theinformedblonde @informedblonde]

@MrsDrPublius This is so so good. I’m single and a small business owner in a very saturated and competitive market. The pressure is unbelievable. I’ve been struggling so much with quiet time. Needed this reminder, thank you

[theinformedblonde @informedblonde]

@ATXVideos You are right. I also compare it to how the clerk at the bodega in Brooklyn that saw I was hiding from someone who followed me home from the train. That guy totally protected me.

[theinformedblonde @informedblonde]

Honestly I think it was just because he was familiar with the guy maybe? But still, your patron is afraid to walk out the door. And also, no matter how harmless that guy might be, if he waives that sword at the wrong guy… 🫣. The whole thing was bizarre. Like no one was phased.

@JonnyMicro 🙏🙏🙏

@tlangford @KUTnathan YES!!! So I’m not crazy! Struggled with this when I first moved here

[theinformedblonde @informedblonde]

@michaeldcargill So crazy. You are the best Michael! Keep fighting the good fight
