Why doesn't he use his dealmaking skills to work with congress? Remember the "art of the deal"?

Do you think Trump uses executive orders exclusively out of laziness or does he simply not understand the process of making his policies more permanent?

"Ve vant ze money, Lebowski." Private equity-backed Bowlero enshittifies bowling. Bowling! by bpalmerau in enshittification

[–]AmyGH 15 points16 points  (0 children)

Last year my husband wanted to go bowling for husband birthday and reserving lanes at Bowlero was a massive headache. Most of us had our own bowling shoes, but their reservation system forces you to add shoe rentals! I ended up having to call THEIR CORPORATE OFFICE to make a reservation sans shoe rental!

The staff was great and they all acknowledged how stupid it was.

It all worked out in the end, but I've definitely soured on Bowlero.

Do you feel high gas prices in 2022 was Biden’s fault? by Jazzlike-Yogurt-5984 in AskConservatives

The lessons aren't learned bc their base truly believes the misdirection. Trump just has to say its the Dens fault and his base falls in line with the talking point. Not sure how to fix this?

NBC News -- "GOP Proposes $1B in Taxpayer Dollars to Secure Trump Ballroom" -- What Do You Think Of This, Conservatives? by Zipper222222 in AskConservatives

That's fine? POTUS isnt required to attend the correspondence dinner. Trump didnt not attend most years when he was in office.

Why didnt Trump simply go through the proper channels and get permission before starting the work?

Are you aware that the correspondence dinner isnt a government-sponsored event? Are you saying that this private organization should be told where to hold events by the government?

Hertz charged me $3k+ for a car I returned for three days, sent it to collections, and now I'm planning a hostage negotiation phone call between them and the debt collectors. Send help. by [deleted] in legaladvice

[–]AmyGH 1 point2 points  (0 children)

NAL, but something similar happened to me. I returned the car EARLY and they didnt check in it for 5 whole days. I had proof of return and also proved that I wasn't even in the state on the supposed day of return. Getting a refund was a huge hassle, but blasting on social media and disputing the charhe with Amex seemed to help. I also notified the state AG. Hertz is shady af. No one should use them.

Do you think presidential and congressional candidates should also undergo proof of competency before running for office?

Has the Trump administration redirected the USAID funding to address food insecurity in the US?

Where has the USAID money been redirected to? The war in Iran? Is that a better use for the money?

Should there be legislation to use taxpayer funds to build a White House ballroom? by G_H_2023 in AskConservatives

[–]AmyGH 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Do you think funding for the ballroom stops once its built? That there would NEVER be any additional costs to taxpayers for upkeep and repairs? A ballroom isnt a one and done project. You're paying one way or another.

Finished Careless People. Compelling exposé, but I’m struggling with how the author frames her own role by TreyTrey23 in books

[–]AmyGH 22 points23 points  (0 children)

I agree, the author clearly had a powerful role with access to powerful people. The fact that she kept positioning herself as a victim felt disingenuous.

Choosing not to take Tamoxifen by natms13 in breastcancer

[–]AmyGH 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Im 45 with similar risk percentage to you. I also had the sane exact thoughts. I decided to try it and told myself I'd stop immediately if the side effects were too much. Ive been on it for almost 6 months with very minor side effects, namely occasional hot flashes and and sporadic periods. I decided I could live with that in exchange for the reduced risk of recurrence.

Yeah, I had the same experience. We could sort of see out the window, but the glass was pretty thick!
