How much would you pay for a Maverick

Don Sherrod (@barksdalecliff.bsky.social)

I work it the auto business and I tell people all the time…”if you are ready for a $100k ford Maverick, you are ready for those jobs to come back”. (Currently assembled in Mexico - list price: $25k-40k)

Just dawned on me that they are talking about the Mexican version of the Ford Ranger.

25k for a ford ranger is crazy

100k for a ranger is just fuckin stupid.

I’m keeping my Ranger til that bitch is worth 50k

Not speaking on the tariff stuff but just wanted to chime in on this:

I don't give a fuck. This emotional blackmail shit gotta end and y'all got sack the fuck up, we are not the world's savior. USAID was established by Executive Order and is under the purview of the Executive branch.

Y'all can't say we need to leave the world alone and then cry when a major tool of foreign influence is curtailed just because you don't like the guy that did it.

I mean this is a message board. You don’t have to, but I’d be interested in understanding how what Kamala might have done is equivalent or worse than what Trump is doing.

Or, taking away the hypothetical, how what Trump is doing is equivalent or worse than what Obama or Biden did during their terms.

Kamala is as status quo as it gets. She said she wouldn't do much diff than Biden 🤢

Biden did vax mandates, Trump is for state government dictating women's right to choose birth. Both attack bodily autonomy.

Biden administration pressured media outlets and platforms to censor and were successful multiple times. Looks like Trump wants what Biden has and prob gonna try and take it a step farther. Both are pro censorship.

Obama, after running on ending wars and bringing troops home, was a continuation of "the war on terror" and expanded to multiple Middle Eastern countries, and was about as successful as the war on drugs while normalizing drone strikes in record numbers in non battlefield areas. Some of his drone strikes had anywhere from 70-90% civilian casualties. If I remember correctly they also lied about those #s and tried to downplay them.

His flip flop on money in politics, went from denouncing it, to practicing it, to doing nothing about campaign finance reform when he had a chance. I think most of us agree money in politics is bad for business. One side says they're against it, both sides' actions say they're not.

Not anti vax. Anti mandate. No [healthy] person should have to choose between employment and a shot that didn't prevent infection/transmission.

It helped the elderly and those with multiple comorbodities. Don't argue w me argue with the numbers.
