(6,871 posts)I doubt anything he says will make any difference to his supporters. "He said, she said," you know.
But"The Stars and Stripes" is now dead, killed by Trump*. That's something the troops could see and touch - and will clearly see that it's disappeared. THAT is what is going to be the nail in his coffin with the military.

(11,949 posts)Maybe Ill skip makers my next purchase. I havent had Larceny in a few years.
There are so few wheated bourbons in mass production. You cant get wellers anymore since everyone know it is the same mash bill as Pappys. And of course Makers.

(11,949 posts)Same mash bill as Pappys and not really much different between the 2 unless you can afford to drink really expensive bourbon all the time and develop the pallet for it. Which I cant.
Both are made at Buffalo Trace distillery which is a great tour if you are ever in central Kentucky.
Even if you find Wellers Special reserve which is only aged 5-7 years it is fantastic bourbon. For $25 a bottle it beats many at 3 times its price.
Obviously I like Wheated Bourbon over the spicy rye which is much more common.

(938 posts)I love Maker's Mark, but Benchmark Old #8 has 80% of the taste at 40% of the price.

(11,949 posts)And I cannot keep open bourbon in the house. We have a full bar for guests. Most common liquors and a few obscure ones. I never touch them. But if there is an opened bottle of bourbon I cant refrain. So I generally dont drink it. Only buy it for special times.
We took a trip with the boat to the coast last weekend so I have some Makers left. It will be gone in a few hours.
I could easily become a functional alcoholic so discipline myself not to buy it.
One glass a wine a day is my normal limit. Fishing trips and Election Day are exceptions!
You have a great weekend.
Not the Ocean shit

(11,949 posts)But Ive drank wheated bourbon for 30 years so everything else is too hot. If you know what I mean.
Dont get me wrong. I can enjoy it. But not my fav.
Have a nice weekend.

(11,949 posts)But I will buy any bottle of Blantons I see.
Funny story. I deer hunt in a tiny South Arkansas town near the Louisiana border. Where my family lives. Dry county so we have to drive 8 miles to Louisiana to by booze. The liquor store is a ramshackle old gas station where you can sit in your truck and have them bring your purchase to you. Including mixed drinks in a styrofoam cup! Louisiana. Anyway, last year I went in and on the top shelf were 3 bottles of Blantons!! I about fell down. Worker told me they get in a bottle a month but aint no one here paying $60 for a bottle of Whiskey! I walked out with all three bottles for $140. If Covid and my budget allows I will go back this year. Guess where my first stop will be?
Have a nice evening.

(13,507 posts)Its disgusting how he talks about the those in the military. I also heard he had to ask what happened at Pearl Harbor!!! Are you kidding me! I actually teared up when I heard this because it just hurts me to know that we have such an uninformed idiot as President. I dont know a lot of war history, but for sure I know what happened at Pearl Harbor!!!
Ive been in a funk since this story broke. I find it heartbreaking on so many levels. And I dont understand how this country ever elected this monster and how we ended up where we are. I was sobbing listening to Joe today.
Im not a religious person, but if theres a God up there, please let this be the final nail in 45s coffin. We need to bring back some common decency, and dare I say it, humanity, to the White House. This is not who we are.

I am gratified that Trump is now bleeding politically from dozens of self-inflicted wounds, but I cannot feel glee, not about this.

(11,519 posts)I pointed out on facebook that there's no way I'd ever support someone who said our dead and injured troops were losers, as expected I got a lot of blowback from the local maggots about it being a lie. After I posted a link to the story indicating that a Fox News correspondent had verified the story one of them actually said that she didn't believe a word Fox News said because they're a bunch of liars.

(1,648 posts)Putin and other KGB Intelligence Officers never went away after the collapse of the Soviet Union... They have been biding their time and regaining power in the Russian government and capitalism. They have been determined to get revenge on the United States and become the only Super Power by crippling and corrupting the United States, which Republicans all over their Party gladly volunteered their services to defeat the Democrats. Putin wants a New Soviet Union with the United States as one of his puppet Fascist countries that licks his boots.
Does that mean that all Russians are evil? Hell no, but there have been a lot of Russian operatives filtered into the United States that have been working with the Republican Party, Right Wing organizations, and once iconic groups that turned on the Democratic Party, like the NRA... Among genuine Russian immigrants who do want a better life. It is an error for this country to think that former stars in the the Soviet Union ever decided to change their ways and goals for their country, the Soviet Union. Facebook and the internet have been a cheap gift to fulfill their dreams faster.

(3,530 posts)Go to any twitter link about this story and read the comments. Absolutely coo-coo land. The Democrats* are panicking and looking for anything to use.... So bizarre: all the polls show tRump losing, badly, and WERE the ones panicking?
Or all the sources are anonymous, so this never happened.... Not IMO this never happened. So I guess if a tree falls in the forest etc. etc. it really DOESNT make a sound. Also ignoring all the well documented cases where Dump disparages military figures ON CAMERA!
<on edit> I thought of a third thing. Every time someone criticizes tRump, or new revelations come out, its all fake news or part of some grand Deep State plan to sully the reputation of the honourable man they worship. It never occurs to them that maybe, just maybe, the reason all these horrid stories keep coming out (sexual assault allegations, disparaging the military, grifting money from the taxpayers) is because the man is a genuine POS and always has been. No, no, everybody is lying except DJ Dump, even though he has been shown time and again, by his own words, to be a compulsive liar.
I console myself by assuming these must be Russian bot accounts messing with the narrative. I mean, people cant REALLY be that stupid, can they?
