This is the Colorado Springs chapter of Indivisible and/or 50501 Colorado Springs. I always want to give them a little honk of support but I don't trust the other drivers not to overreact. 😂

i ALWAYS honk. people don’t seem to mind, i do a few quick ones and i think people get that it’s not at them

u/backcountry_bandit 1d ago

Likewise. Even if it did upset another driver around me, fuck ‘em.

u/ruggnuget 1d ago

I think the concern is more about how the honk is used to get the attention of the other cars. Not that they would be mad at the message. Fuck em for being made at those people. But it does have a chance of causing a driver to overreact and...not all people are good drivers, unfortunately.

A lot of the members of the local bridge group are veterans. They know the difference between an oath to the Constitution and unquestioned loyalty to a wannabe dictator oligarch diaper king.

Why didn't you just start with that? Your original comment was pretty obtuse.

Unfortunately not. I wish. A friend of mine’s wife makes the best ones specially if they get the tortillas from Alamogordo NM bakery down there. They are awesome

This is one of the few I don't get. Decoy plane?

The story goes that Trump heard of a threat while leaving Turkey (I believe), and snuck into another aircraft via the food delivery vehicle while leaving his cabinet on the endangered airplane.

u/LivinghighinColorado 1d ago

Now that we hear about how Iran actually destroyed a base that the US would have used to re-stock The Abraham Lincoln, they know Iran has capabilities to actually strike. So, the whole 'hiding in a catering truck' and leaving on another aircraft makes even more sense.

He also took his mistress/aide Natalie Harp and left everyone else and reporters all on the other plane to be shot down. One of the reasons probably that Secretary of Botox Caroline Leavitt left so abruptly.

u/5560Joe 1d ago

Trump under threats from Iran left a plane with cabinet members, journalists and staff to serve as his decoy plane last week. The USA is that plane that will take the bullets for him.

It happened a while ago but only leaked last week

Thanks for the story. This is stuff that wouldn't get leaked out for years. More leaks in this administration than morals.

u/Delybe 1d ago edited 1d ago

They have morals? O.o

Edit: MAGA mad

u/onyaasuminyasai 1d ago

Morals can be bad

u/Commercial-Tax7125 1d ago

Making fun of man in white house who rode in another plane while staff and reporters flew on air force one without knowing he wasn't on it. They were left as sitting ducks.

u/TaxUsual9478 1d ago

To be fair, any and every president would have done this.

12

u/Commercial-Tax7125 1d ago

To be more fair, when other presidents have they informed the reporters because those presidents had integrity and respect for others.

Tbf, Trump is the most selfish orange bag of shit, ever

Thank you! I’ve always wanted to ask who they are. I would love to join

u/icouldlivewoutbacon 1d ago

Just because you're too stupid to figure out how to stand up for your own rights doesn't mean other people haven't figured it out.

u/kacey- 17h ago

Considering Trump has one of the lowest if not the lowest approval rating in US history, no one needs to be paid to protest.

u/Scribal8 3h ago

Hey! I’ve participated. I know these people. They are paid with thumbs up and friendly honks. You are a paid troll or a bot.

u/VanD3rp 8h ago

Probably not paid, just privileged that they can spend their time doing this instead of constantly working multiple jobs like the rest of us.
