ParticipantIt’s all a game until someone (or some computer) misinterprets it as a real threat and the missiles start flying.

ParticipantWould an order to commit genocide be lawful per international law? Also, is the person giving the order fully mentally healthy? A case could be made either way.

Better a court-martial a year in the future than killing a few million people.

ParticipantI’m not sure if “no one can stop him” is accurate — there’s a chain of command and a staff that might not pass the orders if they think POTUS has gone barking mad.

ParticipantProblem is that Japan and South Korea are both de-facto nuclear states. Without a US promise, they might take matters into their own hands.
Both have uranium and plute enrichment plants and the precision casting tech needed to build a working nuke. Delivery? Toss it out of a 737, fire a torpedo from a sub, or launch a cruise missile dropped from the same aircraft.

ParticipantDidn’t the Norkies threaten to blow up Guam first?

ParticipantWhy would hurting rents and property values, both of which are overpriced, be such a bad thing?

ParticipantSheesh, people are too picky. Can’t find a four-star hotel? Stay in a motel or in a hostel-type hotel with a bathroom in the hallway.
We went to a conference in the DC area last year. Price of the conference hotel: $175/night. Price of an older hotel in the city itself: $80/night.
It was a 1* hotel by amenities, but well rated. Really nice staff, garden out back, clean rooms, great area with ability to walk to get food, but the bathroom and shower were shared and in the hall.

ParticipantI know of an aggressive HOA president in the Tynebourne area of Carmel Valley that everyone hates, hates, hates.
Wait till they go on vacation. Post a Craigslist ad from anonymous wifi mentioning “moving — everything in the house is free” at their address 🙂 Maybe they’ll get the message…

ParticipantKayak or Expedia, quite a few motels on the north coast in the under-$120 range as well as under $100. Hotel is a place to sleep, nothing fancy needed as long as it’s clean. When you’re asleep, who gives a rip about number of stars?

ParticipantI hope more people buy it. The chaos when illusions come suddenly crashing down will be … exploitable.

ParticipantWho says anything about the measure of a president? It’s a measure of expectations, realistic or not.
Should be fun to watch what happens as promises are broken and expectations exceed reality. Ideally, reality will start hitting around the 2018 midterms and continue hitting through the impeachment process 🙂

ParticipantIt will be fun to see him eat his own words about the “big, ugly bubble”…
