Months after leaving the White House, former President Donald Trump allegedly discussed potentially sensitive information about U.S. nuclear submarines with a member of his Mar-a-Lago Club -- an Australian billionaire who then allegedly shared the information with scores of others, including more than a dozen foreign officials, several of his own employees, and a handful of journalists, according to sources familiar with the matter.
In emails and conversations after meeting with Trump, Pratt described Trump's remarks to at least 45 others, including six journalists, 11 of his company's employees, 10 Australian officials, and three former Australian prime ministers, the sources told ABC News.

What was their reasoning? Was it to avoid criticizing Trumpski?*** Would they consider inserting an unrelated substitute phrase for the word Mormon?
I know only one penguin that pretends to know what he don’t know. Why do you insist on making sh** up about people you have never met?moksha wrote: ↑Fri Oct 20, 2023 10:12 pmWhat was their reasoning?

*** I know a lot of Mormons, Russians, and Evangelicals are still big Trumpski fans.
Hacked by a moderator?!!!
Binger, even though you've taken on a different persona here that does not continually sow chaos, you act snotty toward me. Is that because you realize I have experienced your true self elsewhere? Hey, I was simply a spectator and not one of the people continually curb-stomping you for your behavior.Mayan_Elephant wrote: ↑Sat Oct 21, 2023 6:49 am I know only one penguin that pretends to know what he don’t know.

By elsewhere, do you mean places where I go by Binger? Are you bringing that into NOM again? I am not acting snotty toward you. I am asking you why you insist on maligning people that you do not know. Particularly, I am curious why you use stereotypes to do that. In a conversation, you made things up suggesting that Mormons would strap on bombs and enter a crowd. That is not kind, not true, and not based on facts. Do not take it personally when I question why you would assert something so damn awful. I am genuinely curious what motivates such a heinous suggestion about people - when you do not have any basis for the suggestion.moksha wrote: ↑Mon Oct 23, 2023 5:08 pmBinger, even though you've taken on a different persona here that does not continually sow chaos, you act snotty toward me.

Your making things personal results immediately in people taking things personally. I want you to get off my back and leave me alone.Mayan_Elephant wrote: ↑Mon Oct 23, 2023 7:41 pm Do not take it personally when I question why you would assert something so damn awful.
That’s great, Moksha. I applaud your request. I am not on your back. This is not a wrestling match. You are part of a group forum here. You are not alone.

Actually, Moksha’s request might sound something like this, “I would like to be able to exaggerate to the ridiculous to make a joke and have people understand that I am exaggerating to the point of ridiculous and not take it as literal.”Mayan_Elephant wrote: ↑Tue Oct 24, 2023 6:49 amThat’s great, Moksha.

If you were to make your request without using metaphors i believe it would be something like this:
“I, Moksha, want to make stereotyping or bigoted comments about Mormons, Russians, Evangelicals, Republicans and anyone who associates with candidates and ideologies that I do not like, and I would like to only have positive or affirming feedback when I make those comments. Additionally, I would like to make personal comments about a forum member and not have that person react to my comments.”

Most of us here do understand that about our penguin and don’t take him literally. And when he does get real, we have to read what he wrote three more times to figure out that he really was serious. His joking exaggerated point was that some Mormons worship Trump as the Lord’s anointed to save the world in the last days from the evil baby eating Librals. And he is right that SOME Mormons are that….brainwashed, and he is way exaggerating because I don’t think any of them are that for gone. But my point being, that I got what he said as a joke, and you attacked him for it.
