He didn't himself, but he pushed repeatedly for it to be part of the big tax bill. Spoiler: it didn't make it in. And I believe this was when GOP had all the power.

He pushed for it to be part of a tax bill, but GOP blocked. Trump blamed the RINO's.

He tried to. He pushed repeatedly to remove certain tax breaks for hedge fund gains. I don't recall the details, but at the time Trump blamed RINO's for blocking it.

I've never been a fan of EO's, but I kind of wish Trump EO'd this one just to see if Biden would overturn it.

Big question is whether there's any way to verify whether this one was counted or rejected. Just being accepted doesn't mean counted.

The existence of the ballot being accepted shows voter fraud has taken place.

But if it was rejected, then that would mean the system worked, and this is a false-positive that we don't want to waste time going after.

Then again, if they were going to catch this when counting votes, how did an absentee ballot go out in the first place? Did she sign up for absentee back before 2004? It just looks really, really bad.

I saw a Tim Allen live show in San Diego a few years ago, and I'm pretty sure he made a remark to the effect of tailoring the show based on the audience. I imagine this applies for a lot of stand-up comics.

I was at a Trump boat parade here in San Diego a few weeks ago, and overheard a couple of ladies talking about how they didn't bother voting in 2016 (this being California and all), but after all the talk of how Clinton won the popular vote, they're absolutely going to be sure to vote, to increase Trump's popular vote count in 2020.

I saw one video with people on a roof, but I believe they climbed out through the second story window. One comment said it was the people who lived them coming out to support the protesters, not protesters climbing up onto a roof. I don't know what the truth is, but the video did make it look like they'd just come out the window.

If it were me, with a second story window opening over the awning, I don't think I'd want to climb out onto it at night, but I'm clumsy, so I'd be sure to fall off...

Resizable textboxes are very nice, but I'd also recommend setting a sane minimum size as well. It looks a bit silly to be able to shrink the textbox to roughly a 16x20 pixel box!

(This is an extremely minor quibble. There are certainly higher priorities than visual aesthetics that most people will never encounter.)

http = not encrypted, much like a postcard, where everyone who moves it from the sender to the receiver can read it

https = encrypted, like sending an envelope containing a shredded note written in a made-up language that only you and the recipient can correctly reassemble and understand (only more secure)

Embedding http in https can compromise the encrypted data by having access to it when not encrypted. (I know networking, but I've never read up on http embedded on an https page, so I don't know the finer details.)

I saw mentioned somewhere that he'd worn the hat to school two weeks prior, and was bullied since (causing him to stop wearing it, but still getting bullied). Don't know how accurate that is, and don't recall where I'd read it.

Edit: From the boy's mother:

"To be clear, my son bought his #Trump2020 hat with his own money at the flea market a few weeks ago. He was proud to wear it. He wore it to School, but due to immediate bullying he put it away & didn't wear it to school again, sadly the damage was already done & was now a target."

A ProtonMail subscription lets you access your e-mail via a locally installed mail client, such as Outlook or Thunderbird. It involves installing a separate program called ProtonMail Bridge which handles communication between their server and the client software, taking care of all the encrypting and decrypting.

"What email service did you switch to?"

I'm completely self-hosted for e-mail. It was a nightmare to get up and running, and there's occasional instances where other e-mail series block e-mail from me because my server's a little guy (in other words, same profile as a spammer's e-mail server).

One thing to keep in mind is that if Google's indexer visits /r/the_donald, it will encounter a quarantine message, and will not see any of the individual posts. So, Google's search engine can't even see the list of recent posts to see the "Merry Christmas" post.

(Google did completely de-list /r/the_donald for a while in the past, though. That was enough for me to start shifting over to using other services, such as hosting my own e-mail.)
