I dunno if I'd chance it - I heard you can poke your eye out with one of those things...

On a golf course in Florida, but soon to move (back) into the White House.

Nah, things were much less energy efficient back then.

I think that hairstyle was popular in the mid-1960s - if I'm right, that's roughly $50 in today's money.

Edit: source is https://www.usinflationcalculator.com/ using the year 1965, and the official US government inflation calculator seems to concur.

You are... replying to yourself? Telling yourself "you are right"? I've been told it's better talking to yourself because you get better answers that way, but I was also told doing it out loud like this is likely going to be taken for a sign of insanity infused with a strong narcissistic complex. Might wanna temper that impulse...

Hardly. MAGAts learning the truth a couple months ago so what's about to transpire over the next four years was something COMPLETELY different would've been the greatest gift.

This is exactly what they HAVE been doing for DECADES! What a crock of shit!

Yeah, speaking as a native American who spent several years of childhood in Europe (so I think I generally have a much more expansive world view than the average American), I wouldn't even think of trying to enter this country for at least the next decade. This country is well down the path towards self-destruction, and those who've been manipulated into believing it's the right thing to do have dug themselves in too deep to ever dare admit they might have been wrong and allowed themselves to be lead around by the nose this whole time. I don't know what it's going to finally take, nor how long until it happens, but those people have fucked this country ROYALLY.

We're obviously about to start being a living demonstration of "things can always be worse," and/or "it's gonna get a LOT worse before it gets better" once that living embarrassment to American history gets back into the White House. Unless you're Caucasian (or can pass for one, including your name), and/or wealthy AF (or bring something to the table that the wealthy can exploit while using you), I would stay the fuck away from what is about to become Trump's personal "third world shithole."

Even if the American populace somehow magically wakes up from whatever spell the one-percenters have them under, and (even more unlikely) suddenly want to reverse course from all their mistakes, it's likely going to take at least another decade (or even two) after he's out of office/dead to rebuild what we're about to lose if Trump carries out even just half the terrible ideas he's been threatening/promising. Building things up always takes much longer than destroying them, and Trump is fully primed to embark on a revenge-fueled wave of destruction the likes of which this country hasn't seen in a LONG time.

Maybe try Australia?
