How would they even do that? Every right-wing weirdo that I've seen that cares that much about city life has been so scared of the "crime" and "ghetto" there they won't step foot in the city lines.

A parody Halloween costume package from "Spirit" features the title "Conservative Guy Scared of Cities." The image shows a bearded man in a tactical-style "Nine Line" shirt posing confidently. Text on the package humorously lists features of the costume: "Saw that thing on the news," "Too many of 'those' people there," "Can’t park Ford Super Duty," and "Not scared, bro." The costume is labeled as "Adult Size Costume – One Size Fits Most."

Can't believe they're doing that dumbass weird old-man capitalization in diplomatic communications like this. Embarrassing.

It'll split the Democratic vote, guaranteed. There is no W that they can't turn into an L.

I can imagine an argument for certain artists that are so beloved that their art sells globally or they entertain at a massive scale. Think Taylor Swift, or LeBron James. You can wrangle over the specifics of any individual, of course, but in theory that seems reasonable to me on the face of it. I can also imagine a persuasive argument for a business tycoon that builds up his workforce along with his own coffers and keeps them wanting for nothing. But the circumstances around that are pretty far fetched as far as the typical sociopathic billionaire tycoon goes.

That's a fair conclusion to draw, but that very well might mean you have to physically fight for the outcome you want.

Agreed. I think we only need to really worry when they make their way up the pile and the dust is brushed off. Are we there yet? I dunno. Maybe? The existence of the plan isn't the issue, though.

Europeans will believe this.

Well, there is also jail. Hard to use your money if you're locked up in a gulag. Or if you fall out of a window. Or if your helicopter crashes. Or if you simply disappear.
