Yes, however it was not a politically fatal wound because he WON the 2024 election. When the shots rang out, Trump ducked behind the podium and nobody knew if he was hit fatally until he rose up, with blood on his face, shaking his fist and saying "FIGHT, FIGHT, FIGHT" but it looked like he was saying the F word over and over again. Below are over 40 bible verses describing the character traits of the Antichrist, and they align magically with Trump.

Nobody in the history of the world ever "caused fire to come down from heaven to the earth in full view of the people." For thousands of years, people have sent rockets away from earth to the heavens to fall on the enemy far away, but they never brought fire down to earth from heaven. I'm not a big fan of the bible, but I thought these verses sounded interesting and should be known by the GOP. Revelation 13:11-17 "Then I saw a second beast [False Prophet (FP)], coming out of the earth. It had two horns like a lamb, but it spoke like a dragon. It [FP] exercised all the authority of the first beast [Antichrist (AC)] on its behalf and made the earth and its inhabitants worship the first beast [Twitter disinformation], whose fatal wound had been healed [Trump survived assassination attempt and his ear wound healed]. And it performed great signs [SpaceX, Tesla, Starlink, etc], even causing fire to come down from heaven to the earth in full view of the people. Because of the signs it was given power to perform [DOGE] on behalf of the first beast [AC], it deceived the inhabitants of the earth [Twitter disinformation]. It ordered them to set up an image in honor of the beast who was wounded by the sword and yet lived [wounded by the assault rifle and yet lived]. The second beast [FP] was given power [DOGE] to give breath to the image of the first beast [AC], so that the image could speak [Twitter disinformation] and cause all who refused to worship the image to be killed [????] It [FP] also forced all people, great and small, rich and poor, free and slave, to receive a mark on their right hands or on their foreheads [MAGA red caps], so that they could not buy or sell unless they had the mark [T], which is the name of the beast [Trump] or the number of its name [45-47]."

Interesting to me in Trump's answer to the question, was the first few words: "Well, it doesn't, but they get it easily. I mean, we don't have very good security in this country, and they get it very easily." 'Disgrace': Critics outraged by apparent confession at Trump's latest press conference First of all, yes it is true, we DON'T have very good security (e.g. Mar-A-Lago Documents Case), so he publicly declared that he WILL exploit that! Trump is brutally honest most of the time. That's how a good con works, it is 90% true. Those first 3 words in his answer "Well, it doesn't..." Those words are pregnant with meaning. I wish reporters would think fast, and after he speaks in fragments, have some good follow up questions. Reporter: "Mr. President, we understand that you think and speak with "the weave" and how it all comes together in the end, so please elaborate, please tell us what you were trying to say in your first 3 words "WELL, IT DOESN'T". It doesn't what? That is very interesting. What doesn't what? Also, WHAT do you mean by "IT" when you say "it doesn't"? It seems you mean that the act of stealing data from the govt doesn't do something. What doesn't stealing data do?" Trump speaks in sentence fragments, and each fragment has more content to it, so please get him to elaborate on the fragments.

When a reporter asked Trump if Musk and his Muskrats, really NEEDED that access to Americans' sensitive data? Trump replied, "Well, it doesn't, but they get it [DATA?] easily. I mean, we don't have very good security in this country, and they get it very easily." 'Disgrace': Critics outraged by apparent confession at Trump's latest press conference WHAT doesn't?! WTF "IT DOESN'T"?!! And WHO is "they" that gets "IT" easily? YES, "we don't have very good security in this country, so I will exploit that weakness. I will hollow out security services, FBI, CIA, Inspectors General everywhere, and anyone who can oppose me" (which will please Putin and Xi.) "THEY (we) GET IT VERY EASILY" by having Musk and his Muskrats as blitzkrieg computer commandos working in only 3 weeks! We will never know how much data they stole already. They were (or are) camping in several agencies, sleeping on cots, doing "hardcore" copying of data for future use and abuse. Even if every court rules they must stop, they will ignore the courts, because the courts have no police to enforce their rulings. Trump has new expanded immunity, so he and Elon may ignore ALL court orders, even from SCOTUS. Trump gets away with EVERYTHING because of expanded immunity, and his militia of Proud Boys, Oath Keepers, etc - (who owe Trump their freedom through inappropriate PARDONS) - they all KNOW THEY WILL BE PARDONED FOR ANY CRIME THEY COMMIT.

This is a discussion board. Why bring up something that cannot be discussed?

Thanks! You got me thinking. I asked ChatGPT how can a "total station" theodolite be used to measure the height of breaking waves from shore: "Using a total station theodolite to measure the height of breaking waves is a clever application of surveying technology. Since a total station can measure both angles and distances with high precision, it can be adapted for this purpose with the right setup. Here's how it could be done: Step-by-Step Method to Measure Wave Heights: Set Up the Total Station: Position the total station on stable, elevated ground (like a pier, seawall, or coastal platform) where it has a clear line of sight to the area where waves are breaking. Ensure the total station is leveled and properly calibrated. Establish a Reference Point: Identify a fixed point at sea level (like a tide gauge or a buoy with a known elevation) as your baseline reference. Alternatively, use mean sea level as the reference point if the equipment allows for it. Tracking the Breaking Wave: As a wave approaches and breaks, use the total station's telescope to sight the crest of the wave. Record the vertical angle (elevation) to the crest at the exact moment of breaking. Simultaneously, the total station can measure the horizontal distance to the wave. Calculating Wave Height: Using the vertical angle and horizontal distance, apply basic trigonometry to calculate the height of the wave crest above sea level. Formula: Height=Distance × tan(θ)\text{Height} = \text{Distance} \times \tan(\theta)Height=Distance×tan(θ) Where: Distance = Horizontal distance from the total station to the wave. θ (theta) = Vertical angle from the instrument to the wave crest. Adjust for Total Station Height: Subtract the height of the total station above sea level to get the actual wave height. Final Wave Height: Wave Height=(Distance×tan(θ))−Instrument Height\text{Wave Height} = (\text{Distance} \times \tan(\theta)) - \text{Instrument Height}Wave Height=(Distance×tan(θ))−Instrument Height Practical Considerations: Accuracy: For the most accurate results, the total station should have a clear, unobstructed view, and atmospheric conditions (like refraction) should be considered. Automation: Some modern total stations can be set up with tracking capabilities to automatically follow moving objects like waves, but this depends on the equipment. Data Logging: Use a total station with data logging features to capture continuous wave measurements over time for analyzing wave patterns. Alternative Techniques: While using a total station is precise, wave heights are also commonly measured with: Wave buoys equipped with GPS and accelerometers. Radar systems and LiDAR for remote sensing. High-speed cameras combined with photogrammetry. However, a total station offers a solid, land-based method if you're looking for high-precision measurements in coastal studies or engineering projects.

Why? Please explain. I personally enjoy diversity. It makes MY life more interesting. I also approve of equity, and inclusion. What would the GOP prefer? UNIFORMITY, INEQUITY, & EXCLUSION (UIE)? What divides America more, DEI or UIE? If anyone thinks the Dems are doing DEI wrong, then fix it! Do DEI the right way. "Diverse perspectives bring a variety of ideas and approaches, fostering innovation. Teams with members from different backgrounds often find unique solutions to problems due to their varied experiences. Diverse groups tend to analyze situations more thoroughly and consider more options, leading to better decision-making. Studies show that inclusive teams can make decisions twice as fast with half the number of meetings. Companies with strong DEI practices often outperform their peers financially. Research by McKinsey & Company found that companies in the top quartile for ethnic and gender diversity are more likely to have above-average profitability. Inclusive workplaces tend to have higher job satisfaction and lower turnover rates. Employees who feel valued and included are more likely to be engaged and productive. DEI initiatives attract a wider range of candidates, giving organizations access to top talent from all backgrounds. This helps in addressing skill shortages and promoting merit-based growth. Organizations committed to DEI are often seen as ethical and socially responsible, which can attract customers, clients, and investors. A strong DEI reputation can also lead to better community relations and customer loyalty. DEI initiatives help build cultural awareness and sensitivity, which is crucial in a globalized world. This fosters better communication and collaboration in diverse settings. DEI programs promote fairness and equity, helping to identify and reduce systemic barriers. This leads to a more inclusive environment where everyone has equal opportunities to succeed. Diverse teams are more effective at anticipating customer needs and addressing challenges because they can draw from a broader range of experiences and knowledge. DEI initiatives contribute to building more equitable societies, reducing inequalities, and fostering social cohesion. They play a role in empowering underrepresented groups and promoting social justice." Diversity, equity, and inclusion - Wikipedia

When I searched Youtube for "elon musk warp drive" and "elon musk anti-gravity" I found over 20 Youtubes that indicate Elon Musk is either working on these exotic phenomena or is already unveiling them! One said that Musk is currently testing warp drive in orbit around Earth! I only watched a couple of these and nowhere in the Youtubes I watched does it explain ANYTHING about warp drive or anti-gravity, except for what we have heard since Star Trek in the late 1960s. The two Youtubes I watched were more like commercials for SpaceX. These 22 videos all have different titles, but I suspect some of them are the same, just using different titles. Elon Musk is a master of disinformation and false prophet. How far away are warp drive and anti-gravity from practical application? IT HAPPENED! Elon Musk FINALLY Reveals New Warp Drive Starship!

"Who should have children?" People living in North Korea, Russia, Europe, and China, for starters. There are dwindling workers, in those countries, to support the elderly retired. The USA will have to recon with this eventually. "Countries with a total fertility rate (TFR) below 2 children per woman are generally considered to have fertility levels below the replacement rate, which is roughly 2.1 children per woman in most developed countries. This threshold is necessary for a population to replace itself without migration. As of recent data, many countries fall into this category, particularly in Europe, Asia, and the Americas. Most European countries have fertility rates below 2, including: Germany, Italy, Spain, Portugal, France, the United Kingdom, Russia, Poland, Ukraine, Hungary, Sweden, Denmark, and Finland. Many Asian countries also have low fertility rates, including: South Korea (among the lowest globally), Japan, China, Taiwan, and Hong Kong. Thailand, Singapore, and Vietnam. Iran and Sri Lanka. Several countries in North and South America have TFRs below 2: United States, Canada, and Puerto Rico. Brazil, Chile, and Uruguay. Australia and New Zealand have fertility rates below 2. While most African nations have fertility rates above 2, a few exceptions exist: North African countries like Tunisia and Libya. "Factors Contributing to Low Fertility Rates: Urbanization: Urban lifestyles tend to reduce fertility rates. Education and Employment: Higher levels of education and workforce participation among women are associated with lower fertility. Economic Factors: High costs of living, child-rearing, and housing can deter larger families. Cultural Shifts: Changing attitudes toward marriage, family size, and gender roles. Access to Contraception: Widespread availability and use of contraceptives reduce unplanned pregnancies. "Low fertility rates are often linked to aging populations and concerns about labor shortages, leading some countries to adopt policies to encourage higher birth rates, such as paid parental leave, subsidies, and housing benefits."

I never said Musk posted these sh!t. Of course, Musk MAY NOT have anything to do with these bogus Youtubes about his warp drive and anti-gravity, but Musk never disagrees with them. The videos could be posted by ANYBODY, by Musk or Trump supporters, or even Russia. He never debunks them, why would he? This is research into WHAT is being posted to the general public. You are obviously too intelligent to be considered general public. You are even a MODERATOR on the science discussion site! That is above my pay grade. Musk never says the bogus videos are false.

Besides pretending to be making progress on a "warp drive" Elon is also claiming A "Revolutionary Anti-Gravity Fighter Jet." Let me save you from watching this 20-minute Youtube about Musk's "anti-gravity." I watched this Youtube and there is NOTHING about anti-gravity in it. That is how easily Elon lies. He has many Youtubes that say Elon is working on "anti-gravity" or "warp drive," but there is nothing about anti-gravity or warp drive in any of those Youtubes. Try searching Youtube for "Elon Musk Warp Drive" and I found at least EIGHT videos about his non-existent "warp drive."

In big wave surfing the wave heights are estimated based on how tall the surfer riding the wave is. The surfer is the unit of measure. IS THERE A WAY to use radar, lasers, GPS, or whatever electronic devices, to exactly measure the height of a breaking wave, from the shore in real time? For example, this is how a wave's height is currently estimated: Mike Parsons at Cortes Bank on Jan 6, 2008. 13 times overhead. 13 x 6 = 78 feet. The actual estimate was 77 feet. Here is a recent wave at Mavericks, on Dec 23, 2024, that some are calling 100 feet tall. But how tall is it really?

Recently I saw an interview of Musk and he was sounding very normal, reasonable, and intelligent and was also answering questions seriously. Then he interjected "See you on Mars you suckers!" and burst out laughing.
