    I agree. Windows doesn’t belong in buildings. They belong on the outside of the buildings. Also, Linux joke.

    “They just come up, they want to do things like no more cows and no windows in buildings,” the Republican White House nominee said during a campaign event with Hispanic voters in Las Vegas on Saturday. “They have some wonderful plans for this country. Honestly, they’re crazy, and they’re really hurting out country, badly.”

    This guy is failing apart in real time…

    Fuck windows… where my Linux bros at?

    I guess if you really need to use windows you could still do it outside - but that shit (and cows) are no longer going to be allowed in buildings.

    I figured someone would be in here commenting on the benefits of banning cows and windows, and I was not wrong.

    I know where he is with the cow thing, that’s been an intentional misinterpretation for a while, but what’s the windows thing about. The article didn’t seem to clarify it.

    Well he isn’t exactly wrong.

    No cows would drastically cut methane emissions and not having windows would conserve energy and cut greenhouse gas emissions related to energy production.

    Cutting greenhouse gas emissions and energy conservation are two progressive goals(democrat talking points).

      Would it help? Yeah

      But do democrats want to ban windows? Yeah I’m going to go out on a limb and say I doubt it.

      Ban cows? Yeah again I doubt it.

        It is more about an extreme understanding of the issue reduced to simple talking points. Democrats say cows are a problem, so they want to ban them. Democrats want to make buildings more efficient and windows are a big source of inefficiency, Democrats want to ban windows.

        Trump exerts influence on simple minds through simple statements that cause outrage by distilling complex issues into logical extremes that offend people who can’t bother to understand complex issues. That is why he is so widely liked, he is the junk food of politics.

        True, but Trump likes simple words to convey simplified ideas to simple minds. Reducing beef consumption to zero is a ban by any other name. Increasing taxes on beef production until it is unprofitable is a defacto ban.
