Wow! didnt notice this thread
First off—my sincerest condolences about your mom. Wishing you and your family peace, strength, and all the very best in your new business ventures. Keep doing you, and may your next chapter be as successful as Rapture Security Systems (minus the marketing).
Speaking of which… please, please—no more commercials like the Rapture ads. I still can’t unsee the barbed wire, the dramatic lighting, and Grandpa’s teddy bear on that bed like it was a national security threat. This time, maybe invest in a proper marketing team or agency? That part, my friend, was definitely not you—LOL.
Now, shifting gears—since I was one of your main sparring partners re taco TACO President, let me say this: I know enough to know that not every word you shared back then truly reflected how things were—or how you may feel now. And I’m wise enough not to hold you to every syllable expressed in support of a certain... well, let’s just say: criminal, rapist, con man masquerading as a president.
You were conned, along with many more with more at stake—and that’s what con men do. So I owe you an apology for blaming the victim. It was unfair of me, especially now that you’ve had your “aha!” moment and evolved. Growth is real, and I respect that.
That said… I do still detect a tiny spark of lingering admiration or hope for Tariff Man—like there’s one last shred of faith trying to hang on. I get it—it’s hard to admit you got played. But trust me, it’s real: the guy actually believes foreign companies pay the tariffs—or worse, he wants you to believe that he believes it.
So don’t wait on that for your next, 'I knew it moment'. It’s not going to happen.
