@Jolly said in Praising him with faint damn:
Back up far enough and everything is transitory except God.
Mankind has been here for millions of years. God was invented/discovered (depending on your beliefs) about 4000 years ago. So that claim doesn't really hold.
Alternatively - what was the big fella doing for all those millions of years when dinosaurs ruled the earth? Not much, if you belief the blokes in silly hats.

Alpha and Omega, babe.
Before the foundations of the world...

I think there's some serious questions here. The biblical stories really kind of assume not a whole lot happened before mankind arrived, and that's really not true.
Unless of course you believe that stuff about dinosaur fossils being placed there to test our faith, which feels faintly ridiculous.
Anyway, getting back to Tony Blair, the point is, nobody has a clue what he's doing now. Hopefully the same will be said of Don Jnr and that other brother whose name I can't recall in 10 years time.

Ah yes, when challenged employ the trusty old Acme Alpha and Omega Spackle gospel and parable.

I don't think Alpha and Omega really existed before the Greeks. The stoneage people probably referred to them as grunk and gronk, or something similarly edifying.
And Christ alone knows what the dinosaurs thought about all this nonsense.

Probably very little.
The big question is how Neanderthals and other prehistoric hominids perceived the natural world or whether they even bothered to give it much thought.

My understanding is that Vance was never meant to be the heir apparent, though it has been presented that way.

Blair and Trump(CF) have much in common. Property aquistion (with family legacy that goes along with it) seem the Blairs' main concern.

As of February 2025, former UK Prime Minister Tony Blair remains actively engaged in various initiatives, focusing on technology, leadership, and international relations.
Advocacy for Digital Identification and Technology in Governance
Blair has been a proponent of implementing national digital ID systems and utilizing technologies like live facial recognition to address issues such as populism, illegal immigration, crime reduction, and benefit fraud. He emphasizes the role of artificial intelligence (AI) in enhancing public services and achieving cost savings, suggesting that a universal digital ID could streamline government interactions and empower individuals. 
Publication on Leadership
In September 2024, Blair released a book titled “On Leadership: Lessons for the 21st Century,” offering advice for political leaders based on his experiences as Prime Minister. The book discusses the personal challenges faced by senior officials, including managing social media pressures and achieving work-life balance in demanding careers. 
Engagement in Middle East Diplomacy
Blair continues to leverage his extensive contacts in the Middle East to assist current political leaders. He has been working with Labour leader Keir Starmer, facilitating introductions and building relationships with regional leaders, including Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu. Blair’s efforts aim to assure the Israeli government of consistent UK policies should Labour win the next general election. 
Advocacy for Artificial Intelligence
Blair has become a prominent advocate for artificial intelligence, viewing it as a transformative force comparable to the Industrial Revolution. He criticizes governments for being slow to embrace AI’s potential and emphasizes its capacity to improve government efficiency, economic growth, and public services like healthcare and education. He also acknowledges public concerns about AI and stresses the importance of government oversight to balance innovation with public interest. 
Through these endeavors, Tony Blair continues to influence global policy and governance, focusing on technological advancements, leadership strategies, and international diplomacy.

Vance will be the nominee in 2028, unless he does something crazy like turn against Trump once Trump starts doing things like asking his followers to reject election results.

Heard Trump interviewed yesterday by Levine. He still thinks 2020 was rigged.

I think Trump is pathologically unable to realize he can lose at stuff...elections, business, court, almost like he lives in his own reality (like Steve Jobs would do sometimes, I've read).
