  1. Poor judgment by father to take his son on a new bike…get comfortable first and learn your limitations… Far overestimated his abilities….
  2. This is something Trump would say off the cuff…big statement little evidence…very similar to used car and snake oil salesmen
  3. Here is the problem I have with your post…like your resume, you inflate your statements…your “many illegals” equate to 5% of illegals have committed crime compared to adjusted data which is only half when compared to US citizens committing crimes US current deportation focus is to deport all illegals who commit crimes…why you say? Because that is all the money that has been budgeted…if you want more, then increase the budget drum roll to a practical number… trump makes this incredible stupid statements that’ all illegals immigrants will be imported…at what cost? Do the math that is over a trillion dollars if they deported a million a year over eleven years…who is picking up theses costs…taxpayers…trump’s history is he is the 3rd most president to increase the deficit…he is part of the problem like Biden…both presidents have continued to add to inflation/cost of living going up over the last 8 years there are illegal grandmothers who have been in the country 20years…what’s the point of deporting them? The biggest issue is the illegal workforce that contributes mightily to the US surging economy…they serve a useful purpose…it’s not like they are taking desirable jobs away from citizens? If you want to clean up an area…clean up an area try work comp…the fraud by US citizens to get disability insurance (meaning not work b/c they don’t want to work) is off the charts…get those people back to work rather than paying then not to work don't fall for this “ throw out the baby with the bath water” syndrome… trump’s 4 years of immigrant policy and deportation already has been unimpressive…”judge them by what they do and not what they say”…one needs to comprehend that statement clearly….tell me again who paid for the existing 300 mile museum of a wall? What a waste of taxpayers money by someone who talks in generalities yet accomplishes very little
  4. Trump spouted this this gloom and doom BS his first term and he ended up deporting far less than Obama and Biden did... Everyone is for deporting criminals whether crimes in their homeland or in USA...But start there....If you look at the numbers, that is the focus of who is deported concurrently...They could do a better job If you look at crime stats, US citizens for serious violent crimes commit twice that of illegals when data is adjusted and 4X that of illegals for property crimes...Americans need to look in the mirror and asked what is wrong with their culture? I vote to deport all criminals American citizens or not back to their ancestry country...don't use illegals as an excuse for a far greater cultural problem in USA....You don't deport 100% if only 5-10% is the problem...focus on the problem...that is what the Denver mayor is saying...
  5. The difference between east and west…this dog would have had already an owner and not be looking for one…just another day in the perilous life of a soi dog in Thailand…
  6. You don’t run a country or a gov as a business…you don’t have by design winners and losers and that’s exactly how the Trump gov will dysfunctionally operate…
  7. I doubt either parent came from a quality family background or genes and their poor children would suffer…who is in a worst state the living child or the dead child? what does the future bring for the 2nd child? No relative or friends stepped to the plate when it mattered the most? I hate it when I hear abuse or mental illness as the excuse for bad behavior…both parents would get the chair…they are lucky I am not running the show
  8. Easier to shag one ugly guy than 50 ugly guys….
  9. The bigger the screen poorer the eyesight what’s your point?
  10. And please tell us what the American public’s confidence level of the current US Supreme Court?
  11. And please tell us what the American public’s confidence level of the current US Supreme Court?
  12. Many Americans here are non college educated folks who grew up and worked in a blue working class society…they get by on their pensions and social security…not much more trump appeals to them b/c he is a brilliant salesman selling them on America is going to pot, gloom and doom,, traditional Christian family values are under attack, whites man needs to re-take their superior place in the pecking order… it’s understandable why he is popular in USA as truth, integrity and core values are not important to them….his voters and supporters speak the same language ( locker room and shop talk - “ grabbing by the P•••••y - is how the feel…look at his inner circle over time (Jeffery Epstein called him his best friend) and now….his picks for his cabinet are borderline shady characters or just unqualified for the job…loyalty is the only job criteria and his base loves it America went thru this in 1920s and 30s with America First movement (leading to WW2) and the McCarthyism era in the 50s…. All three periods have a common theme of paranoia and the feeling of being threatened or under attack
  13. You are comparing apples and oranges and cherry picking one particular bad example to a culture that goes completely unregulated and unenforced on their roads..Targeted and practical enforcement needs to start. You can also throw in an improved road infrastructure like eliminating face to face u-turns and putting smart signals instead of u turns on heavy volume road with speed limits of 90 Km...craziness.....Thai road infrastructure today mirrors the 1950's...It has nothing to do with being a nanny state but rather Thai authorities don't want to spend/invest the money necessary to reduce accidents/near accidents.
  14. I try to stay away from saying Thai drivers this or that but I have been driving in Thailand over 20 years. I can say that I put poor drivers in the 20-25% of all drivers on the roads. Don't know if Thai or foreigner but I observe daily road violations from minor to major to poor judgement errors...Never have seen enforcement proactively to concurrently happening...So the drivers go unpunished thus will continue these illegal/poor decisions in their future behaviours.. What Thai police need to do is make a list of top ten most dangerous driving behaviours and enforce..Can be done but the lack of will, lack of police training and providing the necessary resources to accomplish the mission. The culture refuses to accept how bad driving behaviours are in this country....That is the first step
  15. she left the child in the car running with the engine on so anyone could jump in the car and speed off? The gear shift makes a nice play toy...
  16. Why do you need to see the doctor for refills on medication especially BP or cholesterol? Go to any pharmacy…
  17. Trump has named no competent individuals for his cabinet…Maybe Rubio would be the only one who has experience, education and skills for the position trump is so paranoid to select experts like he did and get burned in his first term. His answer this time is to select politician loyalists only which will carry out his orders w/o thought or critical thinking…that’s the definition of a dictator who surrounds himself with those who drank the kool aid Name one person who meets the qualifications of that position vs I can name 5 other republicans or conservatives who are much more qualified for that position but poses a threat to Trump b/c they have their own ideas/vision/management style and Musk off to a good start, names 2 people to fill one position…the definition of gov efficiency? just remember, Trump added more to the national deficit in his term than any other president ever…the cost of mass deportation and tariffs replacing income tax will drive up inflation, cost of living and further add to the deficit exponentially if trump was smart, he would focus on reducing inflation and cost of living in his first year… Biden deported 150,000 in 2023 more than trump did in any of his 4 years..why didn’t he do more? It’s not how many are deported but who is deported and how many are getting in…sounds great to deport one million a year but projected at more than one billion $ dollars? he has said nothing about how he is going to keep out back fill…much more important than deporting people who are not breaking laws and a vital part of the work force…I don’t see MAGA folks picking artichokes in CA Central Valley any time soon…. extremism left or right will not work in any sustainable fashion…the upcoming mid election in 2 years will be the response…it always is
  18. and it is called “group think”…where everyone goes down the same rabbit hole thinking their way is the only way
  19. Do you mean the rape, murder and extinction of Native American nation? And throw in the slaughter of 60 million buffalos in a 25 year period…not bad for European white imperialists I mean white settlers looks like they will now get a 2nd crack at it - same formula just different era
  20. No issue to returning to home country due to free/low health care coverage
  21. The Brit is quite thin...don't see a beer gut I guess the vehicles collided but doesn't say which party was at fault...
  22. Fully agreed…there is no doubt inflation and cost of living have dramatically increased and they adversely impacts lifestyle But for those who think putting Trump in the WH again will significantly improve their lives are wrong… successful people will be successful regardless who is in the WH…and working class/poor people will continue on their path created mostly by their poor choices in life in how to get ahead… Trump will be no savior…the wealthy will get wealthier and the poorer/working class stays put due to policies and their own vices and personality/character flaws and associations
