Trump Joins the Axis. NATO Dead. WW111 Imminent?
bannork replied to Old Croc's topic in Political Soapbox
USSR joined the Nazis to carve up Poland in WW2. They only joined the war because Hitler was mad enough to attack them, but true, their contribution meant the destruction of Nazi Germany. Unfortunately they decided post war to enslave Eastern Europe.- 403 replies

Trump popularity sinks as Americans quickly sour on economy: poll
bannork replied to bannork's topic in Political Soapbox
He's stopped Russia taking over his country for three years, dilapidated the Russian army until it's reduced to using donkeys, prisoners and North Korean troops. And the US hasn't had to lose a single soldier in Ukraine's decimation of Russian forces. The US owes Zelensky big time -
All hail the king

According to Reuters, Trump's job approval fell by three points since the start of his second term a month ago. "The share of Americans who think the economy is on the wrong track rose to 53% in the latest poll from 43% in the January 24-26 poll," Reuters writes. "Public approval of Trump's economic stewardship fell to 39% from 43% in the prior poll." Inflation rose to 3% during Trump's first month in office, with the prices of key grocery staples such as eggs and coffee hitting consumers particularly hard. Alarmingly for Trump, the poll found that his policy of imposing tariffs on imported goods had become unpopular with 54 % of respondents opposed, in contrast to only 41% in favour.

Musk targets Social Security with blatant misinformation
bannork replied to Jingthing's topic in Political Soapbox
52% popularity for Zelensky in the last poll in December. More than Trump's current figures As for Musk, who can believe a man who shoots his mouth off without knowing the facts? Gaza received a countless number of condoms from USaid, he claimed. Nonsense, the condoms were to combat Aids in east Africa. Duh! -
Nothing rabid here Frank. Shame you're too blinded by love for the great appeaser to realise his stupidity, narcissism and love of autocrats.

What makes you think there'll be no more war? Just because Trump caves in to Putin doesn't mean Putin is going to stop.

Please don't overestimate your dumb President's constant narcissistic dribble. -
Musk targets Social Security with blatant misinformation
bannork replied to Jingthing's topic in Political Soapbox
The quote I was referring to was about Trump, not Musk. And indeed Trump confirmed his stupidity today claiming Zelensky has an approval rating of only 4 % when the last poll gave him more than 50%. He then claimed Ukraine could have stopped the war three years ago! Hello Trump, it was Russia who invaded Ukraine, you idiot, Russia who has bombed Ukraine for three years despite claiming they would win in three days. The embarrassment of having a President talk absolute tripe. -
Musk targets Social Security with blatant misinformation

Ain't no love lost between the redneck and Trump's current favourite. Bannon told writer James Billot with UnHerd that, “Musk is a parasitic illegal immigrant. He wants to impose his freak experiments and play-act as God without any respect for the country’s history, values, or traditions.” -

Maybe they're concerned their country is being run by ignorant goons who think they know the price of everything but actually know the value of nothing. -
Efforts Continue to Lift Alcohol Ban on Thai Trains and Boost Tourism
bannork replied to webfact's topic in Thailand News
Back in the 90s and early 10s, it was great to sit in the buffet car on the night train with open windows, enjoy a meal with beers and morlam in the background. A very civilised way to travel at night to Udon. Back then the non- air con trains were noisy as they swished and clattered along, so a few drunks staggering back to their bunks weren't too annoying for sleeping passengers, at least on the north- east line. But now all the sleeper trains are air-con, it's quiet in the carriages, drunk passengers returning would be disruptive, waking the others. There is a solution, however. Have one sleeper carriage or two solely for drinkers. Have it next to the buffet car so not far to stagger to bed. -

US farmers in America’s Maga heartlands are reeling from the impact of President Donald Trump’s various funding freezes according to the daily digest.com 1. On his first day Trump signed an executive order requiring the US Department of Agriculture (USDA) to freeze funds for farmers investing in infrastructure and environmental measures based on IRA associated initiatives under the Biden admin. 2. Funds were also frozen for programs such as research into climate-smart crops. Despite the fact the freeze on funds for the sector has since been reversed by the Department of Management and Budget after a federal judge blocked its implementation, farmers say their funding remain frozen, the Washington Post reports. 3. In 2020, the US government bought more than $2.1 billion in food aid from US farmers. Now $340 million worth of food assistance is on hold in US ports due to Trump's freeze on USAid. In Kansas, where USAid was the main market for farmers’ grain, Nick Levendofsky, executive director of Kansas Farmer’s Union, told CNN that the ability of farmers to sell their grain has come to “a screeching halt.” 4. In addition, the introduction of the steel tariff drives up the cost of already very pricey farming equipment.

Every day Trump shows his utter moral bankruptcy ( apart from his financial ones). From the violent insurrectionists of Jan 6th, through the corrupt NY Mayor to the evil and mass murderer, Putin, all can be forgiven and rewarded if they help Trump

Musk Fails When Confronted About Condom-Gate

Musk's nose picking kid could have added some dignity to the occasion by asking Donald if he could sit in his chair whilst he was mining his bogies. -

In Case You Missed it, the Tattoo Fad is Over
bannork replied to Walker88's topic in ASEAN NOW Community Pub
Most modern tattoos are as ugly as hell but you're unlikely to get a tattoo wearer to agree. Who's going to own up to deliberately disfiguring him/herself?
