Obviously he has to pretend that he never made lots of money with all that corruption. You know he is an honest man. 555

With Thaksin we can be sure that at least 90% of what he says is made up to what he thinks people want to hear. Unfortunately for many years many Thais believed him.

He should play in that pool 24/7.

You are joking, right? Thaksin would love to be PM until 90 if people would let him do that. Finally he seem to have understood that the majority of Thais don't want him anymore and don't want his party anymore. So instead of losing an election he doesn't even participate in it. This way he can at least dream about he would have won it if he would have participated. Thaksin does nothing for any noble reason. He did lots of things to benefit himself and his family and he was often smart enough to convince the masses that he is their savior, and he only does it for them. Good that by now more Thais woke up and don't accept his BS anymore. And for the record: I was here since before Thaksin started in politics. And when he started about the first thing that happened was his so called "honest mistake". They should have, and could have, legally stopped him at that time.

You have to expect to always pay tax and customs. Be lucky if you don't pay, but you shouldn't expect that. If you don't pay tax and customs, then you paid for the item and don't get your item. Which will sooner or later convince you of above.

Yeah, why am I not surprised that you are not familiar with the concept of facts. But maybe that makes life easier for you. Wear a MAGA hat, prey, shout hurray and all will be fine in your mind. 😉

It seems that many guys in Thailand don't trust their gf or wife. For that reason, for many the first thought is that you want to do something like that. If you want to do something relating business and not relating to any wife or girlfriend, then it makes a lot of sense in this forum to make this 100% clear. If you do that, then you won't receive many comments like above.

It could be. But I don't think much will happen. Years ago, people said that Chalerm knows all the dirt about anybody. That made him pretty much untouchable. I am also sure that other politicians will know lots of bad things about Chalerm. Now, will all of them publish what they know, and they will all destroy each other? Or will they just continue like usual, nobody exposes anybody else.

Charlerm is the poster boy to show what is wrong with this country. He should be rotting in jail together with Thaksin and many others.

I am surprised that you are not aware of this fact. Maybe you should read from time to time those sources who criticize Trump. Sometimes they do actually report the truth... He lies all the time! How can anybody believe a guy who lies constantly?

If someone lies about the size of the place where he lives (11,000 square feet compared to 30,000 square feet) how can you trust such a person? And it's not just to trust him in business it is trusting him with the whole nation, 300 million people, the job of commander in chief, ...

No, it was more like: Don't walk on Sukhumvit at night and wonder how many of the women are women and why they are there.

It seems for most politicians it's about winning and having the power and not much else. Many GOP politicians accept Trump now because they know this is their only chance to survive in the GOP. Many of them didn't have much good to say about Trump before 2016. And recently the DEMs were talking a lot about how they can win the election with the old Biden. The fact what we is/was not able to do the job anymore seemed to be a minor issue. Winning is everything. Sad.

Somehow your view of leftists is wrong. A) Maybe you talk about the most left of the left, maybe 5% of the population. Yes, those might be those gender study idiots. B) If you consider anybody left of center, maybe about 50% of the population, you should be able to find out that they don't have much to do with what you describe above. Maybe you noticed that some of the left, especially the once with the big mouth, claim that anybody in the right is a nazi and a racist and all that. Are you a nazi and a racist? I guess not. Are you right of the center? I guess yes. There is not just radical left and radical right.

I guess the woke idiots and DEI crowd and all those are summarized as The Left. Then there are those who want unlimited immigration, no police anymore, nobody gets arrested, and all that. And let's not forget the idiots who don't know what a woman is. Personally, I think they should just be called Idiots.
