  1. From Cook Report - talking about Georgia. It's notable that a place like Towns Co. (Trump +61 in '20) is at 92% of its final '20 turnout, while Clayton Co. (Biden +71) is at 69% of its '20 turnout," he wrote on X. "Doesn't tell us who will win GA, just that Dems have more work to do than Rs to turn out their vote in the final days."
  2. Democrats on this forum proving, yet again, they are humourless, sanctimonious and...... Lonely wee old men.
  3. Can someone tell the forum PNutter he"s on ignore please. ( do you see what I did there 🤪 )
  4. If only PNut had been a Mexican.......
  5. Save Our Squirrels!!!!
  6. And they killed Fred the Racoon - MURDERERS
  7. Democrats hate you
  8. Nevada has closed with 1,085,000 early votes. Mail in votes will still be collected. GOP 39% Dems 34% Jon Ralston reckons it will take a landslide of late votes from Clark County to overturn the GOP lead. Looks like Nevada has gone for Trump, and Arizona - we'll see.
  9. I'm still waiting on a list of far right policies promoted by Trump?
  10. Give it a rest, unlike you I served. But I suppose I served to give morons the freedom to talk drivel on the Internet? Oh well, carry on.
  11. The majority of these are not far right policies and you are kidding yourself by posting this nonsense. Personally, I have my opinion about abortion. I'm comfortable with British law on the subject. It's time the Republicans got off the subject and left it to the individual states to decide.
  12. I had a hunch you were playing dumb but I see that's not the case, you're not "playing" at it. Read this: https://medium.com/@iskandar.talaei/dei-explained-by-james-lindsay-53dd9cd510d2
  13. Okay, I'll bite - list the far right policies that Trump introduced during his Presidency.
  14. I know the difference between a Marxist and a socialist, and if you don't think that Marxism is pouring through the American Left then you aren't paying attention.
  15. You've never met genuine far right. Its a fantasy you've allowed to develop in your head.
  16. pattayasan will be here in a few moments to explain that photograph and how it affects his life today. That's because pattayasan is a world expert on everything and he knows exactly what that photo represents and how it affects his life today. Over to you, pattayasan.
  17. And yet another hoax is born. The genuine American left regard the Cheney family as rancid scum, the Devil incarnate. They are not falling for this drivel. They agree with Trump, how fast would Cheney be to declare war if she was on the front line? And this was the received wisdom on the Left for decades. Liz Cheney is a neocon, she is her father in drag. The neocons detest Trump as they love nothing better than forever wars. They feel they can impose America's will on the world and fear anyone growing strong enough to challenge. That's the primary reason why the US military budget is wild compared to other countries, and the primary reason why its regarded as virtually traitorous to suggest reducing the budget. In this, I also blame Trump, as he also fell for the "boast about increasing military spending" blunder. The USA does not need a near Trillion dollars per year military spend. The country effectively cannot be invaded, and there's no appetite for overseas intervention after the Iraq War etc. More to the point, drone warfare is the next frontier. Soldiers will be replaced by targeted AI flying thousands of small impact explosive drones onto grid targets.
  18. Yes, I'm aware of that and he couldn't have brought in a better policy to destroy farms. Naturally the clown brigade is all over Jeremy Clarkson buying a farm to escape IHT. He is far from normal. Normal are families who are emotionally tied to their land and lifestyle for generations. I have no problem with Clarkson types having to pay IHT for the first generational transfer. Hitting people who have owned land for 200 years with IHT is just ridiculous. They have no control over the value, it's governmental brutality against the custodians of our countryside. Truly appalling.
  19. I rarely discuss British politics. I will say that the level of rage I'm seeing is off the scale. The attack on farmers is unbelievable. My mate, who's a ninth generation farmer and unmarried, is in a panic as he reckons he's leaving a crippling inheritance tax bill to his nieces and nephews. These are just working class kids. He thought he would die on the farm, he's now looking to sell and distribute the cash before death. Who's going to buy? Companies - and they'll turn the British countryside into factory farms. Generations of independent knowledge and care will disappear. It's absurd. You're not a farmer, you don't care? Right - my Dad has just discovered that his pension scheme is liable to 40% tax. This is a man who started off down the mines, and worked in engineering and quarries his entire life. He lives a frugal life, he remembers poverty, as does my mother. He now has eighteen months to obliterate his pension savings or lose 40% to the tax man. He's just recovering from an illness, not doing well at the moment, and he gets hit with this just before his 80th birthday. It's cruel.
