Yes, a very reliable man/party

Donald J. Trump ✔ @realDonaldTrump

-------------------------------

Trump at his best . The world needs leaders with such an extrem knowledge. Yes, "Belgian is a nice city", too, Mr. Trump.

Si tacuisses, ........

It's nice to hear different words from a man with a higher IQ.

Mr. Erdogan,

what a broken logic (as usual).

1. Imagine the people in the EU-member states would do the same, demanding a denying vote about visa-free immigration for the Turks.

2. Imagine the EU-member states would ask their people demanding the Turkish people should abandon their Muslim faith for being Christians. This means you cannot make a referendum about subjects in the souvereignity of other countries.

Weak Pound is good. Good for foreign direct investment. Good for getting a proper trade balance back. Good for re-balancing the economy back to real production. Good for diminishing our enormous debts.

To avoid confusion pleas read

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/United_Kingdom_national_debt

<......>

The UK national debt is often confused (even by politicians) with the government budget deficit (officially known as the Public Sector Net Cash Requirement (PSNCR) ......

<..........>

........ As of 2011 around 35% of the national debt was owed to overseas governments and investors. ........

read in: http://www.live-counter.com/uk-national-debt-clock/

By 2011, the British national debt amounted to £940 billion, with most of the money, 35 percent in total, being owed to other governments and investors. On this debt interest alone cost more than £42.9 billion annually. By 2012 the national debt amounted to £1,278.2 billion. Currently, Great Britain's debt clock keeps ticking and adding more and more numbers to an already high amount. Every second Great Britain increases its debt by £5190 and every day by £448.500,000 as can be seen on the debt clock. Over the course of a year that implies a new £163 billion that the government owes to other people, governments and institutions, marking a solid £1,471 billion on the national debt clock above. Interestingly, the Bank of England still contributes its fair share to the debt – a rocking £42.4 billion, which is more than the national defense budget. Network Rail also contributes £33 billion to the total amount, which is the same amount the entire country of Uruguay can show for its GDP. Great Britain struggles to remain as great as it once was with so high a debt burden on its shoulders.

Now to your "Good for diminishing our enormous debts."

One example for paying US$ debts:

1 billion Dollar =

• Yesterday the exchange rate was 1 GBP = 1,485814 US $ 731.977.613 GBP
• Today the exchange rate is 1 GBP = 1,366862 US$ 677.592,113 GBP

difference: 54.385.450 GBP

What does it mean?

To pay back only 1 billion (1.000.000.000) US$ wouldn't diminish the debts for England, but increase it by more than 54 million US$. I guess Johnson didn't tell you.

If Trump would be logical and would follow his own words he had to accept this man carrying a gun.

Trump and logical ?

That is like walking over or into the water without making your feet wet.

All civilised countries should be making a stand against the islamists by following Trump's policy and keeping them out.

Do you think "Trump's policy" ( a joke) is a civilised one ???

Nobody saw Jesus' dead body in the tomb after his dead by crucifixion: Religious logic: raised from the dead.

As far as I remember the bible Jesus "went" to the "heaven" after raising from the dead, 60 days later, as it is celebrated now. But you read in one part of the bible that it happened 40 days after Easter Sunday and more "similar facts".

Why don't they build a monument there in the heaven ?

But ..... wait a moment. Does anybody know where the heaven is ? Within or beyond our Milky Way? At that time, about 2.000 years before, the Earth was still very flat and the center of the "world"

Not yet 30 years old Nigerian/Zambian generals are as attractive/hunky to Thai ladies as is a 69 yeras old fat, violent and big-mouthed billionaire to the US electorate. They trust them re. him.

What's the difference concerning the IQ ???

Trump has already chewed up the 17 other Republicans. He's doing the same to Hillary right now. If David Cameron and his backwater little country think they have the slightest chance to emerge victorious in this power play, they had better look at the dog meat Trump has already left in his wake.

Being the biggest idi@t among 17 idi@s is a category ("powerplay") David Camewron will never win. Luckily

If you would like to (successfully) complain about the charged interests you should know if they are capped in your country by law.

Concerning the Visa- and Master-Cards, there are so many details to consider.

In Germany Master- and Visa-Cards are issued by the banks. The interest terms are defined by your card contract. The X-bank card doesn't have the same conditions as the Y-bank card. X-bank interests are different from Y-bank interests, in general.

In Germany the banks are not allowed to charge more than 12% since (July ?) last year.

So, if you want to complain about the high interst rate you should google if the bank in your countrty is allowed to charge such a high interest. If not, you will also find an address where to complain.

Complain to yourself if you made a contract with these interest conditions.

• There is the Nothern line - ROUTE 612 - over Pai

and the

• Sothern line - ROUTE 170 - over Mae Sariang

The Northern route (Pai) has many many bends, more than 1.800. Therefore ask your estomac if it will have problems or not.

The fare: I don't know exactly, maybe 300 or 350 THB by MINIBUS. The Minibuses start at 6:30 a.m. at an interval of 1 hour from Arcade Bus Station: Last bus: don't know.

Duration: 6- 6,5 hours including rests.

Buy your ticket in advance. Especially on weekends you'll have to waite many hours for the next available minibus if you didn't buy the ticket in advance.

The ordinary bus is cheaper, but I don't know the price and it takes more than 7 hours.Only one bus (or 2 ??) each day.

I'm not able to give you dretails about the Southern route.

You can bristle with indignation and PC as much as you like, they still consider you an "infidel" or "kaffir" and there is only one thing they want to do to infidels and kaffirs. One day you will be thankful for what is considered the "far right" for protecting you from yourself.

As they say, "Those who don't know history are bound to become liberals."

Considering your words I learnt now, G.W. Bush and Trump are liberals.

Only 2 examples for the braggarts:

"President George W. Bush was unaware that there were two major sects of Islam just two months before the President ordered troops to invade Iraq,"

"Donald Trump’s invocation of the mass removal and incarceration of 110,000 Japanese Americans–most U.S. citizens who never faced charges of wrongdoing–as a precedent to justify banning Muslims from entering the U.S. prompted outcry, not because we expect responsible rhetoric from the source, but because his remarks disclaim a long-standing orthodoxy about internment that it was, by the U.S. government’s own admission, an outcome of “race prejudice, war hysteria, and a failure of political leadership.”

And that's the difference between opend minded Londoners and the racist Rep electorate. They don't apply racism and prejudice, but adopt some sanity, are open minded.

Remember when the EURO was going to replace the US Dollar ? The quote was " All monetary units in the world will be tied to the new Euro replacing the US Dollar" At the start it was twice the value of the dollar but now the old Green Back is valued at 29 percent more.Any one want to buy any Saudi Rials ?

Did you use an an extraterrestrial math ?

Todays (Euro) VISA exchange rate is

100.00 Euro = 115.19 United States Dollar

1 Euro = 1.1519000000 United States Dollar

What about ISIL?

“Their days are numbered,” Trump said, “I won’t tell then when and I won’t tell them how.”

Despite the anti-muslim tone of his campaign to date, Trump pledged to work closely with US allies in the Middle East to combat extremism.

“Containing the spread of radical Islam must be a major foreign policy goal of the United States and indeed, the world,” he said.

What an uncredible simpleton !

Although the idea isn't bad, but how to solve this problem in reality? To fight religion or religious terrorists by weapons? This is only one example showing that he is completely incapable of fulfilling the required job. Reducing the public debt to zero within 8 years is onother one.,... and so on … and so on.

Old Russia failed to „eliminate“ the Taliban in Afghanistan (and Pakistan). The USA, too. The USA have been unable to stabilise the region in the ME after the disastrous and fabricated Iraq War.

And this silly boy would like to tempt fate resulting in the same disaster ?

Reminds me „GOP“ president G.W. Bush. Mr. Trump, Not only I, but the overwelming majority of the people in the civilised world, wish you: (presidental) mission accomplished, with the same result we all know.

I remember all the doom and gloom about NAFTA years ago. About how it would ruin XYZ country. In the end, most seem to think it was for the better. Some reports show very good results. A few point out the problems. Never easy to craft deals like this.

A quote I found here:

While NAFTA's overall financial impact has been generally positive, it has not lived up to the high expectations of its proponents. It has made many U.S. companies and investors rich - and their managements richer. But it has also cost many U.S. manufacturing workers their livelihoods while failing to raise living standards for most Mexicans.

I am afraid that anyone who thinks that leaving such binding, world changing treaties to politicians and their corporate sponsors will be positive for the general population is dangerously naive.

Only 2 examples out of many thousands that demonstrates the real "winners":

• "In Mexico 6 million small corn farmers lost their livelihoods to subsidized cheap corn from the United States. Where were they going to go?"
• Because the US Government didn't allow a Canadian company extending its oil pipeline through the US it mulled over suing the US Government.

Now you understand why the TTIP regulations are a top secret. The BIG MONEY starts to control the states/governments.

Surprised that the usual wingnuts aren't on here condemning the trade bill simply because Obama is for it. He is the devil, you know. Probably keeping their powder dry for the next...Madam President.

There are many reasons to be wary of TTIP - and none of them to do with Obama:

• Investors will be able to sue states
• Corporations will be invited to co-write new laws
• Big business has excessive influence on the secret negotiations for CETA and TTIP
• The negotiations are conducted in secret
• Workers’ rights and jobs are endangered
• Food quality standards and consumer protection could be weakened
• European countries would be falling under pressure to allow high-risk technologies such as fracking or GM technology
• CETA and TTIP will further increase inequalities
• Liberalisation and privatisation will become one-way streets

Google: (I guess you are a German)

But it may be a problem of money refering to a special report in German TV, many years ago.

NOW it's being reported that a big Trump rally in Chicago has been cancelled at the last minute. There are thousands of protesters there and the officials are afraid for security.

Why don't people just behave themselves?

.... because they have not yet been in the Trump-University

.........equipment set up to report in real time dust levels at five locations; Yupparaj Wittayalai School, Rajamangala University of Technology Lanna (Doisaket), Faculty of Science, Chiang Mai University, and Chiang Dao Hospital.

Very good idea.

But the old problem and question: are these locations representative for the city of CM?

You can solve this problem only, if you get down to the root of the problem.

the average Rep follower isn't blessed with the highest IQ.

And you are? Condescend much?

My IQ isn't subject of this thread. But you seem to confirm what I said about the Rep's (and Trump's) IQ: don't answer to the subject, but start the personal offence.

In my humble opinion Trump is not the problem, but his surprisingly high number of followers.

In a "civilized" country like GB, Canada, France, NL or Germany, such a dorky extremist would never get this high number of votes. But as already prouven in another TV-thread, the average Rep follower isn't blessed with the highest IQ. For this discovery you don't need a survey, but your brain. Only one example, the last US Rep president fabricated and started a war within his first period of presidency and got reelected. That means the majority of voters reeelcted him! Then think about the people who voted for him. Maybe think: why they voted for him? But that's another issue.

And now?

I must not repeat all these "friendly" adjectives donated to this airhead. The stubbornness of this Rep egomanic is shown by the OP. Result: he wins, he wins in the Rep area. And that reminds me of Iraq warrior Bush. To be elected as president you need the majority of the votes/delegates.

Can the world rely on the common sense of the US elecrorat? Let's hope so.

What a pity that all these torture promoters aren't themselves subject to such a procedure.

I would like to see Trump being waterboarded to hear about his tax "avoidance".

The same for all the unscrupulous rightwings here in the forum. After all ask him/them again about waterboarding and torture.

The longer Trump is in the headlines because of his screwed news, the more I think about a new specimen of mankind in parts of the US

• they must have one new gene on their DNA which is connected to violence, inhumane and cruel behaviour plus offence

• with a brain - if existing at all - slipping out of the head down below the belt or belly

• with a heart and common sense - the same as above

• who like rich men no matter what they are yapping

• who like egomaniacs, completely uncontrolled, biased in discussions, specially in TV

How to improve this?

Listen to Trump or read the comments of the VISA rightwings (if you are able to endure it).
