  1. Actually It's the judge's daughter who worked for Kamala! ????
  2. Trump is responsible for a nonsensical agreement, and a failed preparation of the withdrawal. What makes you think he may have been able to properly manage the withdrawal?
  3. So what's your evidence that swing voters are among the 23% who think he did nothing wrong? I would tend to think they are all Republican. About the age issue, I don't disagree with you, but It's out of topic.
  4. Really? Only 23% think he did nothing wrong! When asked about the criminal probe, 46% said they think Trump has done something illegal. About 29% of Americans believe it was unethical, but not illegal, while 23% don't think he did anything wrong. https://news.yahoo.com/six-10-americans-dont-want-133502391.html
  5. You are confusing what Comer says with the truth.... "She repeatedly explained that she was unaware that there were alleged classified documents at the Penn Biden Center until November 2022, when the documents were first discovered by counsel for President Biden." https://www.foxnews.com/politics/rep-comer-claims-testimony-bidens-former-assistant-on-classified-docs-undermines-white-house-narrative
  6. No need to look at other countries. The current government has already been giving welfare cards, etc... "Deputy PM and Palang Pracharath Party (PPRP) leader Prawit Wongsuwon has vowed to raise the monthly state welfare payment to 700 baht and says he is ready to be prime minister if his party returns to government after the next election." https://www.nationthailand.com/thailand/politics/40024112
  7. I am not arguing that fuel price does not influence food price, just recalling that the market has a significant global component. Whatever the cause (fuel price being an influential factor), prices changes will be similar in countries with an open economy.
  8. Another explanation for the similarity of food price changes in different countries, is simply that the markets and prices of agricultural commodities (wheat, sugar, orange juice, etc...) are global.
  9. Right! It doesn't take 2 years to inspect the content of a laptop! Oh wait! Only the NYPost got a copy! ????
  10. Charge #35, you have a d$(& looking like a toadstool! "Not guilty, your honour!" ????
  11. Booksb are peanuts compared to what kids can access on the internet.
  12. Trumps wins in defamation cases also confirm that the justice system is not biased against Trump, contrary to what he and his supporters are claiming.
  13. Priceless! ???? https://news.yahoo.com/trump-arraigned-manhattan-alleged-hush-110056179.html
  14. Well, at least he is admitting it. He is likely not the only poster on this forum. There are several other posters whom I have never seen admitting elections were not rigged. At best, they wrote that Trump should have let it down, without mentioning he was lying.
  15. Are you kidding? 2019-2014= 5 years. They (Prayuth was asked to make a coup, he did not decide it by himself) imposed 5 years of autocracy before elections. On top of it, the constitution they made was de facto giving the Senate (appointed by the army and the old elite) the power to chose the PM. It's still the case for the next elections. The opposition needs 375 MPs/500 to govern (provided elections are not rigged). I forgot another reason, which was, the succession, and that's why prayuth had been appointed army chief in 2010 "The pro-Abhisit establishment and the powers that be are hunkering down for the long haul and Prayuth is their man. He could be in power for another four years – crucial in Thai politics because of the road towards the succession. The confrontation between the Reds and the Yellows is going to continue." https://www.dw.com/en/thailands-new-army-chief-takes-office/a-6066746
  16. Are you really buying this fairy tale? There was no brink of civil war. Suthep's mob was spreading thin as money was getting short. He failed. Yingluck was already ousted by the judiciary and the government was already in caretaker mode since January. New elections were scheduled by the EC for July. That was the objective of the coup: prevent the Thai people from electing a government. The protest coup failed, the judicial coup failed (they had no ground to oust the whole government), so the only way to avoid elections was a military coup.
  17. This has been debunked, same as the other irregularities you did not have time to gather.
  18. You should read the news more carefully. It's Musk having a tantrum, not the NYT
  19. He was convicted for obstructing an official proceeding. Isn't it what he did?
