  1. 1. People who smoke weed tend to drink less alcohol, so there are obvious side benefits. 2. There is a real and more dangerous issue in Thailand with synthetic drugs (most of all Yaba, but also others such as Fentanyl, Ketamin, etc...). It's inefficient for authorities to lose time on weed. Attention must be focused on synthetic drugs, not only to fight against traffic, but also to provide rehab solutions to drug addicts (instead of just putting them in jail).
  2. Now even Comer de facto admits it was just a smear campaign against Biden... Comer insists his job was ‘never to impeach’ as GOP doubts grow about Biden impeachment vote https://www.yahoo.com/news/comer-insists-job-never-impeach-160025134.html
  3. The % of Democrats is not as low as the % of Republicans.....
  4. Did you also enjoy the pathetic sore loser getting mad after the 2020 elections, and ridiculously claiming that he actually won? 😆
  5. Unlike you, I do not build opinions on what politicians claim. The economic numbers are there and don't lie. It's true that these numbers are currently not perceived was such by public opinion. Then it's rather simple. Either public opinion becomes more aware of economic performance indicators, and the Dems will likely win, or it doesn't and they will likely lose elections.
  6. I don't know if they will react like that, but at least they will not whine about massive fraud and stolen elections B.S. and will not storm the Capitol! 😆
  7. Failed policies? 😃 The U.S has the best economic performance among G7 countries!
  8. Remember why MFP became kryptonite to all other parties. The only thing Thaksin has to do (and has done so far) is to make sure a particular institution is not challenged.
  9. On top of it, Dominion machines which were not connected. And the pizzeria cited in the conspiracy theory has no basement! 😅 Dumber than dumb!
  10. “What Trump said was so damaging to him”: Experts say NY AG “struck gold” with Trump court rant https://www.yahoo.com/news/trump-said-damaging-him-experts-140808805.html
  11. 56 percent in new poll willing to see Trump disqualified from ballots in all or some states https://www.yahoo.com/news/56-percent-poll-willing-see-173551420.html
  12. Well, it didn't really work this way last time. Contrary to Trump's initial claim, the cost of tax cuts was not compensated by enough extra growth and tax revenues (nor did the Bush tax cuts). Actually, low tax policies only work for small countries. You could have added: not to companies which used tax cuts to buy back their shares in order to increase the value of stock options, but there wouldn't be much companies left.
  13. It's better with the title: Donald Trump says he’ll attend E. Jean Carroll trial next week: “I’m gonna explain, I don’t know who the hell she is.” 😃
  14. (Sore looser) whiners whine! I DID NOTHING WRONG!!!” 😅 https://www.yahoo.com/news/trump-melts-down-truth-social-152058209.html
  15. It's a bit difficult to get a clear overview of Trump's scams because there are so many of them. Even the NYPost reported about some of them recently! 😃 Donald Trump bluffed his way out of bankruptcy in the 90s — will this come back to haunt him during NY fraud trial? https://nypost.com/2024/01/11/news/how-donald-trump-bluffed-his-way-out-of-bankruptcy-in-the-90s/
  16. Trump said It's because the U.K. was doing a very good job controlling the virus! 🤣 Trump critics also said that it was because Trump had properties in UK.
  17. I mentioned them because they were mentioned at that time in the MAGA propaganda, I.e. by Trump. So who were the mysterious "top" democrats who criticized the China travel within hours after Trump's decision? It wasn't Biden, it wasn't Pelosi, it wasn't Sanders (according the Fox News link it was something he said in March, and it was a general comment).
  18. Something quite interesting surfaced recently. Jan. 6 Rally Organizers Lied About Plan to March to the Capitol, Report Finds Women for America First, which planned the rally on the Ellipse, knew of President Donald J. Trump’s plans to have his supporters march to the Capitol but repeatedly denied it to federal permitting officials. https://www.nytimes.com/2023/12/18/us/politics/jan-6-capitol-rally-report.html A White House liaison to the rally organizers sent a text message on Jan. 3 to Women for America First regarding a demonstration at the Ellipse. “POTUS expectations are intimate and then send everyone over to the Capitol,” the message said, according to the report. Katrina Pierson, a Trump spokeswoman, had sent an email on Jan. 2, 2021, with nearly identical language. ....... On Jan. 4, Kylie Jane Kremer wrote in a text message: “POTUS is going to have us march there/the Capitol.” She added: “It can also not get out about the march because I will be in trouble with the National Park Service and all the agencies, but POTUS is going to just call for it ‘unexpectedly.’”
  19. B.S.! The Dems were calling Trump xenophobic because of the so-called Muslim ban", not the China travel ban! Please show us a quote of Biden or Pelosi criticizing the China ban! https://thehill.com/homenews/house/480991-pelosi-trumps-expanded-travel-ban-is-outrageous-un-american-and-threatens-rule/ https://dc.medill.northwestern.edu/blog/2020/02/04/trumps-travel-ban-is-islamophobic-and-xenophobic-civil-rights-groups-say/#sthash.g2NdtjBA.dpbs P.S. Trump may have done the right thing, but not fully as he let American citizen from China in without check (I guess in his simple min, only Chinese could be infected). He also spared UK from travel bans, and that's how the virus was introduced on the East coast (ill-intentioned people said it was because of his properties in UK -who could believe that?)
  20. They won't be going after Biden the same way because (I anticipate) he won't try to overturn legitimate elections. As to your false equivalence, a President is only protected when it falls under his presidential duties (for example a policy decision) Please explain us how how asking to "find 11,000 votes", plotting a fake electors scheme, and watching the assault of the Capitol on TV while doing nothing against it, fall under his presidential duties.
