Stop the war, in Ukraine? Sure! By letting Russia overtaking it! Remember: "Within weeks, Trump praised Putin for how he handled the takeover of Crimea and predicted that “the rest of Ukraine will fall … fairly quickly.” Echoing Kremlin propaganda, Trump said in a TV interview that the Crimean people “would rather be with Russia,” a position he also pushed in private. One of his 2016 campaign aides falsely claimed that “Russia did not seize Crimea.” https://edition.cnn.com/2022/03/26/politics/trump-putin-ukraine/index.html Stop the war in Gaza? Like he did with his so-called peace initiatives negotiated without involving the Palestinian Authority and Iran. What could have gone wrong? 😃

For once, I agree with him! If there is a crash, it is better it happens when he is not President, as he is unable to face a major crisis without being self-centered, childish, liar and ridiculous!" We know what to expect from him: this is not a crisis! It's a Dem hoax! Inject bleach in the economy! 😃

New year, new state laws: From minimum wage to gender-affirming care

Deflection. The employment rate of foreigners contradicts the claim that they are an economic burden. Feel free to make realistic suggestions about how to increase the employment rate of natives -

candide replied to CharlieH's topic in World News
My point is that foreigners (both EU and non EU in my post) have a higher employment rate than UK born, which means that, by paying taxes and national insurance contributions, they contribute proportionally more to the NHS than UK born. -
Lol! The pandemic really started in March 2020. So you are comparing less than one year under Trump's mandate, to nearly 3 years under Biden's mandate You are also forgetting that 2/3 of deaths after the vaccine was introduced were Republicans, because they listened to right-wing anti-vaccine nutters.

Of all people aged 16 years and over, 55.9% of those born in the UK were in employment, compared with 70.8% of those born in the EU and 58.0% among those born in non-EU countries; restricting to those aged 16 to 64 years, 71.2% of those born in the UK were in employment, compared with 78.2% of those born in the EU and 64.9% of those born in non-EU countries. https://www.ons.gov.uk/employmentandlabourmarket/peopleinwork/employmentandemployeetypes/articles/migrationandthelabourmarketenglandandwales/census2021 -

Biden slams Trump for Capitol riot in 2024 campaign speech
candide replied to CharlieH's topic in World News
More details uncovered.... After unsuccessfully trying for up to 20 minutes to persuade Trump to release some sort of calming statement, Scavino and others walked out of the dining room, leaving Trump alone, sources said. That's when, according to sources, Trump posted a message on his Twitter account saying that Pence "didn't have the courage to do what should have been done." Special counsel probe uncovers new details about Trump's inaction on Jan. 6: Sources https://www.yahoo.com/news/special-counsel-probe-uncovers-details-130200050.html -

In the Wisconsin case, there is no proof of election rigging, just that a method used at the time of Covid has been ultimately assessed as not following the law. Wake us up when fraud indictment will be announced. As to your request to Danderman, you are asking him to prove a negative. It's not how it works! It's your duty to prove the allegations are true, not the opposite. None of this so-called evidence has been submitted, accepted, or proven accurate in courts, or confirmed by the multiple audits and recounts. Edit. The author did not even dare to sign the document! -
The beauty of U.S. politics is that 'Trump stinks' may well end up being quite effective against him! 😃

Supreme Court to rule if Trump can run for president
candide replied to CharlieH's topic in World News
The SCOTUS will make its decision, and unlike the right-wing, liberals will not whine endlessly about a Justice decision. Actually, I guess that a significant number won't be unhappy to have Trump on the ballot, as he's likely easier to beat than others, such as Haley. -

So when Hunter, a private citizen, got $1 Million from a private Chinese energy company, he got moneyfrom enemies of the nation (a popular MAGA talking point). But when Trump (while was President and in charge of foreign policy) got $5.4 Million from a bank controlled by the CCP, It's not from enemies of the nation! 🤣 Forbes Estimates China Paid Trump At Least $5.4 Million Since He Took Office, Via Mysterious Trump Tower Lease https://www.forbes.com/sites/danalexander/2020/10/23/forbes-estimates-china-paid-trump-at-least-54-million-since-he-took-office-via-mysterious-trump-tower-lease/?sh=e8f0820ed11e -

No reply, of course..... Same link already posted before! My mistake, it was 46% https://dcist.com/story/16/12/28/poll/ Another interesting point in this poll, is that more than twice Republicans than Democrats think the 2016 elections have been rigged! The reason being that Trump was furious that he lost the popular vote and claimed millions of illegal votes had been casted! 😅 -

For what? For trying to prevent the diffusion of misleading rumours about Covid, It may not have been technically legal, but it has nothing to do with being a threat to democracy. Sorry to deceive you but, unlike Trump and his sycophants, Biden never tried to steal elections, and never threatened judges, prosecutors, witnesses, civil servants, etc... -

I know there were also right-wing sites with the same content. Inusually prefer to cite the original one rather than the followers. BTW, it's quite instructing to observe that the (far) right wing sites and the Pravda have the same (or similar) content -

One question. How would you call the 41% of Republicans who believed the pizzagate conspiracy theory. You know, the conspiracy in which Dem politicians (among others) where raping kids, and then killing them to drink their blood and remain young. In the basement of a pizzeria which has no basement? -

Oh the irony! 🤣 Trump and a certain number of Republicans did not try to ban Biden, they just tried to steal elections and prevent the certification of the victory of the legitimate election winner!🤣 The only reason the Republicans are not trying to ban Biden is that they have no ground for it. They would dream to ban him or to indict him, but their problem is that Biden did not do what Trump did! Instead, they have launched a smear campaign and a fake impeachment in the absence of any evidence! They don't even know for which crime they would impeach him! 😃 -
U.S. National Debt Skyrockets to Unprecedented $34 Trillion!
candide replied to CharlieH's topic in World News
Of course, Covid has a lot to do with it. My point is that the current high level of the debt ratio started during the period before Biden became President. It only incrementally increased after that. As to the post-Covid period, one reason the economy has been roaring was that it has been fuelled by expenses and investment aiming to put the economy back on track. The very good U.S. GDP growth (relative to other G7 countries) was not reached for no reason. Less debt would have resulted in lower GDP (and less jobs) and the debt/GDP ratio would not have been better. https://commonslibrary.parliament.uk/research-briefings/sn02784/ -
