candide

And MAGA fans were doing exactly the same when Biden was leading Trump in previous polls! 😅

A 2021 PNAS study by political scientists at Stanford University and the University of Chicago rebutted Lott's paper as being not even remotely convincing, writing that his analysis was "entirely dependent on the completely arbitrary order in which pairs of precincts in other counties are entered in the dataset" and that his conclusions about voter fraud were "utterly baseless."[72][73][74] https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/John_Lott Anyway, come back when you have proof of the ridiculous conspiracy theories that Biden has not been fairly elected! . BTW, don't truncate my posts to change their meaning

Interesting. So around 15% of respondents both think that Trump will behave like a dictator and that Democrats are unfairly trying to scare voters about it. 😊

It's technically fraud, however it does not mean that Biden has not been fairly elected as you falsely claimed. - most of them did it for convenience, not with fraudulent intent. If you fill in a ballot for your wife with her agreement, It's not really fraud, - there is a higher percentage of Republican voters than Democrats who did it. So following your own reasoning, the so-called fraud actually benefited Trump, not Biden. As usual, you are picking and distorting facts. As Barr did phrase it, the conspiracy theory that Biden has been fraudulently elected and that Trump actually won is "bull<deleted>"!

The same dishonest argument again! As it has been already mentioned to you: - they did it for a friend or family member, - more of them were Republicans than Democrats. Posting the same B.S. over and over will not make it true! 🤣

Complete B.S. You obviously haVen't read the survey report.

It's not exactly how it works. Zero dollar tours are sold at a very cheap price (maybe below cost), and they make a profit bringing Chinese tourists to jewelry shops, shows, etc.. (likely over priced) as they get a cut of their expenses. On top of it, these tour operators still have to pay for accommodation, transportation, food, etc...for their customers in Thailand. It's like saying that, if you book a tour from a tour operator in Farangland, the money doesn't go to Thailand. The fact that their network in Thailand is mainly Chinese-own is irrelevant, as the money is still spent in Thailand and flows into the economy. Moreover, Chinese businesses usually want to keep money out of reach from the CCP, so my guess is that very little of the money spent in Thailand goes back to China.

Actually, devaluation tends to increase inflation, at least on short-term. Imported goods are more expensive. Local production can be sold at a higher price abroad, which also leads to price increases on the domestic market. Not sure how it may evolve on middle-term.

Meanwhile... Trump quotes Putin in bid to portray Biden as authoritarian https://www.politico.com/news/2023/12/16/trump-quotes-putin-in-bid-to-portray-biden-as-authoritarian-00132157

I don't know about the dream, but the American nightmare ended in November 2020!

So will Trump help him or will Giuliani snitch? That's how it works with them!

So are most businesses which are going on recruiting employees and investing.

Ok, but it's still necessary to get 251 votes and MF is not able to get them unless it joins with PT. BTW I am not against MF at all.

Numbers are what they are. Poll number are currently showing an advantage for Trump in term of perceptions. I don't deny it . How it allows to anticipate on elections results is another story. The numbers I mentioned (GDP growth, etc...) are facts. They are not based on perceptions.

Keep this argument for when Trump's fan will repost it on this board!

The fact that you've been ripped off is not really an argument! 😃

What a coincidence! Life was better pre-covid in most countries! Could it be that there is something like global inflation and global energy prices? As countries are subject to the same global trends, the only way to assess performance is to compare between comparable countries. Well, Let's compare the current inflation with 2019, the last 'normal' year under Trump before the pandemic started.. USA currently -0,5% compared to the average of advanced economies, + 0.4% In 2019. 2023 United States 4.1 Advanced economies 4.6 World 6.9 2019 Advanced economies 1.4 World 3.5 United States 1.8

It's possible. However, under current seats distribution, There's no possible coalition without at least MF or PT in it, and MF is seen as too critical of what you know to attract allies. Practically, the only option is a coalition with PT. It may ally again with MF, but it is highly likely that Thaksin's pardon has strings attached. After the recent debacle, it is also unlikely that parties linked to the former Junta in one way or another, would be eager to take the risk of triggering anticipated elections.

Not really, as MF has only 151 seats/500.

It summarises it well “What’s amazing to me is that you’ve got an overwhelming number of people in their caucus who voted against impeaching Donald Trump for inciting a violent insurrection against our own House, against the Congress, against the vice president,” Raskin told MSNBC’s Jen Psaki on Thursday. He added, “Now, they want to go ahead and launch an impeachment inquiry against Joe Biden for a crime unknown. No one can identify what the alleged offense is.” https://www.yahoo.com/news/jamie-raskin-nails-house-gop-170614606.html

Well, we will keep at least a few good memories of him! 😆 https://www.nbcnews.com/politics/donald-trump/rudy-giuliani-caught-compromising-position-new-borat-film-n1244187

And he's even able to create more inflation abroad than in the US. 😅 United States 4.1 Advanced economies 4.6 World 6.9 https://www.imf.org/external/datamapper/PCPIPCH@WEO/USA/ADVEC/WEOWORLD

Total failed presidency!😅 - record GDP growth among G7 countries, - unemployment rate close to historic low, - all time high Dow Jones level, - highest level of energy independence over 70 years, - now lower inflation that the average of advanced economies. - increased industrial sovereignty in strategic sectors such as semi-conductors, EV, or green energy. A total failure! 😆

Meanwhile....Trump rages! 😅 “Now they’re saying, ‘Let’s rush it to the Supreme– we gotta rush it, rush it, rush it,” Trump complained at a rally in Iowa on Wednesday. “They could have started three years ago. Everything– nothing changed. They could have started three years ago, but they didn’t. They started just recently with this crap.” Trump claimed that “they’re fighting like hell because they want to try and get a guilty plea from the Supreme Court,” https://www.yahoo.com/news/very-sick-thing-trump-rages-140403763.html

Ooops! My mistake!
