  1. I'll help you. Here's the full transcript. What critical parts have been edited out and most of all how did it alter the meaning of what Trump said, according to you? Of course, in the clip, they cannot keep the whole interview, so they have selected only a part of it. So what are the parts they left out to alter the meaning of what Trump said, and how editing them out may have altered the meaning of what Trump said about this particular issue? https://www.nbcnews.com/politics/trump-administration/read-full-transcript-president-donald-trump-interviewed-meet-press-mod-rcna203514
  2. They should have assaulted the Capitol in an attempt to steal the election! They would have been pardoned...🙂
  3. It's not the only (and main) explanation. There were also issues of higher cost for banks, lack of choice for bank customers, and regulatory supervision. Here's the Politico article cited by the Spectator as source. https://www.politico.eu/article/france-helped-britain-keep-euro-clearing-london-brexit/ Interestingly enough, the current policy is set to expire in June 2025, which may partially explain Starmer's alacrity.
  4. It's still incoherent as RW media also did not talk about these injuries before the publication of the IG report, while they have been extensively reporting about Biden's decline for years. 🤣
  5. 7 May 2025. You should read the thread before posting. Impulse's and other MAGA posters' claim was that MSM knew about the number of injuries before the publication of the report and covered it up, in order to help Biden to win the election! 🤣
  6. RW media such as Fox News, the NYPost or Breitbart did not talk about the number of injured people. So according to your claim, they were covering it up to try and help Biden defeat Trump? That's incoherent! 🤣
  7. Same reply. The RW media: Fox News, NYPost, Breitbart, etc... did not publish it either. Were they also uncurious? 🤣
  8. More incoherence. The RW media: Fox News, NYPost, Breitbart, etc... did not publish it either. Were they also uncurious? 🤣
  9. Did what? I may have misunderstood your claim, so please tell us what you meant by "Biden did" Did what exactly?
  10. Blah blah! How could MSM have reported about an information which was not available? It's incoherent! 🙂
  11. And as usual, you have nothing to support this lame debunked claim! 🤣
  12. Another baseless allegation against MSM. The IG report was published only 4 days ago, so this number was not known by MSM. 🤣
  13. As expected, MAGAs whining and blaming others. 🙂
  14. MAGAs reading books and philosophers' essays? 😆
  15. How do they dare showing that Trump's decisions are completely incoherent! 🤣
  16. The Big Lie. 🤣 You know, the case Fox News settled by paying $787.5 million and by acknowledging that the broadcast statements were false.
  17. She just comes to get her check once a month!
  18. Actually, had Hitler not been stupid enough to invade the USSR, it is likely that Stalin would have been quite happy to share the domination of European countries with Hitler, as they did in Poland.
  19. I initially wondered how Bhumjaithai could have managed to get so many Senators from an selection process well controlled by the yellow-green network (they are certainly not the only ones who could be corrupt, so it cannot be the main reason). The explanation I got is that, as the ex-Junta's parties were too discredited, the yellow-green network switched to Bhumjaithai as the main party to defend its interests. If true, they shouldn't be too annoyed by courts. But then it also depends in which direction stratospheric winds are blowing.... It should be remembered that the Organic Act on the Installation of Senators does not prohibit vote swapping since the Senate election system requires the candidates to vote among themselves and encouraging other candidates to vote reciprocally is not considered illegal. Instead, the election system is inherently designed for vote swapping among the candidates. So it needs to be proven in court that those votes were made in exchange for a benefit (ex. Money or position). Another important issue is what happens if they are convicted. Replace them by BJT people on the reserve list, or nullify the whole election? If they are just replaced, it would be a good compromise for BJT, allowing to officially dislodge corruption, while keeping BJT's influence intact. It would be coherent with Anutin distancing himself from the 60 Senators (actually, he may get rid of competitors, so it may be beneficial for him)
  20. Exactly. It's better to let Trump talk his usual B.S. and discredit himself! 🤣 For example: “We don’t do much business with Canada from our standpoint. They do a lot of business with us. We’re at like 4%,” Trump said. That “4%” figure is wrong. Official US data shows that Canada bought about 17% of US goods exports... .....Trump also repeated his frequent claim that the US is “subsidizing Canada to the tune of maybe $200 billion per year.”......Official US statistics show the 2024 deficit with Canada in goods and services trade was about $36 billion. Fact check: Trump claimed the US doesn’t do ‘much business with Canada.’ Canada is the world’s top buyer of US exports https://www.cnn.com/2025/05/06/politics/fact-check-trump-mark-carney-imports
  21. The timing about the India deal is quite obvious. If they signed a deal first with the UK, it means there is nothing in it which can be used by the EU to get more concessions. Otherwise it would be easy for EU representatives to argue that if India granted a benefit to the smaller UK, they must also grant it to the EU (India's largest export market). So it can be assumed that it won't be better than the deal between India and the EU. At best, it may be as good.
  22. Not an extensive one. Of very limited scope and maintaining 10% tariffs on UK imports (which is better than 25%, of course). Not comparable to the deal with India, for example.
  23. Right, only around 80%. And not particularly better than the deals made by the EU with the same countries (ex. Japan).
