Lol,,,I’ve been thinking about the Democrats calling to abolish the Electoral College system and what a shock it would be to them if they still lost under a national popular majority takes all, which I think is possible.
My logic is that I believe Democrats are already highly motivated to vote in blue or red states and therefore we’ve seen their near their top line turnout numbers,,about three million more than republicans last election.
The theory is if it was a popular vote disenfranchised republicans from traditional blue states would turn up in large numbers as well as red states who usual don’t vote knowing their neighbors will carry the day.
Just an exercise in watching out for what you wish for.

The modern mainstream press are nothing but corporate shills echoing and amplifying the biases of their owners and editorial boards. As entities (not dissing individual journos with integrity) they are not journalism but providers of cover and propaganda. Consume with caution!!
Looking forward to the 11/09/2020 headline that asks “Did Congressional Democrats and the Main Stream Media collude to hand Donald Trump his re-election?”- 4

The House committee is not asking Trump to release his tax returns. They're requesting it from the IRS. Doesn't matter what Trump wants.
IRS overseen by Mnuchin will not comply resulting in another “Orangeman Bad Vs. Angry Democrats” case on the docket.- 2

There’s also no legal requirements for him to release his tax returns. Privacy protected just like every American. Only a sucker gives more information than is legally required.

Being the fiscal conservative (insert cheap Charlie) he is I’d bet his last line was the real driver,, the price was right. Which really just confirms our system is overpriced.

OK, tell us this, if American healthcare is so great why is Republican Senator Rand Paul going to Canada for an operation? Plus he is a doctor.
https://www.cnn.com/2019/01/15/politics/rand-paul-canada-surgery/index.html
You could have dug a little deeper,,
I’ll let him tell you,,,
Kentucky Sen. Rand Paul said he made the ultimate capitalist decision by choosing to go to Canada instead of the United States for hernia surgery.
"I looked for a place that did primarily that type of surgery. A place that actually accepts Americans who pay cash," Paul said in an interview with Wave 3 News in Washington, D.C.. "It's a private hospital. The funny thing is, people had an agenda that wanted to attack me said, 'Oh, you're going to choose socialized medicine.' I'm actually choosing capitalistic medicine because they only take cash from foreigners."
"We have some centers like this," Paul said. "Oklahoma has a center like this but doesn't specialize in the surgery I need. I chose (Shouldice) because they are good at it and actually the price is right."

If socialized medicine, universal healthcare or Medicaid/Medicare for all (call it what you will) is so great why is Mick Jagger having heart surgery in NYC, USA?
He’s from England right? Is their queue too long? Is the expertise in the USA superior? Does he just want an authentic slice of ny pizza before he goes under the knife?

The article title states “over experts advise”.
By definition advise is a suggestion and therefore I conclude it’s “up to Trump”.- 2

I see your need for a change but you definitely sucked all the calories and fun out of that meal. Maybe one of those dishes at a time with the rice and pork, lol.
My wife’s been to the USA enough times and can tolerate a little of “my food”. So now I make spaghetti with vegetables and meat sauces, grilled tuna or ham and cheese sandwiches with soup, chef salad with bottled dressings, omelettes with ham and vegetables, pancakes or crepes, multigrain cereal with toast and yogurt, macaroni and cheese, mashed potatoes with gravy, potato salad, grilled shrimp etc.
I know these aren’t the lowest calorie foods but I need the calories and variety. She’s just happy not to cook and blames “my food” (once a week or so) when the scale tips to the right!
Just some easy ideas, don’t give up.- 1

I’m guessing the pickup saw the bike in plenty of time to avoid them and maintained high speed too long thinking the bike would go to the outside lane. He wasn’t prepared to stop when they settled into his lane.

I offered my Issan wife’s aversion to Thaksin and any adjacent parties with some of her reasonings against Britman’s claim that Thaksin gets every vote up here.
Nothing more or less really I was just offering insight to her opinion which counts as a vote unlike expats like us on here who only have opinions.

He's the leader of the Laos ethnic Thai majority, he doesn't need to be anything else to get every one of their votes in every election.
Never getting my Issan born wife’s vote. She’s loyal to the King. She tells me Thaksin questioned if the continuation of the royals was best for Thailand and for that he and his party are eternally in the penalty box.
She was in Bangkok in 2013/2014 and felt unsafe. She feels the police did and do nothing to help the people unlike the Kings Army who respond to disasters, emergency’s and corruption when called upon.
She’s okay with Prayut, “nobody’s perfect, he do good”
I’m no expert but she makes a good case from her perspective.- 1

“and the financial returns for the AOT from the two contractsmust be no less than those it receives under the current single operator concession.”
That’s curious. Are they talking about a percentage of sales/income commitment or AOT’s net income which would be a constant variable for the vendor.

She looks a bit more "interesting" without all the photo manipulation/smoothing/enhancement:
Despite being “banged up abroad for a week” she doesn’t look overly used. -
“,,,without fear.” (other than declaring now!)

Yep something going on, police never use to come to my house to check passport before.
2 year ago 1 visit from tourist police.
Last year 1 visit local police 1 more by tourist police.
This year 1 visit from tourist police, 1 visit local police, 1 visit Immigration police with local police.
I guess it's Joker, Batman where are you. [emoji41]
Maybe you’re their “go to good guy” in the area now. They can pop in to your place to appease the jokers mandate and know you’ll be in compliance. Then they can report back everything is in order in their sector, no bad guys here and return to playing on their phones in the air conditioned barracks.- 1

So many experts to declare the cause of the accident as if they witnessed it and were trained in accident investigation. Amazing.
Nope just high probability predictions based on repetitive pattern recognition.- 8

He kind of blew it as she was okay with working seven days a week to pay all the bills, him being a liar and a fraud while beating her yet only working a few hours a day (if he felt like it) “but it was the unreasonable sex demands that caused the break-up in the end, she claimed.”
He coulda just had a mai noi for the freaky stuff.- 1

I figure he swerved while tailgating to avoid being the first one injured when crashing into the back of the truck and injured his passengers instead,,well done.

Yes your opening story that you fell off because of the condition of the road while later admitting you were a bit drunk is pretty absurd. Just let them keep the bike it’ll be cheaper and safer for everyone.
