  1. It matters that he lies. And it matters that he often has no idea where he is. His latest trashing of Detroit while in Detroit speaking to the people of Detroit being just one example.
  2. Good to see an American supporter of America’s enemies getting the justice he deserves. More please.
  3. We should perhaps have a thread on that.
  4. I don’t find anything funny about Hamas.
  5. I did, but I read the OP first. Hamas don’t get a mention until your hair trigger goes off.
  6. A registered Republican even: https://www.usatoday.com/story/news/politics/elections/2024/10/13/what-we-know-vem-miller-trump/75663970007/
  7. Oh, it was the ‘U.S. Left’ storming the Capitol on J6. Who knew?!
  8. Taylor Swift helps people in need and triggers the usual suspects to. It’s known as a win win.
  9. There is no prohibition stating how much American expats are ‘allowed’ to earn. Your poor expat earning $150,000 already has a $120,000 tax free allowance, so might have to pay tax on 1/5th of their income, assuming they do not take advantage of numerous other avail tax reductions, such as health savings plans etc.
  10. That’s a rather twisted interpretation of my comments. My argument is precisely that this suggested tax giveaway is targeted in favor of the hyper wealthy. The vast majority of Americans expats already have a generous zero tax bracket. https://www.irs.gov/individuals/international-taxpayers/foreign-earned-income-exclusion#:~:text=However%2C you may qualify to,deduct certain foreign housing amounts.
  11. No, I mean he might be doing it to help out the already hyper wealthy.
  12. It’s always somebody else’s fault and of course, hope springs eternal. As I have said many times, Trump would have been better focusing on Prison reform.
  13. It’s a very odd election promise to be making in the last month of the campaign. It doesn’t bring in any votes from the expat voters who have already submitted their vote and it’s too late, in many states, to encourage expat citizens who have not already applied for their absentee ballot. What’s even odder is, postal voting has been the subject of long standing attacks from Trump and not a means of voting favored by his citizen supporters. Moreover, expat U.S. Citizens already enjoy a generous fixed amount tax allowance and there is lies a clue to why Trump might think this a good idea. A zero tax rate for expatriate Americans would be a huge gift to those hyper wealthy Americans living overseas.
  14. Increasing the debt to invest in infrastructure (Capital expenditure) makes sound economic sense. Increasing the debt to cut taxes does not.
  15. Perhaps you should admit your error and acknowledge there was not peace in the region under Trump. Just admit you were wrong, it won’t hurt.
  16. Again, forgive me for pointing out your blatantly false statement.
  17. As we know there was a war in Syria during Trump’s time in office. So no there wasn’t peace in the region under Trump. Forgive me for pointing out your blatantly false statement.
  18. Calm down it’s only a Toblerone.
  19. Coordinated rioting, looting and arson presenting threat to public order in communities across the UK? Thought not.
  20. You’re not following the need then? https://news.sky.com/story/met-police-arrest-17-protesters-during-demonstrations-over-middle-east-conflict-13228452
  21. Lists names are not evidence of the Biden Administration’s policies, negotiations and efforts to have the people on the lists returned to the U.S. What you need to produce is confirmed statements or documents to back the assertion you made. Here are some examples of links confirming the Biden Administration’s commitment and achievements wrt negotiating the release of Americans, and others, held in Russia: “Today, we celebrate the return of Paul, Evan, Alsu, and Vladimir and rejoice with their families. We remember all those still wrongfully detained or held hostage around the world. And reaffirm our pledge to their families: We see you. We are with you. And we will never stop working to bring your loved ones home where they belong.” https://www.state.gov/release-of-wrongfully-detained-americans-and-russian-political-prisoners/#:~:text=Through the extraordinary efforts of,others held prisoner inside Russia. https://ru.usembassy.gov/statement-by-president-joe-biden-on-securing-the-release-of-americans-detained-in-russia/
