I suppose you were first in line to attack Harris for using word salads.

Here's an interesting fact for you. It's kept black Americans sourly amused for centuries. Miscegenation was very common in the years of slavery. Some of the offspring were so light-skinned they could be regarded as white. When you see a rally of white supremacists, some of the most hate-filled faces belong to people whose ancestors passed for white years ago, and they carry that awareness within themselves. Try reading the book " Black Like Me" by John Howard Griffin. It's a white man's journey into the Deep South of America during racial segregation. He disguised himself as a black man. Mock as much as you want, the fact remains racial hatred is still very alive in America.

Trump sold the message he would stop immigration, and lower living costs. Those were the principal concerns of voters. It remains to be seen if he can stop immigration. One thing for sure, his promise to lower living costs is utter BS. Imposing tariffs on imports is a sure-fire way to raise them. Brace yourselves, Americans. Inflation is coming to visit.

I mean Trump illegally retaining top secret documents, then showing them off to visitors at Mar-a-Lardo to feed his ego. Your worship of Trump fails to take into account every other country will regard him as a major security risk, who can't be trusted with any secrets. When Trump "cleans house", as you put it, he will be replacing experienced operatives with personal appointees who will only tell him what they think he wants to hear. The same structure that had Putin thinking the war in Ukraine would be over in a week. It does not surprise me that you and others on this thread lack the intelligence to understand the ramifications, in typical Trump fashion shooting the messenger instead.

I know many Americans are up themselves so far they risk disappearing.

75% of Americans are white. I very much doubt blacks were offended.

I am not surprised your attention span only stretches to three words.

I am guessing when Harris made Trump look stupid in the presidential debate, that actually rebounded against her in the minds of white voters.

Visited many times, work-related. Los Angeles, San Francisco, Denver, St. Louis, New Orleans, Houston, Dallas, New York, San Antonio, Pittsburgh, Chicago, Cleveland, Philadelphia, Atlantic City, Portland, Connecticut, Detroit, Honolulu. World's best at logistics. O'Hare airport is mind-blowing. Best food in New Orleans, with Cajun and Creole cuisine. Food served in excessive portions, no wonder many Americans are obese. Houston has the history of the skyscraper. Palpable racial hatred in the northern cities. I could go on for quite a while, IMO that's enough. Your turn.

Sorry, no. An interesting array of triviality. If you could tell me the difference in carrying capacity of the Pilbara and a Western Land Lease in NSW, I'd be impressed. Or knowing the difference between a kangaroo and a wallaby. I think you meant Steve Irwin. As for Indonesia, did you know it is actually 14,000 islands, with over 30 different tribal cultures and building methods? Or that when renting a house there, the landlord takes a year's rental in advance?

How many countries do you think will be sharing intelligence with the USA, after that happens?

Stated with your usual grace and charm.

The US is self-sufficient in energy, food and water. It imports most of its pharmaceuticals and plastics. It is not self-sufficient in manufacturing capacity, most of which has been exported overseas in the last 4 decades. Bringing it back is going to be a major cost exercise. Financial advisers recommend savings of at least three month's living expenses, to weather financial hiccups such as job loss or sickness. The average personal debt level in America is $22,000. America is on a razor's edge. Many don't know it.

They do on polling day.

Tell me what you know about Australia and Indonesia, then.

Run a poll of non-Americans, then.

Really. If the rest of the world decided to call in US debt, America would be up <deleted> creek in a barbed wire canoe, without a paddle.

IME many foreigners know a lot more about America, than the average American knows about the rest of the world.

Can your sarcasm get any more childish?

Which program is that? Project 2025?

I believe concession speeches are made after the 270 Electoral College vote threshold has been achieved.

Trump's entire business empire is built on debt. He also has about 7 business bankruptcies behind him. Do you really think he is the one to sort US debt? Maybe Musk can, but at what cost? I feel sorry for the people who voted for Trump in the belief their lives will get better. If he doesn't cut their Social Security checks outright, the purchasing power will be eroded by the tariffs on Chinese goods.

I was wondering when a thread for bigots would come along......

"If they know what is good for them". That works both ways.

Actually, I don't think I ever said Kamala would win. Please post one of my posts where i said that. As far as Roman history goes, Si tacuisses, philosophus mansisses.
