You don't know who is reading the posts. For all you know, there is someone on ASEAN staff who is sending a weekly report to the Thai government, detailing what the farangs are talking about.

I keep my nose out of Thai politics. Best others do too.

I love the doublethink. How a felon, fraudster, sexual predator, liar, etc. etc. is going to be the greatest President ever. I wonder if Melania is coming to the debate, or is she still combing through the pre-nup?

yes

I've done it twice, on someone else's dime. Lots of them. Basically, you are at the front of the aircraft, with lounge- like seating that can morph into a bed. Once airborne, the cabin staff try to stuff you full of food and booze, while hoping you don't become a nuisance or start puking. The catering is really good, although it is designed to make you think you got your money's worth.

Sounds like a steal from "Oblomov" by Ivan Goncharov. Mix in other themes so the plagiarism is not obvious.

No, no. That can't be true. We are rational people.

Fat is not harmful. Sugar and high carbs are. Your body burns sugar, carbohydrate and fat for energy. Sugar is first in line. Carbohydrates second, fat last. Carbohydrates are hydrolyzed to sugars in the stomach. If you deprive your body of sugar, it burns fat instead to provide energy. I have a healthy BMI. I eat cheese every day. I exercise every day too.

She will be calling him out on every lie he spouts. You think an experienced prosecutor can't eviscerate a liar when they have them on the witness stand? It's why Trump never went there. This is the courtroom of public opinion.

Honing your skills here, are you? Pro tip: Begging the question won't work.

Ok got it. It's also an acronym for the Sydney Morning Herald, owned by Murdoch. A great friend to his shareholders. Fox just cost them $767 in the Dominion out of court settlement. You're not worried it might fall off?

I gave up smoking just before age 40. My lung capacity went progressively from 3.5 litres to 5.5 litres a year later. I have always exercised, but I have made it systematic over the last 4-5 years. Peak weight was 100 kg. Got it down to 78 kg, now back to 84 kg. The 78 kg was with zero sugar, and low carb vegetables. Very boring. Stopped drinking alcohol 18 months ago. Don't miss it. Never was a big drinker anyway. Blood pressure normal, resting pulse rate 60 bpm. I have had 4 forms of cancer. IMO I survived them all because I try to stay healthy, with diet and exercise. There's a massive tome put out by the World Health Organization called "Food, Nutrition, and Cancer". It's astonishing how often alcohol and obesity get mentioned, as statistically correlated with the various forms of cancer.

I don't think he can back off now, with all the bluster. His narcissism won't admit he can lose. A smarter move might have been saying I'm a President, I don't debate Vice-Presidents. He was smart enough to stay off any witness stand. He will have a former prosecutor armed with plenty of material. She will call him out as soon as he lies, which won't take long.

I am sure Golda Meir and Margaret Thatcher would agree with your opinion.

Felon. Braggart. Sexual predator. Racist. Misogynist. Calls dead soldiers suckers and losers. Why doesn't that justify the A-hole label? Talking of kindergarten insults, do you want me to quote the ones Trump has used?

Don't you remember Biden telling Trump to shut up, when he was talking over Biden in the 2019 debate? Trump tries to talk over everyone. He hates anyone else getting attention.

IMO Haley did too well in the primaries against Trump, and stomped on his ball sack too many times in campaigning. Trump probably let his vindictiveness get in the way of making a sensible choice.

That ship sailed a long time ago.

He seems to be ripping Vance a new one, not bad for just a poodle.

I don't know what that acronym means, so your post is wasted.

How about you post some links of your own that show Trump is leading?

Never too early. I have breakfast after my morning exercises, which includes mental ones. Thanks for contributing, even if it's in a small way.

The key question is whether the microphones will be muted, to stop Trump from bulldozing while Harris speaks. It looks like Trump's vanity has got the better of him. He chose Vance over Haley, a mistake. This looks like another one. It really would be karma if Harris gets Trump confused, as he did with Biden.

If you say so. Listening to a Trump speech is pretty funny too, in a masochistic way. He mangles the English language.
