Trump picks J.D. Vance as running mate for VP at Republican convention
Lacessit replied to webfact's topic in World News
Trump has already announced he will weaponize the DOJ to go after his enemies, his main policy plank is retribution. He has already loaded up the Supreme Court to do his bidding, as witness the immunity decision. Courtesy of Walter Reed Hospital, he gets the best medical care, courtesy of the American taxpayer. It's been almost 80 years since an American president died in office from natural causes, medicine has come a long way in that time. Besides which, IMO he is too ornery to die. -

The Big Tent doesn't seem to include the UAW or Taylor Swift followers. It's only big in terms of Trump hijacking the GOP completely. -

I was factoring in the time for the legal challenges to get tossed out by the courts. Trump doesn't know how to lose graciously. -

I don't see any links in your post. Only ad hominem abuse, following Trump's modus operandi. -

51.1 % of the population in America are women. Unless they are members of the loony Christian nationalist right, it's pretty safe to assume they won't be impressed by old men telling them they can't make their own decisions about their bodies. -

I notice the cult at the convention has taken to wearing similar ear bandages. They really should do both ears, then they would not have to listen to anyone else at all. -

I guess when you develop any kind of ailment, you just tough it out. And you will never get to be old enough to need them. Please close the loop on the stupidity of your comment by confirming you are an anti-vaxxer. -

I mean overvaluing properties to get better interest rates on the loans, then undervaluing the same properties to minimize NY property taxes. That's theft, and Trump has been penalized more than $450 million for it. Pay attention. -

Trump claims it is everyone else as a matter of habit. He also claims the 2020 election was stolen. Which is ironic, as he tried to steal the election with false electors. Not to mention stealing millions in fraudulent property valuations in NY, and settling with sub-contractors for cents on the dollar. Then there is Trump University. The man is a thief, pot kettle black. -
I've noticed in Chiang Rai restaurant prices have gone up by 10 - 20 baht. A Caesar salad that used to cost 70 baht now costs 89.

I am not jealous of people richer than me. They earned it. So did I. Musk is a single example. No doubt there are plenty of examples such as Murdoch who have evaded tax for many years. The top 400 wealthiest people in America paid on average 8.2% in tax on their income. Trump will be giving them tax cuts. The average middle income earner in the US pays 22-24% tax on their income. If you think that's fair, you really are a brick short of a load. -
IMO Thai women are better when they are girl friends, than as wives. Not that I have experience of the latter, mind. It's more related to Thai family law.

It seems to me the majority of the whingings are coming from the MAGA camp. Please explain to me the justification for billionaires to pay no tax at all, or derisory amounts, just because they can afford platoons of tax lawyers. Trump supporters probably don't realise they will be the first in line to be stiffed by Trump if he is elected again. Perhaps you don't recall Trump dudding sub-contractors, and boasting it was good business. The Presidency expands his window of opportunity exponentially. -

I get it, there was no insurrection, Trump never suggested bleach, never said he had the greatest economy. Blah blah blah Just keep on swallowing the Kool-Aid, Mr. Sheeple. -

That life story actually embodies what is so wrong with American politics. It should inspire Americans to realize theirs is a land of unique opportunity. Americans have the strongest military in the world. Surrounded by two oceans, invasion is basically impossible. Most other countries live under that threat forever. Americans have some of the best medical facilities and life support systems. They have some of the cheapest fossil fuels in the world, thanks to the shale revolution. They also have some of the world's best arable land. They have 38 rivers longer than 500 miles, many countries have to make do with less than a dozen. America is self-sufficient in energy and food. The toolkit of every right-wing politician in America includes the culture of complaint and grievance. It feeds on people who have destroyed themselves with their own life choices, much easier to blame someone else. I'm sick of hearing Americans whine, like puling children. -

IIRC another poster asked you when you were going to post a link to anything. I also recall calling you a liar on the basis of a claim you made. You'd rather I completely atrophy my brain cells, by tuning into liars such as Sean Hannity or Tucker Carlson? -

Let's see - " the Capitol was assaulted by a small number of people" False. It was the deadliest insurrection in America's history. " I offered Pelosi 10,000 National Guardsmen" Lie. He sat on his hands for hours watching on TV, and wanted to go to the Capitol in support. " During my Presidency, I had the best environmental numbers ever" Lie. He rolled back environmental protections, routinely attempted deep job cuts in the federal EPA. " Other countries are flooding America with people they have freed from prison" Lie. No evidence whatsoever to support the claim. " We had the greatest economy in history" Lie. Trump left the White House with fewer jobs than when he started. Clinton's economic growth was 4%, Trump's was 2.8% I could go on, but I am not going to convince someone with a closed mind. -

AFAIK they were CNN fact checkers. "The truth is incontrovertible. Malice may attack it, ignorance may deride it, but in the end, there it is". Winston Churchill
