I come from an era when hitting a woman put the hitter in the category of low-life scum. Beyond the pale. You're probably right. Every so often, she will come up to me and give me a hug, for no apparent reason.

I take care of her, she takes care of me. She tells me we have been together 14 years, I think it's a bit less. She was married to a Thai who was the whole 9 yards - a drunk, abusive and a gambler. We both try to stay in good shape. We have an argument, on average, once every six months. It's over in one hour. We used to screw like rabbits. Age has caught up with both of us. We still get it on occasionally. I am helping put her grand-daughter through university. We are happy together.

Howard is a treasonous little turd who dragged Australia into a war against security advice, and also introduced the GST he said we would never ever have. He's a piece of sh!t. OTOH, Turnbull has an intellect way beyond your comprehension and abilities. He took on the British government as a private lawyer, and won. He faced down Trump.

You know nothing about me, except what I choose to post. I do know you are defending a grub with an obsession of your own. Which doesn't say much about your mental acuity. What is your business background, that enables you to pass judgment on mine?

Name me one leader in the Western world that does not think Trump is an idiot.

The official owner of Trump Tower is GMAC Commercial Mortgage. The Trump empire has been crumbling for some time. There are a number of companies who are removing his name from the NY buildings they actually owns. His brand is tacked on to leases.

There is not a single US bank that will lend Donald Trump money. If he is the billionaire he says he is, they should be falling over themselves. He owes Deutsche Bank $300 million. When the $450 million NY judgment was appealed, he did not have the cash for the bond. When it was reduced to $150 million, he still could not raise the money. The lawyers are still arguing, over whether the security advanced from a dodgy California entity, with less NTA than the bond amount, is valid. This from a guy who claims to be worth $5-6 billion? I don't have to be at the top of the accounting profession to realize something stinks to high heaven, and it's not fish. As for derogatory, I will do that as much as I please when I am posting about a felon, sexual predator, golf cheat and narcissistic sociopath, who disrespects everyone who is not captivated by his BS. You'll just have to suck it up. Meantime, here's a couple of charts on fiscal policy. They are not hard to understand. .

Why would Putin go to Mongolia in the first place? Hypothesis 1: To get passage across Mongolia for pipelines from the Siberian oil and gas fields to China. Shipping of oil is proving to be just too expensive and risky. Hypothesis 2: Recruiting cannon fodder for the meat grinder in Ukraine.

I doubt it. The gun-toters would be no match for the regular army and the National Guard. On the bright side, if the gun-toters do go to war, the average IQ in America would shoot up by at least 6 points after they are gone.

My congratulations Bob. From having about $800,000 in cash, there are now 5 properties in the name of your missus. She must be very persuasive. Was it the small head or the big head that made the decision to buy them for her?

I'll wager more people read his than yours.

Reminds me of Alan Bond , who managed to lose money on a brewery. In Australia, no less.

Can you name one property that Trump owns outright, not encumbered by debt? Not much of a business background, although I do have an accounting qualification. I can accept someone going bankrupt, and rebuilding. Doing it 7 times with a slew of business failures is a bridge too far. Personally, I have no experience of being bankrupt. The last time I owed anyone money was 50 years ago, even then I had ample collateral. I don't even have a credit rating. Impossible to rate someone who does not use credit. What do you think Trump's is? I am not a deadbeat debtor like Trump. I pay my bills as soon as I get them. It means I don't have them on my mind from then on.

It's over 4 years since Trump tried to stage an insurrection to stay in power. I have 26,000 posts on ASEAN. To meet your standard of 50+ anti-Trump posts a day, I would have to post 73,000 times on Trump exclusively. Projecting. Run that comment about personal insults past me again. Hypocrite. Bye bye now, something else to do.

House of cards. He's been bankrupt 7 times. Doesn't that tell you anything?

Rubbish. I have other things to do. I don't see much excitement in diapers, not that I need to. I don't think Melania would be changing them for him. OTOH, you seem to spend your days haunting multiple threads, trying to troll people with inane comments.

I am not facing time in jail. I don't have judgments north of $500 million against me. I don't have to grovel for money to pay the platoons of lawyers appealing judgments. I don't have to campaign until November in the hope i can stay out of jail. I have no debt, most of what Trump owns is encumbered. I'm not sure how you reached the opinion his life must be better than mine. His stress levels must be off the charts.

The guy who wrote the Forbes article has a BA in comparative religion. That automatically makes him a d!ckhead IMO. Yes, I know. Another insult. What has Walz's economic performance got to do with the thread title?

So what? Why would I want one? What makes you think Trump can afford them? Doing fine is facing jail time? Trump buys golf courses because he wants to put his name up on the championship boards. Pathetic. My name is up on the championship boards of three golf clubs. Unlike Trump, I won fair and square. As you probably would not know the difference between a pitching wedge and a lob wedge, I don't expect you to understand how much real golfers despise Trump.

Don't need to. During COVID, every golf course in the world lost money. A golf course employs between 10 and 100 people per 18 holes. Greenkeepers, bar and restaurant staffers, pro shop, office workers. They all have to be paid, and the only source of income during COVID is member subscriptions.

Deflection. The topic is Walz and his older brother.

Sibling rivalry is a well-known phenomenon, very common in families with more than one child. Most frequent in the 10-15 age group, when one or both are dealing with puberty. Some people reconcile, others never resolve the conflict To me, this whole thread is a nothing burger. Truth bomb? More like a damp squib.

Not at all. The dumb posters are the ones who can't accept the facts, statistics, and data I post, and post their cockeyed beliefs in countervailing argument. A dumb poster is one who uses personal insults in lieu of genuine debate. How's that going for you?

Trump was successful with "The Apprentice" . He got fired in 2015 by NBC after making remarks about Mexican immigrants, with left him without income to support his other failing enterprises. Trump started buying golf courses in 1999. By the time he started his run for President, the Trump organization owned 17 golf courses. Nearly all of them lose money. He's an entertainer who is under the delusion he is a good businessman. His success there lies in grifting stupid people. Quite amazing the contrast with Zelensky, who morphed from a comedian to a statesman. OTOH, Trump reduced the status of himself and America in the eyes of the world.

Post a link which shows Russian propaganda supporting Harris, or condemning Trump. Here's one of about half a dozen. https://www.politico.eu/article/russia-punching-bag-joe-biden-us-elections-2024-washington-kremlin-propaganda-moscow/ Try not lying yourself. Isn't it time to change identities again? You have no credibility in this one.
