How original. Its like she is studying on how to be an opposition leader.

Trumps jokes write themselves.

That was because you had no choice in the 1970s as no vaccine had been created at that time. Many of those kids who got it back then can look forward to shingles in their later years.

America is just embarrassing itself on the world stage with an undignified SOTU. Its reality show TV.

If you believe the Ukrainian people have agency (the right to make their own choices), then saying the U.S. and NATO "overthrew" the government feels like a deflection. It ignores the millions of Ukrainians who risked their lives protesting their Yanukovych (Ukraine president at the time) who had suddenly backed out of a major trade deal with the European Union (which the public wanted) to take a $15 billion bailout from Russia instead. After nearly 100 people were killed by snipers, Yanukovych realized he had lost the support of the police and his own party, so he fled.

If the current leadership remains in power and the war ends without a clear sense of justice, the "West" will likely treat Russia as a pariah for a long time, perhaps generations. But if there is a massive change inside Russia (like a new government that apologizes and pays for damages), the "Germany model" shows that even the worst enemies can eventually become partners and be accepted back into the world.

If Democrats gain a House majority in the November 2026 midterms (polls currently show them leading by 3-7 points in the generic ballot, with projections favoring Democratic control at ~60-80% probability), it's highly likely they'd pursue impeachment over the SCOTUS-ruled illegal tariffs, abuse of power claims, and other controversies like DOJ actions against opponents. Conviction in the Senate would still require a 2/3 vote, which is less probable without major shifts.

The Supreme Court's decision indeed reinforces the constitutional checks on executive power, showing that even bold presidential actions like these tariffs can be reined in by the judiciary. It highlights a functioning democracy rather than unchecked authority, which can undercut hyperbolic claims of fascism or king-like rule—narratives often amplified in polarized discourse but grounded more in perception and the minds of the polarised than institutional reality.

It's a cult by definition:

Pushing the legal boundaries of what one person can do without Congress during peacetime, many historians will rank Trump as the most extreme in U.S. history. His supporters argue he isn't being "extreme," but is simply being "effective" by using powers that Congress lazily gave away to the White House over the last 100 years.

The poll is ridiculous to ask "if" there are elections, so I won't answer it based on that. Elections are not an if, they are guaranteed by law. Of course the GOP is going to take a drubbing in the mid terms, they are full of themselves and need to be brought into line with reality.

Social media and biased news sites often spread hyperbole by the minute, Sky News's Beth "Hyperbole" Rigby a prime example, GB Hyberbolx News another. They create the noise as it pays their salaries. Fact is no cabinet members have resigned, so expect the UK PM to stay in the job until the next General Election is due in 2029.

3rd Nov, the mid terms. Trumps lot are going to get an arse whipping, Bad Bunny was just the warm up act.

Saying the video has "nothing to do with racism" is like saying a middle finger has "nothing to do with being rude"—the cultural meaning is so strong that it is very difficult to separate the two. Calling it a "deflection" is itself a tactic to avoid taking responsibility for "liking" this offensive content as you clearly do. The outrage didn't just come from the media, but from across the political spectrum, including many of Trump's own allies who felt the video crossed a line of basic human decency.

Cherry picking, the focal point of any GOP argument.
