Fat is a type of crazy

The point is she has that way of expressing herself as though she feels it is incumbent on her to praise Trump in such a sycophantic and clearly undignified way - best president ever for 100 days - how embarrassing - rather than simply present some information. Many of Trumps Toady picks do the same. It's sad. But the Trump supporters apparently don't see it or don't mind it, can enjoy Fox News as though it's real news, etc etc Different mind set and approach to how to be.

I noted, in a different post, Dutton timed it poorly. He started as a bit of a tough Trumpy guy but it looked fake and didn't resonate. One issue that backfired and became a big issue is his desire to stop work from home for public servants - painting them as lazy - as well as cutting lots of public service jobs. Meanwhile people saw what was happening in the States with cuts and such and Trump was never popular here in the first place. He then backtracked when he realised work from home is so popular and has attempted to soften his image but has seemingly floundered since.

For what it's worth I concur that the Democrats were too lax on the border. I have noted before - I don't really get the starry eyed Statue of Liberty stuff. Some migration is good but having strong borders is a necessary. They were looking to fix it somewhat in the second half of the last term but Trump stopped that. No need to go over the top in response though - not simply say the ends justifies the means - be fair.

Don't believe in rule of law. Rude too. Classic Trump fan.

If you watch the video it's clear what Trump thought. You'd think everyone can agree that the deported deserve due process. By all means deport if appropriate and within the law and done in a reasonable way.

So you think he actually has M S 1 3 on his fingers.

Can't get my head around people who watch it. Three minutes and you start to Like when he said the guy had MS13 written on his fingers and he was corrected but he doubled down. So weird and embarrassing. Like Fox News.

Funny Headline: Avid Trump supporter takes people who never admit they are wrong to task.

But there it is. Do it smart and no problems. He pretty much admits he is sacking first to keep up political momentum. Often he doesn't even know what cuts have been made on his behalf. Too focused on some dopey vaccine theory most likely. Selective cuts can be smart in the name of efficiency and cost cutting. Broad cuts are silly. Having to rehire staff if that is even possible. Show instead of substance. Classic Trump.

I don't know about closed hospitals but that's not necessarily a determining factor in what sort of job he's doing. John Oliver can be a bit trite but it's all fact checked and is a broad overview of different departments, agencies, and portfolios under his control that is really damning but up to you

Maybe its not Trump - see if you can watch him for 5 minutes and not be bored - I think its the fact so many believe in him - kind of continuously shocking.

If you seriously consider he's doing a good job - and have an open mind that he's not - I recommend you watch John Oliver from two nights ago. He does 30 minutes on the first 100 days of RFK Jnr and it's bad.

For the safe entry service at Bangkok I imagine that part of what is paid for is realistic advice on whether you'll get in i.e. they will only take your 4500 if they fairly certain you'll get in based on the information you give them regarding previous visits. Or do they say - this should increase your chances but who knows.

If you like RFK Jnr and have an open mind I recommend you watch John Oliver's show this week on what he has done thus far. It's worse than I thought. Posted this somewhere else but this one seems popular.

Some voices that were against the mainstream beliefs were treated badly. Fair enough and not good. But of course that's from the point of victimhood. You guys are mainly on the attack - against real scientific endeavours, against the media who tried to tell it how it was based on available information, against governments who had to do something because the buck stopped there.

But your posts come across as attacking others - you say things like ' The media , the MAIN street media, which until recently controlled the "information" fed to the masses........... has been shown now, over and over, to have lied and continue to remain 100% biased even as they are now sinking, sinking, sinking. ' To me that is an attack on most mainstream media that did a really good job and who got a lot right and a little wrong - much better strike rate than the non main stream. Terms like 'controlled the "information"' and 'lied' suggests a serious conscious conspiracy both from the medical establishments and the media and I don't think this is representative of overall reality . Doesn't mean bad players don't exist or mistakes weren't made. Or you might say you never got it without - it seems - considering that government actions on the pandemic and others taking precautions such as mask wearing and staying separate may have played a role in that. I am not trying to be personal but to point how others might interpret your words.

Here we have the classic victim post. Boo hoo. People didn't get it totally right all of the time and therefore I am going to paint them bad. False claims? Some were mistakes on the run, some actually correct e.g. masks can stop spread and staying home did help. How easy is it for people watching on to criticise those who have to act and make tough decisions. Things can be learnt, mistakes were made, some big ones but the vast majority did there best to keep people safe. Trump and RFK Jnr are the scammers ready to make the victims feel better about themselves.

Fair enough - meant to say, in the last post, to be fair they didn't do the best at that. As an Australian I feel some Democrats were way too soft and idealist on that topic. But the fearmongering was over the top - and worked

If you going back to the beginning it's gotta be Sparktrader. He was different. Something happened in the mean time. What turned Sparkie right wing.

The biggest fear of the right - Democrats. Bad economy and stock market will result. Overrun by immigrants - to be there they weren't the best on that. Drag Queen story hour at every school. A man dressed as a lady in every woman's toilet. Your kid will leave home a boy and come back a girl. Steaks will disappear. Replaced by tofu. Everyone must drive an electric car.

Not sure it's been covered - or if I am on the right track based on a quick look at the figures - but isn't the risk so low of getting many of these diseases simply because of past vaccination programs. So because of vaccination a disease is now rare - from an individual point of view it may now not be necessary to get a particular vaccine unless you are travelling to risky countries. But if widespread vaccination stops it opens the door to the disease e.g. measles. So the figures don't seem to be that useful in that sense.

You call me leftie but you probably can't point to left wing things I have said. Tariffs are to the left. High tax. Protectionist. Prone to corruption. Don't like them. Please don't mistake being not happy with current US leadership with being necessarily pro what the democrats espouse. If I had to say some good left ideas you have - subsidised health care, low cost education, well run government services in general, a tax system that keeps tax low, but not too low, but makes sure everyone pays a fair share with no loopholes etc, real freedom of expression free of religious interference . That sort of thing. That will do.

OK Because you made it political Fear mongering from the right includes Fear the media. You can't trust the media and it's fake news if Trump looks bad. Fear the election process. You can't trust election results if Trump loses Fear the experts. You can't trust scientists if they don't tell you things that fit with the narrative you are after Fear the smart people. You can't trust papers and statistics if they give you figures you don't like Fear the other. You exaggerate the threat from immigrants saying things like all the criminals and rapists and prisoners and crazy people from all around the world are on their way Fear the criminals. You need a gun. Better 10 guns. Fear the deep state. Fear the vaccines. That will do.
