One big thing everyone is overlooking: even if you don't owe anything, you will have to fill out a tax form to prove it. At that point, you are trapped in the tax system. I am taking 2 precautionary measures right now, in the unlikely event that this is implemented in 2024: 1) Transferring in money from the US to my Thai bank before January 1. 2) I will spend the first 2 months of the year abroad. If this tax thing has crashed and burned by then, no problem. If it is still a threat after February 1, I will plan further trips overseas (out of Thailand).

Hitler didn't start any wars for the first 6 years or so of his Nazi dictatorship. When Trump goes around quoting Hitler, he has already violated Godwin's Law.

You are making this too easy. The anti-vax mandate, anti-abortion types are very confused people.

So, why are you so opinionated about US issues, if you don't care? It seems like a lot of the Trump supporters here are not from the US.

The problem is that the Republicans don't want a deal. They just want to complain and then do nothing. The House just passed some language that sounds tough, but does very little.

Trump didn't smuggle the illegals, he just hired them. To stop illegal immigration, the Border Patrol should be raiding work sites and big farms. Unfortunately, the owners of those places have a lot of political pull.

Meanwhile, Trump is paraphrasing Mein Kampf to his followers. This is a scary time, folks.

Except for the reality that accepted scientific theory can be changed by better data. On the other hand some people cannot accept better data. Not very scientific of them.

The scientific approach was and is to protect people against illness.

So, where are you on abortion? What do you think of Trump and his ilk wanting to control women's bodies?

Can you think of anyone else who contributed to the mess in Afghanistan?

It's very simple: Trump is a demented nutter who yearns for adulation from his fans. If this isn't enough to win, he will cry foul and hope to steal the election.

Easy for you to support Trump, you don't have to suffer the consequences.

I guess you are a warrior in the fight to be able to infect others.

https://www.presidency.ucsb.edu/statistics/data/ronald-reagan-public-approval Take a look at Ronald Reagan in 1983, the year before the election. His numbers were similar to Biden. Note that Reagan won a blowout the next year.

Were you forced to get vaccinated? Did someone come to your house and drag you to the clinic?

January 6 wasn't a major incident?

Yeah, you went through the stages of Trump denial quickly. Remember, Trump is a candidate for President. You really want to elect a guy who claims to be against illegal immigration, but hires them himself?

You are referring to illegals caught at the border, not those who made it in to the US. "Processed" = caught. And no, you are not seeing hordes crossing a river into the US. FOX News and other dubious sources were showing people crossing the Suchiate river between Guatemala and Mexico. I've been there. The state of Chiapas in Mexico does have a problem with illegal aliens. One of your problems is what you think you know about illegal immigration is misinformation. I'll be happy to go over the facts with you.

wow. You are comparing a university president whose position was that students should have unfettered free speech to mass shooters? What kind of drugs are you on, and can I have some, too?

A lot of voters just vote for the incumbent. Trump won't have that this time.

Yep, informal inquiries are like that. But official police investigations have a predicate, some illegal act to be investigated. Whereas the Biden inquiry has nothing. Zero.

Trump's speeches echo manifestos written by mass shooters.

Trump admitted he knew about his illegal employees.

Yes, Trump had a copy of Mein Kampf. And, yes, Trump paraphrases the book in his speeches. Does that make him a Nazi? How long before his cult followers say "what's wrong with being a Nazi?"
