  1. Nobody has said he hasn't been showing signs of aging.
  2. To clarify what I was talking about using Medicare ADVANTAGE to have emergency event care abroad, that is a very real thing now. There are even clinics in Mexico that specialize in such patients and openly advertise it. If you're really an expat though it's a kind of fraud, because you must NEVER tell the Medicare ADVANTAGE people that you live abroad. It's a kind of TRAVEL INSURANCE. But again, it has now become a huge trend with American expats in Latin America, especially Mexico and Panama. If you're interested you need to contact an agent specializing in this (check youtube channels for expats in Mexico and Panama) as they can assist in applying to the SPECIFIC Medicare Advantage companies that have the kind of care abroad cover you're seeking. Also, you absolutely must be seen by SS as living in the U.S. and that U.S. address is also used by Medicare and the specific Advantage insurance companies and offers available to you will be zip code specific to your zip code. Also you need to follow the claim rules if you ever use it which an agent can inform you about. I'm surprised this has become so popular in Latin America. I was kind of expecting a crackdown but have not heard of any.
  3. You're lying. We accepted we were stuck with him.
  4. Probably will be in effect before the end of the year.
  5. It won't happen and democrats would be horrified too as they absolutely do not want Harris as the nominee. Biden needs to voluntary decide to withdraw from accepting the nomination.
  6. That's your opinion. Most democrats think Trump will be easy to beat with a strong candidate such as those three. Hopefully we can test out that theory, as Biden's chances appear so bad now.
  7. If Biden dies during his current term, then yes, Harris becomes president until the end of Biden's first term. As far as discussion of REPLACING Biden as the democratic party nominee before the democratic party convention, the overwhelming consensus from democrats (the only people that matter in internal party matters) is that there is no point in doing that if Harris replaces him. The point of replacing him as the party nominee is to increase the chances of beating Trump. Nobody thinks Harris offers that. Replacing the nominee has no connection with a president resigning as president. In other words Biden would finish his term while another democrat accepts the nomination to oppose Trump. That all said it's very unlikely that Biden will step down from accepting the nomination. Unfortunately. The leading names of people democrats think have a better chance of beating Trump include Newsom, Whitmer, and Shapiro. Not Harris. Definitely not Harris.
  8. It needs to come from him. He should but he probably won't.
  9. So you want the democrats to lose. Noted.
  10. Conspiracy theory garbage. It's never democrats that mention Michelle. But it is a Fox News crowd favorite. Harris is no problem if she agrees on a consensus candidate with a much better chance than her to win.
  11. Medicare A and B no coverage abroad. A is free You should enroll. B has a fee about 170 a month and up. Medicare ADVANTAGE is not the same! It can even reduce the B fee. It replaces B. But you must have a US address on file with SS to enroll in an ADVANTAGE plan. With ADVANTAGE there is some emergency coverage abroad. A and B not. If you plan on repatriation not paying for B will cause a lifetime penalty of 10 percent for each year not paid from age 65.
  12. If a local grocery store doesn't have it you can order 100 percent peanuts no additives peanut butter on Lazada.
  13. Well if you register a US address with SS you can sign up for a Medicare Advantage plan which is US zip code based to get insurance that will cover you abroad for acute emergency events but not chronic conditions. Downside might be if SS discovers you're really an expat that is viewed as fraud and benefits could be stopped.
  14. That menu of choices makes my head spin. Happy to be an old school generic cisgender 99.9 percent gay male. Why not 100 percent? Well I can't help but to look at butch lesbians when they could pass as cute twinks.
  15. On thar list I wouldn't have guessed Brussels and I would have expected Rio over Sao Paolo. Madrid seems to be missing.
  16. Good to hear from our resident expert on all things craven
  17. A dead body would make a better president than Trump.
  18. I'm happy to leave decisions about how to deal with Holocaust deniers up to German government.
  19. I'm not buying the cold excuse regardless. That was the most atrocious failure in a televised presidential debate in American history. It's not about one man. It's about beating fascism.
  20. You don’t have a clue. There is no need to resign to withdraw from seeking the nomination. No connection There is zero chance he'll be forcibly removed.
  21. I love Amy but she isn't much on the radar at the moment.
