Taylor Swift Caught in Crosshairs of Bizarre MAGA Conspiracy Theory
rudi49jr replied to Social Media's topic in World News
Always with the ‘both sides are equally bad’. I’m quite sure the crazies are pretty much concentrated on one side of the aisle. MAGA minds seem to have a real knack for coming up with the most outrageous lies and conspiracy theories. Case in point: this insane MAGA conspiracy theory involving Taylor Swift. -
Thailand deports dissident Russian rockers to Israel
rudi49jr replied to webfact's topic in Thailand News
Thailand is getting awfully chummy with Russia, strengthening ties and whatnot. The Thai powers that be probably don’t want to rock that boat and decided to just get rid of them. Out of sight, out of mind, or something to that effect…. -
Alleged encroachment in Bang Khanun protected forest sparks controversy
rudi49jr replied to snoop1130's topic in Bangkok News
When are they going to seriously go after people like this? Because all they probably get is a slap on the wrist, a small fine and maybe ‘moved to an inactive post’ (never really understood what that means), so there is absolutely no deterrent not to engage in this kind of activity, as the rewards greatly outweigh any possible penalty. I do realize that when they do seriously start going after this kind of corruption, at least half the government workforce would be out of a job, or in jail, where they belong. -

You mean the entertainment celebrity Donald Trump, who thinks he actually knows what he’s talking about? -
You guys crack me up. Calling Democrats marxist, communist, socialist just demonstrates that you have absolutely no idea what marxist, communist and socialist mean, and you’re just repeating the moronic talking points provided to you by Trump and his minions. It is really beyond me how someone can support Trump and at the same time claim to be a patriot, a defender of democracy and the constitution. Those two things are simply incompatible.

Seeing as how desperately he’s trying to fleece the rubes and get free money from them, I suspect he has less available cash than most self-proclaimed millionaires, much less billionaires. He’s always bragging about how vastly wealthy he is, so it’s a mystery to me why he’s constantly begging everybody and their uncle for money. An even bigger mystery to me is why millions of Americans actually donate their hard earned money to this grifter.

Bankruptcy: completely legal. That may be, but if by doing so you stiff (tens of) thousands of small contractors out of millions of dollars, it becomes morally quite iffy in my books. Just because something is legal doesn’t mean it’s morally okay. Billionaires hire the best accountants to hide their money so they pay hardly any or even no taxes at all. Perfectly legal, but morally/ethically completely reprehensible. Who would I recommend as his lawyer? How would I know, I’m no expert. But Trump now hires the kind of lawyers who forget to check the ‘jury trial’ box (after which he kept whining that he was denied a jury trial), or who get bench-slapped by a judge 14 times in a single day because she doesn’t have a clue how to conduct herself in a courtroom (https://www.businessinsider.com/e-jean-carroll-judge-bench-slaps-trump-attorney-alina-habba-2024-1). So I’m quite sure there are much better lawyers out there. And as for which lawyer was stiffed: maybe you should ask Rudi Giuliani. This also makes for some interesting reading, by the way, regarding the way Trump ‘does business’: https://www.usatoday.com/story/news/politics/elections/2016/06/09/donald-trump-unpaid-bills-republican-president-laswuits/85297274/

He’s very experienced in declaring bankruptcy (did it five or six times already), so maybe he’ll try to pull that schtick one more time. Although for that to actually happen, he should get much better lawyers. But the really good ones won’t touch him with a ten foot pole, because they know Trump will stiff them with the bill.

And the more he's victimised, the more votes he will get from normal citizens. I think it’s cute that you think of yourself and others like you as ‘normal’. When I watch MAGA Trump supporters and/or GOP voters being interviewed on TV or Youtube or something, the very last thing that comes to my mind is ‘wow, those are some very levelheaded, normal persons’. Quite the opposite would be true. I also think it’s cute that you think Trump is being victimized. Just a mere 91 indictments so far, and counting. All just a big witch-hunt, right? Nothing to do with Trump being guilty as sin and (finally) being held accountable for his many, many crimes.

Can you provide proof judges and witnesses are being “attacked “? I didn’t think so. They’re being verbally attacked by Trump (and his minions), which usually opens the floodgates of - among other things - death threats by the MAGA mob. Why do you think judge Chutkan needed extra protection after Trump posted about her on Truth Social? Trump knows very well what he is doing, and he is intentionally putting judges, DA’s, special prosecutors and witnesses in the crosshairs of his blindly loyal followers. He doesn’t care one iota if his words incite violence or lead to bloodshed, because all he cares about is himself. He would throw Don jr, Eric and Ivanka under the bus in a heartbeat to save his own sorry @ss.

Pita warns Phuket may become a garbage hell if not addressed
rudi49jr replied to snoop1130's topic in Phuket News
IMO most of Thailand already is a garbage hell. As well as an air pollution hell because people keep burning their garbage, including plastics and everything. It’s really time for the government to step up and introduce a comprehensive nation wide garbage collection system. -
Assault on Kiev: Russian helicopters swoop above Ukraine's capital
rudi49jr replied to Chris.B's topic in The War in Ukraine
Not there yet, because Orban - the Putin stooge in the heart of Europe and wannabe dictator - is still opposed. He’s probably holding out for a couple of billion $$$ or €€€ in ‘aid’ -
You must go to a different France than I go to, I’ve never had any problems with line cutters there. In my experience, most French people are actually very polite and helpful. Maybe you are one of those people who loves France, but thinks it’s a pity that so many French people live there?

I’m not sure who’s intellectually challenged here. A few days ago you posted a rather distasteful post in a thread about a woman almost dying from being stung by box jellyfish. You got called out on that, and reacted like an indignant 5-year-old. Judging by your post here, that’s still bothering you and you’re still harping on about that. My advice: grow a pair and move on, dude.
