12 minutes ago, impulse said:Biden may be able to hold his own in a debate about ice cream, but he's well and truly screwed if they ask him about inflation, the border, the cost of housing and health care for "newcomers", multiple wars on his watch, Israel (or Palestine- he loses on both), Afghanistan, the Biden family business, mortgage rates and home affordability, the cost of gas, credit card debt (or national debt), or cannibals.
You actually think Trump could answer coherently any of those questions? Seriously? That's funny....555555.

I look forward to this debate. It will reveal to Trump supporters (and the rest of America) that right wing media has been lying to them all along. Biden is not senile and has been busy doing his job. Trump, on the other hand, is a raging idiot who doesn't have command of the issues. This article best explains what is likely to happen....
[Biden is eager for the chance to stand toe-to-toe with his predecessor because it will be incredibly hard to look worse in comparison.]
[But set aside for a moment the fact that Trump is a lousy debater who is clearly addled and losing his ability to speak in public. And the fact that his policy positions are broadly unpopular. And that historians consider him the worst president ever. And that Biden has a great record and has a demonstrated mastery over its details.]

Only because this is Trump is it dragged into the social networks views and most likely made into worse than it really is. You really need to look at both parties and who supports them financially.
If money is sent to elect or re-elect a prez. You can be sure their campaigns are supported by some large industry. With trump it may be oil and gas. With Biden it may be or been with the pharmaceutical companies.
What would you say if you learned Bidens campaign last term was financially backed by drug companies? Maybe even the same companies that pushed the Covid vaccine into everyone's bodies? This is all part of the normal process to get money to pay for their campaign.
If Biden were to ask big pharma for a billion dollars and promise them that he would let them raise drug prices with impunity, you might have a point. Do you have any evidence that Biden has done that?

So I look at the Trump years- 2% inflation, two dollar gas, record low unemployment for minorities, steps towards peace in the Middle East, attempts to engage with North Korea, etc. and from a pragmatic point of view, it ain't bad. Then compare the Biden years...not so good. It is also a position held by a majority of American voters.
It's amazing to me that some Americans would rely on certain things that the POTUS has no control over (e.g., economy, inflation, world events, etc.) and completely ignore the individual character of the candidates. It seems the Republican party no longer cares about things like morality, honesty, integrity, law and order, family values, etc. Why else would they support a corrupt lying conman with multiple indictments who would cheat on his wife after she's just given birth? Isn't the President supposed to be the ultimate role model for our children? We'll see in November I guess.

4 minutes ago, spidermike007 said:I disagree, their economy will survive, and is very dynamic right now. Their economy may diminish in size, they may have negative GDP which is to be expected when populations decline, but negative GDP is not as bad as people portray it to be. So what if the economy shrinks? So what if jobs are lost?
A nation can continue to thrive under those circumstances and a growing population is not necessarily a good thing.
It's not that simple. Japan can automate and shrink their GDP all they want, but who's going to pay for the aging population? What's declining is people of working age; the senior population is growing. They need more workers to pay taxes to keep their social security system solvent.

Homogenous societies like Japan see far fewer issues from the "cultural enrichers" that Liberals in the west love to celebrate while quoffing champagne at their Islington dinner parties. Immigrants provide cheap labour for large multinationals at the expense of the local communities. It's clear to see which side Biden is supporting and it is not the "common man".
Japan must be laughing at this silly old fool, and rightly so.
We can add this ridiculous criticism of Japan to a long list of ridiculous comments made by Biden, alongside the likes of "poor kids are just as smart as white kids" and "if you vote Trump, you ain't black".
Have you ever been to Japan? I lived in Japan a few years. Even they know they have problems, with declining birth rates and an aging population. But there was still a resistance to "gaijins," or foreigners. Yes, Japan is among the safest and cleanest places I've been. But their economy will not survive unless they're more open to foreign workers.

I am always amused when people like you accuse others of not being smart.
Of course, he's correct. Anyone who still believes that Trump won the 2020 election is off-the-charts stupid. I'll go even further to say people that stupid should not be allowed to vote. But if that were the case, MAGA Republicans would never win another election.

It was embarrassing watching Trump try to claim that 1,000's of protestors were turned away by police. There were only a handful and they weren't turned away by police. Trump has reached the point where he will just make up a total lie and assume that his nutty supporters will believe it. Well wait, he's always done that.

21 hours ago, Danderman123 said:There is major manipulation going on that is impacting the share price of this stock.
As long as Trump allies can throw money at the stock, when the price dips, then it will rally. Of course, the Shorts make money during this cycle, and sooner or later, the Trump allies will tire of handing money to the Shorts.
This stock may be one of Trump's greatest grift ever. He and his buddies stand to make a killing...but the money has to come from somewhere. Perfect that it's mostly his supporters getting the shaft. This stock will fluctuate all over the place for awhile, but when market fundamentals kick in, it has nowhere to go but down.

8 minutes ago, Danderman123 said:In their opening statement, the Defense asserted that Trump didn't have sex with Stormy Daniels. If Ms. Daniels is a persuasive witness, the Jury will convict based on just that point.
I suspect that we are going to see a defense tactic similar to the Carroll case, over the definition of sex. It's possible that they didn't have full intercourse, and so the Trump fans will repeat their claims that Trump really didn't have sex. And therefore Stormy Daniels is lying.
That defense has been brought up before. But it begs the question...."If there were no sexual relations, why would Trump pay $130,000 to Daniels to keep quiet about something that never happened?" Any reasonable person (which doesn't include Trump supporters) would see that it doesn't make sense.

If US rates come down, so will the currency. If Thai rates come down so will the currency. You then have state of the nation......US in an awful pickle what with provoking wars to break out everywhere, and the tax payer has to pay for them and a deficit of $1 trillion this year so, $3 trillion forecast for this year. Thailand in a smaller pickle, but a pickle being created by a mindless baboon who dreams up new expensive gimmicks every day and never ever finishes a job.
You hope not? If you're getting US SS, you'd certainly want a weaken THB. I've got no complaints and hope the THB keeps heading south. But nothing goes down forever....

Another one of Trump's harebrained schemes which only his idiot supporters would buy into. Even if Trump managed to manipulate the USD, other countries could do the same which would bring us back to square one. But it would wreak havoc in the world financial markets and make the US a laughingstock.

This company can't be saved. The only thing I know for certain is that the insiders (including Trump) are going to bleed this company dry. And of course, the pissant retail investors will lose their collective as*ses.

There are other ways for Putin and the Saudis to help Trump (and themselves) rather than invest in this turd stock. Besides, Trump will be dumping his shares at the first opportunity. That's when the stock will really crash. Trump will be fleecing his own supporters....and he's perfectly fine with that.

He's lying. Has a long, deep track record of lying. He bragged about being the one who got Roe reversed thru his packing SCOTUS.
Like any used car salesman grifter, he will say whatever it takes to close the deal.
Of course, you're right. Trump doesn't have any core values/beliefs, only what's good for Trump. If he thought being a hardcore pro-lifer (like Pence) would win him the election, that's what he would be. Rather amazing so many continue to believe his non-stop lies. I hope his most rabid supporters invest heavily in Truth Social, aka DJT stock. Maybe after they're bankrupt, they may realize they've been conned all along. Or maybe not....5555.

Up Dated: Trump Agrees to Biden's Invite For a Presidential Debate

Obviously. Only a Trump cult member would think otherwise. Have you seen Trump blabbering lately? Aside from lying non-stop, the guy goes off on crazy, incoherent gibberish. Trump's brain is declining rapidly....not that there was much there to begin with.
