  1. I can remember, in the 1950s, signs like this on peoples houses. Nowadays, they come through the internet.
  2. And how many decades ago was that? The problem with only buying 8 helicopters is 2 fold. 1. During normal training, the most helicopters available on a daily basis will be 5 or if they are very lucky, 6. 2. In a real shooting war, 6 will be available for a first strike, for the second strike, they may be lucky to raise 4, for a 3rd strike they may get 1 or 2, there will probably be no 4th strike as they will all have been destroyed in action. It would be best if the airmen were trained in ground defence as there will most likely be no helicopters left.
  3. Where are YOUR links to prove him wrong?
  4. You are already in negative points.
  5. Were you there at the time, and actually saw it happen? Or are people just supposed to accept that your unsubstantiated words are true?
  6. Even I have heard of Bruce Springsteen. OTOH, Kid Rock. The first time I heard of him was on this thread.
  7. Yuuge crowds? I wonder where they were hiding.
  8. How about a good old British name like David Bowie's son, Zowie Bowie, or people named after the entire football club player's names.
  9. It depends I think, on which passport he came to Thailand on, and whether he had or needed a visa. A British passport he would probably have needed a visa of some sort. If he used a Thai passport and a Thai ID card he shouldn't have needed a visa.
  10. A country that proves it's behind terrorism should never be allowed to possess nuclear weapons. And would that also apply to Israel and/or the USA.
  11. More BS from you.
  12. The money that was returned to Iran, actually belonged to Iran in the first place and was for military equipment ordered by the Shah of Iran and cancelled after his overthrow. Any person who even did an internet search would know that. Obviously fools who have no idea and never research the story would not know that. There are many links about that on the internet talking about that fact. Here is one that has been fact checked which proves the story is false and misleading. No self respecting MAGA supporter would read it anyway. https://www.factcheck.org/2024/05/posts-misrepresent-unfreezing-of-16-billion-in-iranian-funds/
  13. Firstly, he has to become the president before he can do anything. At this point he is only a private citizen with a very loud mouth, and a brain which does not seem to be connected to anything useful.
  14. I am sure that they can read. Comprehension is another story.
  15. But then he would have to find something else to whine about.
  16. Do you know ANYTHING about the Haitians in Springfield, Ohio? They are LEGAL immigrants and NOT illegal. If you believe Trump and his constant lies, along with Vance and HIS constant lies, that would make you as dumb as both of them. The Democrats ARE removing illegal immigrants, try using the search facilities of the internet, such as this link. And there are many more that you will refuse to believe either. After all Trump and Vance would never tell a lie, would they? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Deportation_and_removal_from_the_United_States#:~:text=The first deportations from the,law which permitted such deportations. Then look up the 20th and 21st centuries within the link. During Donald Trump’s presidency the number of undocumented immigrants deported decreased drastically.[21] While under Trump's presidency, U.S. Immigration Customs Enforcement has conducted hundreds of raids in workspaces and sent removal orders to families, they are not deporting as many immigrants as were deported under Obama's presidency. In Obama's first three years in office, around 1.18 million people were deported, while around 800,000 deportations took place under Trump in his three years of presidency.[21] In the final year of his presidency Trump deported an additional 186,000 immigrants, bringing his total to just under 1 million for his full presidency.[22] Since Biden has taken over office, these numbers have increased drastically. During the course of the 24 months of the 2019 and 2020 fiscal years, the DHS documented 1.4 million arrests under Trump. On the other hand, in less than 26 months, the Biden administration's DHS has made over 5 million arrests. Furthermore, the Biden administration has deported the majority of individuals apprehended, but the Trump administration deported a minority of them. Specifically, the Biden government is deporting people at a rate that is 3.5 times higher each month than it was under Trump.[23] I am sure that you won't believe a word of the link, which makes you a MAGA supporter.
  17. Good for you. What wise code did you use, as some go through faster than others. "Funds for long term stay in Thailand" normally take 24 hours except during bank holidays. I am saving the KBank stuff for after my death when the funds can go straight into my wife's bank account at KBank. At this time, my pensions go to BKK bank to keep Immigration happy with my marriage income visa.
  18. Both my wife and I usually pay in cash except for the monthly bills and transferring funds to our son who is at Chiang Rai University, some 500km away.
  19. After the bulk of the crap is cleared away, a mop in very hot water and Dettol clears the rest and the smell away. The drawback is the lingering smell of Dettol. However, that is still a better smell than the crap that was there before it.
  20. But did it actually arrive at your personal account at the weekend. If I transfer from my Wise account in the UK, using my Wise borderless account and the "funds for long stay in Thailand" code to my Thai BKK Bank account, the funds will not arrive until Monday afternoon until after 2pm, or the next banking open day.
  21. So why doesn't he want to do another debate with Kamala Harris? On CNN and both of them to be fact checked. Tell the truth and you won't be fact checked, tell a lie or give false information and you will be fact checked. That applies to both sides. That is probably why Trump does not want the debate, especially as he will have no choice in the debate host and whether fact checkers will be doing their job. You can fool all of the people some of the time, some of the people all of the time, but you can't fool all of the people all of the time. A quote reputedly from a US President, Abraham Lincoln, now long dead. He was the first US President from the Republican party. That is what Trump and Vance, along with the gop are trying to do.
