  1. At one time they were termed US forward bases there to protect the USA. It is about time all US forces were removed from Europe and their bases closed.
  2. The only people who understand less about trade deficits than Trump are the MAGA morons who voted for him
  3. As a non American is seems as though Trump is ruling more like a dictator with all his executive orders. Not something I would of expected or even imagined possible for a President of the USA.
  4. Thanks for that. Appreciate it.
  5. Serious question for our American friends who has the most power Congress, The House of Representatives The Senate or The President and could the President be removed stopped or overruled.
  6. I just had my Covid booster on Saturday and last time I checked I was still alive.
  7. Not to worry when everyone sees their 401k's evaporating big price rises on just about everything and unemployment rising the KKK will ride to the rescue torches blazing and hang him from the top of Trump Tower. On the other hand what just might happen is the Reps will be decimated in both the Senate and the House and Trump will be removed and tried for Treason. Or Trump will revive the great American industry with a new line of MAGA merchandise that will sell all over the world and he will have billions of new converts.
  8. The GOP needs to grow some balls and reign him in before he does irreparable damage so far he's been reigning like a king with his executive orders.
  9. Most likely other countries will take a sensible approach and counter with targeted tariffs that will maximise the damaging effect on the US while minimising the effects on their own citizens and economy. Everything that the US imports is now a minimum of 10% more expensive some are nearly 100%.
  10. When Americans realise the affect these tariffs are going to have on their pockets they just might drag him out of the White House and Lynch him. A 50% tariff on a country doesn't mean that country pays 50% it means the American consumer pays the 50% and the 50% ends up in Trumps pocket Treasury.
  11. The best way to predict the future is to study the past. Trump is repeating the policies of the 1930's not a particularly good idea. I've just looked according to Trump the UK imposes 20% tariffs on goods from America that is a lie. What he is refering to is the 20% VAT that is in effect a sales tax that is imposed on just about everything sold in the Uk no matter where it originates from even domestically produced. The EU has VAT as well Trump is obviously not being truthful with the figures or he's too thick to understand which I doubt, more like he's playing to the MAGA faithful and those either too stupid to understand or just accept everything he says as gospel When other countries retaliate and impose their own tariffs things are going to get very expensive in America of course that also means a lot more money going to the treasury collected from ordinary Americans that are paying the higher tariff prices. The result of all that will enable Trump to give massive tax breaks to the millionaires and billionaires that bankrolled him.
  12. Trump has effectively just declared economic war on the world. I would hate to be an American right now.
  13. I still have the memories though even those are fading nowadays I would struggle to even climb the stairs.
  14. European defence stocks are way up one example Rheinmetall up 119%. Then there’s Rolls-Royce Holdings (UK) Thales Group (France) Leonardo (Italy) Saab (Sweden) BAE Systems (UK) all up - the main question to ask is have they peaked.
  15. Or a snake they eat rats bugs and lizards too and they're more lovable they like nothing more than sneaking into bed with you at night.
  16. If all else fails you could always go out and shout "DONT YOU KNOW I'M AN AMERICAN" That usually has the desired affect.
  17. I suspect the UK will rejoin the EU maybe not in my lifetime but as time goes on it will become more and more advantageous and then they will be forced to adopt the Euro. So far Brexit seems to have mainly had negative consequences with very few if any positives. A lot of people were conned by Farage and Johnson bears a striking resemblance to Trump.
  18. It was Trump who got rid of the agreement with Iran in the first place now he's giving them 2 months to agree to a new one the fact is Trump is a dangerous idiot. How about instead of threatening Iran giving the something in return like removing sanctions and getting rid of the nuclear weapons held by Israel.
  19. It doesn't matter how big a military a country has or how safe that makes them feel. A nuclear bomb doesn't need a missile or plane to deliver it it could fit in the trunk of a car or be hidden in a container of anything you care to mention or for that matter a small tactical nuclear warhead big enough to take out the white House and half of Washington at the same time could even fit in a backpack. Then the winds would spread the radiation fallout further afield. Just imagine if some terrorist group planted nuclear devices in half a dozen US cities and detonated them all at the same time.
  20. He decided to attack Heathrow power infrastructure instead
  21. Trumps Gold Card will enable Putin to plant hundreds of KGB in the USA.
  22. Great bring back the serving wenches in their skimpy Chang & Leo dresses.
  23. I don't see anything wrong with him offering her a bed as long as long he wasn't in it as well. If he was good luck to him and I hope he rose to the occasion.
