I am not complaining at all, just stating the obvious 

Its obvious to all here that you are just a Putin soundbite.

Of course not, it's just more profits for the retailers. Based on the article 10% discounts to the most expensive wine in the world but they're getting away with 50% excise.

I expected nothing less than this, they already know the suckers will pay for it.

 

The only thing that will change it would be a new chain of wine shops that charges a reasonable mark up that would force the prices down everywhere else. Maybe that happens in the end

 

Indeed, seems to me the article is a load of made up BS

I have not seen a price reduction at all?

"It is recognized, of course, that the word "day" can be used with a number of variations. It can have any of five meanings: 1) a period of light; 2) a period of 24 hours; 3) a general, vague time; 4) a point of time; 5) a year.2 The context determines which of these is intended by the writer. "

Can we agree Trump was using it as per point 3) ?

 

Try though you do to make MAGA an insult with your cute magaman, it literally means to make America great again. Not possible to use as an insult, unlike the anagrams that send the afflicted scurrying to the report button.😅

Dude a day is day no matter what alternative reality Magaman lives in. Also he claimed again and again he would stop the war even before his inauguration. This happened yet?

These people have no solutions. Their pathetic lives revolve around bitching about Trump. 

These people are not in office, your live resolves about bitching us bitching.

So, what do you suggest; what is your solution?

Asking me 5 times? Why me? I'm not a world leader like Trump pretends to be and I did not make those claims.

Trump deciding it's an European thing after he failed to make just a millimetre of progress on the war in Ukraine.

How many more failures can Magaman accept?

Anyone who has ever been in high $$ sales knows how much business is transacted on the golf course. 

 

The President of my Fortune 500 company would fly in on the days I could snag a golf day with a good customer.  It was that productive.  5 hours, one on one.

 

 

It's not a business he's running, if it where it would be bankrupt by now.

And the plan would be? 

 

Zelensky's still stuck on returning Donbass AND Crimea.  Not going to happen. 

 

Any cease fire would benefit him.  Putin isn't having it.  Not until Zelensky gets real.

 

So you're Russian? That is the other nation now despised by most.

Lot of context missing here.  Putin doesn't want a temporary cease fire because that just gives Zelensky a breather to recover, regroup and rearm. 

 

Which would be stupid on Russia's part to grant them.  Putin's not stupid.

 

 

Peace ! We are talking about ending the war not a cease fire. Talking about context.

Same as waste paper baskets on or near the beaches. Phuket has nothing a "top" designation should have.

Typical dictator stuff.
