Trump lied 22 times in his acceptance speech.
Wrong again, poor man, as Wikipedia is not considered mainstream media, in fact it is an online encyclopaedia and to add to your enlightenment, "Newspapers, television news networks, cable news, and radio are generally considered mainstream media outlets". I am capable of clear and concise thinking, having started a successful investment division of just under $2 billion, for a major bank, and managing over 40+ staff and thousands of customers, but what I am not, is a supporter of a compulsive liar, thief and felon. Anyway I'm done arguing with a conspiracy theorist and trump cult follower, so from now on, I shall put you on ignore, although I have to say that posts like yours do confirm that a lot of trump supporters are the very kind that he prefers (do your research on that!). -

Trump to scared for debate with Harris
Exactly! Donald, Donald, you are making a huge mistake not 'debating'! Do the very same thing you did in the first 'debate' with Biden! Like the first 'debate', don't even think about actually debating--way, way, way above your skillset, buddy. Instead, like the first 'debate', simply regurgitate big, smelly chunks of your campaign speech with every question asked of you. Remember your answer to the chlld care question in the first 'debate'? Do the same thing! No studying needed! No facts needed! No statistics needed! Even lazy, brain-addled you can do this! As Captain Monday says, 'Just spew a load of codswallop (witn no fact checking), and avoid every question.' What could be easier? It's what you live and breathe. Like the first 'debate', your great unwashed, who have all lost any reasoning they might have ever had, will eat it up with a big spoon. Donald, Donald, Donald, who in their right mind turns down free prime-time tv exposure in a presidential campaign??? (But, speaking as a Democrat, thank god you are an idiot. However, I still can't believe even you can be that dumb--I sense a dirty trick lurking somewhere.) -

I do agree with that. But, not just America. Gen Z is a very scary group of folks. I can't imagine 20 years from now, when they are in positions of leadership and influence. I do consider them to be the weakest generation in the history of mankind. -

Thaksin Says He's Too Old to Run for PM Again at 75
A good age to retire is when you realise that someone can do the things you you want done better than you. "I hope you did not suffer too much because of this age thing with President Joe Biden. " I appreciate your concern about my suffering. but the amount of suffering remains to be determined in November. "(can you read between the lines)? " Whether I can reed between the lines is dependent on the writing and not my reading skills. -

Trump's pick of JD Vance a hopefully fatal mistake for his maga fascist movement
Nope, the lower castes will not be impressed with her. And the Brahmins are only 1% of the population. It is not a great demographic to try and attract. -

Harris Challenges Trump Over Debate Commitment, Accuses Him of Backpedaling
Reading most of the comments, I can say, You Americans truly deserve who ever is voted in as President. There is no discussion about policy and what would be good for America. It is all about hate, hate for Trump or hate for Harris. You have been played by the elites and you can't see it. America is truly disappearing up it's own backside. The world is laughing at you all.- 1

Thwarted why use expensive words... we aren't all natives I am still surprised this does not happen 10x a day but let in more people visa free, some that live in our home countries, where stealing is ok, but in their own home country, they cut off a limb , maybe we will get to multiple daily reports... -

BREAKING NEWS 60-day visa exemptions are now unlimited at land borders
Unlikely IMHO - or if there are some its a VERY SMALL number. Most of us are hoping it does get easier to stay in Thailand for those who don't meet the marriage or retirement or elite visa status. That IMHO is one of the good things about Thailand, in that there are many different types of Visas, where some Visas are more suitable than other visas for the different personal and financial status of various individuals who wish to spend time (and money) in Thailand. It makes little sence IMHO to rain on someone else's parade. So while I have an LTR visa, I am happy to see these new Visa implementations make it easier for many to come to Thailand. . -

Wise card - can you get it sent to Thailand?
You can hold THB in your account that has been exchanged at the Wise rate a time of your choosing so when you use the card you are spending Thai baht. With foreign cards the transaction will be converted at an exchange rate determined by the card issuer at the time, and in some cases like the UK, there is also a Non Sterling Transaction Fee on top. I have found it much more useful than my UK bank card, a real godsend when travelling. I went to Germany a few weeks back, just loaded the card with some Euros and used contactless, saves a great deal of the hassle with physical currency. You have to bear in mind however it is a debit card as opposed to a credit card. -

Harris Challenges Trump Over Debate Commitment, Accuses Him of Backpedaling
This makes him one of the greatest charlatans of all time. And that is his greatest strength. Getting his followers to buy the nonsense and drink the kool-aid. He is a genius. As a huckster and scam artist. Otherwise, he is plagued with that low IQ of around 88.- 1
