Another case of I-don't-like-Trump-but. It's the way  crypto Trump supporters attempt to fool us into believing their neutrality.  You must be very exhausted having to strain so hard to find another interpretation for Trump's comments. How do you reconcile your interpretation with his following "truth" that he posted:

"UNPRECEDENTED FRAUD REQUIRES UNPRECEDENTED CURE!"

You keep going on and on, SHOUTING about this "unprecedented fraud." WHAT fraud? I asked you once already in this thread. I'll ask again - WHAT fraud?

 

Do you know something that only you, the "My Pillow Guy," and the disgraced former president are aware of, cuz the rest of the world has moved on about this. There WAS no fraud (except a few cases where Republicans got caught cheating).

No such thread appears to exist in World News.

 

How about fixing the site so that people like me, who came to Thailand to get away from this <deleted>, aren't made to view it?  The Topics sidebar is the root of all evil here.

 

I want to know about visa stuff, advance notice of no-beer days, and maybe general news re: Thailand if it isn't too gory.

You are NOT made to view it at all. You can look at the title of the thread BEFORE you open it, and if you don't think you want to read it, just skip the thread.

 

The choice is YOURS and yours alone to open the thread or not.

Placeholder is quoting Trump’s clamors of ‘unprecedented fraud’ which Trump posted in capitals.

Trump clearly has his eye on this case. He's dog whistling to his pet justices.

 

the Supreme Court will hear oral arguments on Wednesday that could lead to a ruling that would create chaos for decades and throw future elections into turmoil on a state-by-state basis.

At issue is Moore v. Harper, which could set the stage for the implementation of the “Independent State Legislature Theory” that would have a wide-ranging impact on federal elections by allowing state legislatures to manipulate voting districts even more than they are doing so now.

Ok got it now, so I'm dragging you into this topic or the sidebar navigation is ????

 

Well if that's the case at least read it from the beginning, that means clicking the link to the CNN website OP and discovering the full quote there already without the need to find it on archive although I note you seem to have the wherewithal to do that, so I find it hard to believe you cannot click the OP link.

Please don't feed the troll. Don't respond to any of his posts and even stick him on your ignore list.

The efforts to discipline attorneys who aided former President Donald Trump’s legal gambits to undermine the 2020 election take a major step forward Monday with the start of key disciplinary proceedings in Washington, DC, that will look into whether Rudy Giuliani violated attorney ethics rules.

 

A hearing committee for the Board on Professional Responsibility will hear testimony from witnesses – including from Giuliani himself – as it weighs whether the lawsuit the former New York City mayor brought on behalf of Trump’s 2020 campaign put him in violation of attorney ethics rules.

Anything that caused these candy assed liberals this much pain can't be all bad.

Noted:  You supported Trump for his entertainment value, not because he was in any way qualified to be President.

 

You are definitely no patriot.

A few questions:

 

Where are you from?

 

Do you know anything about U.S. history and government?

 

What countries are managing fine without a constitution?  Yeah, I know, the UK, but where else?

 

What do you propose replacing the U.S. Constitution with?  A dictatorship?

So your statement "Other Countries manage just fine without a constitution"  should have been "One country with a unique history of restraining monarchy and slowly evolving democracy has done reasonably well without a constitution."

 

Why do you think that is an endorsement of democracy without a constitution; i.e. democracy without rules?

Yes, you really need to tell me, and others, which successful countries have established democracies without constitutions.  Not a comprehensive list, just a few examples.  Otherwise it looks like you made something up and now realize you can't defend it.

How many Prime Ministers have you had in the last few months?  How's the economy doing?  How much does that monarchy cost the UK taxpayers?  Any parts of the UK trying to secede from the union?

We get rid of Prime misters if they aren't performing satisfactorily , maybe the USA should think about doing the same ?

  Economies  doing similar to many other Countries 

Don't know how much the monarchy costs and  few vociferous Scots wants independence , bit like some Californians

A "few" Scots want independence?  Maybe you should check your count.  I also haven't heard of any Californians who want to secede.  There are probably a few, but a trivial number relative to the population.

 

You might also look into things in Northern Ireland.  I understand the UK government is still trying to figure out how to keep NI in the union without abandoning Brexit.

 

Now about the democracy part; how many people in the UK voted for your last several Prime Ministers?  When can the UK voters count on having an election so the majority can have some say in the matter?

 

There are reasons why few countries want to copy the UK's unusual form of government.

 

I'm still waiting for examples of successful no-constitution democracies outside the UK.

The clown car is out in full force today.

 

We have a constitutional crisis because Joe Biden is not legitimate.

 

Trump 2024 campaign attorney Christina Bobb agreed that Biden was "absolutely not" a legitimate president.

"I think he was put forward to be a stooge, to be controlled by, you know, shadowy figures that didn't want their fingerprints or their names on certain things," Bobb opined.

I don't know either, you will have to ask else someone else 

The former president kicked off his latest attack on the press, writing, "The Fake News is actually trying to convince the American People that I said I wanted to 'terminate' the Constitution. This is simply more DISINFORMATION & LIES, just like RUSSIA, RUSSIA, RUSSIA, and all of their other HOAXES & SCAMS."

The sort of chaos Bannon was reaching for.  AZ was his target for stirring it up, but his plan dried up when Cochise county certified the election result.  Alito and Clarence have been disgraced as corrupt and liars -- they should be shown the door, and if not that then dissolve  the Supreme Court.  No good will come of this court in it's present state, the rot became permeable when McConnell hijacked the appointment process.

So you've gone from the radical suggestion that the US should do without its constitution, to implying that I should know what countries have successful democracies without constitutions, to acknowledging you don't know the basics of what you are posting about. 

 

That's worth remembering when reading your future posts.
