Would be Assassin had biden/harris bumper sticker on his Truck in Hawaii
Your comment has so many implications.This is so important! “Naturally, we have the makings of a prosecutorial turf war” But it appears that the feds have rushed to lodge federal charges against Routh in hopes of getting the upper hand over their state counterparts”. I hope the Fla Gop AG won’t be intimidated by that Doj/ Fbi that is involved in the prosecution of Trump , who also are investigating. Andy McCarthy former US prosecutor had opinion piece that touches on this! https://nypost.com/2024/09/16/opinion/feds-shouldnt-fight-florida-on-trump-assassin-charges/ -

Today I met the first farang returning home because of exchange rate
I really hope you are right but there are far more arguments for a dollar decline these days. I think the main argument is not made by any one individual but rather by the sheer enormity of US debt of all kinds. The BRICS allianace seems disposed to break the dominance of the US Dollar as well. -

Health Supplements
BMI = Weight/Height squared. For me 73 / 1.75 x 1.75 = 23.83. So if I want it lowered, I must grow another couple of centimetres. 555 -

Damned law getting in the way of imprisoning Americans without the citizen Grand Jury indicting on the basis of evidence presented warranting a separate citizen Trial Jury listening to the prosecution evidence and the defense evidence being presented. I am sure we can get around this as soon as Trump is elected and Project 2025 is put into action! -

Moan, moan, moan. Anyone that dislikes it just book somewhere else if it bothers you that much, no one is forcing you to go to Thailand after all. -

5 Former Defence Secretaries Urge UK to Allow Ukraine to Use Long Range Missiles
What proof do you have with TRump saying he would give the Ukraine to Russia to appease them? I think you are spouting political garbage to make something against Trump. Show us all the links where he is quoted saying this. -

Post-2016 43THB is actually pretty good. I suspect the killer for many UK expats is the frozen pension. -

Tariffs and how Trump is a socialist.
Tariffs, another word for import/export tax. Usually used to protect local industries that might suffer from (unfair) competition by foreign compagnies. Tariffs in Trump world however are seen as income from said foreign competition. This is a false and rather stupid claim. Lets explain: I have a manufacture business and order some parts from China. The parts cost me $ 100,-- per piece. I then use this for my final products and that costs me $ 10,-- per piece. I have to pay distributor's $ 10,-- per piece and my margin is $ 30,-- per piece. You, the costumer are now paying $ 150,--. Simple right! Here come the tariffs: The guy from China is still charging me $ 100,-- per piece but now I have to pay $ 50,-- import tax. So now you, the consumer will have to pay $ 200,-- for the same product because my firm is not going to take the loss of import tax. Lucky for you, I still have a year worth of products in my warehouse so you won't yet feel the pain. However after 6 months my distributor starts to charge me $ 15,-- per piece because he's been hit by tariffs as well and just like me, he is not going to suffer. He will let me pay the price. So I up my price by not $ 5,-- but $ 15,-- . Why? Not all to much pieces left on the market so I figure I can up my price. After all it's a free market and I'm a capitalist. My warehouse is now empty, all prices have gone up because they all have been hit by tariffs. I calculate and now my product will cost you $ 275-- per piece. Voila, inflation. So why is Trump a socialist (as in the way European countries are)? Remember what he said about childcare and how that was just a little bit of money compared to all the "big" stuff? Remember how he said that tariffs are going to pay for it? What he was saying (without understanding it himself) was that tax (tariffs) were going to pay for it. That is exactly what European countries do ! You pay tax and get healthcare, child support and so on. Trump is a socialist. -

Heavy duty speaker stands in Thailand? Where to buy them or get them custom made?
There's some super heavy wooden planks - I think 18K/meter. That would be perfect to build a speaker enclosure/boxes. Very challenging but I can assure you it is very cool and nobody can afford real ones -

Yes and Winston Churchill was a Liberal and Adam Kinzinger is still a Republican. You're keeping up very well.- 1
