Spot on. I had a METV in late 2019, and the female IO was about to give me trouble upon my last entry, looked to the side to her supervisor, then stamped me in. Later I had problems at both Bangkok airports, and due to this and the pandemic went the agent route. Obviously, that is what they want...
Nothing surprises me anymore about the bizarre left wing Democrats. You observe their socialist behavior and you think, OK, now they have maxed out on their insanity and the needle is pegged on the absurd. But then something even more demented comes along and the insanity meter needs to be re-calibrated.
What makes you think I’m in A Pattaya bar? Itag? , Surveillance cameras or secret agents?
And where were you fortunate enough to find your pot of gold of individuals of your caliber and fortunate to be graced by your presence?
I can only imagine.
Right then, Lewie mate, listen here. I ain't sayin' ol’ Trump’s the Messiah or nowt, but come off it—ya makin’ him out like he’s some drunken yob flailin’ round the market square with no plan in sight. But what you ain't gettin’, right, is that sometimes you gotta rattle the cage a bit to let folks know you ain't a mug.
Yeah, tariffs were slapped down hard, fair play, but it weren’t about keepin’ 'em forever. It was about lettin’ China know we ain’t just gonna sit there gettin’ bent over every trade deal like it’s karaoke night at the G7. Trump don’t do quiet diplomacy. He does loud, messy, smash-a-pint-glass diplomacy—and sometimes that’s exactly what gets people payin’ attention.
You moanin’ about how tariffs got dropped back down—but how d’you reckon they got to that point, eh? They didn’t just wake up in Beijing one day and go, “You know what, lads, let’s be fair to the Yanks.” Nah, they blinked. Trump forced their hand. It’s like pokin’ a pit bull till it stops barkin’ and actually sits. Not pretty, but it bloody worked.
And don’t start on “no factories got built.” That’s codswallop. Loads of manufacturers started thinkin’ twice about keepin’ everything over in China. Some jobs did come back. Ain’t gonna turn back four decades of offshorin’ in four years, is it? He ain’t Harry Potter.
And your saveloy mate in the queue—bet he’s got more clue than you think. Least he ain’t cheerin’ for a system that had us bent over a barrel for years. Better to try and make a point—even if it’s loud and messy—than just smile while gettin’ fleeced.
So yeah, call it a pub brawl if ya like. But sometimes you need a bit of a dust-up before both sides realise they’d rather have a pint and sort things out. Least Trump had the stones to throw the first punch, instead of just standin’ there singin’ Kumbaya with his trousers round his ankles.
You ever thought maybe the reason he gets up your nose so much is 'cause he actually did something? Go on then, who’d you have preferred? Someone who just keeps lickin’ China’s boots and hopin’ for a discount on iPhones?
