He is Right...It is scary
Ahh...the history and views of Piers Morgan and U.S. politics involving Donald Trump. Per Wikipedia and others: --Morgan won the U.S. celebrity version of The Apprentice in 2008, where Trump called him "ruthless, arrogant, evil and obnoxious." https://www.gq-magazine.co.uk/article/gq-entertainment-donald-trump-interview-piers-morgan --Morgan, who's not eligible to vote in the U.S., said at the time that he wouldn't have voted for Trump in 2016, but still considered him a "good friend." --"In January 2018, Morgan presented President Trump – The Piers Morgan Interview for ITV,[133][134] which many thought of as "sycophantic" and a "love-in" for Trump.[135] Of respondents to a Radio Times Twitter poll, 88% viewed Morgan as being not "tough enough" on Trump." --In December 2018, Morgan wrote a letter to Trump formally applying to become White House Chief of Staff. https://fortune.com/2018/12/11/piers-morgan-trump-chief-of-staff/ --"In the aftermath of the January 6 United States Capitol attack, Morgan stated that Trump was "mentally unfit" to remain as president. He claimed that the pandemic and Trump's election loss that followed had "sent him nuts". In response to whether he regretted his support of Trump, Morgan said "No question. I never thought he was capable of this." https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Piers_Morgan#Donald_Trump https://www.independent.co.uk/arts-entertainment/tv/news/piers-morgan-donald-trump-good-morning-britain-b1785297.html Thus, take his presentations and choices of content on U.S. politics for just what they're worth.... -

Trump Harris: Who won the debate ?
Maybe the nature of the candidates where one speaks without facts, and another who is a scholar knows better between facts fiction and pure lies. -

Revisiting History: The Unlikely Campaign to Vilify Winston Churchill
And yet Churchill had close Jewish friends. Let me cite again this passage to you: Churchill was in Germany in 1932 doing some research on an ancestor of his. Someone offered to arrange for Churchill to meet Hitler. Churchill mentioned a few questions to ask Hitler in advance to prep for their meeting. I'll let Martin Gilbert take it from here... "Among them was the following question: “What is the sense of being against a man simply because of his birth? How can any man help how he is born?” This may seem a simple sentiment to us now, but how many people, distinguished people from Britain, the United States and other countries, who met or might have met Hitler, raised that question with him? So surprised, and possibly angered, was Hitler by this question that he declined to come to the hotel and see Churchill. FROM the moment that Hitler came to power, Churchill in his public speeches, and in his Parliamentary speeches, made it clear that the racial aspect of Nazism was a central concern. He always insisted on raising this issue, and pointing out the relevance to his listeners of the Nazi racial policies, and this he did again and again." https://winstonchurchill.org/the-life-of-churchill/war-leader/churchill-and-the-holocaust-the-possible-and-impossible/ Maybe this seems to you like sentiments that Hitler would share. Not so much to me. As for your prediction about what Hitler would and wouldn't have done...the man was an inveterate liar with an immense hunger for power. It seems dubious that he would have tolerated a British empire to exist. But you take a more benign view of Hitler's character. -

Thai Restaurant Industry Faces Crisis, Urges Government Action
Yes but Thailand opened the gates to Russian tourists, who have done a really good job so far at starting up businesses and contributing to the local economies. More than offsets the cheap Indians. Regarding the Chinese tourists you go to King Power on Rangnam Rd and its packed to the gills, those tourists throwing cash around like confetti. So Thailand wins some, loses some. Cant win em all buddy!! -

Trump Harris: Who won the debate ?
Total tripe. Anyone could see the supposed "moderators" ambushed only one candidate with their "fact checking". It was a clear effort to favour Harris and they took sides. Everybody could see it. Anyone who claims otherwise has not watched the debate or is taking the mick, or even worse. -

Trump's Wild Claims: The Truth Behind the Pet-Eating Conspiracy
My first trip to Thailand back in '82 I was up trekking in Golden Triangle. Some village couple guys had a dog dressed and splayed out for grilling. I politely declined joining them for dinner. Took a photo of scene, used for Xmas card that year (yeah, yeah, I know). No idea where photo gone over the years.... "all tastes are acquired" as my marketing professor pointed out.... -

Is the Tax compliance going to be linked to Visa issuance ?
That is probably correct There is no interpretation change in P161 it is a change in wording. The TRD doesn’t interpret the rules. It is absolutely speculation until the proposed wording is released. I am sure that the TRD has a good idea. No it isn’t! Do read the subject. You really don’t understand the way the regulations changes happen. in civilised countries (the USA is not one of those) you get at a minimum several months to years notice of changes. having just attended a meeting where a report of high level officials of the TRD and top accountancy firms had talks, the WW change will happen in 2026~2027~2028 the detail of the change is not yet clear, various influential groups are lobbying to amend the suggested change That just demonstrates that the USA is a third world country in that respect.- 1

Da Nang Hotels?
Coffee money to many people buddy. We cant assume the OP is skint. Nonsense. 10 min Grab bike ride at most. Yes there are annoying tourist clusters at the beach but thankfully the beach is huge and one can just sidestep that crap. Cops just doing their job buddy.... those kids probably didnt have their license or theyre wanted on some other charge. To the OP, dont worry about the cops, they do a fine job in VN and never hassle Westerners. Cheers buddy -
