  1. Pitiful comment. You are clearly unaware that Trump blocked Chinese mining and airport plans last time round. Do some basic research before beclowning yourself.
  2. Got to say, people don't have a clue of the incoming meltdown. The number of wealthy people I know cashing out and moving abroad is astronomical.
  3. When that trial kicks off you'd need to move to a cave to avoid the fallout.
  4. The OP is clearly trolling as no one can be this stupid, and that goes for the rest of you agreeing with him. China has a clear indebt and control strategy. Sri Lanka lost its primary shipping port to China for 99 years when they failed to repay a debt. China has already proposed building two airports in Greenland. As pointed out by others it would be easy for China to enrich the sparse population. Enrich then control. Unbelievably Denmark encouraged Chinese investment in the airports. Tell me, which one of you clowns wants China to control an airport that can strike Europe and North America? The USA doesn't and Trump killed the notion stone dead last time. Denmark has announced $1.5 billion for Greenland defence, a contribution to Arctic and NATO security. They even admitted that they had neglected their responsibilities and realized that the USA would never allow Russia or China to gain military access to the island. They know if that was a possibility any US President would annex the place. So this is already a win for Trump. It cost him nothing to warn the Danes they better get their act together. And you can look forward to annual exercises at the newly funded airport by USAF as its being expanded specifically to handle NATO fighter jets at Danish expense. Trump might well do something stupid in the next four years. This is not it. .
  5. Read the whole link. It clearly states the CRS figure of 40%. Also, I posted that link yesterday. The point is moot anyway - Musk said "if." Coherence seems to be the new word of this thread. What an absolute meltdown over nothing.
  6. Going back to the topic. The real rage was the appearance of AI at a critical time. Business as usual was blown out of the water as the American public saw where the money was heading. Congress has now become more accountable and the Dems throwing a toddler tantrum better wake up.
  7. You need to be deliberately obtuse to state that the Dems are not the party of big business and mega donors when even their fundraisers are putting the boot in. Kamala Harris is finished. You guys replaying the election are morons ( to use your rhetoric ). Stating Musk torpedoed a bill is also moronic. You guys are dropping into cuckoo's nest territory with this inane river of drivel. Give it up, go for a walk, get a life.
  8. You are grasping at straws. You said the bill did not refer to a 40% pay rise. It did. You are factually wrong. And it wasn't the 40% issue that wrecked the bill. Multiple other issues were uncovered.
  9. Democrat fundraiser quit the party after watching it blow $2.5 billion of donated money. She's now being called a wh're and c"nt as well as a Chinese spy for asking questions about financial prolifligacy. Tell us again about incoherence?
  10. Wrong. The bill did mention 40% as being the rise required to cover historical raises not granted. It then went on to say 4% was the proposed amount. You can't be bothered doing the basic research, can you?
  11. The bottom line is that Trump is not yet the President. The next Congress will have more Trump loyalists. JD Vance is the one to watch.
  12. Interesting to see people cracking up about normal American politics. It's far from the first time bills had to be adjusted and subjected to a re-vote. So the answer to the question is "bipartisan." Bipartisan bills, who knew such a thing existed, eh? .
  13. There's deep irritation at the Chinese putting Thais out of business. This is a relatively recent development and will cause ( has caused ) a backlash. Some farangs are being caught in the net but the real target is the Chinese.
