US political crisis

[lockinlove]

I called Kate Middleton (Princess of Wales) this morning and Wills fobbed me off saying she had just popped out for a bag of coal

haha. Good ol Kate. Been awhile since we had tea together!




Its not too little too late at all. Still got a couple months to go. A lot can change in just a week. He was president for 4 years and been in the public eye already. People know what they are getting. His job is to expose the nutjobs over the next couple of months without him coming across as one himself.

Narcissist vs financial ruin? raging wars? Insane spending? Going after our kids?

If he can do it right, it should be pretty easy.

Meh. I had to block her on facebook. She started off by wanting advice on fashion and making public appearances but it soon degenerated into her making inappropriate comments and suggestions.
She had to go!

Maybe folk are fed up of having an old president who may not make a full term?
What he needs is a wheelchair. That could garner some sympathy votes?

I don't keep up with US politics on the reg, but have been listening to Nick Fuentes for the run down on the latest Iran and Israel tension, and he's mostly been ripping into the Trump campaign for the past week or two.
He suggests that most of the people on trumps campaign are people who, at some point not too long ago, went from supporting Don to completely shitting on Don and throwing him under the bus.
is that true? Did the Don decide to hire people who had previously thrown him under the bus, to run his campaign?

trying....... hard....not.....to...ho....

I think there where a lot of people in place that he had no say over and they where not republicans. Then there where those who where rhinos. As he is not a politician he took advice from those he would have been better off not listening too.
As far as I understand the rich back both sides in order to avoid shitting on their own shoes.
Israelis/Jews are littered throughout both sides of american politics and big buisness so its hard to avoid having to except that

I wouldnt be surprised. He's pretty arrogant and seems to go off his own beliefs and way to do things. So I imagine a lot of people take offense to that and off they go to do an interview on CNN knowing they will eat that stuff up.

Plus a lot of people he has fired he considers to be the deepstate inbedded in politics far too long so same thing, they run to CNN and trash him. John Bolton being about the worst of them all.

 

[geordiecolin]

The EU and UK seem to be secretly engaged to be married still. Warning Musk to stay clear of mentioning unrest in the UK and its causes.

 

[geordiecolin]

The EU are still vexed that Elon did not give into their bribes of censoring content or be punished like the other sites gave into.

 

[TheAddict]

Sure it's a threat? Lot of kisses in that letter.
also, fuck the EU.

 

[ChopleyIOM]

You know Twitter complies with more government censorship requests now than it did before Elon took over? (As both an outright number, and as a proportion of requests made.)

 

[lockinlove]

The good thing about Elon is that he stands up for what he believes in and refuses to be bought by anyone. At the end when he says Bob. Thats the guy who owns Disney who is super woke and demands Elon operate a certain way or else he wont advertise there.

Whether you are right or left, everyone should appreciate him. He is good for the world in more ways than one.

His response to that letter:

I've no idea about the statistics before and since he took over. I only started using it maybe 6 months ago. But I hope he ignores their threats

 

[lockinlove]

Here is a perfect example of what the media does. Writes stories in specific wording depending on who the story is about. Negative sentiment for Trump. Positive sentiment for Kamala. Same topic.

It was this sort of behaviour, alongside the huge lies about his past, the abuses of power he used plus the media and three letter agencies cover ups of the laptops that made me detest him 4 years ago. And the fact that folk where prepared to ignore it all
And Nancy wants him on mount rushmore

I like both of them quite a bit. Tucker is a righty so he pushes his agenda a bit much but whatever. Elon Im pretty much a fan of everything Elon. I even love his cars and bought one. He also made me money when I bought twitter stock. Rumors were he was going to buy it out so I bought it in the $30's. He bought it and each share was worth $54.

Hoping his tesla stock tanks down to around $150 so I can buy some of that too. I meant to buy some a few weeks ago when it was tanking but I was busy and forgot. Damn it.

Do you have any concerns about BRICS currency crashing the American/global economy?

Anyhoo I can see myself staying up to watch them. It and my crispy bacon sammich I'm just about to have will probably give me indigestion.

Yes. Im concerned about a lot if the left is allowed to continue to run things. World wars, financial system collapse, household debt. They are a disaster. The left has gone full retard. Full.

 

[lockinlove]

The party of pedophiles strike again.

Too expensive to protect children from pedos but perfectly fine spending that money on housing illegals.

The left needs a cleaning. Kick them all out, arrest them and start over

 

[lockinlove]

OK we need to find the people who are paying and/or forcing US politicians to destroy the country? Pretty clear the lefties are all bought. Saying this out loud with confidence? huh? lol

 

[TheAddict]

Sit back. pour a beer. watch the destruction of White civilization.
it's all you can do, bigot.

 

[TheAddict]

Got on a bus last week. cars fucked.
counted the White / none whites boarding the bus.
2/18 Whites boarded, before i walked off.
get evil eyes from some whale white woman.
Just another day in the UK.

 

[lockinlove]

Im not sure why or whose agenda it is to replace country folk. If you go in a walmart in Brampton or anywhere south really there are zero white people.

We had a hockey thing last month and we had to run in. I would say about 300 muslims and 3 white people which were us. I am not being dramatic.

Again, no issue with legal immigration that is controlled but importing 6 million indians in 2 years in Canada is outrageous. Our population went from like 32 million to 40 million in a couple years and 98% is from liberal immigration/muslims/Indians

And the weird thing is, Indians are always saying to us things like "I have 8 children, you have 2. Soon Canada will be all Indians and we will kick you out"

I personally have heard this conversation a dozen times or more.

Why? Why are they here if they hate us? I dont get it. I figured liberals buying votes..but seems hateful

 

[geordiecolin]

Oi, oi, oi Elon, Trump, Keep it down!

 

[TheAddict]

I never liked the c**t. But I admire the audacity.

 

[TheAddict]

Also, if anyone happens to know a loud mouthed somali living in somalia. Tell them to tell the somali women in the uk to stop ringing them and talking loud in somali language, while on the fucking bus.
fanks.

I'm always interested in price comparisons with the uk, assuming £ to $ is about 1.2, then the price of those 4 tomatoes sticks out, unless perhaps they're really big. 4 here is around £1, kind of satsuma size.

Also the potatoes, that's about 1.5kg, which would cost about £1 to 1.50, half that price of $4.49.

Butter is around £1.70 for 250g, so that $5.49 for 454g looks high.

I've always assumed food in the US was cheaper than the uk, as it was all homegrown and they were really into high yield farming.

 

[The Dude]

Do you remember when democrats were against wars? They were extremely anti-war. No matter what, there could be no war.

You mean like Vietnam, WWII and Korea? All conducted/initiated during a democratic administration.

That is a very simple and inaccurate statement.

 

[The Dude]

By the way - I know a lot of you are all riled up over the posturing of both candidates in the States - I get it, certain things push certain buttons. But I am making a pre-emptive strike of what I am seeing are racist comments.

Here's a cheery reminder: Don't!

And another reminder: you, me, everyone you know are technically Africans. Homo Sapiens have been around for only about 300,000 years ALL IN AFRICA, and it was only about 70,000 years ago the first tribes that survived the trip migrated north to the middle east. So all of the Europeans, Indians, Asians, indigenous Australians and Americans have only been around for about 20% of the time. If you are not black, that is you.

So historically, all you whiteys have only been like this for 20% of the history of human beings. if you're telling Africans to go home where they came from, you should pack your bags as well. And then eff off.

Sadly this thread has turned into one big echo chamber. The discussion should have been moved to 4chan/8chan/X/Truth Social or r/Conservative where it belongs. This is a gambling forum ffs.

So to steer things back towards gambling for a minute:

Funny then how they find in N. Europe stone tools dated up to 500,000 years ago.

I love it when that old trope gets wheeled out. It's absolutely meaningless in modern terms, about as relevant as saying a swan, sparrow and a flamingo were all once linked to the pterodactyl. Evolution is a dynamic practical arrangement of nature and survival, related to a being's environment, hence the variations that occur in the relatively short term. Old history to present evolution, which is learning from today to survive the species until tomorrow.

And way before that we were all related to fish, hence the fact we still have a collar bone. That's a legacy from the ocean days.

Plus the Neanderthals clearly survived in N. Europe, as you can see every day in Westminster.

If any 'liberal' man (talking pro immigration here, votes left and progressive etc) has a wife or daughter, and they suddenly declare they're going into london to experience the nightlife/theatre and will come home on the tube then train, their reaction 9/10 will be instant alarm.

Could be Manchester or Birmingham, there'll be the same reaction, if they are mad enough to not protest vehemently against such an idea, then they will insist on mobile phone updates.

Around the time of John Smith being the labour leader, I was becoming a bit left, because the country under the tories was getting worse (compared to the 80s, there was a definite decline) I started to lose interest when Smith died, and was meh by the time blair won in 97.

My reason for mentioning this is because I understand the contradictory nature of being a leftie, convincing yourself of things and getting hurt and angry on behalf of others who you perceive as less well off, but then in day to day life still making decisions that take account of race/background realities.

You're not colour blind, stop kidding yourself. (Although it goes beyond just colour, into religion and differences in general to yourself).

And the very fact you feel the need to argue their case and focus on it instead of other issues (through party politics etc) is because you believe they can't do it sufficiently themselves, need the educated liberal's help, otherwise why not just let them do it for themselves rather than try to speak on their behalf?

 

[lockinlove]

You mean like Vietnam, WWII and Korea? All conducted/initiated during a democratic administration.

That is a very simple and inaccurate statement.

Read up on eisenhower/Truman, Hubert Humphrey etc. There was a time where democrats ran on ending every war and to never engage in wars in the future unless it was absolutely necessary. Their proposed policies and bills were all anti-war.

Also 1968 (Democratic National Convention) in regards to the vietnam war. (

You do not have permission to view link Log in or register now.

)

Also, World war 2 doesnt really count as it was an absolute.

There has actually been history books written about the antiwar movement and the Democratic Party

Also, read about post 9/11 between 2002-2006. There was mass movement between activists and democratic party.

You're american but you are also an old man now. You should remember these things but the memory is fading?



So while not 100% of the democratic party has been anti-war in the past, a good portion was and always fought against it. The republicans seemed to never really bother.

It used to be and should be but the politcians and their energy policy is crushing grocery prices.

If you think about it this way, direct energy policies affect everything. Gas goes up. Grocery stores have to raise their prices to cover the extra shipping to their stores by fueled trucks.

Those prices get put onto the customer. That takes money out of the persons paycheck/savings/money for bills. Plus extra fuel costs to go to the grocery store.

Vicious circle.

Biden undid Trumps policies out of spite.

He paused oil and gas leasing and drilling permits. Banned drilling in certain areas. He banned about 15 various things that directly harm fuel prices

Plus the oil industry has paid billions of dollars in dividends to their CEO's instead of using that for future oil production. Biden was asked to step in and help and he refused and went to Saudi instead begging for oil.

Take it for what it is. A gambling forum. Nothing wrong with taking a break from daily life and hopping on here and talking about the things that piss you off. I cant do it at work and dont choose to use my free time at home discussing it. Thats why forums work. It gives people a place to blow off steam and have a chat.

I wasted time back in the Harry BKK days though. You get caught up sometimes. Just make sure you dont and it makes everything a lot more enjoyable lol

Nobody in here is going to change a damn thing or change anyones mind. I dont expect Chopley and his wife to stop screaming at the sky or wear MAGA shirts and hats because of what ive said .

I am pretty relaxed about this upcoming election. Kamala has no corruption, lies, dodgy laptop, sexual inappropriateness hanging over her so as long as its a fair election then fair enough. I think there should be an age restriction on running but at least Trump intends to stop the war in Ukraine (though sadly not Gaza)

The issue of immigration should be solely about the numbers and their effects on the population and the legality of the individuals and not on colour or religion. How to address those issues is what the UK government are not doing. Getting groups and professionals together and using the same determination that has been shown to round up and lock up anyone who said hurty words and calling everyone right wing extremists and find a fix. Most of who probably have never voted right wing in their lives

While she isnt quite as dirty in that sense she has done some pretty ridiculous things that people wont like.

She smoked weed in college but then became prosecutor and jailed people for smoking weed in college. For very long periods of time. Also, race baiting by saying she did it because she was Jamaican and it's bred inside of her.

Even her father called her out for the racist comments.

Jailed single mothers who were broke when their kids missed school

refused to charge or imprison bankers after their crimes in 2008

Fought against releasing non violent offenders from over crowded jails.

Surpressed evidence in child rape cases

Had an affair with Willie Brown to advance her career

She extended prison sentences so the state could get more cheap labor for as long as they could

She wouldnt investigate or prosecute the catholic church for sexual abuse against children because they were one of the cities most powerful political instituitions.

So I guess your every day dirty politician.

You just dont hear about this stuff because the media is Liberal owned.

I have read about all of the above. But how can an American be so patriotic about their country dominating world events and acting as if they where the worlds police while at the same time be totally dominated by another country and acting like that countries biatch no matter how much peril and danger they put America and its people in?
Here is Trump almost begging that country to allow him to be president again.

I would like to see a Sanders or even MTG be given a shot at it.

 

[ChopleyIOM]

This rambling crap bullshit is not going to win Trump the presidency.

 

[ChopleyIOM]
