There's no arguing with you. Trump could get the whole of the Ukraine back, stab Putin on national TV and let Ukraine keep all it's resources and you'd say he was only doing it because he wants to be the new Tsar. You're a child. More than likely the other way around with trump. Attack Zelensky on ...

he couldn't do that though because they would release the Russian hooker pissing tapes from the 80's then From the 80s? How many tapes featuring Trump and pissing are there? I thought the point of the Pee Tapes was they featured Russian prostitutes peeing on the bed in the room Trump was in, not on...

Blimey, a big and probably welcome step taken by the EU when it comes to Orban. They had to do something, whether this proves the right decision in hindsight we'll have to wait and see.

Penal labor is permitted under the 13th Amendment to the U.S. Constitution, which prohibits slavery except as a punishment for a crime where the individual has been convicted.

You’re cheering for Russia, so this is good news, right? I’m hoping for peace towny. I’ve been very clear on what and even today spoke of the NATO minus the US as an option. But let’s be honest the idea of the EU army has just been shelled by the Italian statement. When you off there btw? How can y...

Is is correct that the US gets about 50% of it's fruit and 70% of it's vege from Mexico? All of which is about to have a Trump tax added to the price? I'd be willing to believe of the fruit and veg it imports 50% and 70% come from Mexico. Not so much it gets 70% of veg consumed from Mexico as they ...

We’ve got Angela “not a GCSE” on GMTV Now. She doesn’t seem well briefed.
Have you no job?
He doesn't. He is a househusband

He used to work in the City of London I believe but that all ended.

Still, even with no job, watching GMTV? Beyond the pale, and thick as mince into the bargain.

There are I suppose ways one could view it that might be akin to a Ponzi scheme, but given the man seems to like crypto you'd think that would only make him a fan

Except it's not a zero sum game because EV sales have increased enough for Tesla to keep their market share, in terms of absolute sales, if not percentage yet their absolute sales have halved and you think it's just normal market movement? :lol: Tesla aren't so much stagnating as shitting the bed. ...

It's not that everyone else grew and Tesla stayed stagnant. It's that everyone else grew and Tesla shrank. Massively. Nearly a 50% reduction. Tesla's pricepoint has dropped btw. Its a zero sum game. If people start buying newer EVs then they stop buying teslas. Of course tesla don't 'stay stagnant'...

One thing I will say it does rankle my tits a little bit that the US has spent over 120bn in aid to the Ukraine, while other democratic nations like New Zealand have spent 16 million, and somehow all of this is America's fault.

My take away from all this. Rodney is a WUM Bimbo is pathological contrarian. They are too intelligent to still be genuine Trump supporters.

I'm no fan of Russia, and I'm not that enamoured with Trump that I wouldn't be delighted if we can finish them off without him. I do think there's more to this war than Putin being a wit kant who wants to conquer Europe or reform the Soviet Union, and I do think there's a lot more to the NATO expan...

The pressing problem Trump will eventually face isn't Macron or Starmer or any other combo of euro and non-euro pollies, and it certainly isn't 'the turning tide of Western opinion' or any such happy horseshit.

He has stated that the collapse of the Soviet Union was "the greatest tragedy of the 20th Century " which, given the competition is quite the statement https://www.thecollector.com/vladimir-putin-russia-rebuilding-the-soviet-era/ So he’s never said he wants to rebuild the USSR.

What ratio of soldiers currently on the front line do you reckon are volunteers rather than conscripts? The volunteers died months or years ago.

The coal and steel group were absolutely a protectionist group, that much is true. Screwing over the US no, but protectionist defo.

2.5% on defence isn't going to cut it. I think it needs to go to cold war levels, this seems like a very different world now. Trump sees the world by bullying, finances and aggression.

I think Trump desperately wants a deal to re-coup some of the perceived US investment in the war...

2.5%, and actually 2.5% not reassigning overseas aid as did the Tories or intelligence as is happening under Labour, would perhaps be sufficient if one could trust in Nato.

No small part of this will be that's the third visit he's had in days where people have expected he turn up and listen to others. Macron and Starmer were enough, now Zelensky too, be fair, Trump is a tired old man who acted out having not had the naps he needed. Justice 4 Sleepy Orange Felons!
