Re: POTUS-DONALD TRUMP-and U.S. Politics catch-all

He wouldn't confuse them would he? Mick only knows what Sean Hannity told him to say. He’s the dumbes...

Re: POTUS-DONALD TRUMP-and U.S. Politics catch-all

If Biden wins he will be a one term president. I think that much is certain. And with all due respect to Joe, he's not a good candidate but this presidential election is really a referendum on another Trump term. We know the majority are sick of him, but are the majority in the states that matter? ...

Standard.
Free school dinners sounds like a great idea but kids wouldn't be reliant on them in a first world country.

Are free school dinners the norm elsewhere?
Sweden - yes
Australia - dinners? You’ll get a pie and it ain’t free.
