In fairness, anyone claiming they will reduce energy prices and create jobs is going to garner some support. 

That was the problem with Harris. She was very light on policies

A master of diplomacy that lad. Still, fair play. He had the bollocks to ask Mr. Farage for help in building a relationship with the Don.

It's hardly "this shite", is it? 

It's a fact. 

We'll not hear any more about Epstein stuff and any Diddy related controversies for at least this next term. Another on top of that if he gets his way repealing the 22nd amendment. 

 

I'd love to not be arsed about the bat shit decisions Americans make in their political system, but unfortunately the vast swathes of uneducated midwest and southern Americans have enormous impact on NATO and EU security and trade, despite not having the faintest idea about it.

I go and visit my friends in America all the time and what people over here don’t realise is that 95% of Americans don’t have a passport. They’re not bothered about the rest of the world. If someone like Trump says he’s going to reduce energy prices and create jobs, even the male African Americans will vote for him. 

Yep, they don't see the need for the rest of the world, they talk about globalist liberals being bad for USA. So when Trump says he's going to impose tariffs and create jobs then he gains support.

The Democrats only have themselves to blame

First, for clinging onto Biden long after it was obvious he wasn't up to it, second for then anointing a truly dreadful candidate in his place

Agreed, they should have ditched Biden a long time ago, they did it so late, there was only Harris they could turn to

Looks like Trump’s closest advisors are Elon Musk and Dana White. It’s going to be an interesting time

FOX are currently talking about Musk having a high profile role in the new administration

Ukraine will be waiting nervously to see if Trump throws them under the bus.  

I think he will, and I hope he does, then we can also stop tipping billions of pounds in their direction

Whilst they don't all have a passport, it's a lot more than just 5% of them that do - it's something like 60% don't have a passport, which is still a large number  -  for balance 25% of UK citizens don't have a passport.

Yep if the rest ofnthe world is laughing/concerned they couldn't care less.

Wonder how many Russians or Chinese have passports?

If you think Putin will stop at Ukraine, you need your bumps feeling.

He's said he's going to impose tariffs, but also reduce inflation......I'm not sure you can do both at the same time, so it'll be interesting to see what he does with regards to this

I don't for one minute think he'll stop at Ukraine.

Anyway, we'll see what happens, but I don't think anybody would be surprised if the "peace deal" that he attempts to broker involved Russia keeping what they've got, a small demilitarized zone as a buffer and Ukraine having to just suck it up

You can talk as much common sense as you want mate. You’ll still be a ‘drama queen’ to the Trump supporters on here. It’s all they have to shut down the debate when people are pointing out he’s a mad man

Love the drama queen trope. Can you imagine the wailing/rioting if Trump had lost?

 

 

 

[deeane Koontz]

Trump is popular and his support was enthusiastic. Biden/Harris support was through gritted teeth. When you're not that popular and/or folk don't really know you in Harris' case you can't run a campaign solely on the basis of "Well, at least we're not them". Should have binned off damp chin yonks ago. Absolutely insane they left it until a few months before the election as he's clearly going/is senile. Failing to prepare is preparing to fail.

If that happened, serious question, how would that affect us in the UK? - surely you don't think he'd then mount an attack on us do you?

I'm sure China will "police" that particular alliance, as it's right on their doorstep. Trump reckons nobody dares to do anything whilst he's in power, so it'll be interesting to see if he can stop China going into Taiwan
