U.S. Politics

Trump's sexual history, his taped admissions of grabbing women without consent and the numerous allegations made in public against him are fair game.

The haters seem to ignore the fact that very wealthy men have no shortage of women wanting to jump in bed with them. Wealthy men have absolutely no reason to assault women. I don't see anyone accusing musicians of assaulting the groupies. There are many women who have a thing for men in prison, men who have done despicable things. The line is firmly drawn for pedophiles. They are not and should not be any leniency for those perverts.

youre missing the point , or refuse to see it. takes an arrogant blowhard to lecture another country on their policies. our immig is way overly lenient
i dont even need to look at stats to know the convoys of boats slowed after a firm line taken

Blimey. Why do you think that? Religious men such as priests used to think they were above the law but when the spotlight was turned on them, they appeared to be worse than the ordinary bloke.

A wealthy man might be a psychopathic narcissist. I'd expect such a person to have, being kind, conduct issues.

UT is crying out for your wisdom - please go back. It would be a win/win for both forums.

yes , its inconvenient having someone expose the
hypocrisy. or simply call for a fair debate on talking points. slag on as is your way spratt slag on

i once met a truck driver from nz who had gone to work in states. had nothing but good things to say
about how he was treated. OE he called it. many
others have gone to work a few years there. strangely , real americans they met decent people

[mech_401]

theres no winning . the 1st mistake we made was allowing millions upon millions to stream in illegally . some states giving them temp id's & driver cards

even now the flow at border 100,000 month its
not sustainable. how can aus be expected to
process a fraction of that amount. its ludicrous

[Doodoo]

Didnt I read just yesterday you highlighting words such as hopefully , maybe, etc and saying they are useless and you only deal with fact?

Now you are quoting the speech given by Mr Caruso and
"We also anticipate being able to retain the majority of the impacted store team members in other nearby locations."
Anticipate? I would think this is in the group

I think history will be very scathing when looking back on our policies regarding refugees.

It's nothing more than a reflection of the brutish, simple-minded, racist and xenophobic dolts they call citizens.
Not particularly unexpected -- Cronulla ad nauseam.

From the Wiki page on Chang:

"Shen Dingli, director of the Center for American Studies at Fudan University, wrote that Chang's predictions "collapse his own credibility."

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gordon_G._Chang

His book on the Coming Collapse of China was published in 2001. He also said the Chinese government would collapse in 2012 and 2016. I wouldn't put much weight on his analysis.

It would be great if China morphed into a better, more democratic and more responsible country that respected human rights. If Trump could help kick that along that would be a major legacy for him.

[GT93]

"Millions of Americans who did not like the president in 2016 now say they do. Donald J. Trump doesn’t always seem like a candidate focused on expanding his base of support. He may have done so anyway. The share of Americans who say they have a favorable view of him has increased significantly since the 2016 election."

It looks as if Trump is making the grade with more Americans than he once was.

Not sure what you're banging on about there. Trump wrestling to make the grade is our focus in this thread. You're all over the place.

[mech_401]

im saying the fake news media blitz that were all racist , neo nazis is fodder for simple minded.

for last twenty years at least , most everyone was
ambivalent about border problem. but then

as more and more refugees showed up demanding services, everyones just worn out

oh stop , pick a side any side , you cant waffle about forever? maybe some vitamins will help
that new spine grow in? its all so unmanly

[Lone Star]

actually , a few yanks came out and agreed it was time to ban guns. then a brit , unaware his own country has record #'s of acid attacks & knife
crime , wants to lecture on morality? please
talk about being in denial& focusing on others

The Hate America crowd inadvertently proves that it is indeed EVIL people who cause attacks and assaults, not the weapons themselves -- and certainly not guns.

Those who are 2nd Amendment proponents repeatedly point out that it is evil people who kill people. So when it's difficult to get firearms, EVIL resorts to other weapons. Some causing fatalities. Some only physical pain and disfigurement -- the acid attacks, knife attacks, autos and trucks to mow down people, and bombs become the weapons of choice.

Great wars that brought death and destruction throughout history -- long before firearms were invented -- used swords, spears, knives, bows and arrows, and other weapons fashioned of wood, metal, spikes, chains and the evil imaginations of evil men.

The vast majority of Americans are law-abiding. If you're afraid, don't go to America.
