Inclined to agree.
Since 2016 the media coverage of US politics here was extraordinary, relentless, and baffling.

Can anyone give me a reason why I should give a toss about America,Trump,Biden et al.Unless you live in the USA I can't understand why people get concerned.I've never given a toss during my previous 68 years and I don't intend to start now.I'm not very wise politically and do not intend to waste any of my time worrying about a country 3'000 odd miles away.As far as I can tell they don't and will not impinge on my life.
And, yet, here you are posting in a U.S.A. thread...

Just like the good Canadian you are! :x

I dig you man (we have met each other too), but, I must admit, I sure would like to have lunch with Karearea. She'd shut me the **** up, I am sure! ;)))

In fact BBC England seemed to split the news between Trump and Wee Jimmy and when she banned him from coming to Jockistan they practically creamed themselves.

I am concerned because a great nation is being destroyed. It is also a mere few kilometers away from where I am. I also have many fiends who are there. I went to school with them.

However it is not I who is saying I shouldn't be here or give a toss, it is ribrash, and yet he is here. That is the part that is not clear. Why?

Apple CEO Tim Cook once gave President Trump a $5,999 Mac Pro

Even so, someone would have have had to help Trump access his preferred porn sites. :-o :)) :ymdevil:

Majorie Taylor Greene is an interesting lady.....

No don't get me wrong I am no great supporter of the Clintons by any stretch of the imagination...

...But I am reasonably certain they are not Satanic worshiping cultists running an international child abuse ring out of a Chicago Pizza shop..

Happy to be proved otherwise of course...

She is a total whack job. At least the fact that she is in the House of Representatives and a first them rep., at that, dilutes her
effects somewhat. ~X( [-X :-q
The fact that Kerry Loeffler was not reelected to the Senate is more of a bright spot. #:-S :YMAPPLAUSE:
