I also liked this one listed below it; https://www.prostinternational.com/2020/11/04/nice-guys-southampton-have-mastered-footballs-dark-arts/

So what should have been included would be clips of Lemina, Hoedt, Clasie, Elyanoussi, etc. ?

It's the USA, they speak something approximating English. "Defense", "offense", "sidewalk", "aluminum". ( I always wonder at the last of those, as they can manage "plutonium", "caesium", "uranium", etc ). We should praise MF for undertaking his missionary work.

You should have stopped typing here.

Proving their independence from central Government. Which is also why a lot of the proposed legal challenges will never get to the US Supreme Court, they will get no further than the relevant state's SC. The national Court doesn't like imposing in what is a local issue.

In normal situations, yes. There was something on CNN a couple of days ago where one of the commentators said the whole postal ballot thing has been set up by the Trump campaign, going out and telling their supporters to vote in person knowing that Biden would say the opposite. The Trump campaign could then, knowing that the vast majority of postal ballots would be Democrat voters, play the whole fraud klaxon at full volume because they wouldn't be affected.

If in doubt, resort to playground taunts. And in the current circumstaces you cannot blame people for preferring to avail themselves of the facility for postal ballots.

Ask the Chinese or the Russians.

This is becoming somewhat repetitive. Trump was elected democratically, Hitler was elected democratically. Does the first fact legitimise Trump any more than the second legitimised AH ? Being elected does not mean your actions and behaviours are beyond scrutiny.
-
The point was made in response to repeated bleats of "Trump was elected democratically", as if everything else about him that is nauseous and repulsive is excused by that one simple fact. It isn't comparing Trump with Hitler, per se, but the potential for demcratic systems to be abused and manipulated, resulting in divisive and potentially dangerous outcomes.
-
Why ?
-
So you agree, Hitler came to power democratically. It may have been a "different system", but then the systems that elected BoJo, Macron, and Merkel are all democratic yet different.
-
Hitler was elected to power via democratic votes, asked to become Chancellor by President Hindenberg, but once in power began to corrupt and dismantle democratic processes and institutions.
-
You keep reminding us that DT won a democratic vote, and nobody is disputing it. I would, however, point out that Hitler came to power via democratic votes. Just because an electoral system presents a variation on Majority Rule, ( and Trump, like most US and UK leaders did not get a majority of the popular vote ), doesn't mean it's procedures and results can't be questioned.
-
All Trump's victory showed was if you are a beer swilling, gun toting, pickup driving, redneck, you'll never vote for a woman.

Why pick on Hypo specifically ? 😉

If you look up 'patronising' in the dictionary, does it say 'ITK' ?

I don't question the Brexit vote, I just think it will prove to be a mistake.
-
Nigel Farage said a few days before the Brexit vote that that if the referendum was close, for instance 52%-48% in favour of remain, his fight would go on. Mind you, Trump certainly is a wanker, and a cnut ( how does that work ? )
-
Why not, your 2 comments are mutually exclusive.

Correct !

What exactly is 'special' about the relationship between the UK and the USA ? They kicked us out in 1776, invaded British Canada in 1812 and 1815, came into WW1 3 years late, only came into WW2 when Japan attacked them and Hitler was mad enough to declare war on them - ( and the US ambassador in London, Pres Kennedy's father, was pro Nazi ), and screwed us over with Lease-Lend, ( we only paid off their loans in 2006 ).. And if Biden is a Socialist, Tony Blair was an extremist Communist. ( PS; Our oldest ally is Portugal. )

What a blinder DT has played ! ☺️😂

CNN now calling Biden the President Elect after he wins Pennsylvania.
