1. This thread is specifically about Donald Trump not Joe Biden. The particular discussion was about what Trump had actually done. It had nothing to do with what Biden may or may not have done (and what we do know with 100% certainty is what he actually did not do whilst President). 2. You have absolutely no idea what my opinion would have been if Biden, when he was POTUS, had done what Trump has done now. 3. It is extremely immature and myopic to accuse someone of only supporting the actions of people they “like” when they have a 20 year posting history with plenty of examples of criticising the actions of people they “like.” 4. You say that you see things “for what they really are.” Not only is that statement purely subjective, it is also made a lie by your support of many discredited conspiracy theories 5. Another immature statement. You have no idea if I would have supported Biden if he had done what Trump has done. You have just constructed another conspiracy in your head and posted it as a fact. 6. You absolutely are a Trump apologist. You have never criticised anything that he has done and let’s face it, he is open to a great deal of criticism. You are often the first one on here to defend his latest disastrous decision or action or throw the TDS deflection around. 7. For someone who does not support any of “them” you spend a lot of time either doing so on here or avoid criticism of “them” when they are open to it. 8. When Islamic attacks occur I have called them out of extremist atrocities. How do you equate that with justification? A very simplistic and childish reaction. Let me make it easier for you to understand the difference between an apologist and someone pointing out an obvious disconnect. A certain poster on here spends a lot of time posting about brown skinned, Muslim rape gangs. You will not find any posts from him about white non Muslim rape gangs.Why one and not the other? Pointing this fact out does not excuse the actions of the former group of men. It highlights a very clear bias. I have asked the question many times (and of you). Is the rape or murder of a women more serious if carried out by a brown skinned Muslim worse and more noteworthy than if committed by a white, non- Muslim? I know you think that you have a greater intellect than the rest of us, but good luck with trying to explain how you confuse this with apologising for the criminal actions Muslims. Once again I have handed you your arse served up on a silver platter. 🤗

Duh! The point was that if the people wanted him gone it is their decision, not Trump’s. Laughable? Have you not been paying attention to how Trump has and is ignoring the checks and balances that the American constitution has in place? He ignores the sovereignty of other nations. He is happy to kill his own people. Ok for you? As for buying me a dictionary, perhaps check the spelling of Xmas before you think that you are scoring points.

Could be? I just remember that he was very bitchy towards her when she won. Still, he has his FIFA Peace Prize now 😂.

I am not sure replacing one dictator for another is a benefit for anybody other than the new dictator. It does really matter whether I think his removal is a good thing or not, it is down to the people of Venezuela isn’t it? It should be their decision, not mine or Donald Trump’s. It would be a good thing if the likes of Trump, Putin and Netanyahu were removed IMO, but the choice again should be down to the people.

Ralph, do you think it is ok for Trump to decide who runs Venezuela rather than the people? Do you think that the oil is his? This idea that there would be a different reaction if a different President did this is ridiculous. I don’t see anyone being upset about his removal. It is more about the driving force of Trump’s actions and what he is planning to do with the country.

She won “his” Nobel Peace Prize. He will never forgive her for stealing what was rightfully his.

Trump now seems to be saying what happens to Taiwan is a matter for China, but he hopes that they don’t do anything. WTF? Also https://www.independent.co.uk/asia/china/china-taiwan-attack-threat-venezuela-b2896617.html

Donald J Trump ”I am the President of the United States of America and I do what I like, to whom I like, wherever and whenever I like.” east-stand-nic ”Yay!” The point that I haven’t missed is that you are a Trump apologist. You are quick to abuse those who call out his abhorrent actions and you never, ever call them out yourself. I can just picture you sitting there in your MAGA baseball cap searching for negative posts about him to either post a laughing emoji or coming up with some kind of deflection or spurious argument to support him. You call me a “wankpot” yet you constantly support probably the most vile and dangerous man on the planet at this moment in time. Have I missed the point? No, I don’t think so.

The question also needs to be asked why didn’t ICE let the medics through for so long when the victim was obviously not a threat.

Yeah, but Biden….. 🙄

And if you don’t you get shot three times in the face? She was the mother of a 6 year old child. They could have checked her license plate quickly and discovered that she was no threat. She clearly did not try to run anybody down and was actually waving the ICE vehicle through shortly before she was shot at very close range.

So the shooter who is film walking away from the scene who is clearly not injured in any shape or form is recovering in hospital? Pure Orwell. Don’t believe your eyes, believe what we tell you.

I expect that Trump will call the video “fake.” The ICE agent needs to be charged with murder. At least Putin’s henchmen have the decency to make it look like their victims have met with “unfortunate accidents.” Anyone see the footage of Trump’s interpretation of a trans person weightlifting? This is the most powerful person on the planet and he and his supporters think that it is perfectly reasonable to act like that on a public platform. He needs medical help and should be removed from office immediately. https://www.independent.co.uk/news/world/americas/us-politics/trump-transgender-weightlifter-impression-speech-b2895688.html#

That was my first Saints game at The Dell. My mate and his Dad were Saints supporters and I went along with them driving down from London. I mentioned to my mate that I had seen the Palace game at Selhurst Park previously and he asked if I would like to go along. At that time I didn’t support anyone. Being a couple of nippers we were ushered down to the front and were right in front of where Big Chiv pulled the ball back for Paine to score the winner. The place went crazy. I have been a Saints fan ever since, it is all your fault Martin! My best mate at the time and who I still stay in touch with, is a Spurs fan. We were reminiscing yesterday and he said he saw Chiv’s first game for Spurs and thought he was rubbish and a waste of money! I think at the time it was a club record we sold him for, £125,000?

During my time with the CPS I spent a year working at Medway nick. The police there were of the opinion that you shouldn’t have any alcohol in your system if you are driving as different amounts cause different impairment levels in different people. Even small amount could cause a problem for some people. The pictures in the files in RTA fatality cases are horrific and they have to deal with them first hand. Anything that can be done to reduce the number of drink/drug related accidents can only be a good thing.

The first Saints game I saw was at Selhurst Park in the 65/66 season and Martin Chivers was sent off! Gutted when he left (and got Frank Saul in return) but we had the even greater Ron Davies so all was not lost. He was a quality player. Sad news. RIP big man.

Pubs shouldn’t rely on people being over the drink driving limit to survive though should they. If there is a designated driver they shouldn’t be drinking. If everyone wants a drink, get a taxi. There are other issues effecting the viability of pubs.

There is only one Jackass here nic. Do you think that NATO is stronger or weaker after Trumps latest pronouncements about Greenland? Do you think that Ukraine is safer or less safe? Perhaps change your name to Dobbin? 🫏

In Wales between 2023/24 there were 10 fewer deaths in the 20mph zones and 100 fewer people either killed or seriously injured. London- 40% reduction from 15 deaths to 9. 34% in those’d killed or seriously injured. Child deaths reduced by 75% from 4 to 1. 50% reduction in overall child casualties. The risk of being killed in a collision is 5 times higher at 30mph than 20mph. As for looking at the speedo, modern cars beep at you when you exceed the speed limit so there is no need to look at the dashboard. If you don’t have the warning signal, just drive slowly if you are worried about taking your eyes off the road 😉 It is a pain in the butt driving at 20mph, especially within the North/South circular roads in London in quiet periods, but the reduced speed zones are clearly saving lives and reducing the number of serious injuries.

As a decent man himself, do you think that Marcus would have tolerated how Cortese treated people both inside and outside the club?

Odious little man with a Napoleon complex. Has he worked in football since despite claiming he had several top jobs lined up?

Any worse than “Legohead” and “Snapdragon”?

Nice little earner!

Weren’t the Norsemen the first Europeans to set foot in the New World? Perhaps Denmark should suggest they swap Greenland for the USA?
