    I wanted Trump to win in 2016, just to see what the fook it would be like..

    I want Trump to lose in 2020, just to see what it will be like..

    Anyone else like this?

    Beto o rourke?
    He was never seriously in the running.

    Pete Buttigieg did surprisingly well I think he is only 38, intelligent and a war vet but I am not sure middle America will vote for a gay president just yet even though he is a christian.

    I just used Beto as a metaphor for the Dems not deciding on anyone under 40-50. Never heard of Pete Buittgieg so there you go. Honestly.

    In times past if you were older no one cared, now it seems if you are younger and well educated no on in the Dems care either.

    I often wonder about their strategy TBH.

    Biden needs a massive lead in the polls to have any chance and he hasn't. Desperately bad pick from the Democrats which they will severally regret.

    The world is much more right leaning then it wants to admit. It plays right into Trumps hands.

    How come "Martial law will be declared before his term is over" isn't an option?

    He’s trying to remove thousands of pharmaceutical jobs.

    Obama had the same idea, lets not forget that.

    What will we buy it with?

    You can trade services, if you are lucky enough to be able to do a skill or trade required within your own community. If you are not, better start learning one.

    But you may not be able to buy it!

    No, its not, America is based on watching and consuming TV and all the corporate **** that goes with it, that's why the majority of their sports games have more advertising on the game than the actual game. You are in for a rough time if you think Joe is going to win.

    I wouldn't be so sure about that, America potentially could be on the cusp of a civil war, if they go down, we all go down!

    Very dramatic post there, its no where near that bad.

    But this is not our current reality, if there's a catastrophic crash, most skills could be rendered useless

    We are talking about Trump v Biden.
    This is excluding the tariffs he put on Irish products.

    No, I hated Clinton but in a two horse race wanted her to win, hate Biden and want him to win....Trump has made the lives on many minorities intolerable, he's emboldened some of the most disgusting creatures on the far-right....Bring back the Guillotine!

    First President in 40 years to not start a new war. This is why the Democrats have no strategy or platform. They were sure he would start one [despite him running on ending them] so they could use the "We'll bring our soldiers home" card, but he took that away from them. They blew their collective loads on the phony investigations and impeachments, The riots have turned people against them. They have nothing to run on.

    If the Democrats thought they had a chance they would have condemned and ended the riots months ago.

    They are trying to backtrack rapidly now but the damage is done. Backing violent thugs over the police is always a bad look to middle America which is voting America.

    Ah, I thought you were talking sh!te, that confirms it.

    Tis indeed, we potentially could be viewing the beginning of a civil war, in the modern age, of a so called developed country

    The vast majority of trades are always going to be needed. You going to go to K-Circle or tescos to get somebody there to fix your roof?

    We'll see another for years of Trump continuing to Make America Great.

    Yeah in fairness he did make America great, Covid has scuppered that but I'd put money on him to sort it out. He had the country flying. Biden will be a disaster.

    How will it be produced?


  • Registered Users Posts: 15,884 ✭✭✭✭Spanish Eyes


    Let us see what happens. But in fairness the Dems fkd up here big time.

    When you think of all the advisers and strategists they pay so many dollars to, you would wonder what the F is going on.

    I really dunno, maybe they are depending on the VP elect. But who could name her without looking it up lol. That is a thing for me. But hey I don't live there so she may be more noted over there. Then again, who really cares about the VP anyway?

    It is the Rep Trump, v the Dem Biden. End of story.

    Tell that to the Yemenis being slaughtered by US financed Saudi artillery, tell that to the people of Gaza being bombed by the IDF with the full support of Trump.

    How will these companies operate, if there's a catastrophic crash, baring in mind what occured in 08!

    From the ground. That's how most of it is actually done. I produce most my seasonal veg from out my back yard that aint half the size of a tennis court. Anybody can do this. Anything else i need I can get it from my community. For trade or something else.

    Interesting comment, and I think in the US you could be so right now.

    But how will the rest of the economy function, if there's a catastrophic crash of the American economy?
