So trump caused the downturn the USA is suffering now ? Not all, for sure. The pandemic and the war have been major contributors, but Trump's approach to both didn't help. His economic impact is though only part of his failings. He could have overseen a golden period and still have been a disaster. He made the USA a laughingstock, undermined Nato, and threatened the whole basis of democracy.

Only those who would not think him guilty if Trump shot someone on 5th Avenue think like that. Not too many others. I read that the swing voters and independents have largely had enough of him. As they were crucial in 2016 that's important. You can fool all the people some of the time, and some of the people all the time, but not all the people all the time. That's democracy for you. If 100m Americans think he's the man then your rhetoric runs out.

I take back what I said earlier about you not being that dumb. Genes don't change just because someone moves to another country. You don't become Northern European British if you are from pakistan. Have you had your DNA analysed? Please do so before making this kind of ignorant comment again. It's exactly the kind of thing that a White Supremacist would say. We all have a mixed family history. In the past, that was mostly, but not exclusively, from our close neighbours. The world has changed. Those arriving now come from much further afield, especially now we have left the EU! These new arrivals will assimilate and mix, some quicker than others, some hardly at all, but what's certain is that as the years pass and new generations replace the current, things will not be the same. They won't be like they were in our youth, but neither will they be like the vision you promote. This is the future. You need to start accepting it because all you are doing is tilting at windmills.

If it was another Trump v Biden contest, then a decent independent could win. I have always believed Biden was a stop gap and will either step aside, or not win the nomination. Who it might be is an open question, but who-ever it was would only have to appear normal to beat Trump. I have read theories that suggest the DNC want Trump to be the GOP candidate, as they believe they can beat him, but not DeSantis. Which is why the GOP top echelon are distancing themselves from Trump. What a system!

It seems that Trump what has been been charged with is the equivalent of 34 parking tickets. If you you want serious criminal charges, look no further than the SNP.

The 'find me votes' call was far more incriminating. He's clearly a grifter on steroids and has been his whole life in and out of politics. Just because others of other political persuasions are no better it doesn't detract from wrongdoing we're personally happier with. To take the mans own mantra, lock em all up. Get people in politics who are typical people, who preferably led a normal life at some point so can relate to the struggles of the average individual. They are few and far between.

You would see it like that, wouldn't you? Your grasp of reality has been shown to be extremely tenuous these past weeks. You simply cannot accept that alternative views to your own, often very dubious ones, can be respectably held. You seem the kind I would quickly start to blank if I met him in the pub. Someone who has absolutely nothing interesting to say, but is very offensive when saying it. It's different here. Where do you drink - in the Boar's Head?

Two very interesting video clips, thanks for posting them. Some of these arguments in favour of chemical castration etc are literally insane.
