Growing up in the 80's pocket money was awesome. I remember spending my weekends at a Milk Bar or trying to catch a Mr Whippy van.

And while I was there {and probably wearing Spiderman of He Man jocks) this guy said this....

Mate I care so little that I dont know the actual mile stones or fine print, honestly I was hoping it would shut the riff raff up but they are stoic in their blindness.

If thats the official date then fine, basically when the winner is officially sworn in then thats it.

Can we amend the forums T&C to not allow posts with just you tube links?

Crazy how people are quick to throw up some video mish mash that a 12 year old made.

Looks like Donny is considering a tilt at his own media empire. Interesting times as he’s fallen out of love with Fox News.

Good to see his supporters here could still get their fix via a subscription model!!!

This has probably so much relevance as some of the others posted; I thought “Why not?”…



It will be interesting to see how Putin approaches a Biden-led government. (And yes, I am fully aware the video is Ukrainian from Odessa, not Russian).

IN 1930's Germany, everyone who wasn't on the Adolf train was "taken away" and mostly ended up dead. That was the exact opposite of political correctness

And the parallels with communism are a hoot. Trump is having a public love affair with Putin, the ex-KGB spy. Trump also has had business dealings with China. Until recently he was actively doing business there

Quote:
In response to questions from The Times, Alan Garten, a lawyer for the Trump Organization, said the company had “opened an account with a Chinese bank having offices in the United States in order to pay the local taxes” associated with efforts to do business there. He said the company had opened the account after establishing an office in China “to explore the potential for hotel deals in Asia.
and even more recently Chinese state owned companies rented floor space in in buildings.


Quote:
President Donald Trump, who declared “I don’t make money from China” in Thursday night’s presidential debate, has in fact collected millions of dollars from government-owned entities in China since he took office. Forbes estimates that at least $5.4 million has flowed into the president’s business from a lease agreement involving a state-owned bank in Trump Tower.

The key word is “Mental”.

These aren’t Gymnastics, they’re just “Mental” ( with bad spelling / grammar ).

Not sure what effect that firing actually achieves practically but we now know why Esper was fired

If your entire chain of command that you appointed says it is a bad idea to do what you want to do, then a normal president would almost certainly follow that advice. But if you don't agree, you just appoint someone who will do it what you want.

And this my friends is why caretaker conventions exist in Australia

He’s at least temporarily forgotten how to President. I have sympathy for his youngest son.

The flailing retrenchments hearken to that tale of Sir Frank Packer “firing” the lift mechanic.

They just found a memory stick holding 26000 votes which have not been included in the original count . News has it, most were backing Trump, but not enough to change the outcome. Buckle up!!

This is not over by a long shot. The purge is just the beginning. The fun starts when Trump comes out and starts holding rallies once again.......if he has any money left.
