The more actions you see of this 'government', the more you hear of Trump speaking (that's assuming you can put up with that for more than a few seconds), the more you think that it is the language and behaviours of mobsters.
We're all hoping for that "Don Trumponi sleeps with the fishes" moment.

(That's my chances of landing a visa screwed).

Murrika is a great place, beautiful, with some terrific music and good food. and some lovely people. Visited there 3 or 4 times and loved it.

But it's a country that has collectively taken leave of its senses. Anybody with any sort of progressive outlook or caste of mind would be mad to go there until Trump is gone.

From what she says, sounds like she wasn't exactly very keen to stay in her job. I wonder if she's heard even more rubbish about taking Greenland than the public and doesn't want to be there when it kicks off.

A brain aneurysm on the bog from forcing out a McDonald's-fuelled Richard would probably have me dying of laughter.

Meanwhile - what a fucking surprise. Don't separate a Septic from their tech.

US President Donald Trump's administration has exempted smartphones and computers from reciprocal tariffs, including the 125% levies imposed on Chinese imports.

US Customs and Border Patrol published a notice late on Friday explaining the goods would be excluded from Trump's 10% global tariff on most countries and the much larger Chinese import tax.

The move comes after concerns from US tech companies that the price of gadgets could skyrocket, as many of them are made in China.

They'd only see him as a martyr and bring one of his sons in.
Well, I’ll still be fucking delighted.

Well, yes. If anybody really thinks they’re going to publish an accurate and truthful medical report on The Donald, then I have a bridge they might like to purchase.

Indeed - and in this day and age, publishing such a document could have serious consequences for the medical professionals carrying it out.
