Ok at least I won't have to put up with your posts.

And how will that help?

Climate breakdown may well be Trump's legacy but he's not a trigger happy cowboy in foreign affairs threatening to nuke countries. Whether his isolationism will make this part of the world more unstable is dependent on how European powers respond to Trump's NATO withdrawal.

RFK is big on clamping down on industrial processed food. No more Cheetos or Captain Crunch for Maga voters.

The entire Trump vortex is a massive of seething contradictions, internally and with all the supposed values of his fans.

The car is on fire, and there's no driver at the wheel.

The only rationale I can come up with for his following is "better to be behind him than in his way", ignoring the fact that his momentum is caused by so many being behind him.

My prediction that RFK Jnr would be swiftly forgotten about didn't come true then...

How is it half-way acceptable that Musk conducts meetings with senior Iranian officials? Freelance foriegn policy surely can't be legal.

This transition period is utterly bonkers.

Trump and Musk will have fallen out in a few months. There simply isn't enough room for their egos.

Ooft, my goodness. Two hours later and that spello burns my retinas.

It's a hell of a death rattle he's got, I can't think who it reminds me of - I suspect it might be one of the centenarian D-Day veterans I heard interviewed back in June.

Bit of a Fesshole, but I rather like being in the USA.

I like traditional diners, I like guitar shops, I like the new wave of craft beers in long, narrow bars. In fact, I had been thinking leaning on the Kreuzette with a view to a brief-ish holiday in late-winter.

If that means rubbing shoulders with disease-ridden maniacs for ten days, Madeira might be a better option. Or Kabul.
