Now the wotsit w@nker pretty much hand picks the media outlets who attend his press conferences (who are you with?) there is almost zero questioning of any of the generic populist bs he spouts, especially in the last few days. Where the f@ck is the detail behind what happens when these tariffs kick in..how will US infrastructure magically manufacture everything they import now at the same cost to US consumers, or indeed not pass on the extra costs to US consumers? It’s such palpable bollocks, based on what, some oddballs manifesto?

How? Nothing Trump (or Assange, another of Vlad's boys) has said or done ever targets Russia or Putin. As with Brexit, Trump's chaos weakens & splinters the West. To Putin's gain
Not directly, no. But, aside from shaking Europe out of its torpor, US economic policies are depressing the cost of oil (Russia’s is down to about $50 per barrel) and directly target Putin’s main ally and trading partner, China. Trump is also targeting Iran, another key partner.

This is worth watching on Russia’s economy, which is not in great shape.

Trump is causing oil prices to fall. That affects Russia.

Donald Trump Must Be Impeached​


Because the question before us isn't whether Trump should be impeached. It’s whether America still possesses the political maturity—or the institutional integrity—to confront what that would actually mean.

What we are witnessing is not a debate over policy direction or ideological contest. It is a slow-motion confrontation between one man and the constitutional order itself—disguised, as always, as populism.

It’s tempting to wave this all away – to pretend what’s going on is not really a threat to democracy. After all, haven’t we been down this road before? Twice? Didn’t the American people just signal that they are, if not enthusiastic, at least unbothered by Trump’s past offenses? That’s the wrong lesson. Impeachment is not a popularity contest.

It’s not a referendum on electoral legitimacy. It is a constitutional remedy for those moments when the chief executive officer refuses to be constrained by law, when the very idea of checks and balances becomes intolerable to the man at the top.

The fundamental political issue isn’t Trump’s personal conduct, however contemptuous it may be, but his systematic rejection of the system of checks and balances that defines the American system of republican democracy. When a sitting president declares that courts have no right to question his policies, when he floats the idea of ignoring rulings from various courts, and when he demands his supporters in Congress simply accede to his demands, the republic is not merely being tested. It is being threatened.

Rising sea levels = less land mass = = shorter coastlines = fewer waterfront properties.

Basic facts continuously evade his grasp.
No, see.....
You dig coal out of the ground, the land doesn't weigh so much and floats higher on the water exposing more land.
And any sea water will flow into the holes and so the water levels will go down, again exposing and creating more beautiful coastline. The most beautiful coastline ever.

YAY..... GO MURRICAHHHHH GO TARRIFFFFFSSS
