(By which I mean MAGAs) No chance of that happening, we'll play nicely for 4 years and hope that normal politics returns in 2029, no sense in burning bridges with a close ally because of this pair of ballbags. It will be a tense 4 years that our government try to grit their teeth through, knowing that the only "special relationship" Trump respects is his one with Putin at one end and a ballgag at the other.

Our armed forces are a litteral laughing stock in the US, and US advisors have indicated to our counterparts that we'll need to get our act together because at this rate we're not even top 5 in Europe. Look at it from the US perspective, they've invested a lot into their defense, and we've literally cut our once famed armed forces to shreds. Excellent. Maybe someone else can be their lapdogs to get dragged into foreign conquests 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(By which I mean MAGAs) As much as we dont like it we have no EU membership anymore. The UK needs their strongest ally the US. Its not like we have a lot of friends these days.

magnkarl Posted July 16 Share Posted July 16 I wonder how Putin cozying up to Iran and China will fare with Trump. Historically Trump has been extremely hard on both China and Iran, and now his best mate Vlad has ditched him for Xi and Teheran. It'll make his pea-sized brain work hard, for sure. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We'll need to either work together with Europe or the US. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jareth Posted July 16 Share Posted July 16 I wonder if the average American will be able to see the danger that is now front and centre of Trumps' party. There is still some time to go and Vance is absolutely incendiary - we saw with abortion how it backfired against the republicans, I wonder if they've gone too far too soon.

Davkaus Posted July 16 Share Posted July 16 In other news, our Liz showed up, must be trying to get in on the US grift now she's surplus to requirements. It's not clear if she was able to find her way into the building. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Plenty of Americans seem to have bought in to this trope - "I've heard Birmingham is under Shariah law, and is a no-go area for white Christians", etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Liz Truss has the personality of an amoeba and doesn’t have the capacity to board the grift train… it’s really quite sad and pitiful she is desperate to stay in the public eye. let it go Liz, no one cares what you think or say - give it up and enjoy your lifetime pension for your 46 days of public servitude… 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
villa89 Posted July 16 Share Posted July 16 (edited) At least after the botched assassination attempt half dead Joe won't have to endure another debate. Trump doesn't need to do anything special now to win comfortably. Edited July 16 by villa89 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
