Re: Trumpled (Alternative Leading) - madbluboy - 07-11-2024
Bring on the golf match.
Quote: Trump, speaking from the 10th hole of his course, challenged Biden to another debate or even a "golf-off" reviving an offbeat argument from their debate.
But mostly, he rubbed in how their meetup left Biden's campaign facing a grim prognosis.
"Our victory was so absolute that Joe's own party now wants him to throw in the towel and surrender the presidency after a single 90-minute performance," Trump said.
"They want 'Crooked Joe' out of the race. It's a shame the way they’re treating him. But don’t feel sorry for him. He’s a very bad guy."
Re: Trumpled (Alternative Leading) - LP - 07-11-2024
Last time Trump got a low score at golf he ended up with a blister on his big toe!
It says so much about the USA that a large segment of the general public worship rubbish like that sort of carry on. They have a large segment that think winning by cheating is still winning, if it's one of their own, yet the very same section of the public will admonish China's Olympic athletes!
FFS, silly old kents, the US should bring in compulsory retirement for both of them!

It's the same here. Labor are as corrupt as hell but people don't care because it's their team.

Nuh. The word corruption is synonymous with most political ideologies.
As Einstein once said, and I'm paraphrasing, once you become a blindly loyal/rusted on political party supporter you no longer have any use for your brain... just the brain stem - so you can walk, eat, breathe, ablute and vote.
My humble reading of many folks here is that there're few blindly politically loyalists. Mostly, our blind loyalty is reserved for our beloved Bluebaggers.
Re: Trumpled (Alternative Leading) - Lods - 07-11-2024
That Einstein was a pretty smart guy.

I've probably been as pro-andrews as anyone on this site.
However, to suggest that its because its 'my team' or to suggest that people don't realise they are corrupt is showing YOUR bias.
Every political party is corrupt, including Liberal.
I'm not rusted on anything. I hate all the parties and all politicians. ToMAYto, ToMARto.

So what evidence of corruption do you have?
After over 40 years working with State governments of both persuasions I can only think of one incident where corruption from a member of the government was likely. Incompetence, naivety, pork barreling, populism, dishonesty, self-aggrandisement, risk aversion, cowardice, branch stacking, bullying, discrimination, nepotism and many other failings were relatively commonplace but certainly not exclusive to one party or another.
I have no doubt that corruption exists, as the NSW ICAC has shown, but "corrupt as hell"?
I think "Labor are as corrupt as the Liberals, Nationals and Greens" is probably more accurate.
Re: Trumpled (Alternative Leading) - Thryleon - 07-11-2024
I've only seen evidence of incompetence.
The shame is the same party keeps winning anyway.
Once upon a time people would revolt. We aren't there yet but next generation will get there.
Can't afford housing, groceries or what not at aged 25 and coming from middle class Australia? That's a recipe for a revolution if I've ever seen one.

Biden just introduced the president of the Ukraine as Putin.
Re: Trumpled (Alternative Leading) - madbluboy - 07-11-2024
Now he has backed his Vice President Trump.
