But as opposed to being right or wrong, and given you didn't discuss the points I made about balance, maybe you have just proven my comments to at least be accurate compared to fanciful!
Trump's no longer POTUS. He's not the talking point you wish it would be ... and refutation is not your strong point. EVERY thing I said about the walking corpse is fact.

Not a patch on Caligula unfortunately.

I'm not concerned by what you said, it's what you leave out or gloss over that is a bigger concern, it exposes either a bias or a warped perspective. I read your commentary and it comes across to me as almost a "Facebook's most banned comment" summary. If you discussed both sides of US politics with such vigour, I could let it slip, but you clearly don't so I won't!
Unlike some I don't have an obvious favourite, in fact on the matter of the USA I don't have a favourite at all!

I'm no Biden fan either, I just think he is far less of a danger than the Orange one.
The POTUS is a front-person for a much bigger machine, but in Donald's case, it seems he actually believes he is El Supremo. If he were to be elected again, his ego may be too much for the whole world.......
