So Vivek Rameswamy dropped out of the republican race. I don’t think we’ve  seen the last of him. He’s endorsed Trump and 100% buys into his ‘ America First’ policies. You may ask yourself how anyone can be so stupid to endorse trump… well Vivek is Yale AND Harvard educated. So he’s not stupid… but….

 

well I have lived here for 12 years and I still don’t understand American politics. but to be fair there’s Americans who don’t understand American politics..

 

 

Anyway, don’t be surprised to see Trump pick Vivek as his running mate…

I endorse Trump, in so much as a UK non elected citizen can endorse anything you-ess-ay.

Guess I'm stupid too.

 I know that this is a common theme - that people think you must be stupid to endorse Trump but I clearly stated how educated Vivek is  and so he’s clearly not stupid.

 

Dont ignore that part or maybe people will think you are!

I’m kinda hoping she sinks and we never hear her name again.

 

She (and people like her) are largely what is going wrong in the world. I mean, her ex husband sued her for releasing a pornographic video of them. 
 

Some people hold her as some national bloody treasure for some reason but she’s not. If a bloke had done that, they’d be cancelled and everything (quite rightly).

Unlikely.

So it seems to me that North Korea are looking to exploit the fact the United States are starting to Spread themselves about with the conflicts  in Ukraine, Israel and now China ratcheting up the rhetoric after Taiwan’s recent  election. Also with an election coming up. They seem to think the U.S’s attention is elsewhere.
 

So they have basically declared South Korea as their main enemy now ( it’s always been the United States)  and have stated they will no longer be avoiding conflict with them. They are sending  more troops to the border. We are used to their Sabre rattling but these steps are unprecedented as They are  also closing down all their reunification departments and have stated that reunification will only happen by force.

 

Kim Jong Un brands South Korea primary foe and rules out unity https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-asia-67990948

Dunno how you can compare Biden and Trump really. Whatever you think of Democrats' politics they are clearly very different from Trump and the modern Republicans.

Erm, I didn't.

 

I posted a picture saying it's a shit choice between a turd sandwich and a douche - or in American terms, an outright fascist in nappies who belongs in prison and a bumbling old duffer who should be in an OAP home.

That about sums it up. Trump is the worst possible human being to be US president, but if Biden is the best candidate the Democrats can come up (in a country, let's not forget, of 330 million) then they need to be investigated for match fixing.

It Truly feels like the Democrats don't want to be in the white house...

Think Biden's had one of the most successful tenures of my lifetime to be honest. "But he's old" seems to be the main criticism people have.

What exactly has he done do you think? Or is that a case of everyone else also being shit?

 

Not disagreeing but interested.

Big infrastructure investment, lowest unemployment I believe for a few decades, one of the strongest economic recoveries from Covid in the world, got them out of Afghanistan, I.R.A., supporting Ukraine despite Republican opposition.

Still don't understand the sentiment. You're not voting for the president only and the two parties from what I can see have quite different policy.

They do. The point is that Biden is such a weak candidate for the Democrats to put forward that they've given Trump a massive opportunity that he should not get. It's not the fact that Biden is 81 (which isn't necessarily a problem in itself), it's that he comes across as a senile, clueless, insincere glad hander who can scarcely grasp what day it is, let alone the intricacies of complex policy decisions. His popularity has significantly declined in the swing states since he became president.

 

If the Democrats put forward a decent candidate, they should have no trouble seeing Trump off; with Biden as their candidate, they've made Trump strong favourite. That's the problem.

I quite like him to be honest. Mostly for the quintessential modern-day voter reason of him really annoying people I strongly dislike.

Fair enough. However, I worry that his ability to annoy people might ultimately work against him when it comes to the election. I really hope I'm wrong.

I've seen it suggested, and it seems to make sense, that the Democrats will wait until the last minute and then announce that Biden is stepping down.  That gives them 5 minutes to pick a new candidate (which won't be Harris), so no need for further primaries, and whoever they pick should win at a canter.

 

They can pretend (and with some justification) that the reason they couldn't announce it earlier because it would have made Biden a lame duck president.
