Would be wonderfully poetic if a severe bout of Covid carried him away. Trump in the Oval Office is bad enough but at least he's volatile enough to fall out with the likes of Musk and some of the people he's appointed so far. If Trump were to be Kennedy'd and Vance were to succeed via the 25thA, he'd be far, far more easy to control for Musk and the other powerful sinister ****ers and that worries me even more.

In general I think people are influenced when voting as much by culture and background as economic status. Although of course those things are linked. I think people are influenced by sound bites. This was simply put, as much a victory about it not being Harris, as it was about it being Trump as well. Being totally brutal, the US (like others) will still have pockets of people within its society that would vote for a female, or vote for someone that is not white. Now we’ve got years of a couple of megalomaniacs controlling the world’s narrative.

That is probably the worst thing he could do. He’s got to go there and be a lap dog unfortunately. Although for some unfathomable reason, Trump seems to quite like Starmer.

It would just be funny to see the look on Trump's face when Starmer asks him exactly what he thinks of blokes clearly looking to make women barefoot and pregnant again rather than having any part in the political process beyond tokenism. At least Macron showed some lack of intimidation when he met the man today. I've a feeling perhaps the new German guy might be cut from the same cloth. Starmer might look to take a lesson or two.

I think we overstate economic concerns a little so people start thinking that for example poorer voters have been 'tricked' into voting for Trump, Farage et al when actually they quite like what they're selling.

Ok. Vance is on the lawn to wave off the orange twat. Wiggy climbs on board the helicopter, waves back and says something about being the best President. Vance clearly can’t hear this, he thinks he’s being invited to give a talk about vaccines on the flight. Orangehuman thinks the dim one is trying to get the best seat by the window, they struggle on the steps like two doughy schoolboys slap fighting over a donut. Somehow, the little flag badge on the lapel of one of them flies off. A special service officer looks at the light glinting from it as it arcs. Then a ding is heard as it connects with the tail blades and it’s fired back at the speed of a bullet. Fortunately for the thickest pair of politicians in the world, the special service officer leapt in front of them; the badge condensed most of his brain as it passed through the left eye socket. Vance pukes. Donald, this being the first time he almost died because it wasn’t an obvious set-up, shits himself. A river of fast food slurry pours out of his man-nappy, down his trousers and cascades down the steps. Vance slips in it. Thunk. Thunk. Thunk. The Donald turns, pushes his way to the best seat. Sits down and grins. He doesn’t notice the sensation or smell because this is an everyday experience for him. Airfarce One takes off. Orange bloke, still covered in his own excrement and some splatters of Vance’s puke decides he can fly the helicopter best. The pilots retch, they’ve never smelt anything like this. Vance stands up; this was definitely not how he’d seen his day going when he woke up. He’s confused. That’s more like it, he thought, I’m feeling more normal again. One pilot has blacked out. The co-pilot can’t stop retching…then he pukes up his insides and dies. Airfarce One heads back to the ground. Don grabs a stick - **** me, he can fly this thing. He arrests its groundward plummeting, crashing on its side back on the White House lawn. A fragment of main propellor breaks off, hurtles away, slicing Vance in two. Now the fat, orange paedo cvnt has a heart attack and dies. Better? 2
