- order
- bring
- keep
- or control
β€œany troops or armed men” at a polling place.

Did anyone hear or read a message expressing condolences to Canada for the tragic school shooting from Trump?
No I thought not!!!

Former Prince Andrew and others including the former deputy prime minister of the UK have paid a very heavy price and are still being investigated with the likelihood of more punishment.
Clearly there is a difference in moral values between Europe and the U.S?

I love the fact that when I’m watching UK tv (which is 90% of the time) I don’t see crosses dangling around the necks of tv presenters or the Botox faces and plumped up lips that you see so much on US tv.

Going from Mark Carney’s speech to Donald Trump’s press briefing was like going from an iPhone to two styrofoam cups and some string.

Trump has inflicted more damage on the U.S. in financial, emotional and physically terms in just 12 months than any foreign adversary in decades. He is ranked with lowest approval of any president also in decades.

Just listen to the eloquence and intellect from leaders such as Carney of Canada, Macron and others and then be embarrassed listening to the deranged bumbling old man Trump. It is totally embarrassing.

I was born just as WWII was ending and 80 years on, having lived on two continents and travelled globally, I am appalled and disgusted that the world seems to have dredged the depths of humanity and come up with another madman and his sycophants like Hitler this time to soil the Oval Office.

I am increasingly hearing from friends and contacts around the world from a variety of political leanings that Trump has lost all credibility and no one respects or trusts him. Once again, just as in his first term he has made the U.S. a laughing stock!

What a joke, maybe look at the Trump cabinet of totally unqualified people many of which are just Fox mouthpieces.

I have lived a very long life and through many different governments on two continents and I have NEVER experienced such liars as in this Trump government. The Republican Party has now disintegrated into a pathetic heap of spineless lily livered dregs of society with absolutely no self respect!

I wonder why Trump likes the lowly educated?

Oklahoma, Trump won every county.
-44th in education.
-49th in healthcare.
-44th in quality of life.
-50th in test scores.

Massachusetts, Harris won every county.
-1st in education.
-2nd in healthcare.
-1st in quality of life.
-1st in test scores.

If only the USA had a leader as capable as Mark Carney of Canada or Claudia Sheinbaum Pardo of Mexico, what a much better life people of the U.S. would have!
Instead of the deranged narcissist currently carrying out Putin’s wishes and surrounded by a cabinet of unqualified goons!
