If you suspend belief and rationalise enough it makes sense I guess? Trump is the biggest snowflake out there and whitewashing history, yet his true believers think he’s a hero.

Yet your “un woke” hero is on a war that anything remotely uncomfortable must be removed. Slavery in museums, words they don’t like, comedians they don’t like, war hero’s they don’t like. Sorry but your position is indefensible. There’s nothing wrong with being against Harris for her policies. Keith has articulated his argument quite clearly without having to defend Trump and hide behind fig leaves. It sounds like you’re happily going to vote for Trump in 2028, because your lord and saviour is anointed by god to overturn the constitution that others hold dear.

Pretty screwed up set of values to place a racist criminal over someone else because of her gender and colour.

I wonder if anyone ever told him that the definition of a museum is “collection of artefacts of historical interest”. Babbling fool wants museums to be about the future, and it’s interesting how acknowledging slavery as bad gets under his skin.

I’m conflicted over keeping a FB account and don’t have Ticktok. In Australia FB are in the process of requiring government ID to maintain your account, due to recent legislation changes. I’ve had identity theft before and I don’t just hand out my ID. The problem is that I’ve got FB friends and relatives around the world where I’m interested in their major life events that they post, but it’s not like we phone or text each other.

In reality how much worse is a Chinese platform than a US one? The US platforms are taking every bit as much info and selling it on for consumption. There’s a fair amount of evidence that the US government is consuming that data.

I’m really sorry Wendy. Feel free to vent or reach out anytime and please remember to take time for yourself.

He would have cum in his pants if he got a state visit to Saddam Hussein. A strong leader with a gold fetish!

Watching the body language and tone of Trumps press conference he was very deferential and submissive to Putin. Putin dominated the show. He talked longer and not once did Trump look bored or try to take over as he normally does. Another Trump stunt is to make people walk to him to shake hands, yet he crossed the stage to Putin. His signature game of trying to dominate handshakes was also far more submissive. It was interesting how much Putin emphasised how often they talk and how good their relationship is. All in all if Trump is a Russian asset he got an A+ on his performance review.

Ok $50 Australian dollars (not American rubles) to a charity.

$10 because the same thought crossed my mind

For what it’s worth American soldiers based in Aus that my son works with aren’t held in high regard. Poor discipline and lots of petty theft, to the extent the Aussie’s lock up their valuables when American troops are around. There have been a number of rapes and fights that have occurred and been swept under the rug as America protected them. Last year in California I had a retired US Marine tell me a story of how he got in a fight he started/got into in Sydney and how they got away with it - granted his story was from the late 90’s early 2000’s.
