Summations Only

He does set the bar high, that's true.

Indeed - maybe Trump could arrange for large chunks of Finland to be cut up and exported to California to reduce the risk of the fires happening again ;-)

I honestly think that video would make no difference at all. Trump could literally bite the heads off a row of new-born babies, and his support base would not waver one jot in the face of that.I suspect it’s more that he knows that Putin would have him killed if he stepped out of line.

Just heard a piece on the radio about the Swedish extradition case. It’s quite likely, apparently, that the extradition proceedings could be strung out long enough by Assange’s team, for the limitation period in Sweden to expire. Watch this space.

1. Look at the real estate/construction contracts placed by the heavy pollution companies over the next few years.
2. See who they're placed with.
3. See who finances who they're placed with.
4. Trace the connections as best you can, to determine the ultimate beneficiaries.That should give the question a pretty good answer.

To be fair, about 0.2% of our population is about to vote in as leader of our country a man who couldn't find his own arse if he was given a map, detailed instructions and an experienced proctologist as a guide.Stupidity is highly contagious, it seems.

Nah - he thinks G7 is a mountain near to K2, and is planning to offer to buy it off the Netherlands.

Apparently, one of Trump’s suggestions for the border (as well as shooting migrants in the legs) is a water filled trench stocked with alligators and snakes:Donald Trump 'suggested shooting migrants in the legs' - BBC NewsWe could lend you James Bond....Edited by vimesey, : No reason given.

True. His supporters would be disappointed if he didn't. If he did something decent, he'd become part of The Evil Establishment, and not One Of Us.

Give paper, page and paragraph where Don Corleone openly required Jack Woltz to give Johnny Fontane a part in a movie.

Perhaps an anecdote would assist you here.A barrister I once spoke to told me (and I've since seen it in a cartoon as well), when barristers address each other, prefacing their sentence with the words "with respect", it means "you're wrong". When they say "with the greatest respect", it means "you're very wrong". And when they say "with the utmost respect", it means "send for the men in the white coats".The beauty of language is that it has many meanings, a large proportion of them non-literal and contextual. The horse's head in The Godfather is one of the classic iterations of that.People can nitpick all they want over the literal interpretation of Trump's precise language (which is a largely futile endeavour in any event, since his utterances are rarely grammatically coherent, let alone correct). However, if you believe that Trump's clear request to the Ukraine was anything other than a blatantly unlawful request to a foreign government to interfere in US elections, then, with the utmost respect, you are in error.Edited by vimesey, : No reason given.
