Canada has always been the 51st state, they don't know it yet. I remember when Bryan Adams the Canadian pop star was interviewed about that in the 80's.

Well that settles that. No further discussion needed.

Play the Reckless album at the negotiations.

Plenty seem to be getting hot and heavy under the collar about Donald's troll games here

Yes, but there isn’t agreement here about whether Trump is trolling or being serious.

He was clearly not being serious in the past about building a wall, providing great healthcare at an affordable price, throwing all illegals out and getting rid of the debt.

It’s not always clear when he’s trolling people or being serious.

The affordable healthcare at a fraction of the cost was a bit of cruel trolling. Some d people with health issues believed that.

Only those who would vote for Trudeau today would vote Democratic

Really? Where are you getting this from?

Some people really do not understand rethoric and the news cycle. It is a bit like tic-tac-to players watching a chess game.

So what have your podcasters told you he’s actually up to?

Always pathetic to see MAGA cultists celebrate even the most obviously nonsensical Trump musings

There are Trump voters who voted for him despite his nonsense, trolling, childishness, idiocy and vulgarity.

Some may have voted for him because of this.

Imagine being in the latter category?

At least he actually moved out of the USA I will give him that

Lots of people do.

Many reasons for it. Some patriotic types say patriotic Americans wouldn’t dream of voluntarily living anywhere else.

Maybe he’s not the patriotic type.

But sure, keep pretending Christians are history's greatest villains while enjoying the moral framework it created!

Tough to say who’s the greatest villain and how you measure it.

Surely Christianity, Communism and Nazism are up there in terms of historical brutality?

In terms of repressing thought and creativity, surely Christianity wins on that count?

Anyway, it’s on a dramatic slide in the US. This could bode well for the future.

I can’t imagine the best and brightest would be studying theology at some crackpot/scam university teaching creationism, but there may be some who choose to study something useful and worthwhile in the future as these courses decline.

Hopefully fewer degrees in Theology, lesbian dance theory and gender studies going forward.

Liverpool will be happy to take on Bournemouth we just beat them 2-0.

I dunno. They gave you a hell of a game and they were unlucky to lose that.

Up the mighty O's! Donley's goal was amazing

Was a beauty. Great performance from the side as a whois. Gained quite a few admirers there.

Does, or has not the altar of "social media" become the new "religion", the smart phone "evangelist".

A visual force of political or social doctrine, combined with a digital AI god messiah, an Ayatollah to replace humanities belief in "church" Christianity?

Not sure about that

You usually find that the more literate people are in the sciences, the less religious they are.

The optimist in me hopes that younger generations are more literate in STEM and this partly explains the dramatic decline in religion among younger generations.

Hope springs eternal and all that.

Bournemouth seriously impressive. Big injury list and dropped key men to the bench but were still a cut above Everton.

One of the sides nobody would like to draw in the next round.

Less than 60% of Americans are practicing Christians. They never attend church

Christianity is in decline in the US. The numbers from the younger generations show a dramatic fall in those identifying with this religion.

You wonder how much longer this kind of mass scamming in the name of Jesus from televangelists and politicians can go on as the older generations pass on.

The clock is ticking on it.

Btw, it would not be surprising in the least if we found that the "Guardian" is also on the long list of swamp financed leftist propaganda mags

Maybe. I only read the footy section.

Are the bad elites influencing those sections too?

 Musk is rich, but now despised by the entrenched elites

So he’s not one of the elites? How about Trump? How about the other billionaires around him?

Who are the entrenched elites? The bad types? Is Soros one of them?

This is nothing to do with legacy media. You constantly rail against the elites but never clearly define who or what you are talking about. Get your definitions clear to start making sone sense. At the moment, you are tying yourself in knots.

"Not sure how influential Trump will be. He’s only got one term and may not even see it out given his age and decline."

Luckily Vance is ready to step up in 4 years time and continue the job

Really? He hasn’t got Trump’s sales skills and has all the charisma of a wet fart. A bit too intelligent for some too.

No way he can pull in the kind of cultish adoration Trump does.

True. But this time it is not just Trump alone vs. the swamp; this he is joined by whole group of excellent people

What about those elites he brought in?

You don’t like elites.

Great to see this, and the effect on Western Europe, where governments are still stuck in the woke elitist mindset will be interesting.

Just to be clear, they are the bad elites rather than the other elites you like?

Just trying to be precise here.

Not sure how influential Trump will be. He’s only got one term and may not even see it out given his age and decline.

Cute , but no real need for joyful little woke

Oh wait! Wokeness is finished. Trump said he ended it. The walls have closed in on it.

Trump said Bondi would also work to “fully prosecute anti-Christian violence and vandalism in our society and to move heaven and earth to defend the rights of Christians and religious believers nationwide.”

Very good.

Freedom of and from religion is key in any country worth living in.

I’m sure that all who believe in this wouldn’t object to a say a Christian, Jewish, Hindu, Muslim, Buddhist or atheist president.

Hopefully people have moved on from the days when some believed Obama was a closet Muslim and attacked him on those grounds.

I’m sure that bigotry has long gone.

“I don’t know if you’ve been watching, but we got rid of woke over the last two weeks,” he said. “Woke is gone-zo.”

That should stop the hysterical types getting upset and wetting themselves because everything has been ruined by wokeness.

Thank Jupiter for that

Trump has sorted it.

After all, communist regimes have at least just as bad of a human-rights record as Nazi Germany did. If not worse.

It should be just as disagreeable to call oneself a communist as society sees calling oneself a Nazi. Around 150 million corpses should be more than enough proof of that

Your scholarship of WW2 is rightly respected on here but I think there are differences.

Here’s what I have come across.

Many Communists ( I’m not one ) that the butchery of Mao, Stalin etc were not a true representation of communism.

Christians ( I’m not one ) do the same thing when confronted with their past butchery. They say that isn’t a true representation of Christianity.

The butchery of Nazism was a true representation of Nazism.

Hence the hammer and sickle and cross don’t carry the same baggage.

Just what I’ve heard argued. I haven’t read half the books written on it.

I don’t see how these bans really do much good. Trolls/idiots might do it just to be edgy.

Posted in: Trump aides defend Gaza takeover proposal but walk back some elements See in context

At a White House briefing on Wednesday, press secretary Karoline Leavitt hailed his Gaza proposal as historic "outside of the box" 

I suppose you could describe injecting disinfectant as ‘thinking outside the box’

A very useful expression in certain situations and when dealing with certain people. Just don’t smirk or giggle when delivering it.

more evidence that we’re living in a simulation. some 15-year old in his room is punking us with trump.

Interesting take.

The unpopular teenagers and stunted adults who like trolling certainly like this kind of thing.

Are those most likely to cheat on their partners are dishonest and morally lacking in other areas? I find the liars, those pretending to be something they are not etc can’t be trusted in any area.

The expression of trusting a thief over a liar is an instructive one.

Some are of course too dishonest and unattractive to have a partner in the first place.

Always be suspicious of the morally outraged protesting too much. They are usually the least trustworthy and honest people you will ever come across.
