Oh the irony.... "But the fact is that an opinion expressed with little or no basis in fact is either: 1. Ignorant 2. Stupid 3. Predicated upon prejudice." You are aware that this is just your opinion, not based on fact Thank you. You have just proved my point.

Trump will win the republican nomination and probably the presidency, British politicians should be meeting and deciding how Trump2 will effect Britain and how to take advantage of it.

So, Going back to policies, Trump Vs Biden. The actuality "The US economy expanded in the fourth quarter by more than forecast, powered by resilient consumer spending that helped cap the strongest year of growth since 2021." US GDP Grew at a 3.3% Rate in Fourth Quarter, Capping Solid Year assets.bwbx.io/s3/readings/S7RP1TDWX2PS1706189670977.mp3Not bad for an old bloke, especially compared to the utterings of Don "Corleone" Trump.

It's known as the James O'Brien principle. A person of left leaning politics and well educated, attempts to humiliate and belittle people who have the audacity to express a different view point. Rather than encouraging anyone to 're-think', this strategy emboldens the opposite view and makes the opposing view more extreme. You can see this playing out in the US right now. The more vicious the attacks on Trump and his supporters, the more they feel persecuted, and the more popular Trump becomes. Trump is surfing a wave of popularity due in no small part to the frothing at the mouth Democrats trying to bring him down. Cue Alanis Morisette. "And isn't it ironic, don't ya think?" It's a great story. But the fact is that an opinion expressed with little or no basis in fact is either: 1. Ignorant 2. Stupid 3. Predicated upon prejudice. Happy to receive a fact based rebuttal... Google search. 5 seconds later. www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-us-canada-66274979 Note this is from August last year. Trump is now in a far stronger position.

Or more to the point, those Republicans of that leaning, they are numerous after all. Like a lot of sheep who react to a barking dog, it's tough to apply reason.

They were discussing it on lbc news this morning ( yes some of us do work on a Sunday , 7 days a week ) . The top political analyst from the USA said it would be no issue for trump to pay the fine , I assume now you think you know more that a top political analyst from the USA 🙄, Christ you do have a high opinion of yourself , one I don’t share by the way As for my fractured English , I was up at 1 am this morn ( sun ) as normal , after doing a 80 hr week ,yet again ,7 days , I’m really tired, What manual / working class work have you done this week ( not stats ) just hours , time you got up etc etc , you keep telling us what a state the uk is in , so I’m sure you’ll be 80 + hours , midnight starts , not .

I guess there is a fine line between ignorance and stupidity " People also ask What military conflict was in 2016? In 2016, at least 49 armed conflicts occurred on the territory of 28 states and territories: Afghanistan, Azerbaijan, Colombia, Cyprus, the Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC), Egypt, Eritrea, Georgia, Iraq, India, Lebanon, Libya, Mali, Moldova, Myanmar, Nigeria, Pakistan, Palestine, the Philippines, Somalia, Etc etc

Well, don't say "oh dear"! Am I right? Are you seriously going to define violent conflict by choice of faith?
