    This time he's got the benefit of a transparently partisan Supreme Court and a dodgy decision stating that acts he takes while acting as President are immune from prosecution.

    Buckle up...

    Lets not fall into the right wing trap of calling their politicians by their first name... Or in Johnsons case, not even his first name. They aren't your friends, they aren't on your side.

    And nice to see Johnson was sacked last night by C4 (though why they invited him on is beyond me) as he relentlessly plugged his book every time he was asked anything. But it served as a helpful reminder of what he values more than anything else, himself.

    America fails the world once more.

    A Trump presidency, a republican senate, a republican house (most likely but not confirmed) and a justice of 6-3 and likely 7-2 as one of the remaining liberals has poor health. Frightening.

    Only official acts - same as every other president. Its how Bush got away with murdering loads of people in the middle east...

    Anything unlawful not within official business, i.e rape, would still be a criminal act- its certainly gunna be an 'interesting' (...) 4 years :mad::confused:

    Obviously I don’t condone it but i genuinely believe he won’t last that long, all it will take is another loon with a gun and we can see that there’s millions of those in the good ol’ US of A

    You know what, I didnt want to say it but I thought the same. Its scary because I can only imagine what will happen if that scenario comes to fruition from the other side. I'm more angry than upset because I expected this resultt, I just don't understand why they didn't just have a primary.

    The American education system has a lot to answer for, collectively the Yanks are as stupid as stupid can get.
    The world is a far more dangerous place today than it was yesterday.

    RFK was responsible for 2-300 kids dying in American Samoa after persuading their parents not to have measles shots. The entire country had to go into lockdown in 2019 as a result.

    Prices going down is not a good thing. Deflation is only slightly worse than stagflation in terms of a major economy. You ideally need inflation at a controlled low rate matched by wage rises.

    Obviously, some prices will fall over time - electronics, phones, etc. - but if all prices fall, you at looking at wages having to fall to support "profits" for the stock market. And poorer paid people have less money to spend, so the economy spirals downwards.

    He'll be out within 2 years due to old age, he's getting more senile daily, you could see that in his rants. Vance will be in then.

    Like you I don't condone it, but if there is another attempt may I suggest a body shot, a bullet to the head would pass straight through without touching anything.

    Looking bad for the US, Democracy and the World. No chance now of avoiding 4C temperature rise by the end of the century.

    Unless there's some sort of miracle and all the remaining votes go for Harris.
