I wonder if Dax is on the piss.

He told us all what would happen and no one fuckin listened.

You've still voted for a rapist though.
 
Spot-on. GDP is a false measure of a country's wealth. If you strip out the City of London impact from the UK figures the rest of the country includes some of the poorest regions in Europe. The pundits are always quoting figures that the UK is "one of the wealthiest countries in the world." Not for the 55 million people who live outside the South East bubble it isn't. Even GDP per capita is not a true reflection of the situation.
GDP is a highly inaccurate guess at economic activity, based on a sample. It does not distinguish between different types of activity. For example £1 of activity in manufacturing is treated the same as £1 spent to resurface a road.

Brilliant point.
 
He was using "bills" in its widest possible sense, obviously.

He will probably say in a year's time, that there are no bills outstanding and no-one else could have done it.

Much like he will probably impose 5% tariffs on selected Chinese goods and claim it is funding all his new wall as promised.

It's impossible to take what he says literally. Or at all, actually.
Fair enough. I made the mistake of forgetting he only spoke fiction.
 
Trump had 4 years and all these bad things that were supposed to happen to LGBT people didn't happen

Just like all those wars that he was supposed to start never happened.

A lot of people just like to make it about themselves for attention, especially when it was shown before he's not really going after LGBT people, so you will be OK, just like before.
I’m guessing here, but I’ll venture you don’t live in the States and are not LGBTQ+ and neither is anyone in your family.

There is some truth to this, but the difference now is that in 2016 he had some child minders in the room at all times, now he’s got lackeys and yes men.
 
So, her position is now “void”?! It’s nonsense! Step down and then what? Who becomes Prez & VP? We just let them start before Jan 20??

It’s not like going to your desk with an empty box and being walked out by security, ffs!
Theres plenty of people high enough that serious decisions can be made if necessary! If she couldn’t face her own supporters how the hell do you expect her to face the general public for two months

His words enable others to discriminate, whether the law is changed or not.
 
Well lets make it clearer , people are making out every female is disappointed with Trump winning. This is not the case though is it ? He still received a massive vote from women.

As for the democrats they have been destroyed all over the show. A VP declaring she will be a president for every American yet has no decency to even come and address her thousands of supporters that turned up. Speaks volumes
What do you tell them when the vote is close, but not official?

I’m going to go out on a limb and suggest you’re just not used to American elections and what does and does not happen at these things.

Should she have waited until about 6am, when the NYT called it, and thanked the 8 people still there for staying?

She had a campaign official come out and say there would be no speech tonight…because there was no speech to give, and I expect one to be given today.

However, your extrapolation is both petty and naive, but you do you when you’re Vice President and you’ve just lost a ridiculously consequential election!

Or, maybe she should have come out, tell the world that Trump is only the SECOND OLD WHITE MAN to have fucked the country this election cycle, because Biden fucked us first when he ran again, even after intimating he wouldn’t, and then created a situation where there was only one person who COULD really run, because they were the one with access to all the money!

Why does it bother you so much. Biden will stay as President, Harris will stay as Vice President, then they'll move on for the two twats that will take over.

Not worth getting yourself worked up about it.
 
A national ban is an “effective” ban.
It also means there aren’t enough doctors trained to do the procedure, which can be a lifesaving measure even when there is not a pregnancy. Even in blue New England, there are plenty of doctors who won’t do the procedure (completely acceptable). I had an abortion for fetal anomalies that were incompatible with a “normal” life and it took several days to find a doctor who would do the procedure (my doctor did not due to her religious beliefs). This was at one of the best hospitals in the world in a very blue state.

Won’t Biden stage an insurrection?
 
I think the democrats kind of took for granted women and ethnic minority voters. It was almost as if they thought surely because we have a black woman they’ll vote for harris.

Seems like women and ethnic minority males didn’t turn out at all for them. I was reading a stat that said a third of ethnic minority voters voted for trump
