I’m sure being there is ok but getting there is a pain in the arse. It was bad enough a year ago pre Trump and the price of beer was extortionate then. Not going to be any cheaper now.Was in New York a few weeks ago and it was fine. It was a wonderful experience and the people were as friendly as I've come to expect. I think most US citizens have insulated themselves from Trump's bullshit, probably for their own mental well-being; but were the opposite true, the trick would be to not mention politics.
Yeah but I’m happy to buy you one anyhow! :)I’m sure being there is ok but getting there is a pain in the arse. It was bad enough a year ago pre Trump and the price of beer was extortionate then. Not going to be any cheaper now.
Yes its true.I seen summat that says Trump was given a gift from Swiss officials.....a 1kg gold bar and a custom made Rolex clock.
Then suddenly cuts their tariffs from 39% to 15%.
Anybody know if this is true?
You say most, but they reelected him around a year ago knowing what he was like.Was in New York a few weeks ago and it was fine.

Works the other way of course, tha tariff money which he sees as his own is being part used to appease soya farmers who are now unable to export to China I think.I seen summat that says Trump was given a gift from Swiss officials.....a 1kg gold bar and a custom made Rolex clock.

Nothing new I suppose in political bribery.
if he takes the economy down and the rest of the world goes with it, as it probably will, then whether you live from day to day or you have investments in pension funds, ISA's etc, you're fucked. This is the nuclear option I was aware of, but being unable to do much about it, applied Ostrich Approach when calculating whether I could afford to retire.I was watching France 24 last night and they did a report on the US economy and how a lot of the richest people there are preparing for economic crash.
Companies and their owners moving some of their assets from Dollars to the Euro to protect against it. As well as investing in Gold etc.
The worry is if Trump takes the US down the economic shitter we all go down with it. As in all of us who can't afford to invest/save and living from payday to payday.
True, but I suspect a lot of them will have buyer's remorse.You say most, but they reelected him around a year ago knowing what he was like.

I already owe you a few!Yeah but I’m happy to buy you one anyhow! :)
There must be another backhander as well. A kilo of gold is about $138k and the watch will be a few thousand. Trump would be after a figure in the millions I would imagine.True.
It’s not like they weren’t adequately warned.True, but I suspect a lot of them will have buyer's remorse.
Even if they won't admit it.
Difficult with their head in the echo chamber.It’s not like they weren’t adequately warned.
Even if they do, so many won’t renounce the GOP, a party now filled to the brim with either despicable moral cowards or unqualified craven power-thirsty idiot lunatics, or laughably naive otherwise-statespeople who have proven to have had a fatal blind spot when it comes to understanding who Trump was until it was far too late. I can count the number of prominent Republicans who don’t fall in one of these categories on one hand. This has nothing to do with my or their politics — I’ve voted for some of them in past. It is beyond belief.True, but I suspect a lot of them will have buyer's remorse.
