He’s still got foetus so he’ll be ok. :-)

He’s lost that **** Candice



Even the nastiest, twattiest worms are turning.

If he loses Murdoch he's bollixed. Be interesting to see how his finances look then as well. Maybe he's grifted enough to tide him over at this stage but he's fairly fucking deep in debt and bar his brand doesn't really have many assets. I wouldn't be loaning him any money anyway.

Does his brand count as an asset? I’d say it was a huge liability.

Caveat emptor, bitches. You bought him. We told you not to. We told you everything Trump touches dies. But you didn't listen. Not only that, you told us we suffered from Trump Derangement Syndrome, that we only thought Orange Man Bad, among other bullshit memes. You did it for years. Well, you own all this now. If he ignores you, runs anyway as an independent and splits the party in two, embarrasses you, shits on your favo(u)red candidates, supports more violence against innocents -- too bad. You prostrated yourselves at his feet. You sucked his tiny little schlong. You were the beads to his anus. That's on you. No returns allowed. Sorry not sorry, you dumbfucks.

You didn’t vote for him then?

Thanks Bayern.
I knew most of that but not the cycle of the Senate or the House.
Also didn’t fully understand bathe Presidents veto.

It still seems slightly convoluted but at least there are checks and balances in power.

No problem. I should add that the US Supreme Court has the power of judicial review. So if Congress passes a law that could be deemed unconstitutional, the it can be taken to the Supreme Court to be challenged.

If the Supreme Court(which at the moment has 6 conservative aka. Republican judges out of 9)votes it as unconstitutional then it will be repealed.

Brilliant. Send this to Biden’s speechwriter. This should be his next address :)

Checks and balances are fine but, given that the incumbent party nearly always gets a kicking in the mid-terms, this system seems set up for almost semi-permanent gridlock, particularly when, as now, the parties can't agree on anything.

I don’t know about the UK, but in the US if you really want to see change in your life/community it will have to take place in your local government. That’s is where a lot of power is had. From zoning rights to build affordable housing(or not to build them), bike lanes on your roads, stop signs, what your schools teach your kids, law enforcement, or even school lunches. Your state legislatures, local county council, or city council is where you get that stuff down.

Relying on change in the federal government usually takes way too long if not impossible in the US.

Here are two good examples.
