I'm old enough to remember and be fooled by NIXON'S SECRET PLAN TO END THE VIETNAM WAR. WE ARE NOT FOOLED. THERE IS NO REPUBLICAN HEALTH PLAN, which they have been working on since 2015. LOL

Yes. His daddy dear taught him well. I'm reading "LUCKY LOSER" 450+ pages and I'm only a few pages into it and can already see the resemblance.

Yup, all the felon has done is divide the country and tear down the institutions we all depend upon, incite a coup and other crimes and get away with it all!!

Thank you for paying attention.

Too many in our country just bury their heads in the sand.

How can people pretend this is not happening? I just don't get it.

Canadian here...and like you I don't get it either...the indifference, lack of action, just watching the descent into dictatorship happen in slo mo...weasel Stephen Miller will pull the trigger on the Insurrection Act giving Trump unlimited plenary powers before the end of the year unless you&your fellow Americans push back. Get cracking! Otherwise in fascist slug Trump's world Canada will be the Ukraine to America's Russia. Is that what you want?

I agree 100% with you but, sadly, Americans are majority stupid, dumb, imbecilic, cretinous, moronic twats. I'm in the UK and sadly can't help America, but Canada has stood by and supported Britain in our hours of need and I hope and pray that we would do the same for you if the need ever arises.

It could be 1812 all over again….but this time you don’t have to burn the White House - Trump is destroying it by himself, ha…

The UK returning a WWII favour to Canada to fend off a former Allie, it beggars belief.

I have come to think that tearing down the East Wing of the White House is part of Mt. Trump's little revenge plan. It wouldn't come as a big surprise to me if his ballroom was never completed, and the $250 million he demanded for the construction of the ballroom went straight into his pocket (it probably will anyway).

He was always a traitor, a mobster scumbag, serving Putin, MBS and other tyrants. Smashing the White House would have caused them to cheer.

It's ironic that the symbol for the Democratic party is a donkey, because that Republican elephant (you know -- the one with the orange makeup) is looking more and more like an ass every day. :)

From Australia, we heartily agree with you. The Trump regime is a disgrace, a smear upon the free world, and a boon for our autocratic foes. A lot of Americans are doing their best under horrific circumstances, but it's not enough. Their more powerful corporate elites, along with fearful conservatives, need to learn from history: siding with a dictator will not protect their wealth. Quite the opposite. Kleptocrats, such as Putin, eventually take over companies, jail the owners, and absorb the profit for themselves.

Another Canadian watching in terrorised disbelief!

But we, in the rest of what is eft of the free world, have been warning Americans of what has been evident to us from the get-go (talking even before his first term), but thy didn't believe us. Everything (and more and even worse than) what we predicted and warned against has, unfortunately, come to pass.

I say "terrorised disbelief" in the sense of what it feels like to be geographically located immediately adjacent to this massive evil.

An auto parts manufacturer is laying off 80+ employees due to uncertainty within the industry. World wide companies aren't asking for their components, getting them elsewhere. Working in this industry myself, we always knew we were one of many manufacturing businesses, around the world, making similar parts. Many companies reporting major losses in profits this quarter. That isn't fake news.

I have always wondered why the USA stands by and allows China to take over much of our manufacturing. In fact it encouraged it by letting China join the WTO and ignores copy and patent rights. In no way can we compete just on labor costs alone.

In a perfect world, economically every country would do what they does best . But it is not a perfect world. Allowing one country to destroy the productive capacity of another is a recipe for disaster. We are seeing the fallout of that now.

China now takes USA products, copies it and sells is in direct competition to the original product on Amazon. So much for quality control.

The automotive parts example is perfect. I needed an alternator for my car. All I can find is Chinese made/refurbed. No idea what the quality is. The price is not all that cheap as there is no meaningful competition.

Back in the 1970s my 90 yr old grandmother was very politically savvy and she read the newspaper cover to cover daily with her 8th grade education. She told me then that China would bury us but from within....amazing prophecy and amazing woman! She was right!

No one knows the future, but it appears the Chinese are on the leading edge of it. They have an inexaustible supply of money to buy whatever they want. They have unbelieveable productive capacity and cheap labor. What they cannot buy they just steal and make it cheaper and sell it back to us.

We keep hoping that human rights and the rule of law will save us, but now, not so sure.

Thanks, real eye opener. Those who ignore history, doomed to repeat it.

No doubt USA is overcommitted in every area. No one wants to sacrifice, so in the end it will be forced upon us.

I was wondering how to pay the national debt. What great timing. We have the master of bankrupcies as President. It appears he aims to use this skill throwing money (we do not have) to Argentina at the expense of farmers and ranchers. They will demand another bailout like they got in his first presidential term.

What happens when the interest on the debt exceeds all income? Our bank account savings, investments in the stock market and all other assets could well be confiscated.

I recommend reading 'Autocracy, Inc' by Anne Applebaum, who contends that we are no longer dealing with separate enemies. That was last century. This time it's not about religion or race or even politics. It's about corruption. Sure, Russia and China are leading the carnage, with their proxies doing damage, but as you say, it's also happening from within democracies or semi-autocracies sliding back & forth. Soft power did not work. That was an illusion. Time to organise ourselves against disinformation, smear campaigns, money laundering etc. We need to do it in a united, systematic way: Australia, Canada, New Zealand, South Korea, Japan, Scandinavia and so on. Britain needs to rejoin the EU (Putin funded BREXIT) and clean up its monarchy / oligarchy. As for America …

Yes I believe world is run in parallel with good and mafia evil. Want evidence of money laundering. Go to Amazon search for recliner chairs, sort on high dollar to low. You will be shocked at the astronomical prices. It is the same for all products. Ebay is the same if you look up anything high to low. It is so obvious that even cheap junk is sold at sky high prices. I found someone selling a paint brush for $215k. Seriously????

And thank YOU for being with us today. I look forward to the full programme that you outlined; yes, please DO keep it.

WONDERFUL NEWS that Canada has said tootle-loo (British expression meaning "bye bye") to your president.

KEEP SAFE and KEEP REAL!

(Aside re keeping real: There is a new article in the scientific journal _Nature_ reporting the detection of "fake scientists" having published actual articles in actual journals and having served as "peer reviewers" of real manuscripts submitted for real publication. The scientific community had better be scared silly by this hurry-up-quick and the general population should be terrified by this. I fear that my former colleagues may have waited too long to deal with this [delusionally thinking that AI is such a handy little innocent tool to make their lives easier and faster so that they don't even have to think anymore]. SIGH!)

They are also overturning Biden’s pardons and executive orders siting he was to mentally impaired and by using the autopen wasnt well enough informed.

While this diabolically hypocritical it does leave the door open for reversing everything Trump has signed and those pardoned due to severe cognitive impairment.

On another note what if working people from all levels and position call in sick on Nov. 1 in solidarity to their country and all if its vulnerable citizens. The GOP are playing chicken with hunger and homelessness. Call them on their bluff. They cant fire everyone, they cant arrest everyone, they cant survive without the citizens labor AI or not.
