Someone has had another shot at Trump while he was playing golf.

Got to suspect false flaggery here (and the ping in the lug previously) with the Republicans being collectively round the twist and their gaffers more evil than a bástard child of Beelzebub and Norman Tebbit’s ma.

He's hoping his ratings will receive a shot in the arm.
If they manage to assassinate him, I'd think he'd be a "stick on" for president.

Someone really doesn't want Trump to be president. What will be the next plot twist in the batsh!t crazy 2024 election season?

My two brothers are disciples of Trump, Farage and Neil Oliver to name just three.

I'm not sure if it's connected with the oil industry and the sense of entitlement that it brings for many in it.

Absolutely connected. Ran into loads of them over the years. Theres also the fact that many in it are complete spuds who can’t quite believe the money they’re on, so get very protective of it. This leads to hating lefties, greens, immigrants, scientists, wokerati (whatever the f*ck that is) & anyone else who could potentially threaten the gravy train. They’re like putty for a grifting right wing w@nker

None taken.

I think you hit the nail on the head with your observations.

Another couple of sweeping generalisations of oil workers. Once the new build with the grey furniture, the 4 x 4 & the tattoo sleeves have been purchased, a lot of them run out of ideas about what to spend the cash on. For all you housewives looking in, the answer is usually cocaine & brass cookers

See while they’re working away, posting on Facebook about missing a kids birthday or a family wedding? Chances are they’re hanging out the back of an Angolan prostitute

You also missed out the Thai Wife.

I know quite a few that have Thai Wives and you can tell by looking at them together that it was really love at first sight and nothing to do with money.
