Ok, not football at all, but it matters, eventually.

[WTF11]

Ok I know that it's going to be covered elsewhere but for my (many), sins I watched the Trump v Harris tv debate.

Is it remotely possible that the great American public would ever consider the election to the most powerful head of state the most abysmal, racist, mysoginistic individual I have had the misfortune to witness (and no, I'm not talking about Harris!)

[WTF11]

And being the US of A they can't do 90 minutes without an advert break, laughable!.

[WTF11]

OMFG, this comb-over makes Boris look like Einstein (on steroids)!

[WTF11]

If.the American public buy the sh1t that we have seen from this deluded blonde comb-over, then god help the rest of the world.

Might want to stay in your lane on this one.

It's obvious you haven't studied the policies and the track record of both. I'll save you some time. One has has no policies and no track record of legislation. Her videos and interviews show an extreme socialist belief system along with a total ban of fracking as well as no limitation on abortion and public funding of it as well as paying for *** change operations. These policies are considered extreme by the majority of Americans. It's fine if you believe that, but then state that position as a candidate. The other candidates policies are spelled out in detail and there is a 4 year track record of those in practice. You might also want to note that during his 4 years we didn't have a single war or "police action" started.

The option is someone who's primary attribute involves Parisian street walker skills. She is a babbling cackling fool that pretends to be black while her grandfather owned 200 slaves that were forced to worked a sugar cane plantation. She has never had an original thought or policy in her life. She is just a tool for her masters. I know it will stun you but no one in my extended family ever owned a slave and I'm not aware of a single American who's family owned a slave. it's an extremely small percentage of the population and only involved the most affluent land owners of the day. She probably represents less than 1% of the population having a family member that owned a slave.

The real question is, with a population of over 200 million eligible candidates for president we ended up with these two as our choice. They are both reprehensible candidates for one of the most powerful leaders in the world. It's obvious that someone else is picking who they want for high offices in this country.

And yes, whether you hate America or not, a world leader without competence or leadership skills will end up affecting the entire world eventually.

All I know is one has failed miserably at the only job she had and the world is so much closer to the big third world, which will be something never seen before. In the past we had one or 2 mad man causing it now they are all over and all willing to pull the button.
The other comes across as an evil tokenistic arrogant arsehole but only job he had was keeping the world safe, which is a surprise as he did, also comes across as an idiot. If this is where politics is heading the world is fd. Corrupt , idiocy and non effectiveness spell doom.

"Might want to stay in your lane", aka shut the f00k up because its the good old US of A and not the UK or Europe?

As you were kind enough to acknowledge in your last sentence a world leader without competence or leadership skills will end up affecting the entire world eventually, so what offerings are on display as a result of the two parties primary results is of some import to the rest of us, I would suggest?

I hold no brief for Harris, however I would imagine that "no limits on abortion" don't reflect her views (or you would suggest execution of infants born at nine-months is fact?), and as for fracking, apart from Pennsylvania which has a major interest in the technique I suspect the majority of the states would be quite happy to see that particular fossil fuel extraction technique, with its known impact on groundwater pollution and equally well documented effects on the stability of the underlying rock structures, consigned to the same short term future as oil, gas and coal. No, I'm no environment evangelist, but even the orange comb-over has acknowledged that we, the human race, are creating unsustainable climate change (despite his being bought and sold by the petro chemicals industry via the contributions to his campaign funds).

Public funding for s e x change operations. In 2019, just over 13,000 such operations took place, always after consultation and counselling, and always after the causes of gender dysmorphia were investigated and understood (as much as that is possible). In 2020, in the United States, there were more than 300,000 procedures involving breast augmentation and reconstruction surgeries. You would suggest that neither should be subject to public funding, so women having undergone mastectomy operations should fund reconstructive surgery themselves? Get a grip. If publicly funded s e x change operations was the biggest problem for anywhere including the USA, we'd all be a f00king sight happier. And his record during his brief tenure at the White House? Enjoying the benefits bestowed upon him by his predecessor, and a period of relative calm in the world BEFORE he took office, he oversaw the crumbling and dissolution of the relative stability in Afghanistan and his catastrophic non-handover to Biden led directly (ask some of the military there at the time) to the chaos in Kabul and directly or otherwise to the deaths of American service personnel and many Afghans who worked with those forces for many years. And he managed to do that without having to deal with a worldwide pandemic and subsequently the Russian invasion of Ukraine (God only knows how things would have turned out had he won a second term).

And FFS are we never going to put the issue of a 200-year old wrong behind us? Slavery was bad, agreed. Some who benefitted from slavery continue to do so, also bad. Harris isn't one of them, neither are many of those in the country who have nonetheless been castigated by "Black Lives Matter" activists and that castigation has formed the basis for retaliatory action by far right extremists. Just when will all that stop? Perhaps when we ALL decide that were are responsible for our actions and how treat each other NOW, not for those who we may or not be related to some 200 years (and longer) ago! Trumps racist actions show no signs of even understanding what the solutions might be, only of fomenting discord as he has before, during and after the debate, which has led directly to bomb threats being made against locations in Ohio which in turn has led to schools being evacuated and closed.

Harris isn't perfect, such a human doesn't exist. However of the two candidates for the Presidency, the risks she represents, either to the people of the USA or to those in the rest of the world pale into insignificance when compared to Trump, and the exodus of Republican support by senior, respected, serious individuals from ALL walks of life who have publicly denounced him and his "policies", shows that at last the Republican party and its grass roots supporters have finally woken up and smelled the coffee.

I don't say this flippantly, as for one, I love America, but God save the United States of America, consign Trump to the dustbin of history.

Enough of "staying in my lane"?
