Is this the one that the alleged victim isnt reporting but that a few of her friends are claiming she told them about an incident after the fact?

I know Trump will be a c@nt an utterly disastrous for America but I'm kind of hoping he he wins because the democrats, particularly Biden, have been so utterly f#caking useless in relation to the ongoing genocide in Gaza etc. The US deserves a severe beating with the shitty stick.

If u think Trump be a plus for Gaza situation, you mad.

He will be a disaster for Gaza situation but will be worse for the US than a democrat president. f**k them, they deserve it.

Plenty of Palestinians died during his reign as well, he then moved the US Embassy to Jerusalem, he's a Zionist also, make no mistake about that.

Who gets to decide what statements should be fact-checked?

You either fact check everything or nothing. There's no middle ground.

So what if they did fact check them both continuously in the background and only found one lying?

It's not about what they deserve it's what the majority will want.

We mostly hear Dems on Irish media and you hear Donald Trump does not represent the USA. Not what it's about, etc. But he is!

Like. Every country has issues but the fact that it's too close to call with all the stuff he has said and done shows that the voters don't care.

them mysterons are always killing me but im grand after a few days.sickenin aul dose all the same.

Trump is a c**t and would be a disaster. But f**k I'd find it hard to cheer on a dem president at the minute too. It's a settling for the least worst, which is a disgrace.

That pretty much sums it all up!

Look-Up!

Harris is too much the politician to go against the grain and Israelis on the Gaza issue. Doubtful Trump will either, but he's thick enough to do so if the notion took him.

I don't think people in Ireland realize just how bad a job Biden and Harris have done

Someone who testified AGAINST Trump during the 2019 impeachment and who came out against him after January 6th said the following just this week

"Melber pulled up a clip of Sondlad saying he was done supporting Trump following the Jan. 6 Capitol riot and asked him if he still felt the same way.

"No, I don't stand by it and I'll tell you why," he said while sitting beside other former Trump administration officials Peter Navarro and Sarah Matthews.

"I've now lived four years under the Biden-Harris policies and I have to say that those policies are not only becoming an existential threat to our country's way of life, but to our allies as well," he continued"

While this should be front page news, so far it's just the Daily Mail and NY Post reporting  on it

Republican "mega donor".

Have the NY Post been headlining the literally dozens and dozens of former Trump cabinet members and military leaders who have refused to support him and stated they'll vote for Harris?

That's usually the case to some degree with US presidents.

That said, I'd be resting a lot easier if Harris was up against a "normal" GOP politician like Haley or Youngkin or Christie instead of a megalomaniacal wannabe dictator without a shred of decency or humanity, but with four years of experience behind him and not reliant on the "guardrail" normal GOP appointees who thwarted, somewhat, his most outrageous tendencies last time out. This time, he'll be firing thousands of career professional civil servants and resuming the spoils system of the nineteenth century, placing hacks and Trump loyalists all through the government to do his bidding. And if he wins, it will probably come with a GOP senate, so they'll usher these changes and whatever other loyal-to-Trump-first clowns he wants to appoint right through. There'll be no one quietly applying the brakes like so often apparently happened last time out when some crazy notion overtook him.

And that before you even get into what he's actually proposing to do. If someone like me is nervous, what are people in places like Ukraine or migrants in the US feeling?
