it's milo
Actually looks like him.


Also:
President Donald Trump said Monday the U.S. is "looking to" add as many as 75 million barrels of oil to the Strategic Petroleum Reserve. Trump spoke after an historic day in the oil CL.1, 18.76% markets, in which the May WTI crude contract closed at -$37.63 a barrel, a one-day drop of 306%. Trump said he was considering the move "based on the record low price of oil," and that the action would "top it out." Speaking at a White House press briefing, Trump said, "we'd get it for the right price."

There's no way the death toll is going to under 60,000 as the Trumpster reckons. I wouldn't be surprised if it's nearer the original 100k estimate, especially the way the dumb Americans are behaving at the moment.
It is going to surpass that number by this weekend (or early next week), and it is not clear if we have reached the peak yet. A good rule of thumb would be that when you reach the peak, multiply it by 2 and add some. The US is gonna surpass 100k deaths, absolutely no doubt about that.
 
Even his favourite pollster Rasmussen can not save him at the moment.

The Rasmussen Reports daily Presidential Tracking Poll for Wednesday shows that 44% of Likely U.S. Voters approve of President Trump’s job performance. Fifty-five percent (55%) disapprove.
 
Trump is an absolute thundercnut. It’s scary how his minions hold onto his every word & support him no matter what. Brain dead the lot of them.
 
The next president who can't win square will copy his playbook and gets elected.

The problem with USA goes beyond trump, trump isn't a solitary incident, he actually kinda represents 45% (?) of Americans, and he act/talk exactly what the 45% wants. So this problem ain't gonna simply go away with Trump, it's there to stay.
 
Oil is cheaper than water and somehow fracking is still a thing. Conservative economics at its finest.

You do realise that fracking was started way before the Oil price dropped and you can't just turn oil sources off like a lightswitch?

Plus fracking was about to end anyway since the prognosed longevity of it is way shorter than the studies anticipated.

I do and I also realize that the viability of fracking depends on those same oil prices, so the ones that survived after the Saudis opened the taps in 2014, will go bust now.

I think Europeans have to take some responsibility if he gets re elected and continue on this path.
The big three of UK, Germany and France are big enough to stand up to him. Without these three countries USA can't stand alone. Neither the Russians nor the Chinese are able to do anything military to the EU. Russia is not the USSR and China doesn't have the capacity to fight with anyone big. So if they tell Trump to feck off the powers at the US would most probably get rid of him.

And this is based on...?

I’d like to see what ‘studies’ you were reading that are showing it was about to end, because even if Donald is replaced it won’t end anytime soon.

There are no studies showing that fracking is ending. It is simple economics as the fracking oil-wells have proven themselves to not be as yielding as expected by quite the margin. Thus there are barely any profits in it and it will naturally fade away - as long as oil doesn't become too expensive and it becomes worthwhile again.
 
Good lord, he talks about naming sources to journos then he always brings out the line "nobody thought this could be done" or "people are unhappy about such and such" without naming a single source and when questioned, he talks in a bloody circle.

It's an incredible achievement to be honest. Someone like Orwell thought that controlling the media and altering facts in hindsight was the way to achieve this. However the GOP (not Trump) have realised that they can control the narrative by just denouncing things as untrue. He can say something and then say he never did and despite evidence he did there is a certain subset who will choose to believe he didn't. It's excellent in so many ways. We live in the information age and they have succeeded in altering reality for a big population of people. Oh they're 'uneducated' you say but who were the ones to ensure that they're uneducated? It's an incredible long game played by the GOP and really puts to shame the DNC in so many ways. They have built an absolute animal while the DNC have spent their time targeting the 'too left' of their own party.
 
Hand on heart who among us wouldn't open a bottle of bubbly or beer if this man got it? Maybe a caff poll. I jest but I think this man is the most dangerous person I've known in my lifetime,yes I'm tipsee but feck it I'd cheer to the rooftops.

I don't wish ill on anyone but I hope he gets it and rots in hell. There's a select band of people that I would openly admit to revelling in their misfortune, Piers Morgan and Katie Hopkins are others that come to mind.

Don't normally agree with Morgan but he has been spot on with scrutiny of the Government throughout this process and has asked the questions other journalists haven't.

I don't think the Europeans have any responsibility if he gets re-elected. Those 3 countries, even if you added their 3 combined GDPs (even ignoring the fact that their policies don't necessarily align on many issues), still have less than half the GDP of the USA. Their 3 combined military spends are also significantly less than China's and approximately 1/4 of the USA's. Not to mention that all the soft power they wield in global institutions as well.

If they tell Trump to feck off, he and the USA could do a lot more damage to those 3 countries than they could do him and the USA. Its fantasy to think otherwise.

This is a crock. Yanks hate it when Europeans tell them what to do.

They got into this mess, they have to get themselves out of it. But feck me, Joe Biden isn't the answer.

Call me ageist if you like, but Biden will be 78 in November this year, surely that is too old to do what is probably the most stressful job in the world?
He is approaching the age where he'll need an afternoon nap ffs.
 
Geopolitics.

Foxbatt I usually agree with much of what you say but why would rival powerful countries want the US to strengthen by encouraging them to install a decent leader instead of continually weakening it with a clown?

I don't really get why the only real candidates are over 70 over there.
 
Just saw a comment in that tweet that Bill Barr 'will ensure the DOJ sides with the people' if restrictions are too harsh. What about the flip side, can state governors be sued by families of dead people because restrictions were not harsh enough as per basic WHO recommendations? Which way would the DOJ lean for those un-American traitor bastards? Oh wait, I think I inadvertantly answered that myself.

Yes if you look at it at that angle I agree with you. But to the others about the GDP being too high to compare with the three EU countries, it doesn't work that way anymore. What keeps the US is the dollars. The moment the dollar loses its prominence USA is going to be in trouble.
They may be the world's strongest military but any President of USA if they try to attack Europe is going to be put out of office instantly.
But to keep a buffoon in office they must also have to look for an end result.
I agree that Biden is not the best choice but maybe the only choice at this moment in time to get rid of Trump.
I know how Trump will debate him. Trump will not answer any questions truthfully and just go on saying what he wants to say and Biden would forget the whole thing and say something else that has got nothing to do with it.
Surely Americans can get a better president than these two?
