Yep. Just further proof that democracy is failing. All elections are rigged against our most powerful Leaders! Dictators rule! We may as well just let them do so.

Re: The Lula - Bolsonaro situation. A US senator Shane Jett (R) has announced:-

 

"Brazil will be on the path to be Venezuela 2.0. May god destroy the wicked and perverse with hellfire..."

 

Not strong on diplomacy, eh?

Sounds a bit suicidal, a Republican wishing for hellfire on the wicked and perverse

Yes, it occured to me that he didn't think that comment through.

 

Methinks they are letting too many religious zealots into their government.

Just like IRAN?  I want Freedom FROM Religion. Keep it OUT of Politics. Nev

It has been very quiet on the forums lately. Are we holding our collective breaths for the results?

Hawaii, which would be the last State to close its polling booths, is 21 hours behind Sydney.  At 10:00 am  Wednesday 4/11/26 Sydney time it is 1:00pm Tuesday 3/11/26 Hawaiian time. So we wont see any voteing results until about 9:00pm Wednesday Sydney time. 

 

Exhale and take another deep breath.

I only hold my breath Underwater and when I walk past someone who is vaping or has Farted. Had Men's shed today.  Someone started Talking Politics and even a how to vote card. Not good. Nev

It is ironic that discussing politics should not be a taboo activity. I will admit that one has to be very, very diplomatic when discussing the topic with a person you sense has differing views.

It has come out that the Trump Administration has been working for several months in developing procedures to employ should the Republicans lose both Houses. His minions have been seeking work-arounds so that Trump can control the administration of Government.

He is a Dick-tator by Nature. who is used to getting his way or He tosses all the toys out of the Pram. Nev

Donald Trump was speaking about Donna Arthur, estranged mother of Democratic nominee Amy Acton, who has been charged with killing 3 kittens by leaving them in a hot vehicle. I missed the first part of the conversation but he commented on the poor bringing up of Acton, "not like my mother." Then he looked up and said :thank you,Mum."

 

The camera switched back to Jon Stewart on the Daily Show. He looked up and repeated, "Thank you,Mum.", then looked down at the floor and said, "You too, Dad."

Trump and the GOP are not having a good day so far, but I wonder what they're plotting.

[Kyle Communications]

Well we will be living in interesting times now. Trump will be a lame duck now for 2 years and the Dems will spend all their time and energy going after him. The comment about relious zealots is so true..the Dems are full of them. I think the world will now be in some worse chaos now. The only upside maybe that we come up better against the US currency. Their stock markets are falling a lot now already. The Dems are so far left now driving their party the DSA are to be honest quite evil. The USA will become another clusterf#ck again..worse than it is now. I think though the Presidential election in 2 years time will go back to republican because the populous over will realise they have made a huge mistake...by that time hopefully someone sensible like Rubio will stand for President...Vance is again too much of a religous zealot

 

[facthunter]

The Americans put him in and can also remove Him. He will be  a LAME Duck but He's there for the full term. Kyle, you think he has done a good Job do you? I certainly don't. He's told too many LIES to start with. I don't know how the World can deal with such a LIAR who ignores Democracy and admires  Dictators, but that's a widespread Phenomenon in the USA,  where Making money so frequently over rides ethics. Australia is not the USA, and Dog forbid it ever becomes such a Place. Nev

Rubio will have to do a lot of work to make people forget his dismal performance to date and nobody likes Vance because he's a shape-shifting zealot.
