Sharpie Posted April 16, 2020 Share Posted April 16, 2020 1 hour ago, JFK-1 said: On an earlier post today written before I had seen this I commented in a similar vein that he if defeated might not go. It takes no brilliance to me this deduction I have seen him on TV in the past make that statement that he would not leave office because of a result he adjudged not proper. Has no one else seen in this man all , not some, all the classic moves of a potential dictator. Openly states that he has ambitions to be President for life, he has stated that particularly at the occasion of the appointment of Xi. Appoints guys like a previously respected Bill Barr who agrees with everything he does, and defines the law to suit, What did the last centuries worst tyrants have in their roles as dictators ,,followers who carried out the masters rules regardless of human rights, laws, just said yes sir and did it. Media control and an avid spokesman who only preached the masters agenda, there is one on TV now, never contradicts ,questions or otherwise deviates from the masters voice. A policy of returning all US military from distant deployments, highly available military resources if any form of civil unrest as a result of unpopular policies or decisions. Sure I agree I'm an old fart having a trip of fantasy, but if you kiss ass of potential enemies and aggressors such as North Korea ,China,Russia you can afford to have your well funded and supplied military right at home, to hell with NATO, and any other dependent allies we don't need you but you sure need us so behave.

Watch the election results in November, if Trump does not win will he accept defeat and just move over, or could it possibly happen that individuals such as those oppose a change of leadership. He has a stacked Supreme Court, he has a stacked Senate, he is stacking as far as he can all the positions of leadership Secretaries etc with people who agree with him. Who or what is there really to stop him from becoming a takeover President for life. The military they will be fully occupied being prepared to face an angry Chinese who even now he is criticising and blaming for things like the Virus. He is directly being accusatory of the Chinese in his withdrawal of funds from WHO. He is not wrong in the Virus case, China have been at the least dilatory, but there is a time and place, and even an opponent that you have to consider is this the best time, place and person to prove how tough you are.

Sharpie Posted April 17, 2020 Share Posted April 17, 2020 The sad thing about the view of the Americans is that so many of us identify the rabble rousers, as the Americans when in fact there are so many excellent Americans but they just don't get the coverage that the other ones do. It is more so now when the President even if he doesn't encourage those automatic weapons wielding thugs is equally ambivalent about criticising them. Of course he does love that they will vote for him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
milky_26 Posted April 17, 2020 Share Posted April 17, 2020 i see they are going to run the antibody test on sailors on an aircraft carrier. coincidentally today WHO say (from BBC) The World Health Organization has just cautioned against placing too much stock in antibody tests - they're the tests to see if someone has already had the virus. The first problem with antibody tests is there aren’t any that work, but even if they did there are potential issues. There are no guarantees that if you have antibodies against the coronavirus that you are completely immune. And even if your antibodies do protect you from becoming sick, then you may be able to harbour the virus in your body and pass it to others. There will be many challenges before immunity passports, allowing you to resume life as normal if you pass an antibody test, will be practical. This is the problem with a virus that has only been around for a couple of months – there is still too much we do not understand. However, the main appeal of antibody testing is to find out how many people have really been infected with the virus. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm so glad there's an ocean between them and us From what I can tell, most of the anger is directed at their fellow citizens. The country is deeply divided along ideological lines. To a large extent, Americans don't care about what's going on outside their country, but are ready to go to war with each other over things like school prayer, abortion rights, gay rights, and gun controls, issues that were settled decades ago in most western countries. I'm probably biased (a pinko socialist Canadian), but most of the anger seems to be among the conservative right. They believe that their 'freedoms' are under attack.
