Trump’s Final Term Ends in: - Countdown Timer

8 out of 10 cat owners who expressed a preference, said their cats preferred it.

Attached is a Trump Truth, with statistics that show, as evidence for how amazingly popular he is, approval poll results for polls conducted on his MAGA GOP fan base that approve of him.

And he has dropped.

I suspect that 1% he has dropped is that Greenland fella with the red hat waiting for the hospital ship.

Another Truth attached. So now we know for sure what Nats was doing in that corridor sticking paper squares on the walls. So the poster who said that was spot on.

Two things I notice though. First, is that the best place for art, outside like that, with presumably direct sunlight, humidity changes, driving rain, bugs that eat things etc.

Second, those gold tadpole things that are all over the walls. Are they eggs ?

They could be you know. He might be laying them. That is the intergalactic lizard overlord army. He is laying them eggs and putting them all over. That explains the militirerized ballroom. That is his nest. And the reinforced military arch, that is to defend the nest. And the gold too. Everything is gold plated to deflect the 5G. Remember 5G ? That was his vax thing, his anti 5G vax. And when the eggs hatch, the larve eat the paintings. I have noticed that too. Any wall that has them eggs also has a food nearby. Paintings, or art. They feed on human creativity. That explains why he does not have any.

It is all making sense now.

Join the dots folk. It's all in plain sight.

I'm loving Rubio not understanding the concept of rural diesel theft !

Does Rubio have any understanding of anything?

We don't know the full story yet, but it would be ironic if it just highlights the price of diesel...

Red Diesel is commie innit.

I ain't convinced about the diesel though. I think maybe fish. Carp. There is a lots of carp waters around there. Worth more than diesel. I jest of course.

I see the new opinions are that even if not attack related, it was still organized by the Iranians as a sort of dummy run.. for the real event. Fuck me, we are beyond 5d chess now, now we are at parallel universe level chess.

A team of crack Iranian special forces, travel thousands of miles across Europe, cross the channel in a rubber boat, bluster their way through immigration, get set up in London, get vans, disguise themself as oil robbers with the intention of getting caught... and Rubio winks and says.... you don't know what I know.

( And we do not know beyond they are brits)

Fuck me. The US is totally top down now, and it is gripping the rest of the world. All have to cow tow. Grandpa Trump with his conspiracies... all must follow.

And then we have this knob.. of no fixed abode... clutching a fucking Bible.

These cockwombles have no fucking moral compass at all. They feed on hate.

We don't know the full story, but I can't help feeling that terrorists with vanfuls of explosives wouldn't have been given bail so easily.

And if they were just thieves, what idiots to target a farm near a major secure site with scadzillions of armed police roaming the area, eh?

Quote " And if they were just thieves, what idiots to target a farm near a major secure site with scadzillions of armed police roaming the area, eh?"

Aye. I blame US TV and films myself. Because I reckon if Rubio had been brought up with " Only fools and horses", he would at least have some understanding of what a plonker is.

I mean come on. He should know what a dipshit fucking plonker is.... he fucking works for one.

Sorry for all the swear words. I am near locked out of MN today, so trying to fit loads in. Seems MN have upped their cloudflare security level.

And this is what gets me. They have no policy, no plan, nothing to sell to the electorate and the world. So instead they point to a bunch of plonkers, and tell us... " These people hate you and hate your freedom. And they are all super smart criminal masterminds. So we must take your freedom away to protect you from them.

And the cockwombles buy it.

"Never underestimate the predictability of stupidity"

Criminals are axiomatically thick as pigshit. And anyone who expects otherwise is probably a tad dim themselves.

I would tend to change the wording to "criminals who get caught". The ones who don't get caught are by definition likely to be less thick because they manage to evade suspicion and/or capture, and to be a completely unknown quantity from our point of view because we don't know who they are.

Do we have a new thread waiting for us somewhere?

@SerendipityJane @AskingQuestionsAllTheTime I think you're both right. I have to deal with rural crimes occasionally for work. The number of numpties who flytip waste which includes their own household bills or packaging addressed to themselves defies belief. They are then baffled when caught. On two occasions a ringing mobile phone was found among flytipping. The first time, an attending Rozzer answered the phone and when he said "no, he's not here at the moment, who was it you were after again?" the caller fully identified the phone owner, oblivious to my colleagues' barely-stifled laughter in the background. The second, separate occasion, the phone was found to be unlocked and contained footage of the culprits filming themselves as they dumped the waste at that location and elsewhere. They came back to look for the phone among the dumped waste a day or so later and were immediately recognised and hauled away.

I'd be willing to be some of my meagre pension that the lads caught were, indeed, fuel/plant thieves chancing their puny arms in what they assumed was an ill-attended remote location. Possibly also well-known to local Bobbies - hence why they were bailed. And now BLOATUS 'n' pals are jumping all over it as foiling a major terrorist attack against US patriots on disloyal UK land.

Yes. Agree.

Trump is an example :-)

Rapid edit... he is a dumb one who is not caught.. cos money.

Even criminals who "don't get caught" aren't that bright.

The bottom line is once you choose to be a criminal, you have chosen to basically make it into you v. "the world". Generally odds that aren't inspiring.

The old trope of needing to be lucky every day, whilst your nemesis only needs to be lucky once applies.

Really this is what separates real criminals from dilettantes. Real criminals have done that calculation and decided it's worth it. Which is what makes them so very dangerous. Think "The Godfather" ....

Criminals who "succeed" need to be wealthy and associate themselves with other wealthy criminals who succeed.

If ever they are caught, they cry ugly. Some, however, don't even break out into a sweat.

I'm keeping up... honest!

Yup. Some decide that clutching a Bible as they go into court might work.

Indeed.
