Oh right yes.

Vance's wife.

Is this the political equivalent of "I can't be racist, I have black friends"?

Vance's wife.

Wonder what she thinks of him supporting someone who tweeted "Normalize Indian hate"?
Maybe she sees herself as one of "those" Indians.

But Trump thinks diplomacy is the root of all evil. It’s a business deal, don’t you know? Except in the world of people born rich and who have never actually earned their money honestly, “business deal,” doesn’t mean a mutually beneficial arrangement, it means the man with the biggest thumbscrews and least principles wins the prize.

So Trump and Vance are supposed to sit there and take what Zelensky said to them without commenting back? Zelensky is a President also, goading another president in his own house - what's with that? Yep, Zelensky acted like an emotional airhead, not a dignatory, and he was scolded. He's been acting like he can just click his fingers and America must cough more and more money without a solid contract as HE holds all the cards! Go figure. What fool lends money without a contract in place? Oh yes, Biden.

We should a revert to regional idioms and slang to deal with the onslaught of translation AI. I do not think it understands a lot of what is being said, which is why it yanks the conversation back to certain points all the time.

You aren't English if you don't understand the word. I am not a journalist, this is not a publication I am getting paid for, it is not an assignment so...... if I type fast and make a mistake I really don't give a toss. If and when I feel the need to correct fast typing spelling.mistakes I will do so BUT I don't view social media as having to write an professor corrected essay. Only the pompous people worry about that on social media platforms.... and those who really have nothing to say about the subject in hand. It's called deflection, another tactic when someone doesn't have anything to say.

Superhansrantowindsor · 02/03/2025 12:34

It’s like 1984. We all saw what happened at the meeting and someone is trying to tell us that’s not what we saw

I am heartened to see that at least the majority on the thread actually have an understanding of history and diplomacy.

bombastix · 02/03/2025 12:34

Nah, you aren't English if you don't know why that is wrong

Largely because we aren't educated in Russia or America. Imagine what that must be like

FFS I think we may need to get the edit feature suspended.

Anything to say about Ukraine and America. Zelensky and Trump.?Nothing to add apart from dwelling on spelling mistakes? Honestly, how embarrassing?

SunshinDay · 02/03/2025 12:40

@Odin2018 I think zelensky is just under so much constant pressure it's harder to step back and think, his usual mode is go in say putin may come for them next we are holding your line (all true) help us to help you but unfortunately that didn't work in the oval.
Somewhere I did read his team and the USA team had briefed him and spent ten days briefing him but he went off piste.

The people behind trump have a very tough job don't fjrg6. They

MrsPernicious · 02/03/2025 12:41

The edit function is not there to be abused.

Edit history is available to all. However, it is a total faff to have to keep checking unscrupulous users twists and turns.

JD Vance and Trump are fucking idiots

Don't worry, if Russia tries to invade Alaska, America will defend no problem. If you were a betting man, how much would you bet that's ever going to happen? My money would be on - it never will.

It doesn't need to invade, it has a proxy in the Whitehouse. Alaska, like the rest of America, is now a vassal state of Russia.

bombastix · 02/03/2025 12:44

@Odin2018 made plenty already. You are just the latest iteration so it's really not necessary to respond to your Russian Chorus.

Yep, I hear you. Don't get me wrong. I feel for the Ukranians but if the Americans want to negotiate peace and Zelensky doesn't then Zelensky can choose whatever he wants to do and if America wants to step back and not put in anymore money to fund the war then that's up to them also as it's their money. You can't have it both ways. Peace or continued war. Choose.

Vance's wife.

Yeah even Vance can't defend his wife from the rascist 19 year old who works for Elon.

Washingupdone · 02/03/2025 12:47

It is said that there isn’t much room in the Oval Office therefore, regarding media coverage access was denied to Associated Press, Reuters, HuffPost and the German newspaper Der Tagesspiegel. However they found room for a Russia team to stream live.

Yes it is.

bombastix · 02/03/2025 12:47

No it's really good actually because it turns out that racism is like woah something that bigly happens to poor people.

Arrivals4lucky · 02/03/2025 12:47

Or, I can’t be homophobic, I have a gay cousin… that’s another classic…
