Well, that's one more bible verse than what Trump actually knows.

Kind of ironic, poor American evertonians have finally got the light at the end of the tunnel in the form of Moshiri leaving their club, only to find Trump becoming their president...

Why are you assuming American evertonians arent happy with Trump?

Harris secured less women votes than Biden. Incredible given the nature of her campaign.

It underlines how completely ineffectual she was.

A terrible candidate who was given a coronation by the Dem Party elite when they had no need or right to.

Basic mistake here LL. You’re trying to judge him on his words and actions.

You can see it in the stock market too - they think he'll do all the things they want like lower taxes for the rich, gut regulations but won't do the tariffs.


Or this - Trump talked non stop about huge tariffs yet lots don't even seem to have heard about them.


And on healthcare

How a Trump-era policy that separated thousands of migrant families came to pass

The Trump administration's "zero tolerance" immigration policy separated over 5,000 children from their parents, with no tracking process or records that would allow them to be reunited. Atlantic staff writer Caitlin Dickerson joins Geoff Bennett to discuss her investigation into the policy.

This one is troubling me a lot.

ICE is evil. The horror stories from the last Trump term pertaining to this are still fresh in my mind.

It boils to the fact that she was nothing but DEI hire By Biden camp. She had no merits, nothing.
It was easy for people to see through that.

Ok. Essential adjustment

Using 'mate' is just a filler rather than typing in 'ok, wetdog69blueforever' or whatnot at the beginning of a post.

My uncle used to call people he didn't know the name of John - bus drivers, barmen etc.

Weird you seem to think it's me actually trying to say someone's a friend, not from Liverpool i guess Walken?

Congratulations to president Trump on his historic victory against the fannies

Whilst I'm sure there will be some big regressive headlines coming and people's lives being truly affected by Trump's victory, what's immediately disheartening is the sheer volume of small unkindnesses that people whose hate has been validated want to randomly visit on others in the wake of this.

Wednesday morning I was trying to avoid political news after seeing which way things were heading, so decided to stick with some hobby sites, totally apolitical stuff. First comment on the first article: "Cope harder sugartits! Suck it Puerto Rico!". It's like Government by 4chan.

A breakdown of empathy plus a willingness from the masses to avoid being targets themselves doesn't lead to anything positive. We've seen this before, but never turbocharged by the internet. Unfortunately for a lot of people, "the internet" is basically just their socials, and as such have been captured nearly entirely.
