Back when things were sane

The Unholy Trinity: Trump, Putin and Netanyahu.

Re the OP, would that have been at the time of the Flintstones?

Sane? Why, then, would Fred be banging on the door shouting, ‘ COME ON WILMA, OPEN THIS DOOR’ when he was standing right next to an open window?

Starmer will be hoping he doesn’t win. Trump won’t forget the sending of Labour staff to promote the democrats.

I have both friends and relatives spread across the US.

None support Trump or his rhetoric.

His policies seem a little akin to Reform policies. Sound great on paper but totally uncosted.

His stance on immigrants is similar to Reform and his alleged support for Russia/Putin is simply frightening.

His speeches are alarming and his aggressive manner about anything with which he disagrees is shocking.

I truly hope he doesn’t win!

I find I’ve warmed to King Charles.
And I hope Trump wins the US presidential election.

Good grief, why??

I think you’re right nanna8

Traditional Republicans perhaps? You’d have to look at the history of the USA- the same with their love of guns. Seen as the American way of life with a certain ( rather large) demographic. Very different mindset from us and I would think you,too. Not all, of course, but a sizeable group. Europeans are different. Some Australians seem to be a bit this way, too.

The Trump supporters I have come across tend to be very conservative, Bible believing Christians. He courts them, he knows that is where his vocal support is - in the pulpits down South. I would guess many churches would support him from the pulpit.

Why? I just don't get it.

What do people like about Trump? Please anybody?

It's probably very superficial but I like the Obamas. I like their humour, their humanity, their intelligence, their love for their family.

As I say, no great incites into politics. Maybe I'm wrong.

The Queen, it was sad to see her battling on.It reminded me of my mother.

incites ?
Strikes me Trump did far too much inciting in January 2021

Dreadful spelling, apologies and appreciate the help.

Michelle is a big wumman, isn’t she?

I, too, cannot understand how anyone can take Trump seriously, but many Americans seem to do just that. I was a bit worried yesterday when I found myself agreeing with him that people came in two genders, and he would not allow men to compete in women’s sport!

This is why people need to look past the person and concentrate on his policies. He is right about so many things. Too often choice is based on personality. It should be about politics.

Cynical for sure, all they had to do was stay neutral, it was not to be, now it’s going to be a long haul to end, I was surprised by the attendance at the BRICS meeting, Russia is far from isolated.

And let's not forget this man

It was good while it lasted with neutral independant countries as a buffer with the new Russia but the EU and NATO decided that all of them should be recruited, Ukraine was the last straw.

That's a rather cynical view of these countries.

They should have the right to choose, not be battered into being part of a new USSR, starting with Ukraine.

I simply cannot comprehend why anyone would want to vote for Trump. Surely not? He is just awful, in my opinion.
Other opinions are available...

My perception is that the buffer states saw the rising threat from Putin sooner than the complacent West and sought to join NATO of their own volition, for protection.

Anyone who wants Trump to win must be in need of therapy 🤣🤣

Perhaps they could take Trump along with them! 😂😂

Back when things were sane? When was that then?
