Thanks for watching it chocolatelovinggran.

This site (like many) reports from mainly right wing sources. There are many court cases against Trump and people standing up for legal government, which are simply not reported here.

Trump like Johnson here, speaks to people's pain. Neither cared nor intend to make it any better, but those people felt heard. Making it better is hard and a proportion will always think the instant solution is possible.

Enjoy your chocolate eggs!

Interesting. Well done Gavin Newsom.

Yes, it's an interesting alternative view to the prevailing noise coming from the USA, isn't it? No surprise that the challenge comes from Californians. I have travelled a little in the US and have been intrigued by the differences from state to state, in legislation, education, and mindset.
It is difficult for me, coming from such a tiny country, to see how a leader might manage so much diversity of culture, expectations and needs.
I wonder if Mr Trump has looked to other large nations - China, Russia, and decided that dictatorships are the only way to go.
Good luck to Mr Newsom : I fear that he may need it.

I know some dont like watching but I think it is worth watching at least some of this to get a perspective on what is happening in the States of America.
