Thank You Banjo for your reassuring words.
I hope that you're right regarding Trump.

We experienced American politics in over the decade
that we worked and lived there. It was quite an education
for us having been brought up in a sheltered environment
in Oz. We returned home for the sake of our children.
It's a decision we don't regret.

Armchair Critic,

Joe Biden at least listens to his advisers and respects
the rule of law, keeping promises and signed agreements,
supporting allies, and American institutions, and places
his country ahead of himself. I'd rather see a leader such
as him with his hand on the nuclear button than someone
who's simply nuts.

I also think that Biden once elected will probably resign
early and pass the mantle on to his Deputy knowing the country
is in good hands. I think the only reason Biden is currently
running is to keep a lunatic out of the White House - which
shows that he's not senile.

"Joe Biden at least listens to his advisers and respects the rule of law"
- Yeah righto, if that's what you think...
(Millions would disagree but who am I try try and convince you otherwise)

Neither the Republicans or the Democrats are going to fix America.
They don't care about the border, the homeless, the drug-addicted, the veterans or anything.
Ukraine and Israels borders yes, but not Americas or any of Americas problems,
They would walk past these people in their communities and pretend they don't exist.

Here you go Foxy, unrelated but it should be of interest to you.
Watch a minute or two.

Putin Under Fire After Alexei Navalny's Death

- Cui Bono.
Putin had nothing to gain by getting rid of him prior to the presidential election.
The west however has everything to gain by getting rid of one of their own in order to try to cause civil unrest in Russian prior to the election.
This will go on for months no doubt.

America has shown it will do anything to try and hurt Russia, including killing half a million Ukrainians.

The fact they are suggesting prosecuting Carlson shows what the West has become.
Usually those who limit freedom of the press are called 'regimes'

That is the west now.
