Who cares? You nor I nor anyone much else will ever do anything about it. No point in worrying at all. May as well worry about the sun imploding.

 

 

We could all pray for world peace. That might work? tongue-out

 

 

 

 

Oh yeah - I forgot about that....!!

 

After me...All Hail The Spaghetti Monster (May You Be Touched By His Noodly Appendage)....

Imploding???? OMG! I thought the only solar threat was explosion.

 

Where can I buy three extra sets of long-johns at this time of year?

He does have a BSC(Economics). I don't think he is insane, marketing is second nature to him and he knows what his supporters want to hear and he uses that very well.

 

 

 

 

Having a BSC doesn't make you any smarter than anyone else, or sane.

 

It just means you had the time, opportunity, and money to go to uni.

I don't care if you agree or not.

 

You make no sense at all.

 

I know many stupid people with BScs. Most scraped through and some even took 8-9 years, but it's still a BSc.

 

Hell, even I got offered a full scholarship to UNE in the 90's but my need to actually have a job meant I couldn't.

 

I also know a hell of a lot of really smart people that have nothing more than a trade. Some with not even that. Many run successful businesses. 

 

 

 

And then there's people like Lindsay Fox

Having analyzed this, the TL;DR goes like this: seems you are kindof saying to him that he doesn't have a degree so he is definitely an inferior class of society.

 

As for Blakamin, Mike tends to type what he thinks and what he thinks depends on how much back pain he has. Apparently.

More nukes eh? Great, I feel safer already.

 

 

 

 

Nukes are like dogs. One incurs expense and time. Two or three do not incur two or three multiples thereof.

 

 

 

Personally I feel no more safe with n+x% where n is how many we have today than I do with n.

 

I do feel safer where n is more than zero on our side though, especially nowadays.

 

 

What? Nukes are nothing like dogs.

 

Our safety isn't determined by how many nukes 'we' have. It is determined by how many nukes 'they' have, and they have enough to turn us into glass.

 

This nuke escalation talk is insane. Anyone who advocates nuclear escalation is insane.

 

A nuclear war can't be won.

 

 

 

 

Who cares? You nor I nor anyone much else will ever do anything about it. No point in worrying at all. May as well worry about the sun imploding.

 

 

I do care!

 

There is still time.

I have to say that is a unacceptable as well.

 

Just because you are 70 years old, doesn't mean you will necessarily develop dementia.

 

Btw, i am nowhere near 70 :) so no conflict of interest yet!

 

So, what signs of dementia is he now exhibiting?

 

Personally, I thought he was always crazy.

joker97: I thought we decided from the start of the year he is narcissist.

 

Absolutely. He is narcissistic, but way too much stuff has been pre-emped. The media is so opinionated, and they are not reporting the facts anymore.

 

Look at facts, Trump will flip-flop on a lot of stuff he promised basically because its not possible to achieve it all. As for the whole nuclear weapons debate, the problem has already been there, and Russia are talking about strengthening their arsenal because there are a LOT of problems in Russia at the moment, and Putin is worried about losing his power.

 

Do some research from somewhere that is not going Trump is going to start WW3 because he is a narcissist and wants to grab women by the p***y.

 

https://geopoliticalfutures.com/forecasting-russia-in-2017/ 

 

AS for Trump like any president I don't think he would use them unless he had no other options. He is just saying they need to modernize their arsenal, do I like it, not particularly. And yes it is somewhat concerning, however I believe he doesn't want a nuclear war of any sort.

 

He is going to shake up China though, and I wouldn't be surprised if we are in for a volatile economy for at least the next 4-6 years, so I would start winding back any risky investments.

The way I see this: US installed many dictators in foreign land. Now Russia installed Trump. What goes round comes around.

They don't need to... He just puts his random thoughts on twitter, which will probably cause an international incident if it's not stopped before he gets power.

 

His picks for cabinet show that he's completely dangerous. 

 

He might not start ww3, but he might cause a lot of riots and maybe even a revolution, depending on how badly he treats "minorities".

 

 

 

When he asked African-Americans "what have you got to lose", a lot replied with "everything".
