He like you, can think what you like 4E/ Remember you're on an Australian forum arguing with me, an Australian.
And, of course, you are on the American sub-section of said forum arguing with an American.

Never denied that. I am merely pointing out that it resides on an Australian website and that I am an Australian. He is a Yank and very much in the minority here. Unlike him, I'm willing to admit that I am in the wrong. All he has done is prove that the views generated by many Americans generate the stereotypes about Americans... :roll

I'm pretty sure that 4E knows where he is and I am equally sure he knows what he is talking about and be careful, Brian, you just put your hypocrisy and bigotry on show yet again.

You never admit when you are wrong you just launch into a frenzy of tsk tsks, yawns and kiddies playground retorts.

You have yet to prove I am wrong, Black Orchid. Keep trying though, it's a laugh a minute how much you show how far you are out in right field there with all your Tory mates. Tsk, tsk. :roll

Lyin Brian, would you actually support Biden over Trump? The man is a complete loon.

Oh, dearie, dearie, me. Poor, poor, "Nicole". I would support anybody who appeared more honourable than el Presidente' Trump who is IMO full of bullshit. I am unsure why you support such a creature as Trump, "Nicole". The man lies, cheats, is deluded and a complete WOFTM. :roll :roll

I'm sure Trump loses a lot of sleep worrying about your opinion of him.

Right ... but I'm arguing with an Australian about an American issue.

I acknowledge I don't have a vote in this matter but I wonder why anybody would support a creature like Trump.
I just gave you a reason: The economy is soaring. That's known as a good thing, especially when other nations' economies, including China's, are losing steam.

He is a "know nothing" in the classic sense of the words in American politics.
Now you're parroting the cliches of the left, who disparage him because they want their power back.

The D.C. ruling class also hates Trump because he has the audacity to put American interests ahead of their globalist lust for cheap labor, cheap goods made overseas, etc. In short, Trump is what the Mafia would call "bad for business" -- but in this case, he's good for Americans in the Heartland whose small communities went bust when the factories closed and the corporations that owned their plants decided to relocate in Mexico, India, Vietnam or some other place where you can pay child laborers 50 cents an hour to make athletic shoes.

I'd think that kind of stance would appeal to someone with your purported concern for the underdog, but you're too busy trying to guarantee yourself a place at the cool kids' lunch table to recognize that today's left is more concerned about their own power than the downtrodden worker.

His isolationism will lead the American nation and ultimately the world to the same place that previous isolationism has lead it. :roll
Wow ... what an ironic statement.

We all know that if Trump had ordered American troops to sink Iranian ships, etc., you'd be the first to complain about what an interventionist he was, and how America should stop meddling in other countries' affairs.

Instead, we have a president who thinks foreign wars and nation building should be avoided in favor of putting more of our nation's resources into making life better for the forgotten men and women of America. But instead of appreciating that change of policy, you complain that he's too much of an isolationist!

Gosh, if I didn't know better, I'd say that nothing Trump could do would ever please you, because in your world, it's not cool to give Trump his due.

I'm perfectly willing to admit I'm in the wrong when I actually am in the wrong. But so far, you haven't provided any convincing proof of that assertion.

Keep trying, though ... anything can happen!

To be accepted as an "Australian", you need to primarily to put the interests of your people before all others, Briney. Since you never, ever do that, (quite the opposite in fact),how can you consider yourself "Australian?" You are a card carrying socialist internationalist, Brian. Saying that you are "Australian" could get you into trouble with your comrades, as they would consider your claim to be dangerously close to Nationalism. And Nationalism and Patriotism are dirty words to Internationalists.
Take that, Brian. :rofl :rofl :rofl

Thanks for the tip, Neferti!

Sometimes I find it more fun to engage ... just to see what falls out of his head next.
