    And the Democrats still want to nominate him? There must be a reason they are happy to keep this guy in power, but I’m not sure what it is. What is he going to be like in four years time?

    He has a proven track record of beating Trump.

    Is it possible for you to take in a differing political opinion without getting so triggered by it? TOC has said nothing wrong in that post. He's welcome to an opinion on an election in another country – that's called "foreign affairs". I think it's you that needs to chill out, and if reading things you disagree with upsets you so much then don't open the concerned topic, mark it as read, then move on.

    You are defending TOC. That's really all that needs to be said.

     

    When he has an informed, rational opinion I'll give him one in turn.

    I think today is the day Trump secured his victory and it probably won’t even be close.

     

    Even with Trump himself clearly losing his mind as welll.

    Keep your uninformed opinions to UK politics please.

    Surely even the most ardent Trump hater must admit Biden doesn’t have the cognitive/mental powers to be president even now let alone for another 4 years, saying Biden mentally unfit to be president doesn’t make someone a Trump cheerleader

    I disagree.

    Why are helicopters still so well used.. So many notable deaths caused by crashes.  I suspect eventually they will be banned except for emergency and military use. 

    This might be one of the first logical things you have said.

     

    Here's another first: I agree with you!

    Update coming this weekend! Thanks for the patience :D

    Make that in two weekends...

     

    First, thank you for the patience everyone! There have been four deaths since this pool started.

    1. @Spade_Cooley got us started with Johnny Ruffo on November 10th

    2. @time is next up with Brigit Forsyth on December 1st.

    3. @diego scored with Glynis Johns on January 4th.

     

    The other death, Richard McKenzie, also died on December 1st and is one of @justonecornetto subs. Maybe a rule in a future version will include two subs = 1 of the 3 deaths needed to win? Unsure...

     

    Side-notes: I apologize for the format of the entry list and some of the other sections. I will work on it and hopefully roll out a better looking/working version by next round. I also need to retire the "List of the Missed", it is just too much work to track all these shows. Might try a different version of it in the future...

    The Democrats are going to win anyway in a Biden/Trump match-up.

     

    The simple truth is that the left will still to the Democrats in fear of Trump; the right will stick to Trump in fear of Biden; and the people in the middle…they will most likely go with Biden simply because he is the less offensive option.

     

    I agree with the sentiment of most Americans that neither should be their respective party’s candidate in 2024. When Biden won in 2020 I thought he was a good one-term candidate. I thought he was a pretty neutral candidate (I didn’t/don’t consider him to be too far to the left) who could provide an opportunity for a reset. 
     

    It will be interesting to see how Biden campaigns this time round as in 2020 Covid restrictions probably reduced the strain of a full on campaign. 
     

    Obviously there has been no reset and we appear to be back to square one. The only good thing for Americans is that surely neither will run in 2028? 

    Surely both won't be alive....right? If nothing else, I'd be shocked if both are still functioning enough to campaign at that point.

     

    Eventually the wheel is going to fall off for one of them.

    I've yet to see anyone articulate what Haley stands for. She's undoubtedly Not Trump, but is there anything beyond that? The people of South Carolina presumably know more than most, so how she does there will say a lot. If she makes it, of course. Personally the idea the nominee will be anyone other than Trump is fantasy. 

    Nikki Haley's geopolitical beliefs are quite different. She wants to fund Ukraine, stay in the UN/NATO, and alter the perceptions the world has about us (aka no America First)

    Everything bad they said would happen with Trump has basically come true under BIDEN. Wars, crashing economies, chaos, insanity, etc. 

     

    No huge Trump fan but I liked it better under "meanie" Tweets.

     

    Bwaah! He's a meanie on the internet! He says bad things...  Let's RIOT! Bwaaah!!...

    It's the same way in America. They're supposed to pay time and a half if you work on Sunday, so I suspect that's why some stores remain closed. Also, each state has weird alcohol laws. I could not buy wine on Sunday in Pennsylvania, but I could buy beer, so I wound up buying lambic to have with brunch.

    In the UK they do? Or America?

     

    As someone who lives in America and works on Sundays. I've never heard of that.

    Wow! Impressive.

     

    If it wasn't for this site, I would have had no knowledge of the three hits so far. People that have never crossed into my world.

     

    RIP all the same, working hard to feel less indifferent about this quick start.
