US Politics Thread

Seems like the main politics thread is becoming a Yankee-Doodle Trump-fest, so maybe scope here to split them out.

Will see if this one gains any traction ..if it does will move over a few of the million posts from our two protagonists from the other thread.

Yee-haaa!

Just wait until Squirrel Nutsin gets on WHO today when he's finished his paper round. I'm excited to hear his excuse for the appalling jobs figures.

Then you get to the hospitals that have been hit.
The USA might not have targetted this but they are using AI to identify targets.
LLMs are not intelligent as they are still what is the next word machine with no understanding of context.
If the algorithm matches the target to the training data then BOOM. 
Having said that hospitals and schools are right out of the IDF playbook.

Why don't you post something about the 30k innocent protesters slaughtered last month by the Islamic government of Iran?
You clearly hate the US/UK and support scum 
By that rationale you support bombing schools then.

which is a real contradiction given your track record with kids.
We both know US didn't deliberately target a school,but we also both know the Iranian government has deliberately raped and killed women and kids who protest against them
Strange you don't condemn them or the peados of the Vatican but US clearly accidently bombs a school and you cant stop going on about it
Sicko 
School gets bombed and you’re desperate to make excuses and throw in some whataboutism.


When are you going to condemn the British empire? It’s about as relevant to this discussion you spastic.

it's costing him something like $1bn a day to continue this.
that's without factoring in the impact on energy prices and more importantly - borrowing costs.
10yr treasury has now gone north of 4.1%.

it also appears to have caused some serious fractions within his support.

It is interesting to see Trump now firmly in the pocket of Bibi.

This venture into Iran is where Trump has jumped the shark and it’s good to see the rest of nato staying firm in readiness but not getting dragged into this illegal enterprise.

Which they are now trying to do.
Then there are other separatist minorities such as the Balochs and Turkmen in Iran.
Provoking civil war is not a wise move.

lowest in 5 years.

farm bankruptcies grew by 46% year on year.

Geezer's proper thick. That's all he's proving.
Not for me, I’d rather the U.K. didn’t get involved at all.

Trump has been very clear on how he views the ‘special relationship’ and it’s completely one sided.
I've heard that before, I think it was Hugh Grant playing the Prime Minister. 
 
 
Harold Wilson before that with Vietnam.
