Charity starts at home. The UK needs to learn this too. How much of that aid falls into the wrong hands? Lots, I reckon. Believe me though, not everybody hates the US. Far from it!! I know numerous Russians who long to come to live in the US. In the UK we keep hearing about how giving foreign...

The fact that he's corrupt at all means he is questionable, but, hey, maybe to be a politician one has to be corrupt. I watched both town halls. I fell asleep watching Biden's lol. Maybe I'm getting old or he's just boring to listen to lol. Actually, it was just late and time to sleep. I just...

Nah, Biden is dirty. That's not hard to accept. Honestly, I see Biden as being as bad as Trump but in different ways.

I'm not so sure European countries are laughing at the US. If they are, they shouldn't be. The UK's response has been shoddy, so has Russia's and the the list goes on. And when it comes to it, those in Europe will want their hands on the American vaccines as soon as possible, so they really...

Who needs enemies when we have our own free media:LOL: Biden's hands are as dirty as hell... just like Trump's!

He is... along with Biden/Harris. That's the scary thing. Biden looks frail and is definitely losing it (and we may well have a dead president on our hands), Harris I simply don't like and she would be played on the world stage and Trump... well we all know about Trump! God bless Uncle Sam:ROFL:

The country already is divided, has been for a long time, but Trump just hastened the process. It's not going to be fixed under Biden or Harris. It's too late for that. Yeah, I don't think she's a communist lol I know plenty of real communists... I just find the current state of affairs...

And this is exactly why Harris will be running things if Biden gets in. Although he's not Mr Charisma, he has more than Harris, but it will be Harris who will be pulling the strings. I just instantly didn't like Harris, regardless of her policies. Maybe I could warm to her, but I don't see it...

Trump's rallies are so much more impressive than Biden's sleep ins. I watched the one from yesterday, and Trump has a knack for playing to the crowd. Biden doesn't. If Biden gets in, I think Harris is going to be taking over, which is a scary thought... just as scary as Trump!

In the US the Republicans (conservatives) are nowadays considered red and the Democrats (socialists) are considered blue. In the UK, it's the complete opposite: the Conservatives are blue and Labour (socialists) are red. I've always identified socialists with red: USSR, China and so on. "The...

One major reason they don't want to insult Islam is because the US sells a lot of arms to the likes of Saudi Arabia, Turkey and Egypt. Very big business. And then there's the oil. At the same time, though, the US will almost certainly have had a hand in the Arab Spring to get more leverage in...

Yeah, people get called out as being racist or xenophobic if they criticise Isam in particular. Just not PC to do it.

The Clovis and the Pre-Clovis peoples and then the Vikings. But it all depends on how one decides to define "discovered America". Columbus is the one most people are taught about.

I've been watching a few more left leaning videos. Gov Whitmer comes across really well. She's the one who they tried to kidnap. Much more likeable than Harris for sure. I don't know much about her policies, but the Dems should be molding people like her for the future. Watched The View. Got...

Ireland. Greece and Italy are religious, but not really considered Western Europe. There are plenty of Christians in Western Europe, but the figures seem to be dwindling year by year.

I was wondering about this the other day. I realise the federal response could have been better, but I don't see many states blaming themselves for their lack of response. It's all Trump's fault, which is politically convenient. He has been pretty damn dismissive of the virus in some/many ways...

There are still many conservative people in the UK, particularly in England. I can't speak for other countries in Europe though. I've have personally never met anyone who is anti-Christian here, but, yes, there are plenty of non-religious people. Plenty of champagne socialists, too. It depends...

Maybe so, but I'm specifically talking about the UK and in particular England. Believe me, Europe is not a homogeneous entity. There is a marked difference between nations. In fact, I never say I am from Europe. For me, Europe is 'that place over the water', but I know full well that the UK is a...

Yeah, I realise that not everybody is as you say. We are, nowadays, made to feel ashamed to fly the English flag and to a lesser degree the British flag. Both may offend the Scottish and to a lesser extent the Welsh and Northern Irish lol It may be though that you are more simply aware of...

Going off thread, but it's quite funny talking about mentality, as when I say I'm English here (I live in Russia for those who don't know) they ask me, "Yeah, but where exactly are you from?", i.e. meaning am I from England or am I from the US. Many people here do not differentiate between the...

Yeah, there is a lot of knife crime, but as you say the homicide rate is lower... as in... way lower in the UK... 1.2 per 100,000 for the UK and 4.96 for the US. Obviously there are other reasons than just guns at play. Where I am (Russia) the rate is 8.21 per 100,000, but there are way fewer...

It certainly would be a massive task to get rid of all guns, but got to start somewhere. It's changing the mentality that's the main thing, but it could take generations to achieve. But what's the alternative? Some countries have quite a lot of guns, like Switzerland, but don't have the...

No, it's not nonsense. The homicide rate due to guns will significantly drop. You are right though, if someone really wants a gun they can get one, but in the UK guns are few and far between. We have a very low homicide rate, but that may be due to other things as well as the scarcity of guns...

I know the reason for guns, I was being slightly facetious. But really, if people wonder why the US has so many murders and police killings it is staring at them in the face. Get rid of the guns, and the number of killings will fall dramatically. The US is still a very young country and is...

Those guns LOL. What is it about the US and guns? Nothing with being able to use guns down the gun club, but when every man, woman and child is armed to the teeth you are asking for trouble. And their cherished constitution? The divisions have always been there, but they have just come to the...

The whole thing has become tit for tat. But hasn't politics always been like that? Where the hell are the people who are supposed to be looking out for all of us? Do they truly exist? Trump has to go!! I just don't like the alternative either.

Don't rile him up, he's preparing for war. He will be the first on the frontline fighting for his beliefs;):D

I've never really noticed that about her. It must be tough job doing what she does, she must be pretty thick skinned. I just find Harris distasteful somehow. I hope Biden doesn't drop dead before the end of his term if he gets in.

Yeah, I think Pence would be better, but hardly ideal.

The extreme left is just as bad. It's laughable listening to those on the left who say it isn't. I live in a country that followed Marxist Leninist thought, and I've seen what it's done to the people and the country. No thanks. I have said numerous times that the US should just get on and split...

I try my best:censored:

People call Trump out all the time for his behaviour. Don't bring sexism into this, that's absolute nonsense.

He wasn't extremely rude. Not in my book at least. No sexism at all. Again, in my opinion. I just find her snarly. And looking at the fact checking from the BBC, a notoriously left leaning organisation, she got her facts wrong just as much, or even more so, as Pence.

Believe me, your own country is spying on you. When I say you, I mean it in the wider sense.

I find Kamala Harris such a dislikeable person. Hope to hell she doesn't end up becoming President. I know elections should be about policies and not personalities, but I presume we all know that that's nonsense. I just find her to be so condescending. I feel Pence came across better in that...

And do you think your own country isn't spying on you?

Kamala Harris the woman of truth and integrity, who last night in the debate said fracking wouldn't be banned (by Joe Biden; she had to get that in lol), but boy does she (they?) want to ban it:

Nowhere is a utopia, and people who are looking for one are severely deluded in my opinion. On a like for like basis, the US is one of the most free countries in the world.

As I said... what we are seeing is the decline of Western civilization. Not just the US. People have been spied on for a very long time, but it's been made easy since the internet etc appeared. People love putting their lives out there for others to see. Like we are right now on Tinnitus Talk...

In the US a person is pretty much free to bare arms, to marry whomever regardless of sexual orientation, is allowed to riot and protest about everything and anything, is allowed to criticize and make fun of the president to their heart's content without risk of reprisal, is allowed to sue...

Good luck with that:)

Kayleigh McEnany has tested positive.

I feel it infeasible to expect people to agree on what a fair and free democracy is. And through trying, the inevitable may happen... the total collapse of society where anarchy ensues. Hope I'm wrong, but things are going that way, at least in the West.

Russia and China will still be standing. What we are seeing, as I've said before, is the decline of Western civilization. Russia and China will use our own freedom against us, and one way is through social media.

Just split the country up already. You people hate each other. You are never going to see eye for eye, so what's the point.

Why does having the coronavirus stop them from voting? Do they actually physically have to go somewhere to vote? True, but it's still high, at least in the "proud" to be an American section, although not in the "very proud" one. At least going by the reports I've seen. I always see the US as...

What I want to know is how can all these ex members of the President's team (Trump's and presidents' from the past) get away with writing tell it all books about what goes on in the White House? The same goes for recording supposedly private conversations. There seems to be no or little concern...

Wow, that's freaky that the dead President's name would appear on the ballot for the upcoming election. And do you know what, that might up the chances of the Republicans staying in power, ie there would almost certainly be a wave of patriotic feelings after the death of the President and his...

Wouldn't the election just go ahead as planned (maybe with a delay)... but... wouldn't the Republicans have to choose a candidate to put forward, ie Pence was never put forward as the Republicans' candidate for president for this upcoming election, even if he does take over from Trump for the...

Don't they have to elect someone though? Surely others would rise up and take a shot at the nomination? But, yeah, Pence would be the obvious choice.

I wonder who the new candidate would be for the Republicans? Obviously Pence would be in the running.

And what if Trump can't stand for the election and instead the Republicans have to elect someone else? What happens to all the votes that have already been cast via postal voting? Personally I don't like the idea of postal voting.

I was thinking about this. What if Trump died from coronavirus and Biden died from whatever, both before the election?

It did cross my mind whether he's putting it on. I doubt it... but then...?

Trump and wife test positive for coronavirus. What does this mean in regard to the election and for the US? How will Trump's base react? Who needs Hollywood movies when we have real life.

I have no idea if he's a racist or not, but he's playing a game for sure. He will literally do anything to hang onto power. I know Biden is bad, but Trump has to go.

No, I realise the aims. Admittedly though, I don't follow the news a great deal about Antifa. The problem is though that people will and are jumping on the Antifa bandwagon but are doing it by using violence, intimidation etc. It then becomes difficult to separate those from people genuinely...

Yeah, of course it does. Violence etc in films too? I think so...! People are easily influenced, even if subconsciously.

A direct line to Putin?:p:dunno:
