Maybe they should have an upper age limit of, say, 70 for candidates. Doesn't seem like a bad idea. Keep senility away from the nuclear codes.

You'd have to say 61 or younger at date of first election. Might be better to have a 'no dickheads' rule but there might not be many left if you ran that. |

There's an upper age limit for the military so why not commander in chief? If you're at or close to it on your first term then you only get one term. Makes sense.

You have to give time for the candidates to travel by horse and coach around the county. Ok, so we have trains now. Is what they probably said 100 years ago. |

Well it was inevitable that some cunt would leak his tax returns and equally inevitable that it would show he was a tax dodger and massively in debt.
First question is how much damage this will do among his moronic cult. The penny will drop for some of them but a lot of the dribblers will go "gee, that makes him smart."
Second and perhaps the biggest question is his reported debt of over $400m which is due to be paid back in the next few years. How much exactly does he owe and to whom? The national security implications of this are huge and it will be interesting to see what other information and analysis will trickle out over the coming weeks.

The high level of detail suggests authenticity and the wording of the response from The Trump Organization seemed carefully constructed. The practice of inflating asset value to obtain finance and deflating to avoid taxes is exactly what he's being investigated for in New York is it not? Other than that, the Trumps stole $2m from a kids cancer charity. Most of us would be extremely surprised to find that he had fairly paid all his taxes. |

Yea, he's back! My fuckin hero! Felt better than he did 20 years ago. So pleased he now understands the virus, having learnt from the real school.
Jeez, looks ill. Either that or he ran back from the hospital.

He gave a speech later.
"Now I'm better, and maybe I'm immune, I dont know"
He thinks he is better? Not contagious any longer so no masks? He doesn't know? He said he knows all about covid earlier.
