Because we are a net importer of energy? Should we drill baby drill?
Was the same even when we were a net exporter up to the mid 2000’s.
How about not having a sig at all?

What other factors do you think mean the war will affect us most?

I'm just setting out my case for maybe why we should riot and that it started long long before Trump had anything to do with it.

Go for it - so it’s because we’re going to be hit hardest by the war, but not because we’re net energy importers?

Jon Stewart's weekly summary of Trump's craziness is always worth watching.

Cheers,

Everything single day there’s something more and more bonkers going on.

Yesterday a group of grown adults behind a frail and uninterested looking Trump tried to mansplain how he worked out his 600% reduction in the price of drugs.

I know American stupidity is the new normal, but I still find it utterly insane.

It sums up the entire Trump administration pretty well doesn’t it. Rather than admit that Trump is wrong and doesn’t understand basic maths, he assembles his entire cabinet to gaslight the world that his maths was intentional and correct.

its promo for the new unpopular ballroom. i expect there was nutter with a gun (they’re not short of them) that got as far as the front entrance, then they hammed it up so trump could show the need for a new ballroom.

This one? Cameraman showed great composure.

There’s also a few vids taken by people in the audience while the security bods were on stage pointing guns into the crowd. Would you really be holding your phone up to a load of armed people scanning the room for a ‘shooter’. Load of bollocks :lol:

Still, a great reason to cancel the state visit.
