OT: American Politics

Richard Nixon, of all people, I think tried to introduce a rudimentary form of 'universal healthcare' for all Americans but failed (effects from Watergate but I *think* resistance by another Kennedy (Ted) & others who felt they could produce a better version (which never materialized). A weird individual (Nixon). Did some really greasy/dirty tricks but also was a guy who volunteered to fight in WW2 even when he could've gotten a religious exemption (he was a Quaker). Also was to have said "if gun control legislation was approved by Congress, he would sign-off on it". He wouldn't put forward such legislation himself (that was a bridge too far for him). Course, back to the "evil side" (eg., his "Enemies List", etc.,).

Still, when a disgraced former President probably looks *ALOT* better compared to Dotard....that tells you something.

I have an aunt who was a university professor in Connecticut for 35 years. She moved to the US in 1965 and was very active in both the civil rights movement and the anti Vietnam War movement. She recently said to me that if you had told her back then that she'd live to see the day when a President 10 times worse than Nixon came to power she'd think you were nuts. She went on to say that if Nixon showed up today she'd kiss him on the lips. Thats how bad Trump is.

It may be impossible from a logistics perspective however FIFA have to be looking at the risk to players, fans and staff playing in the US brings and seeing what their options are.

FIFA doesn't care. They're as corrupt and fascist as Trump. They'll "make a deal" with him.

He’s covering his own ass by claiming Dotard gas changed. Bullshit. He’s always been in his bonkers dystopian fantasy world. The real difference is that Slippery Gavin actually has to respond this time and can’t avert gaze and run for cover. He’s been hit with the random shit flinging.
