Its not americans , its republican voters

39% of GOP voters & that is still quite hard to fathom

Its worth remembering in a recent poll 22% of voters believed tariffs were paid by foreign countries

This has been clearly and regularly discussed & only really stupid people would still think .....

Referring to the US midterm elections on 3 November,
Clooney told the Hollywood Reporter in response:
“I totally agree with the current president.
We have to make America great again.
We’ll start in November.”

White House aiming to get final approval for Trump-backed ballroom by March

A look at President Trump's strained relationship with lawmakers
After vetoing bipartisan bills,
President Trump says
he doesn't want to deal with Congress.

(Unbelievable.

No, he's too busy trying to do (pretend) "deals"
in every country BUT this one. (his own country)

Compare this to your own parents.

My parents, mid-80s.

For years, my dad has had to do the
one-aspirin-a-day.

Neither of my parents have ever had bruising on their hands, or elsewhere.

And neither of them have ever had a drowsiness/sleeping problem.

Trump told the WSJ that he has started applying makeup to his hands.
January 2, 2026 at 7:42 AM
Bruising on an elderly person's hand is often due to

thinner skin, less protective fat, and weaker blood vessels that break easily from minor bumps,
January 2, 2026 at 7:31 AM
While excessive aspirin use can lead to bruising due to its anticoagulant properties,
it is a myth that this bruising is specifically or solely found in the hands.
January 2, 2026 at 7:14 AM
... “They’d rather have me take the smaller one,” Trump added. “I take the larger one, but I’ve done it for years,

and what it does do is it causes bruising.”

(I am waiting for the obit:
Trump dies from "chronic" aspirin overdose.
He took a larger amount, for years.)
January 2, 2026 at 7:02 AM
... “They say aspirin is good for thinning out the blood, and I don’t want thick blood pouring through my heart,” Trump, 79, said of why he takes a larger dose. “I want nice, thin blood pouring through my heart.
Does that make sense?”

🤣

Keep in mind that he might also be, lying. (AGAIN)

Anonymous relatives of Luka Magnotta (born Eric Clinton Newman) described him in news interviews as a "nut job" and a "ticking time bomb" following his link to the murder of Jun Lin in 2012.
January 1, 2026 at 10:32 PM
"Magnotta is a nut"
is a sentiment echoed by relatives and news sources in reference to convicted Canadian killer Luka Magnotta.
A relative described him as a "nut job" and a "liar".

I would suppose that they believe the other inmates
in a medium-security prison,
are not as bad as those in a high-security prison.
January 1, 2026 at 9:53 PM
The killing of inmates even occur in
maximum-security prisons.

(To make things easier)
(well-known names) Magnotta and Bernardo
were allowed to be sent to a
medium-security prison.

(Does that make sense ???)
January 1, 2026 at 9:38 PM
Luka Magnotta's prison husband is a fellow convicted murderer named Anthony Théophile Jolin.

Magnotta and Jolin married in a civil ceremony at the Port-Cartier maximum-security prison in Quebec on June 26, 2017. Magnotta's mother served as one of the witnesses.
January 1, 2026 at 9:28 PM
Both notorious Canadian killers Luka Magnotta and Paul Bernardo were transferred from maximum-security to the medium-security La Macaza Institution in Quebec in separate, controversial moves that became public in 2024 and 2023, respectively.
