    Plus, he's 74! There must be at least some senility there.

    I get the gist of that and generally agree except if I was voting I would want somebody who knew what they were doing and understood that the USA isn't a company or business but an international power that has influence and responsibilities, whether they like it or not. If they don't then I can think of at least one country that would happily fill the void.

    I think snopes are quite good.

    they rate this ‘unproven’ which does not mean the same as false.

    Oh please! It's unproven because it's hearsay. Someone told the reporter that Trump said it. Trump flatly denied it so the reporter should challenge Trump for lying.

    The problem is that you only get to choose Trump or Biden/Harris.
    The majority of Americans don't have a passport so I doubt they care what happens outside their borders.

    When l said that Kier Starmer might have beaten Boris it was because Corbyn was unelectable. His choices for his front bench were a joke and his manifesto was unrealistic. Kier Starmer is making Labour attractive to general voters again.
    The Democrats haven't learned yet. Standing by while a few privileged students burn stuff down won't win votes. They realised that when their focus groups told them so now Joe is condemning them.
    Like Labour the Dems could lose their traditional heartland. Biden is polling way behind Hillary.

    Actually there are multiple reports of his saying it.

    But it is unproven, which means I’m not taking it as a fact that he did say it......... nor trying to claim it could not possibly have happened.

    I didn't propose it. Eric posted the video so I did some digging. Once I saw that he didn't say it on camera and it was hearsay the rest is also hearsay. He said he didn't say it but, he's 74, he's probably a bit senile.
    For the record the presenters should do less sniggering and research what 'clean coal" actually means because it is a thing that they don't understand.

    I respect Fox News because even though they are unapologetically Pro Trump they offer an alternate opinion. Watch any of their 'Five' discussion pieces and there is always a Democrat on there.

    Does this happen on CNN or MSNBC?

    It doesn't even happen when reporters are out on the streets. Pick the nearest black protester get his opinion, but nothing from the alternative side.<grr>

    My point though regarding my post was that they didn't report black kills black cop, but they would have said white man murders black cop.(Now I'm presuming it was a black gunman because his colour wasn't mentioned)<ok> Sky Sports are getting worse with their continued bias towards blm.<grr>

    I just want to clarify that I didn't actually say that:

    I respect Fox News because even though they are unapologetically Pro Trump they offer an alternate opinion. Watch any of their 'Five' discussion pieces and there is always a Democrat on there.

    Does this happen on CNN or MSNBC?

    That is not what you say it is.
