Oh I totally got the sarcasm!

I have considerable sympathy for the American people and pity for the ones who think they want this. Unfortunately for my country we tend to import quite a lot of American culture and seeing what’s coming is worrisome.

The question is how long until.

At first I was “yes it is fine, so he hired a prostitute” then:

At least one of the girls was below the age of consent

Ah. Gotcha.

It is more that there’s a grift happening. What’s the odds that theres a tenuous conflict of interest here with the various business and executives concerned? It’s a small cub and everyone scratches each other backs.

… gun wrested off gang associate

I find the top three ratios interesting: there’s a tiny skew towards females but a huge skew towards males.

If I were colouring the map, I don’t think I’d have bothered with differentiating purple and green, or perhaps used more graduations.

That’s why I selected just those lines. It was an attempt at irony.

Well, Ukraine is probably also attacking Russia with Russian arms too, so perhaps Putin should nuke Russia too.

Sorry, Vlad. Can’t hear you over the rattling of that sabre.

Heaven has no rage like love to hatred turned, nor hell a fury like a woman scorned.

“Scorned” in this context is equivalent to our contemporary “betrayed”.

She’s been passed over for reward by Trump.
