Maybe, maybe not, but there are interesting things down that rabbit hole:

You know, one of the best ways to get out of a Thai jail while locked up for a sex crime is to be extradited to the US…

Apparently any forum is fine by their measure. How should I know what bored trollies do when they take a break?

He’s already walked back on that. Did you really expect him to take a principled stance on anything?

I’d say being stuck in a Thai jail already counts as something unsavoury already has happened to one.

Posting anything positive about Trump would require there being something positive to post about in the first place. I would honestly be delighted. Still waiting for it, though.

This story has already had legs in Europe for some weeks. It was gloated over as a social media mishap that inadvertently proved that two men who shouldn’t be close are in fact far too close. Interesting, and quite funny as well.
But now there are Americans who seem to think that this story is all about them. Suggests to me that current day left wing Americans can be just as navel gazing as the Neo Cons of the noughties.
Beat me too it!

I recall spotting some apparent members of the 50-cent army in the comments for a post about the Dalai Lama. I pointed out that they both had two first names, meaning that their surnames were also acceptable first names, a la Bruno Anthony.
They went away and were almost immediately followed by a new account with a Tibetan name. Touché!

In a way, I am kind of sad that we don’t attract as many sock puppets here to sabotage discussion. @Alasdair_Lumsden seems to be a disposable account who already flounced. And though I have my doubts about another three day old account sticking around us happy mutants, I’ll be nice and not name names.
That said, I am curious as to why this nice lady thinks Paul Manafort is the one she can put the squeeze on. It seems his goose is already cooked. But maybe it’s because he’s the sort of dunce that might actually pay up?

So she’s in jail for running a sex seminar in Thailand? How did that happen? Did she not have the right visa or something?
I think they are not very fond of that reputation.

Honestly, Stormy Daniels is a very attractive woman. Most men[attending a Playboy Mansion party] would have a hard time resisting her. Trump wasn’t President at the time, so it’s not like he could get impeached for lying about the affair like Clinton was.

He was running for President at the time the payoff happened and the question of whether campaign funds were used and/or if Cohen used other funds collaboration with the campaign occurred. Hard to see how it couldn’t have. These would be violations of law.
And these reported payoffs show that Trump - like Jared - is compromised and highly susceptible to blackmail.
I would also question what kind of guy would do this two weeks after his wife gave birth to his son.

How does that work? Seems simpler we both keep our steel. Less moving it around. Shit’s heavy, yo!
I’m ignorant of any facts, but it seems to me that if a company needs steel, and there’s a Canadian seller a few miles away (but over the border) it would make sense to buy from them if the nearest American seller is, say 50 miles away. And of course, NAFTA means the border has little effect on the price (I think).

Speaking as a man myself, yes, she’s attractive, although she’s got porn star stank on her. NTTAWWT.
But I’ve resisted such beauty but doing the decent thing: recall my wife, either pregnant or just birthed my child, who I promised to be faithful to until one of os croaks. Or, you know, just not be a cheater.
Really wasn’t difficult.

There are different types of steel in the hundreds, and that’s just the material itself.
Then there are thousands of raw shapes steel comes in.
Building or even retooling a rolling mill just because you need a different type/size of steel girder only makes sense when you need a lot of them.
