I want to see the next picture, mainly to see if that thing on the Donald's head is affected by static

Re: U.S President: Donald Trump

Republicans are still winning, despite the winning candidate being arrested for lashing out and hitting a Guardian reporter... Despite Bernie Sanders coming to the State to heavily support the Democrat Candidate and try and garner more votes for Quist and more importantly, despite, Donald J. Trump being the President and all the apparent issues/memos/misconceptions/accusations, swirling his Presidency.

Quote:
Republican multimillionaire Greg Gianforte won Montana's only US House seat on Thursday despite being charged a day earlier with assault after witnesses said he grabbed a reporter by the neck and threw him to the ground.

Gianforte, a technology entrepreneur, defeated Democrat Rob Quist to continue the GOP's two-decade stronghold on the congressional seat. Democrats had hoped Quist, a musician and first-time candidate, could have capitalised on a wave of activism following President Donald Trump's election.

Instead, the win reaffirmed Montana's voters support for Trump's young presidency in a conservative-leaning state that voted overwhelmingly for him in November.

Gianforte was a strong favourite throughout the campaign and that continued even after authorities charged him with misdemeanour assault on Wednesday. Witnesses said he grabbed Ben Jacobs, a reporter for the Guardian newspaper, and slammed him to the ground after being asked about the Republican health care bill.

As 2/3rds of the votes had been cast before the assault, it's unlikely to have made much difference to the result.

Due to early voting in the state, close to two-thirds of ballots had been cast before news of the Jacobs assault even emerged
The winning candidate has some interesting views on retirement...

https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/...nl_most&wpmm=1
Quote:
In a 2015 talk at the Montana Bible College, Gianforte said the idea of retirement doesn’t exactly match his religious beliefs.

“There’s nothing in the Bible that talks about retirement. And yet it’s been an accepted concept in our culture today,” he said at the time, according to a report in HuffPost. “Nowhere does it say, ‘Well, he was a good and faithful servant, so he went to the beach.’ It doesn’t say that anywhere.”...

...“How old was Noah when he built the ark? 600,” he said. “He wasn’t like, cashing Social Security checks, he wasn’t hanging out, he was working. So, I think we have an obligation to work. The role we have in work may change over time, but the concept of retirement is not biblical.”

Re: U.S President: Donald Trump

It's also a state that's gone from +20 Republican to +7 Republican. If that swing where replicated nationwide the Democrats would retake the house in 2018. The Republicans winning Montana is like the Democrats winning LA. These aren't places the election is decided.

As the Independent said, the Dems had wanted to turn it blue and as it was not a major election, voter apathy probably resides cannot really rely on poll swings when it is not a major election event.

But Dems expected the State to go blue with all the issues I said above with so called memos/misconceptions/firings/Accusations/investigations swirling the White House.

The Democrats did want it to go blue. I don't think they realistically expected it but they thought there was a decent chance. In that sense their optimism has been checked.

We'll see in 2018. It's a tough ask for the Democrats then because this cycle is unkind to them in terms of the seats that will be up for election but Republicans should at least look at Montana with caution. +7/8 will be a relief for them considering how dire people thought it might be but it's still a dramatic drop.

Yes, because violence is the answer to everything. Come on now Gary. You support Corbyn and he absolutely hates violence, allegedly.

And a week on from when it actually happened, some say he had his foot stood on, people say you see him grimace, pats the Montenegro PM on back and comes forward. Others have said he was called forward because he is the U.S President. So many things I have heard happened, not sure which one to believe but what I do know is... The Montenegro PM was not that bothered by it when he was asked about it days later.

Yes it's true that Noah et al didn't retire but neither were they in paid work in the same way either. And after the flood we don't read much about Noah. He planted a vineyard, made wine and got drunk. The Bible simply says Gen 9:28-9 "After the flood Noah lived for 350 years and died at the age of 950"

What I think is true is that when you do get to "retire" that shouldn't mean that you simply stop. There are things to be done and I don't mean just tending your garden.

When my dad retired he seemed busier than when not. He did enjoy himself going on holidays and the like but also "worked", preparing Bible studies, preaching, looking after the garden and house but a lot of time caring for people, usually involving food.

Quote:
Russian President Vladimir Putin says that the Russian government didn't meddle in the 2016 US election, but "patriotically minded" private Russian hackers may have done so, according to the New York Times.

The statement is something of a shift from Mr Putin's past statements on the matter, when he denied that any Russian involvement in any form took place.

Mr Putin said that Russian hackers could have taken it upon themselves to try and influence the 2016 US election, saying that hackers "are like artists" who make decisions on who to target depending on how they feel on any given day.

"If they are patriotically minded, they start making their contributions - which are right, from their point of view - to fight against those who say bad things about Russia," he said.

I think when you start talking about what someone did when they reached the age of 600, you have probably lost most of your audience ..
