The problem for us in the rest of the world is that we can't believe how many Waynemarks there are in the US to have voted Trump back again - like what is in the water supply over there? Oh, and thanks you guys for the imminent fuel shortage, probable inflation, the resulting lift in mortgage repayments, and the possible WWIII and / or recession.

I guess if we can’t afford to visit the US, sending your countries lived experience to the rest of us is something, I guess, we should all be thankful for?

We still have quite a number of lead pipes in the not so United States.

It's destroying the brains of many Americans. Oh, that and Fox News and fundamentalism!

At first I questioned whether I had been sucked in through a wormhole that suddenly appeared in the space time continuum, but as I continued to read, I finally understood that I'm not in Kansas anymore. Your decision to bring this new contributing author into the fold is an absolutely brilliant idea! He'll add some tongue-in-cheeky coloratura to the team. Can't wait! Let the games begin!

Is Waynemark any less despicable than the 80 plus million Americans who didn’t bother to vote at all and let the vampire in?

Thank you for that. I needed the laugh. I look forward to it. Can't wait to see his "Profile pic"

I, too, think this plan is beyond clever! Comic relief, as only Closer to the Edge can concoct!

“Is what happens when a human being spends a decade marinating in cable news, viral outrage, social-media echo chambers, and a constant stream of political spectacle until politics stops being an opinion and becomes a personality.”

There should be a full revision to America’s cable ‘news’ because the 2024 elections was proof that any thug can ride into town in a Trojan Horse, and speak only lies, and dance on stage like a drugged party crasher and get elected.

The fact that he can procreate is rock solid evidence that the deity that the religious proclaim to believe in, clearly is a deeply flawed deity.

That is so damn funny, but why can't I stop crying? We are in so much trouble, treading water in a sea of morons. We cannot give up though (read my post called We Cannot Give Up).

Wow! Unbelievable!

Get a life, why don’t you! What about your family, friends, and life in general.

Don’t you have anything else that inspire you? Why?

If this is all you can count on, what a miserable life you will have when that piece of shit is gone!

Please don’t. We have enough to worry about without this craziness!
