The best way to bring about unity would be to keep Vice President busy doing a audit on paper clips And convince mad Nancy she needs to help her This could be up there with the '£millions wanked up the wall on political correctness' by the last Labour Government and the mythical UKIP candidate but go on expand on this thought for us all 😁 A good laugh would be the cherry on the cake of what is already a great day. The floor is yours Wagmeister Quite obviously if you actually think about it To bring about unity you have to bring the majority of republicans with them Both mad Nancy and Harris are in the eyes of many are controversial figures So to achieve unity he needs to keep them quite enough not to be to controversial

Since his victory the way he has conducted himself has definitely increased my overall opinion of him. Huge job on his hands to bring the country together though and I wish him the very best. The best way to bring about unity would be to keep Vice President busy doing a audit on paper clips And convince mad Nancy she needs to help her

Last time I saw (which was a few days ago now) she was trying to make sure that if an outgoing President tries anything untoward then there will be repercussions.

Any predications on what Trump's goons will take from Biden's speech? I just heard him talking about "lowering the temperature", so I predict there'll be a conspiracy theory that he's going to make everyone live in a fridge.

Good luck America, you have a full blown commie in the office. Prepare for the end of free speech. You will be called racist or a far right extremist for disagreeing with someone’s opinion.

Even this post you are explaining how they are controversial to many republicans, and so to achieve unity they are to sit counting paperclips. Not striving for social and racial justice, exposing the power of lies, tackling covid that is soaring out of control in the states etc.. but by counting paperclips 📎 Some would argue it's quite a rude comment to make but you haven't explained why that activity would help? Maybe you are just being bigoted but I think you should have every chance to explain your reasoning, or was it just another comment of nonsense based on feelings?

I used the term counting paper clips to be deliberately provocative And if anyone found it rude I would suggest there are far more important things to worry about Why would you suggest I am bigoted have you ever voted for female prime minsters They are of course free to campaign and act on what they see fit But that was never the question it is this sudden mysterious unity card that democrats have suddenly produced And if they think letting mad Nancy lose to reek revenge on trump is the way to achieve it they may be sadly disappointed

Janet Yellen nominated by Biden. Jesus.... a 74 year old Treasury secretary and a 78 year old president. Could we have our first death in office? Why fill your office with young Vietnam vets when you could go the hole hog and find some survivors of World War 2? To put it into context, hes only 18 years younger than Jimmy Carter, and I'd say that at least 50% of this board do not remember him, googled him, still alive...

Actually I was wondering if you could clear something up, last summer you told me you were tee-total but recently I see you're really looking forward to a pint, has it drove you to drink as well or were you confused again?

To say America has been unfortunate with its Presidents is an understatement.
Funny how history paints false pictures of them. Kennedy generally has good press but actually escalated war in Vietnam. Nixon is generally regarded as a crook but actually ended the Vietnam war and "opened up" China. Reagan and Trump are regarded as buffoons but actually achieved significant success with the American economy (pre-pandemic in the latter case) Obama is heralded as a great liberal and his first action was to start the process of removing Guantanamo Bay detention camp. 8 years later he left office and it was still there. Trump naturally thought it was a good idea to keep it.
But people in glass houses shouldn't throw stones. British Prime Ministers have been a pretty dire bunch as well. Which ones would we hold up as an example of a good PM?
Of course it is not always their fault, it can simply be "events" as McMillan did, or didn't, say.
On reflection having a monarch as head of state, and above politics, isn't such a bad idea, if only we could get rid of the surplus royalty.
