Update as per today: Donald wants to occupy, buy, steal or rent Greenland. Not a new idea for him but it shows strategic thinking. I bet the next candidates would be Canada and Mexico. Make America even greater again.

Bubi, I think you've missed one, he wants to take back Vietnam...

if you haven't seen, the current reports of the folk in the USA losing their minds over drones -

Consider this.

T'were I so inclined, and I was in America, and felt mischievous towards the denizens at the lower end of the IQ graph,  in my local USA neighbourhood:

I could do worse, than take my nifty Drone, I got from Amazon, out at night and turn it's little lights on and fly it over places that I presume, are where Americans live. (being in America this would not be difficult)

When the battery got low, I would retrieve the Drone and go home.

T'were there others like me, this could happen multiple times, in the dark, even becoming a popular sport.

Like when a large number of people gamed google,  to skew search results for "idiot" to give Donald Trump as the search result.

Of note:

Don't shoot the Drones

Fury grows as US politicians demand answers about mysterious drones

Alien Drones

But the best IMHO, is the speed and agility of the capitalist system wherein, mere days after these stories started appearing, there is a chap on major TV channels, from the Company "Drone Shield" with the title "Director of Public Safety", telling credulous journalists all about these Drones,  that the average American should be very afraid of.

This might be better than the Trump show, remember Orson Wells' War of the Worlds, radio broadcast?

We now have 2044 pages of posts on this thread.  I'm tempted to suggest we at least start a new thread, if not separate it into a couple of separate threads. Maybe all the discussion of OrangeMan's idiocy can be in it's own discussion?

So what would be left for the USA thread? Mr. Jigger to avoid this fine board to go down the drain I may suggest to invest some thought into limiting some participants to insult other boardmembers, dead or alive. Recently observed hostility should not be tolerated. Over to you.

No way, One thread is enough, some would say one to many, last time I checked the board was still Thai360 and not Trump360.

Years back when a certain pain in the ass kinda high jacked things with his right wing crap, it was suggested that the board suffered as a result of all the American political discussion etc… Mekong is correct, we are Thai360, NOT USA 360 or trump360. While I can appreciate the discussion and comments, it does detract from the true intent of the board which is “Thai 360” all about ex pat life, punter life, immigration, sights to see, places to eat etc…the things that can attract posters and create “board traffic” and hopefully advertisers to offset the costs of running the board. Perhaps a “return to basics” is in order?

     This would pose the “horns of an enema” as they say…as we have, slagged on board members past and present, though justified for the sake of discussion/context, it has been done. Of course there are those who for one reason or another, wore out their welcome here at ‘360 and were banned and banned again when they didn’t get the message the first few times… No need to allow established trouble makers back.

I'd post more and bring back old and new members if we got rid of all the non Thai shyte including this thread. Delete it.
