Seems like that cheesed off China a bit, but he should be pushing for removal of China from the UN Security Council. He should also call then Hong Kong Citizens at every turn, and he should offer to replicate Hong Kong’s exchange in the U.K. if that’s possible. The U.K. has to take the lead on this because they were a party to the 2 party agreement. Max pressure or Taiwan is next. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We locked down less in US therefore our money was the least damaged, no country that truly locked down is coming out well 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That decision was made to reduce idiotic restrictions and requirements that the UK would be forced to comply with. They decided against it. Wisely so. Their government has never limited these restrictions, so you you get what you get. It's going to be a tough winter for Europe, but it is the result of their own doing.

But … it appears they’re going all American now. Everyone is getting their teeth fixed. It’s no fun anymore. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

She said she ran out of the dentist there with the bib and chain still around her neck. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
