Could a trump like figure who was more brash goon and less clown bitch have won over the military? Probably yes. The military was not on his side or in the trenches for him.

Prison guards, border patrol agents, and rural sheriffs are on his side and in the trenches with him. They all attract an altogether lower order of humanity to join their ranks compared to our military.

Buying up American land at express pace.
Soon there'll be none left for Americans to own;

https://thecounter.org/foreign-owned-farmland-increase-food-security-legislation/

As foreign investment in U.S. farmland grows, efforts to ban and limit the increase mount

Foreign investors now own more than 23 million acres of American farmland—roughly the size of Ohio.

Foreign investors acquired at least 1.6 million acres of U.S. agricultural land in 2016, the largest increase in more than a decade, according to a review by the Midwest Center for Investigative Reporting of the latest available federal data.

The state with the most foreign ownership and investment is Maine, which has 3.1 million acres that are foreign-controlled, followed closely by Texas at 3 million acres.
Alabama, at 1.6 million acres, Washington, at 1.5 million acres, and Michigan, at 1.3 million acres, round out the top five, according to the Midwest Center’s analysis.

Now got a boycott hit list.
Beijing probably won't be shaking in its boots, but we'll feel like we're actually doing something instead of just being sitting ducks 'skinned' without protest.

news.com.au

The 41 Chinese-owned wineries on boycott hit list

Aussies are vowing to shun dozens of Chinese-owned vineyards in an act of revenge against Beijing. But how much do we really know?
Wine lovers across the nation are reeling after a viral list revealed that dozens of Australian vineyards were actually owned by Chinese companies.

The list, shared by the Vino e Amigos Facebook page, has sparked boycott calls as Beijing’s brutal trade war against Australia continues to escalate, and has also kicked off an uncomfortable national conversation about foreign ownership.

But how much do we really know about what’s going on in vineyards across the country?

When contacted by news.com.au, Wine Australia – a government agency dedicated to the industry – confirmed it did not record ownership of wineries according to nationality.

The explosive list prompted many social media users to vow to avoid Chinese-owned wines in future as a result of the trade war.


#####

Well there you go.
Who knew?
We know now.
All listed.

Survey in the link;

"Will you be boycotting Chinese products this Christmas?"
87% of respondents answered 'yes'.

Seems unlikely Commander Bone Spurs would have ever gotten much traction with the military,  no matter how much charm he mustered.   But,  yes,  the current situation with nuts like Flynn calling for martial law could have been much scarier if Trump had done less mouthing off,  perhaps gotten some rogue units to mobilize.

So Hunter set aside 10% for the Big Guy but forgot the 38% due the Government?
LOL. 
Oh, and the Biden team just discovered the federal investigation that started two years ago?

UN defends excluding Morrison from climate summit, Canberra livid with Johnson over snub

London: The United Nations has defended the decision to block Prime Minister Scott Morrison from speaking at a climate summit this weekend, while also taking a swipe at the amount of money being offered to low-lying island nations in the Pacific.

While Morrison told Parliament on Thursday that he was not bothered by the snub, the government is privately furious and much of its anger is directed towards British Prime Minister Boris Johnson, who is hosting the conference in partnership with the UN and France.


#####

No worries, let them have their UN climate gabfest without Australia.
ScoMo should learn from Trump...get out of 'Paris' and stop giving squillions to the UN for 'climate Change'.
China is shafting Australia, and the pandemic has helped destroy Australia's economy, no money to give away to anyone for 'climate change'.
Guess 'how dare you' girl will be there lecturing everyone.

France and Britain?
LOL

France blew up the South Pacific for a long time with nuke tests. And blew up the Greenpeace ship 'Rainbow Warrior' in Auckland NZ harbour, killing a photographer on board.
Britain?  Time Australia became a republic.  Britain should be careful whom it goes snubbing, or William will end up being King of nothing!.
Britain blew up the Outback with nuke tests, [on Aboriginal land, reportedly].

And when your only news sources are Fox and OAN you miss news of Trump's tax scams to beat the US out of hundreds of millions, news of his abuse of power to enrich himself and his family via the Trump org., the scams involving laudering money though Ivanka, his corruption of power to get the Russians to interfere with the '16, elections, and the Ukrainians in '20, and his current attempt to overthrow the legally elected Biden administration.

But as it seems Red only watchs Fox and OAN he will no doubt keep us informed on Hunter's tax problems, as this might eclipse Hilary's e-mails in terms Fox rabidity and their need to change the subject from Trump's complicity in mass murder.

BTW, does Red know about covid yet and that its very catchy?

And I'm pretty sure it hasn't been covered on Fueher and Balanced News.

Maybe somebody give the dummy a heads up.

Yes, like Trump...ScoMo gets blamed for everything that's wrong with anything.   LOL

Britain and France would've been lucky to have had ScoMo and Josh running them during the pandemic.

That's cute.  But the usual idiocy of headlines (see Josh and his "Guiliani infects 30 in Michigan")/cute talk leading astray

Pretty much all the anti-mask crowd.   You should read the news links posted here sometime.   It would be mind-expanding, man.   Or attend any city council meeting here in the northern plains.
