The sheep does not need to stand still to be eaten, only that the sheep does not have the power to stop the lion

If the goat becomes angry and scratches its hoofs on the ground, he still cannot bite the owner
I hope you know this is what supposed lion Russia thought about supposed sheep Ukraine, and is what lion China will think when it invades sheep Taiwan.

It's a pity though, that you think might should be right, but I'm delighted most don't reason like you do, especially not the sheep and the many other animals who can gang up and defeat your lion because they know they are next once it's done with the sheep.

Why does the feelings of all these country matter to an American who wants to be great?
They too should go ahead and be Great without America

Okay Greenland Canada Venezuela Japan will not vote for Trump or Americans greatness but how is that our business?

A lion does not concern himself with the opinion of sheeps
Not only those countries, but the supposed sheep in USA too who are opposed to what the lion does and who will be concerned when the sheep don't vote for the lion.

But that's beside the point. Its funny you think lion America can survive all by itself when all the foreign sheep stand against it.

Time, will open your eyes.

At whose expense is America becoming Great?

And why would Americans care about them becoming Great at your expense? why do you matter to them so much
Why does Canada, Venezuela, China, Europe, Japan, Mexico, Greenland, etc etc etc matter so much?

I really wouldn't expect you to have a clue!

I go with EVIDENCE and always EXPECT and prepare for worst outcomes, that's how I've lived my life. I don't do emotionalism and moralism because morals are dictated by biology. I deal with THE FACTS of human nature, such as....humans are inherently RACIST, RELIGIONIST, CLASSIST and whatever else...it's a survival mechanism, all the non-Igbo on this board campaigning against RACISM in the USA have no love for the Igbo in Nigeria, I don't bemoan it, it's natural.

I also expected that Donald Trump would lose the Nov 2024 Election and be sitting in prison by now. My comments on Nairaland are there, I always said that the last election would be my test of whether the USA continues as a prosperous and free Republic or not, just as the 2015 Elections dictated the economic crash in Nigeria. I always wrote that Nov 2024 is actually Mar 2015 in the USA. My comments are there.

Good Luck to Nigeria.

FarmilyFinance:
Your Family Can Do Better In Improving Your Family's Farm Finance (FFF) ....
I think my family has grown past the stage where it would be improving its finance by literally farming.

You see. I learnt from my parents who themselves were not farmers (their parents were), that if I put a seed in the ground and tend it well, it can produce a thousand fold crop. So I farmed the seed that is my family and it has produced a million fold crop. And the 'produce of my farming' are farming the seed that is their family and I'm certain they would produce crops many more times fold than mine.

Basically, my parents evolved from their parents and farmed us, and my children have so evolved from me that literal farming is not what we do to improve our finances. It's a hobby I do like though, I confess. And one to learn a lot from.

Men are Gods
I don't quite get the context of this, but I'm so glad I know Gods are figments of the imaginations created by human beings to mostly oppress and sometimes educate their fellow human beings, though often, the men are as dumb as their gods.

But nations of humans that learn to consciously create their own Gods do indeed become Gods.

I'm sure you can't give a proper definition of weak men you are talking about. If you think all the men getting married are strong men then that shows that you are not well educated about the thing called marriage. Men marry for so many reasons same with women and that is a personal decision, it has nothing to do with strong or weak. Beside, we have weak men, irresponsible men that are married. If you carry this your mentality into marriage, you will be totally disappointed.
No. I don't "think all the men getting married are strong men". I don't even think all the mean and women getting married are strong or weak men and women neither.

There's lots of men and women in the world, and they are not all strong, and lots of them get married for various reasons to strong or weak or responsible and irresponsible partners, so there.

As for your "carry this your mentality into marriage", perhaps I should introduce you to my grandchildren so you can tell them this, though I must say, they are all very strong men and women already.

nnamdi640:
Strong woman indeed someone that is referred to as bed to bed midfielder, continue deceiving yourself, the main reason they are not getting married is because they have reduced their values, most single men don't see the needs to get married because they get all the benefits married men gets, just name it, if it is sex that one is now pure water. In the pass, women respect their bodies which makes men to chase harder, now men don't chase again because they now understand that chasing something someone else is getting for almost free is a waste of time. In summary they are loose women but not strong.
Thing is we are getting married. Just not to the numerous weak men out there who can't handle us.

Those who can handle strong women are chased by us because you are worth being married to, while the weak useless mindless ones create threads like this blaming women instead of working on your own weaknesses and deficiencies.

This must have been my parent's philosophy when they were birthing us.

We mostly grew up in Lagos so farmland we had none, but we still grew our own vegetables and some cassava, yam, maize, pepper and bitter leaf on the little patch we had, and I can't forget how our biscuit was pawpaws of which we had loads.

My kids though, would think all food comes from a supermarket, except for the spinach we grew in the garden, and the apples and pear trees.

Farming is the one thing I miss not being home. It's sort of been replaced with ubereats or a trip to a restaurant.

You can just put on Google

DC crime rate drops in 2025, Memphis crime rate drop in 2025, Louisiana crime rates drop in 2025. Do it for most big cities and you will see the same thing

I am sure the Left will start protesting that crime is too low and Trump is discriminating against crime
I don't think the Left will protest that crime in DC that began dropping under Biden is too low.

In 2024, D.C. experienced similar reductions across the board including a 30-year low in assaults with dangerous weapons and burglaries.

In fact, I think it is dump who wouldn't appreciate this decline in crime since its a trend that began before him.

Although these figures are based on MPD’s reported data, the 47th presidential administration has expressed skepticism about the department’s crime statistics, claiming the reports are intentionally manipulated to downplay crime rates in the District.

My source is of course selected to promote my own bias and should be considered with a huge dose of scepticism, along with that expressed in the source itself.

I guess so too but believe that he knew exactly what he was saying and was saying it to rage bait to make money until it backfired. His mom was a teacher, he is not from the hood raised by a teenage crack addicted mom even though he likes to pretend to be gangster. I believe, he has enough knowledge. Even if your mom wasn’t a teacher, slavery a choice? You don’t need to study a lot to know this is totally nuts. His problem is that his fame got to his head, he developed a God complex and made terrible business decisions that have not only affected him but also his marriage.

Anyway, another Trump fan down.
I too think he should have learnt from his mother, but his "slavery a choice" made me doubt he had, and the way he paraded his new wife confirmed his insanity.

I'm not exactly a fan, as in, I don't know much about him or his music, but I doubt he was this dumb in his first marriage. Or was he?

Perhaps his head bump really did make his brain not work for a while, and now he's healed. I'll believe it when I see it.

He needs a skill, so I'd suggest he go learn mechanic or something like it that he can pay for by serving his trainer. The nursing he mentioned also sounds good, but he sounds more like one who prefers shortcuts instead of sweating from his brow for his success.

I bet he might actually regret all that he has said and done, especially if its negatively affecting his earnings.

I don't exactly think he uses his brain much regarding these sort of issues though. He definitely doesn't come across as having knowledge of history, and given enough time, he'd likely flipflop again.
