Well done to our friend Jacinda. Apparently, she won so convincingly that she is the first NZ leader with a majority without a coalition, in ages.
How will our conservative residents onsite react to this?
A woman in a man's job? It's part of the globalist socialist conspiracy...
Who cares how they react, Jacinda Ardern is the salt of the Earth. The world would be a better place with more leaders like her.
You're mistaking the horse for its salt.
This has about as much significance as the vote for the mayor of Kansas City.
I don't see you rushing to Trump's defence when he's similarly attacked.
Now why would that be?
Real head scratcher.
@Stav
I was referring to Ardern as a leader of a nation not as a beauty contestant. Glad you noticed
Just to confirm...
Rooi has no decency or common sense?
Ah, I see.
Insult Trump's appearance = Common sense + decency
Insult Horsie's appearance = NO common sense and NO decency
Lol
Oh, did I not mention, Rooi and company have insulted everything about Trump too?
Are they still decent and full of common sense?
Oh I don’t care if you find him repulsive.....nor does he I guess. Melania is an elegant woman who has been insulted and ignored by the media and the Left. So the outrage because a poster has a problem with Adern’s appearance is just unbelievable hypocrisy.
Nothing like veins bulging with faux outrage.
Fine, I'll say something nice about her, if it'll ease tensions.
She's always quick out of the gate.
Better?
In all honesty, I don't mind her too much.
She can do whatever she likes on her turf.
It's her clubhouse turn after all.
One thing is for sure. She's got the look of eagles.
"She then attended the University of Waikato, graduating in 2001 with a Bachelor of Communication Studies (BCS) in politics and public relations.[22]
Ardern was brought into politics by her aunt, Marie Ardern, a longstanding member of the Labour Party, who recruited the teenaged Ardern to help her with campaigning for New "
The CV of someone aiming to be a career politician...nothing wrong with that...but you don't have to be a rocket scientist for that...just smart...and she's more than smart enough for that...to make PM at such a young age though - exceptional...but to have a baby while holding office?...I wasn't too impressed with that choice...no-one can do 2 full time jobs at the same time...it was a deliberate choice...workable, but there's cost.
Politics has become a scripted reality TV-show...on both the left and the right...the world is becoming more surreal by the day...
Well, she received the majority and China is impressed.
But I am sure the minority will support her and good luck.
If the Left referred to Melania as a horse....they would be seen to be lying. Hence they wouldn’t implying in a number of ways that she is dumb......but they had no difficulty saying horrible things about Sarah Huckabee Sanders..
Hard to answer, although I do have very nice legs ....but at least we have established NZ women look like horses and still wear bloomers. Talk about being in the dark ages.... waaaaaahhaha!
"but they had no difficulty saying horrible things about Sarah Huckabee Sanders.."
And more recently attacking Barrett on matters as personal as her choice to adopt two black children.
Barrett, graciously and with an absolutely intimidating grasp of the law, saw off the gutter dwellers with consumate ease.
...and she's ever so easy on the eye too.
Another win for Trump.
"....but they had no difficulty saying horrible things about Sarah Huckabee Sanders.."
She was treated appallingly, but that was OK somehow...look, I don't condone poking fun at Jacinda's looks...nobody should be mocked for their looks, but we can't seem to help ourselves. ...sad when it becomes nasty and serious.
If you going down that track Draad let me remind you of the disgraceful manner in which Beeno carried on about Osamu Obama. No-one here said a word when he did. The disgraceful manner in which Trump carried on with his birther campaign against Obama. No-one here objected. Then there was his other daily mantra about Hilary.....went on for yonks. She was a crook remember? Well to my way of thinking people get charged, prosecuted and sent to jail if found guilty.....they then become certified crooks.
I recently watched a documentary of Obama singing Amazing Grace after delivering words of comfort at a memorial service for a police killing of a black person.
"President Barack Obama launched an air campaign against Libya on this day in 2011. The decision to order the strikes came after the United Nations Security Council passed a resolution, spearheaded by his administration, that authorized military intervention in Libya."
The greatest disgrace of all being what Obama did to Libya.
The result?
Here's an update, in case you care about actual suffering.
The rebirth of the slave trade and a brand new hotbed for terrorism are some of the fallout of Hillary/Obama's Libyan liberation.
But you better believe that Obama was all about African prosperity at Mandela's funeral.
Make no mistake, he has very much Africa blood on his hands. And lots of it is being spilled to this very day.
Yes, I hear he flew the chopper, got Hillary to hold the stick while he zip-lined down into the compound, took out all the terrorists single-handedly and then lifted Osama into the chopper.
Beeno is/was the source of a daily barrage of, at times, questionable/disputable material on this site...it would have been a full time job to fact check all that stuff back then, but I agree that he can go a bit overboard at times (most of the time )...I'm guilty of doing it myself at times. I think we all make mistakes and get our noses rubbed in it sometimes...par for the internet.
I really didn't have any interest in US politics before Trump's entry made it a circus, but there are definitely 2 sides to every story... Trump did not start this, he exposed a latent issue in Western society that's been festering for years already. Being branded a stupid redneck racist for having a different opinion on some serious issues isn't very nice...I am sorry if some of my views offend some people, I actually try to be considerate and fair to all the people I meet on the internet and in real life...
"Trump did not start this, he exposed a latent issue in Western society that's been festering for years already."
Agreed.
And to be honest, I'm surprised the republicans are going along with it. Probably because just enough time has passed since Iraq 2.0.
The problem with trying to be objective is that you'll always deal with dimwits that fail at the first hurdle and see disagreement as attack. For example, questioning a movement that at best may save tens of lives versus discussing topics that could save millions. Why are parts of the conversation beyond discussion? And if it is beyond discussion, are we still in the land of logic? Cos it doesn't seem so.
How did minorities do under Trump's first three years? If you answer that question honestly and you're a logical person, then you have to conclude that ultimately much suffering was decreased. More money = less suffering.
How is that irrelevant?
Why are the words "Trump improved many people's lives" off limits?
Where does one's own ego sit in relation to how you answer the above?
The more devastating the point the more profound the perceived attack.
"Behold, my indignation. Bow to it!"
Plum
Here a straight no BS question and I'd appreciate a yes or a no.
Do you believe Trump will win the election?
Note...I'm not asking if you hope he wins.
"Am I right, Trumpanzees? I know I am but let's hear it from you. You think the only way Bozo will lose is if the Democrats cheat, right? Yes?
Nope. I have no idea, but funny you would say that though...you are on the "Trump only won in 2016 because he colluded with Russia" train...
Yes.
Trump will win.
And more convincingly than in 2016.
"Nope. I have no idea, but funny you would say that though...you are on the "Trump only won in 2016 because he colluded with Russia" train..."
LMAO.... oh no.... some truth for a change
Noted.
What do u mean?
Hillary had it in the bag too...
I mean that manufacturing consent is the name of the game and I smell a consent manufacturing rat here. It all stinks.
Question is, consent for what?
I can argue the micro picture with you all day but in reality I'm vastly more interested in the macro outcome of all this.
Iran perhaps?
