Here is my view of Trump. Formerly About Advanced Micro Devices Message Board - Msg: 33684587 (siliconinvestor.com) When Trump reviewed his golf course in Scotland there were some Oil Rigs in the sea scape. He decided he didn't like them, spoilt his Golf Course, and wanted them moved. Hence my initial comment about the Scots. I can see how his style creates opponents. I don't see Trump as the big problem. Its likely he might lose out to another Republican for the leadership, but in any case he is not at the top of the list that things need to be fixed as I see it. Opinions vary, I understand that. The Putin situation is far more dangerous. I see lots of problems. The primary problem is the "lock step" of our Western press (media) these days. Its almost as bad as the old Soviet press of the 1970's USSR Era. Since those times, their press has improved beyond recognition in quality, while ours has degraded to almost continuous bs 24/7/365. I like this story I saw today. Yeah I would like the freaking Ukraine war to stop ASAP. Best way for that to happen is for people to understand whats going on over there. Technology Stocks & Market Talk With Don Wolanchuk Message Board - Msg: 33809795 (siliconinvestor.com) I have listened to good people list all the bad things about Putin. etc. Fair enough, but if Putin is such a bad hombre, why has everyone in the West sat on their thumbs since the issues flared up in 2014? I suspect, once again, its people who are out to make fast money out of wars that are driving the narrative on the Ukraine War. They will have everyone killed there, or worse, before letting up. So thats a brief rundown of my view on those two subjects.
