Mail-in voting in Ireland is very limited - only people who are unable because of their job or illness/disability ;
99% vote in person on the day in about 6,500 polling stations for 5M people open on 1 day, early to late so there are rarely any queues,

Just stop lending money to the USA government! Trump’s USA is living way beyond its means, scrounging off the rest of the world to support their maggot infested corrupt system.

Isn’t it such classic behaviour of a bully : threatening and throwing weight around, but when push comes to shove, he chickens out again. The lesson here is that the USA is so deeply in debt that he can’t afford confrontation. It’s a lesson Kings, Emperors and Popes have learned over and over.

‘nuff said.

What this means for the USA:

Imports are more expensive
Interest on borrowing is higher
Globally, oil exporters will lose & could abandon the dollars as the global trading currency- that will trigger a tsunami of selling

Suck it up bro.
