I get the feeling most of these guys haven't left the county they were born in.

Yep. Also France, Germany, The Netherlands, Belgium and Mexico. I spent a whole summer once in northern Minnesota which might as well be Canada.
By the way, France, Germany, Belgium and The Netherlands I have been to on more than one occasion.

I get the sense you wouldn't admit a country was better than yours even if it was. ?

Well none of those countries have the level of freedom or self determination the US has. Amsterdam definitely has ( or had) better weed. And there are no doubt certain specifics that are better in other countries. Health care for example. Almost never taxes though. Almost never freedom of speech or assembly. Almost never the right to bear arms. Definitely none of the countries that I have been to.
Here's a story. In Amsterdam once a month someone from the city comes to inspect the flu of your heatilator. And subletting is illegal. There is a long waiting list for housing in Amsterdam. So most people have to pretend to be someone else once a month. The Turkish dude I was staying with's official residence was in Utrecht. He had to pretend to be someone else. The woman he had, who he rescued in Germany had to stay in the house pretty much 24/7. He was a Dutch national but she had overstayed her visa. Also they forced a steel IUD in her when she came into the country. She was a refugee from Uzbekistan. Her husband was high up in the military and beat her and her young son Sefula. She tried several times to leave. He told her if she left one more time he would kill her. Her and her son made it to Germany where 3 guys "Took" her with designs to turn her out. That is where Zafir ( he went by Victor, but his name is Zafir) found her and rescued her from these three shitheads. Anyway, he takes her to Amsterdam with him, they force a steel IUD in her so she doesn't end up having any anchor babies and she overstays her visa so is pretty much in hiding. Yeah, he took care of her, but dude, he treated her like property. It was extremely disconcerting, especially for my wife. She communicated with Zafir in Russian ( he spoke 5 langauges fluently, she spoke two, including some dialect of Russian) So one day he had to go to Den Haag for work ( whatever that was, it was definitely sketchy) and we spent a whole day and night with her. We communicated, by pointing at stuff and saying it and writing it down in our language. So by the end of the day we each had a somewhat little translator book about basic things. So we learned a lot of Russian and she learned a lot of English. We had that little book and a picture He gave us which hung on our wall for 16 years until the flood happened. It was a framed Arabic word or sentence which when translated meant something along the lines of God is good ( probably Allah is great). That was 2002 very shortly after 9/11. We went back in 2007 and we couldn't find him or her and her son. Turns out he went back to Turkey and joined the military. I have no clue what happened to Elvira and Sefula.
My wife and I both enjoyed Europe very much, but there's no denying we were relieved to be back in the US.

Those would be some of my top priorities in evaluating a place to live. I haven't lived in another country for any extended period of time but I've been to some varied places. I'm happy to be from the US and I don't know that I'd rather live anywhere else, but I don't think we're really more free than many other countries except in a couple notable and important ways, namely the 1st and 2nd amendments.
As for Canada, it's a vast and rugged land with great cities. Yeah it leans left, but in the same way as some American states, meaning the rural parts are more conservative. Look at the trucker strike for example. Those dudes meant business and Trudeau et. Al just about shat their pants. Probably did actually.
And like Australia, they have a higher overall standard of living than we do. And they invented the best sport in the world lol. So I don't knock 'em.

Dude, I got nothing against Canadians or Australians. People from Southern Illinois are all very much like the people where I live. It's not their fault Chicago runs the state. I would never live there though. I don't even go there. In fact, and I am not kidding, I will drive around Illinois to get to Indiana.

If there were such a tape, it would have been aired every hour for the last 4 years.

I don't see how you guys can deny they were buddies. Trump even stated he knew Epstein liked women on the younger side. Pretty apparent Trump does too.

If the deep state had any incriminating evidence of Epstein and DT, it would have been plastered everywhere.

The question is whether there is any taped abuse or claimants against Trump related to Epstein and his island. I think Trump is a pervy rich dude but I also believe in innocent until proven guilty. What seems telling to me is that now that he is president he's refused to declassify the Epstein files. If there was no dirt on him there, it would seem to be to his benefit to release them.

He was apparently friendly with most of DC and all of Hollywood. That in itself isn't particularly incriminating. And you can't deny that if there was anything there it would have been all you heard about for the last 4 years.

We will see what happens, he has only been president for a few days and Kash Patel has not been conformed yet.
