@ponderable saidI believe that would be the second time you asked that question on this page without an answer.
Am I too late?
Well I guess it would make it the previous page now! 😉

@ponderable saidAs many as you want, this tavern is always open.
Thank you for having me.
I will have another cider.
(Will there be the usual suspect to point out that I ordered one before?)
@torunn saidAnd if you're pouring, me dear, I'm drinking.

Join me in a libation? 😀
@earl-of-trumps saidSure! 🙂

@earl-of-trumps saidBe careful. The cider is made from apples grown in an orchard owned by Liberals.

@handyandy said… but it tastes the same as any other cider, Andy? 🙂

@handyandy saidNo? I'm hopeless on politics but I would welcome the opportunity to hear your views.
Not always.

@torunn saidI consider myself a moderate, maybe a shade to the left. I lose my patience when I see conservatives aimlessly denouncing Democrats. I firmly believe that Donald Trump is corrupt and totally unfit to be president. I also believe we could learn a lot about government from Sweden and some of its European neighbors.

@handyandy saidI grew up in an environment where nothing was missing. I was born just before the end of the war (where we were not directly involved), and from then on we felt, rightly so I think, that things were steadily, gradually improving. Everything got better. I can't recall when I felt things changing but today's society is not the same, even though I believe, as you, that it is far better than many other places. We just have to be aware of it and take care of it.

@torunn saidUnfortunately, at least in the U.S., a battlefield of hatred has sprung up between political opposites. The future doesn't always seem hopeful.

@handyandy saidBecause all people don't always want a peaceful place to live, they don't know what it is worth, what it has cost and how far we have actually come. That view isn't shared by everybody.

@ponderable saidThat's true, if we want to keep people from turning against each other.
In Germany People will tell that there are two Topics not to be mentioned in public: Religion and politics. Not that many people adhere to this.
