Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!
Rules:
- Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.
Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.
Example:
- Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
- Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
- No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.

All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.
That's all the rules!

Of course there are forest fires in Austria. The climate of the northern Alps is not conducive to fires, but the south is more vulnerable.
If you told Trump there were no trees in Austria and sounded authoritative, he would believe you.
Then where do the koalas live? Checkmate mr or Mrs flyingsquid
I am not a lady squid. But I am married.
I suggest that the only austrian trump has ever met was arnold schwartzeneger
The problem is that you should show Trump a forest and explain forest fires to him, and he would think he's smarter. His head is too far up his ass to think about anything that doesn't please him or feed his ego.
Well yeah, you can't change his mind once it's made up, but you'd tell him Austria has no trees and sound like that was really true and he would argue that Austria has no trees for the rest of his life.
Many people are saying there are no trees in Austria.
All we'd need to do is show him a map and cross out the forest parts with a sharpie.
Being as rich as he is means being surrounded by people trying to kiss his ass, praising his every stupid idea. Over time that turns into thinking he’s way smarter than everyone else. He probably thinks he really solved the forest fire problem.
But what happens if I find a stranger in the alps?
