    All he had to do was run off to Europe with his buddy Palansky.

    Wonder why he stayed.

    Oh well, those in Europe would have loved Harvey just like they do Palansky.

    This is an exact quote of what you wrote in Debates:

    "It has already been established years before you were on site intelligence and ratings having nothing to do with how smart one is!"


    Now, I accept that ratings may not link to how smart one is, but 'Intelligence'?!

    Once upon a time, there was an old man who used to go to the ocean to do his writing. He had a habit of walking on the beach every morning before he began his work. Early one morning, he was walking along the shore after a big storm had passed and found the vast beach littered with starfish as far as the eye could see, stretching in both directions.

    Off in the distance, the ...[text shortened]... his one powerful person is a start - it made a difference to me and a lot of other people.

    All it gave you and a lot of people is false hope!

    Hell a lot the rich and powerful can tell you when the stock market is going to change. I don't know if anyone saw the coronavirus coming and China held on to the information for at least a month without saying anything.

    In Debates he recently said that intelligence had nothing to do with being smart.

    Ok, I should have said that differently your chess rating has nothing to do with how intelligent or smart you are! 😛 😉

    All you did is pick up on my mistake in the way I worded it....LOL....

    I wonder how many languages you can speak, read, or write. I figure one ENGLISH!

    Even 15 years would be enough to remove him from power. I think he is a broken man already.

    Do you think he will do 15 years?
