Trump is the value, if the bookmakers offer more than $1.50 for Biden, punters will take those odds as well.👍 realDonaldTrump aclennell Proving the old addage there's a sucker born every minute. realDonaldTrump aclennell I don’t get why the odds are $2.75 today if 80% of money has gone to Trump. Just before Trump got Covid, I saw him paying $3.15! Ludicrous. 2016 all over again I think.

Toll of veteran suicides 'continues to rise' in Australia | Sky News AustraliaSky News contributor Catherine McGregor says far too many Australian war veterans have taken their own lives in despair and are over-represented among young men “sleeping rough” in the nation’s major cities. \n\n“Those who have served on operations overseas know that the bonds forged among soldiers are powerful,” she said. \n\n“Sadly, for many, nothing fills the gap in their lives when they come home. More of our service men and women have taken their own lives in Australia than died in Afghanistan-by a factor of 10 to 1.\n\n“Yesterday marked the start of veterans’ mental health week. \n\n“It is a cause close to my heart. I led Australian soldiers on operations overseas twice and deployed three times. I bear no scars from my service, but many do.\n\n“Far too many have taken their own lives in despair. Veterans of recent conflicts are over-represented among young men sleeping rough in our major cities. Others have felt abandoned after leaving the service and trying to deal with a clumsy bureaucracy to access mental health support.”\n\nMs McGregor said the toll of suicides among veterans was continuing to rise in Australia. \n\n“It has been a tough year for everyone,” she said. \n\n“Most Australians are stressed and anxious about their future. But this week spare a thought for veterans and their families. And if you can support an accredited charity do so. \n\n“Lest we forget.”\n\nAnyone who may be feeling distressed can contact the following organisations for support.\n\nSANE Helpline 1800 18 72 63\n\nLifeline 131 114\n\nBeyond blue 1300 22 4636 any left Morrison will kill with aged care, vets affairs policy, robodebt or other wars We can all thank the Australian defenceless for this I heard from a veteran in UK that their govt doesn't want to help them. They are seen as a threat because they love their country and people. Govt encorage and look after Ilegal immigrants as their existence threatens the indigenous population.
