A shocked world yesterday listened in horror as Mr Trump conceded defeat to the Russians, saying ‘you may think this makes me look like a weak and defeated man, but I have to say this is far from the truth, just look at the way JD Vance and I beat up that little man from Ukraine.’ ‘Not only did we throw him out but he had to leave without having lunch.’
Whilst, we in the western world may see this as the beginning of the end for us with the continued march across Europe of Mr Putin’s stormtroopers, taking country after country Mr Trump sees things very differently stating, ‘there’s a different sheriff in town now and I’m putting America first, so if Europe wants to keep funding the war, that’s up to them, I’m out!’
So, not only is Trump abandoning ship, he’s leaving Europe without any lifeboats and although he never said, ‘I’m alright Jack, pull up the ladder,’ he might as well have.
Whilst Mr Trump’s version of negotiating world politics is more like the bullying tactics used to brow beat a less affluent competitor in a race to purchase a golf club and may well succeed with President Volodymyr Zelenskyy but I can’t see it working with Mr Putin especially as he has just seen how weak Mr Trump is having just thrown in the towel.
I know most American’s grasp of world geography is abysmal and Mr Trump obviously has a vision of Putin just marching into his immediate neighbours which I assume is why he is willing to leave us in Europe alone to get on with it. We are used to seeing world maps with America on the left, Europe in the middle and Russia on the right, however when looked at on a globe one can see the remarkable proximity of Russia to America. Perhaps, it might be useful if someone were to point out to Mr Trump just how close his neighbours are.
I am a retired actor, although to be honest I only retired because I wasn't getting any work due to losing my agent when I became a full time carer to my mother who had dementia. and the option of becoming an unemployed actor/waiter at my age was ludicrous, especially as my waiting skills are non-existent.
Having said I’m retired, I don’t think there really is such a thing as a retired actor for I am still available for work, I just don’t have an agent or any connections with regards to obtaining any worthwhile work.
I have over the years done student films when there is nothing else available, always low paid (if at all) the only incentive was always the promised copy of the finished film for your show reel which nine times out of ten always failed to materialise.
I spent many years looking after my aged mother and shortly after her death I was lucky enough to run into an ex-girlfriend of many years ago and our romance blossomed once again, resulting in us getting married in 2013.
My move to the countryside inspired me to write The Diary of a Country Bumpkin which tells of my continuing dilemmas in dealing with the rigors of the countryside from the unexpectedly large number of pollens, fungal moulds and hay products waiting to attack the unsuspecting townie.
I enjoy writing, see my play Dulce Et Decorum Est Pro Patria Mori on The Wireless Theatre Company, The Plays Wot I Wrote and The Battle of Barking Creek both available on Amazon.co.uk and am very fond of classic cars so my ideal occupation would be acting in a film I had written set in the 1930s/40s, we live in hopes.
I am delighted to say that since venturing to the countryside where space is not quite the premium it is in town, I have due to the availability of two double garages acquired more classic cars to form a small collection the pride of which are a 1947 Bentley Mk VI and a 2000 Bentley Arnage.
My various blogs and websites are continually evolving and I’m sure that by following the appropriate links you will find something which will edify or amuse.
I have written a number of different books all available on Amazon, so don't be shy should you feel the urge to purchase. https://www.amazon.co.uk/Mr-Joe-Wells/e/B06XKWFQHT/ref=dp_byline_cont_book_1
And I believe between Russia and Alaska (America) there are two islands, Big Diamede and Little Diamede, very small and very close to each other, seperated by the Date line. Big Diamede is Russian and Little Diamede is American. Yes they are very near to each other.. I a sure my geographical knowledge is more than Trumps is.

Everyone knows more than Trump!
