First blood to Trump

I had a food delivery yesterday while my grandson and I were watching Obama's final press meeting.
The delivery man was saying that it would be Trump tomorrow, "Unless, of course, someone takes a pot shot at him before then."

ffinnochio I have never heard an inauguration speech like it. Still true to form. Nationalistic and authoritarian and divisive

Shocking speech.

Perhaps my point needs validating .

These are comments on 'this thread'. Other threads have comments of a similar nature and tone .

" I still have hopes he will be assassinated before inauguration. I initially thought he would decide he did not want to be president after all and the election would have to be held again but that doesn't seem likely now, so assassination it will have to be. Any volunteers?"

-
" I would hate to wish anyone dead, but it's not unheard of for Presidents to be assassinated."
----

"Oh who cares he will be gone in a year".
----
"As for assassination, it's likely to be a Russian umbrella.
Or a heart attack. After all, the man is 70."

"Re DT's possible demise, a fitting time would be en flagrant délit "

" I don't hold out any hope whatsoever that Trump will do anything honest and worthwhile - all we can do is grit our teeth till he gets kicked out or falls sick and dies."

" I don't think * was wishing him dead although I think the world would be a better, safer place if he were I have to say"

I don't like Trump nor did I like Clinton but I can't stand the hypocrisy of anybody who espouses 'Love rather than Hate' when they are happy to engage in this sort of rhetoric. Why is it necessary?

Was he on a loop repeating himself over and over?

Well there we are, a totally nationalist speech from a populist politician. No surprises there then

I like his wife's coat

You operate in a mysterious way, Ankers. I'm pretty sure Araabra's query was rhetorical, but there you go - you carry on doing your own thing.

Er...neither do you

But I didnt post those words Ana. You did!

And if it was from a poster 'who doesn't post too regularly' why bother mentioning it at all

I was making a perfectly normal reply to another poster!

Er...neither do you.

And if it was from a poster 'who doesn't post too regularly' why bother mentioning it at all?

So you have no idea if it was a joke or not. Or in bad taste. Or not.

You 'don't think'. But you don't know.

Let it go, let it go....

And in bad taste?

If it was the same poster I saw, I dont think the poster came back again and said it was a joke.

How do you know it was a joke then Ana?

I can't remember who it was - so sorry, you are wrong yet again Ankers!

But carry on thinking you know more than you do if it makes you happy...

A well-aimed pigeon wouldn't go amiss!

It was made by a poster who doesnt post too regularly.

So you can probably quit defending whoever it is you wish to defend.

From the sounds of it, it wasnt the same post that I saw.

(and the post wasn't one of mine, btw)

You have seen one post making a joke in perhaps rather bad tate, that's all Ankers. Stop stirring fgs!

I have seen one gran seem to want it.

Does anyone truly want President Trump dead? How vile a thought.

I'm sure POGS appreciates that thought Ankers.

Well, it's Inaugeration Day today.... always a fascinating watch.

POGS, I find myself agreeing with every word you post recently.

So do I ww, in hope for my American grandchildren, and all my extended family there.
There's a lot of goodness in America, despite the negativity about Americans that is often displayed on GN.
