More on Trump's planned visit here. Seems he will be going to London.

Get ready.

I think we need to get trump onside about climate change.

We appear to be in the middle of a mass extinction as in the time of dinosaurs, but this time it's caused by homo sapiens.

dont really care which wing he is.
hate the freaking tellitubbie
hated him in the 80's hes a smarmy creep.
tried to override indian casino rights to get his little grubbies in on it in the sw

They really should take trump's twitter account away from him.

Trying to kill off a few million by taking away their healthcare. It was turned down in January, his own party telling him it was impossible.

not another bloody 'shock and awe'

Please no.

Spicer announced that US is preparing to go to war in Syria if another chemical attack is carried out.

That is "blow the hell out of them"

Hope Russia is OK with that

A bit of lighter relief, but serious underneath:

Trump now officially under criminal investigation

We could just ignore him (empty streets)

Can't decide whether I want him to come or not since I saw the Last Leg.

Not bothered really, as long as he doesn't get his travel ban through. It's been turned down again.
If he bans muslims from travelling to the US, we should ban him from coming here.

There is some confusion about the proposed visit of Trump:

White House says Trump WON’T delay state visit to the UK after all

However, it is known for 'weird news'

Take your pick.

Trump's tweets being used in court against him.
Careful what you tweet.

Did you see the one where they were taking money out because there was something nice to say about trump?
Only once, I think, and I can't for the life of me remember what was said that was good.

Trump obviously saw The Last Leg, then ....

Well, that'll save a bit of money. For what this election has cost we could have done something about all those people starving in Ethiopia .

Oh well that's Trump never coming here then - phew!

Just a matter of time before he is impeached, just got to wait it out, he us digging himself in deeper by the day.

One good thing has come out of the election. Trump has told May he doesn't want to visit the UK until the British public supports him coming!

Good news for climate change.
The public can help to do something about it.

www.sumofus.org are asking people to sign up to ask ceos of large companies to step down from trump's advisory board.
Some have. We need more pressure.

What I found interesting was Trump did not tweet once throughout. His advisers must be grey by now.

At the end of the first part, BBC switched to where Trump was addressing party faithful thinking he may comment on the hearing, but he didn't. He did say, 'I wouldn't call myself a politician although I must be, I'm the President.'

Comey stated that Trump was lying. There were so many questions which required him to be very sharp not to trip up, but I'm a great believer in the saying tell the truth and shame the devil. Many senators were very effusive in their praise for Comey personally and for his work for the USA. Clearly there is a lot hanging on this.

I felt as though I was seated in the room and hanging onto their every word. Compelling viewing.

His next job is staring in a spy series like Homeland.

Strong character.

ww, perhaps Trump was unaware of this before he was elected. I think he thought he could say was he wanted to get elected and then do what he wanted.

I admire strong people like Comey and Snowden.

Ginny it is riveting!

I feel in one sense we shouldn't be able to listen to this, but I'm completely riveted. He's a very strong character. So far not showing signs of strain and it's over 2 hours of intense questioning now.
