Trump scrapes the bottom of the barrel

Well said June Rose. Very eloquently put. I absolutely agree. Thank you.

tiggermu389 I would defend anyone’s right to free speech but really, you should listen to yourself. Has it never occurred to you that there are many, many peaceful law-abiding black citizens who are treated with distrust and discrimination by “God-fearing” white people? And your comments about Obama, the Clintons etc seem positively delusional. I guess you invested a lot in Trump at the start and your blinkers can’t see wood for trees. I feel quite sorry for you.

Oh dear. Strange how the media is being blamed for airing his actual speeches. His own twitter account makes him look worse than the media ever could. The man is a beligerant, idiotic, malignant narcissist. It's evident from his own mouth.

It is so frightening that someone like tiggermu389 is actually a voter with a say in who is and us not president in her country.

Even my wee grandchildren are open-mouthed when they catch a glimpse of this insane man on the news.

Where do these ideas come from? What is happening in the US that people are brought up to think like this?

It makes me feel truly despairing.

Even more frightening is the fact that religion is used to back this up.

I had hoped tiggermu389 would have returned for further discussion. But after rereading the original Trump style deluded post it’s clear it was never going to be a discussion.

All that was missing from the post was “FAKE NEWS!

Trump is a delusional, arrogant narcissist who cannot bear to be questioned.

Sadly many of his devotees have the same characteristics.

Tiggermu389 Carry on idolising your disgusting President who is, in my opinion, a blight on humanity. Don't expect others to share your admiration though.

The way he has dealt with everything since he became President is a disgrace. I truly believe there is something wrong with him and he is a danger to his country and the world.

Thankfully, not all Americans share your racist opinions.

"I DONT CARE WHAT HAPPENED OR WHO DIED"
really???
absolutely no need to put that in Capitals tiggermu389 you message came through loud and clear in your tone

I’m wary of anyone brandishing that immoral and ammoral book m!! Wouldn’t let my kids or now my grandkids near it.

Not to worry you Folks, but this is our new trading partner once the no deal Brexit happens in January.

Watching Trump on the news a few nights ago his demeanor reminded me of my mother when she was in the early-ish stages of Alzheimers.

Here is a Food Standard Petition to sign Maremia or others who haven’t already seen it.

It’s from the National Farmers Union and it aims to stop the import of cheap poor quality meat from the USA via a Boris- Trump trade deal (slid in under the chaos of this virus hoping no one will notice).

Like the UK, the American system of voting needs overhauling. Trump gained 304 votes from the Electoral College whereas Clinton gained 227. However, HC won 49% of the popular vote compared with DT's 45.9%. In terms of numbers the margin was just under 30 million votes.

I know you are right but the idea of a truly PR system seems a long way off, both here in the UK and there.

Certainly the Conservatives won't want one.

First-past-the-post has been exploited by Mr Putin and others who want to destabilise the West and delivered appalling governments in the UK and the US.

Donald Trump says he’s ‘most honest man in America’ then lies moments later

Donald Trump branded himself ‘the most honest man in American’ then lied about coming up with his former defense secretary’s famous nickname. The president replied to a tweet about former special counsel Robert Mueller on Thursday morning, writing: ‘Mueller should have never been appointed, although he did prove that I must be the most honest man in America!’ Shortly afterwards, he retweeted a false claim he first made Wednesday night about former defense secretary James Mattis, saying: ‘Probably the only thing Barack Obama & I have in common is that we both had the honor of firing Jim Mattis, the world’s most overrated General. I asked for his letter of resignation, & felt great about it.

Do you think the U.S. has things in common that occupied countries do as a result of Donald Trump being elected into office?

I cannot pinpoint exactly when it began, perhaps someone else can-

My guess is it began before his inauguration but became "formal" or "offical" the day of or after his inauguration when he lied about the size of the crowd and convinced others to support that lie with false statements and photo-shopped images-

It's been all down hill and slippery slopes since-

Personally, I've been feeling like a fish out of water .. Like the South has risen up again .. And that the South is everywhere now ..

Thanks Furret, will check it out. It might be the same one I have already signed. Not much else we can do while Johnson/Cummings stay in power.

Apparently George Floyd is looking down and thinking this is a great day, according to Trump's latest pronouncement.

It all beggars belief.

It makes me sick to hear Trump insult this man who was a martyr to the brutality of Trimp's USA.

Trump is disgusting . I wonder if he knows he is disgusting or if he thinks he is a good man.

I suspect he has absolutely no self awareness. He is like a toddler who just seeks immediate self gratification.

I still find it hard to understand why so many Americans voted for him.

I think there is a certain sort of American who finds him sexy. Perhaps because they like a leader who says simple catch phrases.

Unfortunately we also have poeple in this country who like simple catch phrases like "take back control" and "get brexit done" which is why Vladimir Putin is laughing all the way to the bank.

In spite of presiding over the basket case of a Russian economy, Putin is the most successful politician in the world.

Just look at the reports into Russian interference in the US presidential election in 2016 and the fraudulent UK -EU referendum in 2016.

Sorry you might not be able to access these reports.

Alexa please no! I almost threw up my dinner there at the thought of Trump being seen as sexy ?

Varian, nice politicians need to take the great Salvationist's *advice that the devil does not own all the good tunes.

Good people can have catch phrases too. Perhaps this is condescendingly populist but needs must when the devil drives
