Just reading the sad updates around William Chapman, the young man who jumped into the Tiger enclosure and was unsurprisingly mauled to death.
I then went on to read that Trump, in the middle of the night, some time after this news broke, generated an AI post of him fighting a tiger and “winning”, with music in the background.
How utterly callous, thoughtless, mindless and thoroughly tasteless to do this.
What goes through this man’s mind? He’s leader of one of the world’s most powerful and wealthy countries, has he not got better things to do with his time?
Just when you think he simply cannot get any worse ……
Tell me Trump is not an agent of Putin and a traitor to his own country and NATO.
It seems there is legislation in America to enable a President to be removed from office if he is deemed unfit.
How many stupid, ignorant stunts does he have to perform, how many alarming and irrational acts does he have to threaten, how low does Trump have to go before this is implemented?
This video is the work of a very sick mind.
I think he has a laptop set up to receive voice commands to AI`. I can easily imagine him ordering it to create whatever image comes into his mind and then telling it to publish it to Truth Social. You don't need much brain or capability if you've had someone set things up for you.

Listening today - apparently Trump supports the young thugs at Cornell, who drugged and raped a young 20 year old girl.
He’s named her “The dog”
What?!!
Seriously??!!
No wonder he wants to keep the Epstein files under wraps, I can only imagine what kind of sick shenanigans he got up to.
And this man is also presently putting the whole of Europe in danger by enabling Putin.
Zelensky feels betrayed, I feel sickened by this as well as everything else this man has done to cause war, division, discord, offence, injury, deaths, and total incredulity.
I feel disturbed by how much I absolutely hate this man.

White wave, your post at 15.02 today seems to have silenced us all. I read it just as I was about to join the condemnation of Trump I was and remain so shocked, horrified etc etc I’m still beyond a coherent response
There are Republicans who will be, I'm sure, incensed by that comment - and the 'tiger' AI generated reel, if they understand its significance.
But equally, among his inner circle, he will be defended in whatever way it's possible to defend such behaviour, and I'm not sure that there aren't some - like Hegseth for example - whose moral code is very similar to Trump's.
If America can't find a legal way to rid itself of this president, then I believe we should never trust them again. With apologies to i'maround and others...
I agree.
If this situation cannot be rectified then we should never trust the US again because this man has been voted in twice.
Who next??
Vance??
Hegseth??
I share that concern Fallingstar. My father, royal marine in Ww 2 and grandfathers ww1 didn’t admire the USA for its late arrival in their wars. They resented the way the Americans claimed they won the wars.
Trump though, is beyond understanding, his boasts, distortions and lies know no limits.
We share a language and history but not a culture, thank goodness

Yes it silenced me. Rory Stewart on TRIP, they were talking about what Trump had done just in one week.

What is even more worrying, IMO, is that the US is no longer giving Ukraine any warning of Russian missile attacks. Apparently the US is the only NATO country which has the technology to detect missile launches.
Trump is working as a Putin ally...Or maybe that when he asked for help it was declined. So really why should he help them.
Can you expand on that?
I'm curious about that, too.
Sorry, this is a theory. Didn't mean to make it sound like more than that.
It makes sense in being the most likely scenario. We have already seen them try it once. The only guardrail then was Mike Pence, and the crowd wanted to hang him. Vance will not do the right thing this time around.

Trump is accurately representative of the American electorate: stupid and ignorant. They got what they voted for.

Not sure where to post this. Found it over on Reddit and it makes total sense.
The real risk here is the time between Nov 3rd and Jan.
This is what worries me and I have said this on one of the Trump threads on at least one occasion.
Why the USA persists in using a power transfer system designed around the time it would take for a horse to travel from coast to coast continually mystifies me. In the UK the power transfers immediately on election.

I didn't know this.
Are his opponents (must be everyone who follows news at all except for dyed-in-the-wool MAGA) scared that if they implement it he'll try suing them for an astronomical sum of damages?
The way he uses legal apparatus to intimidate & get his way in a country with supposed checks & balances is scarey.
Trump's Republican Party has control of both chambers of Congress ie the House of Representatives and the Senate- a 'trifecta' which has given him great legislative advantage and he's also changed/manipulated the judiciary landscape to his favour.
If Trump does poorly in mid term elections, 🤞🤞, Democrats could gain control of the House of Representatives. This would give the democrats subpoena power I think, and the ability to investigate Trump and his administration. But would still need to get over judiciary hurdle.
If Democrats do really well in mid terms and gain control of Senate also, my understanding is the Democrats could veto Trump more e.g. could veto his judiciary appointments. (imaround do correct me if I am wrong) and be able to limit Trump much more for last 2 years of his term.
If Republicans keep control of Senate and House- heaven help us all for next 2 years. Trump will be emboldened and claim a fresh mandate. I think unlikely though.

WWM, I think he was referring to the special prosecutor in the case of the Cornell rape as a dog, not the victim. Bad enough…
Yes the female prosecutor Letitia James was appointed to oversee the Cornell fraternity investigation with whom Trump has history.
Trump said the male accused fraternity members won't 'get a fair shake' with James, calling her the dog.
Equally bad, very bad.
Lemonjam knows her stuff.
Yes, there is multiple ways to remove him. It can only be done if the people who should remove him aren't in on his grift.
I watched the itv programme on Reform yesterday. I was more shocked and disgusted than I expected to be. The misogyny , racism and bigoted male dominated behaviour amongst Reform activists is scarily similar to the Maga supporters.
That's why Farage is so welcome in the US Iam64. He is just like Trump in that he is all about the money and basically has no ethical beliefs. He sees his supporters as people to be used and probably derided but because he "connects" with them, they like him and think he is a "man of the people" when actually he is anything but.
Roll on the mid-term elections, and 🤞🙏 they’ll be a long overdue wake-up call (I don’t mean for Trump, he’s IMO only ever going to get more deranged/Putin-esque) but for Congress or whoever needs to decide that Enough Is Enough.

If anyone has any doubts about Trump's sanity, you might like to read the above article from CNN which covers some of Trump's latest pronouncements. They include disgusting Islamophobic comments including calling a Democratic Senate candidate "a Jihadi", completely unsubstantiated nonsense about children being mutilated in mass transgender surgeries, using the name Shylock as an antisemitic slur, dismissing the idea that the naturalized American citizen is entitled to constitutional rights because she is originally from a “shithouse” country, mocking the credentials of a Christian leader whilst presenting himself as a pseudo prophet etc. The man is clearly deranged!
Thanks foxie48, I read the article and shared on my sm site. I’m aware of the gransnet position on keeping comments on one thread separate from others. I hope I’m not breaching guidelines by linking concerns about Trump’s ideology to that of Reform, especially as demonstrated in the itv investigative piece
Reform’s press team readily acknowledge the often had to defend the indefensible, Trump and Farage simply deny, redirect or lie when confronted by truthfully based challenges
The internet I’m told, is full of suggestions Trump is doubly incontinent, in the final stages of dementia, I might be wrong in saying he’s slightly too well physically coordinated and able to express disdain and anger towards those he identifies as idiots to be end stage dementia. My personal/professional experience is we often become more likely ourselves in old age. Trump is increasingly narcissistic, verbally aggressive towards anyone who challenges him and totally certain he’s right and anyone who disagrees, isn’t just wrong they’re stupid and better watch out.
Farage is our very own racist, misogynistic, bigoted, dishonest, lacking any moral base or empathy, mini Trump. I try too avoid unnecessary drams but that itv investigation shocked me, left me thinking is 1938
