1st June 2017; the date the US under Donald Trump finally relinquished the last vestige of any global leadership.  Mr Trump's decision to leave the Paris accord shows contempt for the rest of the world, valuing the rust belt votes that put him in power above all else, setting the US on a downward trajectory dwindling into isolation,and irrelevance.  Now is the moment that China will establish itself in the role of global leadership; better start teaching your kids Mandarin.

I do not believe China in a position because of it's population to establish any real world leadership.
You think the USA has only power if it is friendly with everyone else?
The facts are that countries keep in good relations with the USA because of the power the country has, both military and  money wise.

Global leadership is about power not friendship. It the Countries who do not support the Donald Trump who are the ones who do not support the leadership and choice of the American people their way.
It does nothing to diminish the power that the USA has.  China will never be accepted in a role of global leadership.

I am glad you realise I would only smell it, and not be those presenting it...
You did understand your comment didn't you?

Being close to it, is not the same a producing it.
Do you think of yourself as a presenter or a smeller?

No Floo, he is not untouchable. The problem is that his position in the constitutional entity which is the United States of America is so central and pivotal that the prosecuters must ensure that there is no possibility of error.

I would have thought the crazy way Trump behaves in public makes him unfit for office, at the very least it should seriously call his mental health into question.
and your qualifications in such matters are?

He thinks he untouchable, probably because he's always succeeded in bullying his way though life in the past.

Does the way he behaves suggest all is right in his top storey? I seem to remember that details of his mental health were kept under wraps.
And again what qualifications do you have in such matters?

He's not bonkers, merely daft and totally out of his depth. In my unqualified opinion.

Trump's an American floo & Americans are inclined to have their mental health checked out more than we do.

Just read a couple of articles in the Independent in which eminent psychiatrists cast their doubts on Trump's mental health without knowing him, based on what they see of him.

However he did release a current medical report after Hilary said she would:-

Probably because it was vague, unequivocal. I mean, if he was schizophrenic no doctor would say Trump was fit but if he has had reactive or clinical depression, anxiety, panic attacks or the like, well, so have lots of people. It doesn't make them beyond the pale by any means but people are shy about revealing that sort of thing.

No doubt, when he is no longer President, we will find out more details.

So, Trump has been vindicated once again...

Having read the article it appears - not my surprise, I have to say - that you don't seem to know what the word 'vindicated' means.

The result in Georgia was predictable.
Trump & his supporters will certainly feel vindicated and use the result accordingly.

Trump just proves over and over again how unfit he is to be President. :o

From Pew Research : "U.S. Image Suffers as Publics Around World Question Trump’s Leadership"

Only two countries (Israel and Russia) reported higher confidence in Trump than in Obama. Every other country reported dramatic falls in confidence in the American President.  Angela Merkel now regarded as the most favoured world leader.
