'Bang a drum for Donald' would make a great slogan, and after all he's surely already a paid-up member of the 'orange' order.

And here you have the Tory view of their 'precious union' in a nutshell. We don't want Trump cluttering up our nice city with those nasty demos - send him to Scotland instead.... Aye, right.....and we won't protest here? http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-scotland-scotland-politics-43908976

They are a very sick organisation of which NI should be ashamed.

You think that the group is an NI problem only?
Really?

LR didn't say that. Read people's posts properly before coming on all superior and patronising.

That’s not the Tory view. Stop lying and quit with that tedious chip on your shoulder.

Have you ever visited "Trump Turnberry"?
The locals, who once patronised its' facilities, won't touch it wirth a ten foot barge pole.
The so-called business genious has managed to alienete a populace which is desperate for employment in a very hard pressed rural area. MY own presbytery of the Kirk - which has Turnberry within its' bounds - has expressed deep concern on this matter on several occasions.
So, yes, you bet there will be demos...most of them from disgruntled locals who used to use the facilities.
His organisation has actually banned one disabled group, and quadrupled the fees for another, thus stoppiong them using his facility.
Demos? Yes - you bet!

What’s that got to do with your claim that the Tories were trying to push him up to Scotland? You really can’t blame the English for what he did to Scotland, although you do have my sympathies because he is a blight on everything he touches.

Trump's doctor claims it was Trump who wrote the letter claiming he was in excellent health, which he purported came from the medic. Surprise, surprise.

Let's hope he is right. If Trump pegs out,, we'll be left with President Pence.

Would he be any worse?

Yes.

Pence is a far right conservative Christian and also a mildly competent politician. That means he has some obnoxious ideas (at least in the eyes of those of us with less extreme views) and a chance of actually getting them implemented.

And he's a politician.

There are some good politicians, like my father, who was well thought of. There is a portait to his memory in a prominent place in my home island.

There are many portraits of politicians, statues too - doesn't mean that were good at anything other than being remembered.

Thank you for that! However, my father was well thought of as he did an excellent job in the posts in which he held office. Even the Queen sent a rep to his funeral.

The point is nothing to do with your father. It's to do with saying that because there is a portrait, a statue, or a rep from the Queen, doesn't mean that the person is good for anything else than being remembered.

This week Donald Trump’s former doctor, Harold Bornstein, prepared a formal letter about the president’s health which he says was dictated by Mr Trump.

Shouldn’t he be struck off?

Also, to say that having Mr Trump’s medical records taken away left him feeling ‘raped’ is a ridiculous statement.

Medical professional? I think not!

So his challenge should be ignored?

Yes.

Can you understand the difference between having bad ideas but being too incompetent to get them implemented and having bad ideas and being competent enough to get them implemented?

Why do you think that making a speech that many of his supporters will love is anything other than good politics?

Simple retort. Hospitals with blood on floor vs Schools with blood on floor.

Harrowby Hall · « **Reply #1122 on:** May 05, 2018, 10:34:52 AM »

He made the retort in a speech to the NRA. His version of preaching to the converted.

I hope he gets the public welcome he deserves when he arrives in London.

If you were negotiating some deal with the USA on behalf of your country, how would you convince your parliament that the USA can be trusted not to renege on its commitments?
