Trump is one of the few people in power who is really seeing things as it is. Watching a broadcast this morning it revealed why Trump is making other countries look out for their own defense.

France riots is due to many things including the fact that the president of France Emmanuel Macron's Plans to Create an 'Islam of France. The country already has MEN ONLY quarters and even cafe's, bars and other public footpaths which are MEN ONLY.

Italy is now thinking of leaving the EU.

When are people going to wake up and smell the coffee.  The WORLD is a stage.... but for whom the bell tolls is a different story.

The EU now want to build a European Army...Trump is no danger but a united Europe with an army is a very realistic danger. Especially with the force of Islam being pushed on every country in that union.  Call Trump all you want and fear your Brexit but we have  greater problems and being out of the EU is our safest bet.


It is sad that you can't see what a dangerous clown that man in the White House is! But I suppose it isn't surprising  you support him as you appear to be a right wing extremist. >:(

Being out of the EU with a wild man in the White House, sounds exactly wrong for the UK.  We can't look to the US as an ally, so who?  China, yeah, right.

Trump is a dangerous idiot. He has no grasp whatsoever of geopolitics. He doesn't understand the economics of international trade. He's a liar and a crook.

He's also a serial adulterer and has admitted sexual assault on tape.

I recommend you read Fear: Trump in the Whitehouse by Bob Woodward. He doesn't read his briefing papers. He doesn't listen to experts. He gets most of his "information" from Fox News.

True. The first is a quote from As You Like It by Shakespeare. The second is a novel by Earnest Hemmingway.

If we weren't Brexiting, we'd be involved in any European army - or maybe vetoing it.

Trump's charitable foundation is to close down as there are allegations he used the funds for his own use!

Allegations, not proven yet. I loath Trump, but let's stick with proven facts.

It is not the name of a literary work by John Donne, it's a quotation from Devotions Upon Emergent Occasions, Meditation XVII. Sassy said "for whom the bell tolls is a different story". The only story I know called "For Whom the Bell Tolls" was written by Hemmingway.

No. They are like people who are leaving a sinking ship because a rat is in charge.

Has anyone seen the short video sequence showing the latest departing person (Defense Secretary, I think) with an army officer and Trump, saluting during the national anthem? The other two are ram-rod rigid but Trump is swaying to the music.

Righty ho. We now have a deadlock situation. The Federal government is partially shut down because Trump will not sign a budget that does not include his Wall into law, and the Dems will not pass any bill that has funding for the Wall in it.

I see two possible outcomes

1. The Dems make concessions to at least make it look like Trump gets his Wall funding

2. The Republicans eventually come round to the Democrat point of view and help them to force the budget bill through without a wall.

A third theoretical possibility "Trump backs down" exists but I don't think any of us believe he is going to do that.

I guess that:

4. This impasse continues until either Trump is voted out of office or the Dems lose control of the House and the Reps control 60 seats in the Senate

also exists.

Place your bets now...

I feel so sorry for the people who are in financial difficulties due to this Government shutdown, the longest in US history!

The net is closing in. It's getting to the point that the Democrat House of Representatives will have to impeach even if there is little chance that the Senate will convict.

Compared to Trump, Nixon would have been a candidate for sainthood.

I think that you imply an important point here. People talk as though impeachment were some kind of trial ending in a punitive sentence (eg removal from office). It is not, it is an investigation leading to a statement of possible wrongdoing. It is an indictment not a sentence - as the impeachment of Bill Clinton demonstrated.

Yes, that is completely correct. The House of Representatives impeaches the President. This means they think he has done something that makes him unfit to be president. Once they have impeached him, there is a kind of trial in which the Senate (currently Republican controlled) acts as the jury.

I happen to think that if the Democrat controlled House impeaches and the Republican controlled Senate acquits, that would be a complete catastrophe for the Democrat Party which is probably why they haven't done it yet.

Does Trump attract crooks to his staff or does working for Trump turn people into crooks?
