I don't. I think he lives in a little fantasy World of his own making.

Last time he put in an appearance in the UK there where a lot of protests, so maybe even that daft clown might have noticed he isn't welcome here.

If you listen to his pronouncements, it's clear that he has constructed his own little narrative. For example, the Mueller report is fairly damning in terms of his obstruction of justice and yet he is claiming it is a witch hunt that totally exonerates him.

I take your point. Trump does seem to think he is some kind of saint.

Breaking news: a thief has broken into the White House library, and stolen both of President Trump's books - and to make matters worse, he hadn't finished colouring one of them in.

Steve,

Do you wonder why Trump is a rich business man and president of the United States whilst you are not?

Let me see why would anyone think this comment is useful?

Do you think your joke works when you put your positions in life side by side.

He is the one having the last laugh. You are the one whose cage his position has rattled.

A joke belongs in the joke section not in politics and current affairs. We may never see eye to eye with trump but a man who owns and has developed most of New York and is now the President
is not a man you can make such jokes stand about. Whatever you may think he is an high achiever and he is successful.

I'm pretty certain that he know this already. Stand by for the promotion of hormone and antibiotic riddled beef and chlorinated chicken ... as his contribution to a post Brexit deal for Britain.

You believe our cattle are not given antibiotics or vaccinations?

You yourself know that antibiotics will pass out of the system of whoever takes them when course finished.
You also know that if you use them too often then they are likely to stop working.,

What is it, with everyone they do not want to think for themselves?

We do not need chicken from the USA or the beef. We can do as we always did, make our own.

Trump is a very sick joke! He has made his money in a very dodgy way, he even boasted about having accounts in tax havens during the election campaign!

Would you mind telling us where you obtained this piece of information?

Steve doesn't seem to be around much but one of the reasons is that Steve was not born in the USA.

Nobody claimed it was useful. It was funny though.

Of Steve and Trump, Trump is the one most likely to end up in prison. I doubt he will have the last laugh.

I quite agree. Let's evict this joke from the Whitehouse before he screws up even more.

He doesn't own most of New York. I don't know where you got that idea from. Did you know that Trump Tower has 58 floors but there are gaps in the numbering to make the top floor number 64. Do you know what that is? It's Trump lying about the height of his building.

Trump lies more than any other president in history by a factor of at least ten, maybe a hundred. Trump has told more than 10,000 lies while president. Is that the conduct of a man who deserves our respect?

Quote

Well he achieved the bankruptcy of five casinos.

Get your head out of his arse.

Your whole post is constructed in such a way as to leads me to the conclusion that you, like Trump, are an admirer of that great god Mammon.

I'm pretty sure there is a book you are fond of quoting that isn't that keen on that particular false god.

Delusional or what?

Look on most frozen chicken meals and more often than not the chicken comes from Thailand, I repeat Thailand, how this is even cost effective beats me. That however is not the point, we have not been self-sufficient in supplying our own food for decades, we are currently hovering at about 60% self sufficient. We have to get it from somewhere.

I wish you would engage with facts before posting nonsense.

Trump is claiming to be strongly pro-life except in cases of rape, incest or if there is a serious risk to the health of the mother. As Trump has a reputation for not being able to keep it in his trousers, I wonder if any of his victims have had abortions?

There’s a new drama on BBC called Years and Years, Trump features in a pivotal role. Whatever criticisms of the writing and characterisations might be made, I thought the scenario was chillingly plausible. Takes me back to the 80s.

I’m finding it hard to be optimistic. If Trump gets re-elected after everything he’s done and said, there’ll be no effective constraints on idiocy. I’m glad I’m not a young person facing the future now.

In one way, Trump hasn't really achieved much at all. The problem going forward will be with the Supreme Court.

I'll have to watch out for that. Who plays Trump?

Nobody, but the story predicts a second term for Trump which drives one of the storylines. It is on the evidence of the first episode well worth watching. In fact I found it rather brilliant. But I am biased as I like nearly everything RT Davies does.

Hi Christine
I thought it was brilliant, and all too plausible. I thought Russell T. Davis squandered too much of his talents on Dr Who (though fans are no doubt grateful to him for its resurrection) - but he's given us much else that is superb. Including A Very English Scandal re. Thorpe.

A glance at the world leaders around doesn't inspire confidence: apart from Trump we have Bolsonaro, Edogan, the Crown Prince of Saudi, Assad, Kim Yong Un - what a bunch of beauties! And who's that Italian guy - I'll have to look him up... Salvini?

One of these two is an overweight, blond, hard-right nutcase with a silly hairstyle, and is a serial adulterer and a serial liar, and the other is President Trump.
