Trump speech at DAVOS

I believe it was the rest of NATO that triggered art 5 on the USA's behalf so we could go to war with them....

Something Trump seems to have forgotten

I agree with every thing you say. He is not a good man and never has nor will be.

Well get your popcorn out because it looks like he’s going to have to be told no multiple times for the response to his Greenland plan to sink in. I wonder what the stress of being told no for the first time is doing to him?

And who did you call after 9/11 to help you with Afghanistan? Yep, that’s right…NATO! You didn’t try to manage that alone, so I would say the US is also woefully unprepared to be able to act alone militarily or otherwise

He's a fucking moron.

He’s thick as pig shit and a narcissistic megalomaniac sociopath of a bully, who I do believe is starting to dement on top of his other psychiatric conditions. He behaves like a disregulated toddler who thinks the whole world revolves around himself with mummy telling him he’s the best and the most special boy. He’s never been told no and has not evolved from toddler

Nato stepped up when the US invoked article 5 after 9/11

It is exactly like that but I rather fear that he's appointed people as dreadful as he is to the praetorian guard.

Just catching up. Did he really say to the audience that if it wasn’t for the US you would be speaking German, whilst standing in Switzerland where the majority language is German?

Mwah ha ha, I was thinking that...

This is like the mad Roman emperors. Where's the praetorian guard when you need them?

Yes I think so too. It's too easy to blame it on dementia.

Nigel is funded (at a very deniable distance) by Putin. Putin has plenty of dirt on Trump. Nigel and his bosses would be very happy to see NATO fail and the UK align itself with an isolationist USA, because then Putin can get on with bothering Europe in peace. Dont ever fall for the nonsense that Reform is acting in the interests of the British people.

That as well maybe but the USA chose to be the worlds Police Man, chose to spend all this money on defence, no one made the US do this....

You chose to invade Iraq and Afghanistan because of an attack on your home soil, not ours.... yet it was the Europeans that triggered article 5 and went to war on your behalf and the UK lost 457 troops, Denmark, a tiny country, lost 43 soldiers... fighting a war that had SFA to do with with any of us in Europe, yet it caused millions of migrants to head our way, not yours....

Also, your country is unreliable, agreements made and signed into law, turned on their head, no rhyme or reason.

I ve always had great fondness for the Americans, your country sacrificed a great deal in WW2 in terms of blood but now you've elected a President that has wrecked everything the USA once stood for, it wont be won back easily, a lot in Europe wont forget this.

He makes me think of Discworld too, but Cosmo Lavish.

Though the name Foul Ole Ron does sound better when referring to trump

The USa is trillions in debt and multiplying.by the second, probably faster under trump than any other time. He has acquired well.over a billion in the last year and his organisation billions more in deals worldwide. Let's not forget the trillions of dollars added to the coffers of his billionaire friends. Theres an an article.out in NYT( ?) about just how much he has brazenly grifted.

He transferred monies gleaned from Venezuelan oil to an account in Qatar...not to Americans ...to a bank account in Qatar. Same place that's giving him a plane that wont go to America.

And still the maga plebs think.he is in it for them.

We're talking about Trump not the united states. There is a very big difference and they're not very united.

The events of the last 10 years and people's inability to engage their brain even a tiny bit in any issue beyond the surface makes me think there should be a mandatory intelligence test before you're allowed to vote.

Democracy was nice, but apparently we can't have nice things.

Dignitas instead of Davos

I didn't see the Davos speech ramble but it sounds equally as bonkers and rambly as the press conference he did last night.

whats his beef with Somalians? Last night he said they're only good for being pirates. Btw did he mention today that he's got rid of all the pirates now? Oh actually, I remember him saying the somalians won't vote for him, so that probably explains his hatred.

What did you think about him banging on about bars on windows and mental asylums yesterday whilst his Mother telling him he could be a great baseball star?

Or calling countries 'shitholes' or a working US Rep, a pirate and she only came to the country because she married her brother.
Or 'grab them by the pussy' and calling a female journo 'piggy'

Is that entertaining? Or original? god help us..

The man is mentally unwell and anyone still defending him at this point is delusional.

@Mangelwurzelfortea- when you throw out comments like that it all it does is shut down discussion. I'm not a Trump arse licker I didn't vote for him. I do however agree that the US spends an awful lot of money on causes that don't benefit us at all and we have been shouldering more than our fair share when it comes to security and it's time for the rest of NATO to step up.

*“The Ogre does what ogres can,
Deeds quite impossible for Man,
But one prize is beyond his reach:
The Ogre cannot master speech.

About a subjugated plain,
Among its desperate and slain,
The Ogre stalks with hands on hips,
While drivel gushes from his lips.”*

This from W.H. Auden came into my mind earlier while listening to Trump.
