Trump speech at DAVOS

His 'great sense of humour' is just him making lame and cruel jokes at someone else's expence. He has no wit at all. His humour is just making up puerile names for people he doesn't like and laughing at other people's misfortunes.

NATO countries have stepped up and increased their spending on defence.

This. All Day Long.

If folk still think this is 'funny' (like they thought Boris was an idiot, but he was 'our idiot') then they need their heads examining. It really isn't fucking funny any more.

The people of America who voted him in; do they think he's great? Are they rebelling against the 'soft left' or are they just fucking stupid? Similarly here with the rise of support for Farage. He's a tit as well, and if Starmer was doing half the crap that Farage is and has done, they would be on the radio complaining about him.

Folk have truly lost their marbles in the last decade. I seriously don't know what to blame it on any more. It's like some sort of wild rebellion mixed with utter self sabotage in the name of rebellion.

Do these people who vote for Trump et all even know what they are rebelling against any more? It's social media telling everyone they are special for 'not following the crowd / mainstream media' The joke is well and truly on them, but also lost on them.

In the meantime, the world suffers.

‘Original and entertaining’ should be a description for an up and coming comedian, not the most powerful person in the world.

USA population is 4.4% of the world.

I'm not saying Trump is right or wrong, just that reading comments on here he has been painted into doing absolutely everything wrong and the country has no hope. Ive just given facts (check them for yourself if you're dubious) that says other.

Could Trump be autistic? He has zero intonation and speaks in this monotonous manner.

Might not be those meds - my dad's chemo drugs make him talk the hind leg off a donkey and keep him up all night until the nausea and tiredness kicks in. But Trump is definitely coming across like he's on meds of some description.

Yeah the Americans have found this thread now.

Hello, orange arse lickers!

The energy comes from whatever stimulants he is given to prop him up, hence his extreme garrulousness. Anyone familiar with coke or amphetamines will know that they lend you the ability to talk the hind leg off a donkey.

Are you for real?!

Are you serious? He's terrifying.

You forgot 'racist.' His comments about Somalians were jaw-dropping. Just casually disgustingly racist, in front of world leaders. Jesus wept.

@LadyMacbethssweetArabianhand- My reality is Europe and Canada are woefully unprepared to defend themselves. They need to invest in their military. Look he's got you all talking and maybe that taking will lead you to demand answers from your government as to why they haven't spent the money to upkeep their fleet and equipment thier forces.

After everything he has said and done over the past few days I simply can’t bear to hear any more

hes an absolute loony tune

I'm listing to it now. he's just said that he loves birds. (I think). And then he said Scotland in a Scottish accent.

He's fucking insane.

I really hope Europe stands up to him about Greenland.

What was the reception to his speech in Davos like? I haven't been able to find anything on this. I presume he didn't get a standing ovation like Carney.

Well, I find him very original and entertaining!!
He did call Greenland - Iceland though - but it's an easy slip and he had had a long flight!

A great sense of humour?

Gets everyone talking?

He's the President of the United States of America, not the guy they employed to get the audience riled up before Jeremy Kyle was recorded.

The man is - and I can't stress this enough - an absolute fucking idiot. He has always been a colossal twat. A petty, narcissistic, misogynistic bully. And now he's all that with very obvious cognitive decline on top. That's not 'nonsense'. That's fucking petrifying.

He's a classic bully and thick as fuck. It's just INCREDIBLE that this utter buffoon is the leader of the USA.

WTF is this complete womble doing? In his efforts to make maximum $$$ for him and his billionaire mates, he has alienated the whole world against the USA. He clearly has some form of dementia. Why is no one stopping him?

Great sense of humour? OMG. He loves humour at the expense of someone else, yes. Not funny. Not clever. Nasty.

The US economy isn't improving under Trump, let alone 'dramatically'. Of course tech companies and billionaires are profiting, which superficially can make it look like it's growing, but most sectors are worse off, average people are worse off, and the USA has a massive affordability problem. Financing all the wars Trump seems determined to start - and dealing with the consequences when his former allies are forced to take economic actions against the USA - won't make things any easier either.

I guess the Americans are waking up and finding this thread round about now.

Fascinating and terrifying

Your reality isn't mine. He has a good sense of humour? Oh dear.

But the reality is you won't. If you take away all the nonsense what he is saying is NATO need to step up. They need to invest in their military. I think he has a great sense of humor and gets everyone talking and hopefully will story Europe into action.

Thanks @oscalo
