Trump speech at DAVOS

If the problem was just the ‘context’ tbe press sec would not have felt the need to lie about what he said. We are way beyond ‘context’.

I listened to it live and I assure you it was bloody bonkers, made no sense whatsoever and was fairly insulting not only to past presidents but to most of the people in the room.

Indeed, and let's not forget that the ill-conceived 'missions' as you call them (well, Iraq really) massively contributed to depleting our military - the very thing this infuriating administration is berating us for. They are truly awful. It's like an abusive relationship.

Apologies if already mentioned but I thought Rutte’s reprimand re Afghanistan was brilliant. Firm, fair and direct. Made Trump look like a bit of an idiot.

I’m resentful of this narrative that European countries are freeloaders, riding on the coat tails of the States but failing to show up when needed. We’ve done nothing but show up - WW2, Iraq, Afghanistan, heavy human price paid as well as heavy financial price. The States made us pay them back for WW2 but guess what, we didn’t receive a penny for assisting them in their ill conceived ‘mission’ in the ME 🙄

They then have the nerve to criticise our levels of immigration when they were the ones desperate to destabilise the countries which then resulted in that immigration.

Good for Rutte

Why? He’s bought industry back, their stock markets are booming, he’s reduced the cost of pharmaceuticals, stopped Illegal immigration, reduced pharmaceuticals prices, has stopped government wastage, exposed corruption, pays less into NATO, is currently passing a bill stopping big companies buying up single occupancy & first homes & bought gas prices down. He is America first hence why the European leaders don’t like him because it means we have to pay more for the things America had subsidised. Whilst his approval rated has dropped in America if an election was run tomorrow he’d still win.

I’m going to listen & you’re most certainly probably correct but in truth the European leaders do need a dressing down so it’s probably the one thing I’ll be nodding along to

Where did I state I was ok with trump wanting Greenland?

I didn’t so I’d appreciate you not assuming. I just said I didn’t believe it was a tactic to divert the Epstein scandal. How you came to that conclusion shows insular your mind works that any defence on Trump intentions means I must be in favour of his actions. No, that’s ridiculous assumption, I was purely stating the truth how I see it.

I haven’t seen this belief reflected anywhere but feel that this whole Greenland thing has been a rather clever diversion to take attention away from the Epstein files. Aren’t there still some yet to be published? Has the world been sucked in?

I haven’t seen it yet. But have you listened to all of it from start to finish or just the sound bites? The media time again prove they’re nothing more than propaganda mouthpieces. The BBC are actually being sued for a dr’d speech he said that made the context of what he said the complete opposite. The speech was about an hours long so if you’ve only seen about 5 minutes of it then you’re misinformed and should listen to it all before passing an opinion.

He spoke about wanting Greenland

And you think "wanting" another autonomous territory is normal acceptable behaviour for a leader? Anyway it wasn't me that suggested it was anything to do with Epstein, I don't think he cares about that at all he knows he is a Teflon President. I am annoyed that he thinks he can walk all over people's lives because "he wants" to, so as I said likely a sociopath

He spoke about wanting Greenland long before Epstein became a much bigger headache. He didn’t need this to deflect attention. He has just literally taken a leader of another country out of his own home and put him in a cell in America.

If that is true it proves he is a sociopath the stress, anxiety and disruption he has caused in Greenland is unforgiveable. I was watching videos of elderly citizens who were so upset and worried said they were not sleeping and sick with worry. Who the f**k does he think he is that he can completely disrupt peoples lives like that. He is running America like it is Trump inc. and every other nation like business to negotiate with. The world and society are about a lot more than making money but he does not see it that way at all. Nothing he says can be trusted because he changes his mind so frequently. I actually think it is pathetic that everyone just sat listening to him go on for over an hour with utter rubbish, inaccuracies and misinformation and insult so many nations as if he and America are the GOAT when the opposite is true, they are such enablers not a backbone among them.

As the old Egyptian saying goes: "Oh Pharaoh, who turned you into a tyrant?" "No one stopped me," he replied.

I feel soooo sorry for the Americans. They have a sick child for a president, making himself (and the USA) ludicrous on the world stage. He doesn't have even the vaguest grip of what is going on. He's laughable.

Can someone please explain the difference between Iceland and Greenland, and between Denmark and Norway to the demented old sod.

It'll be a long time before anyone can take the USA seriously again.
