As requested from a previous thread

www.mumsnet.com/Talk/am_i_being_unreasonable/2823906-to-think-you-should-ignore-people-having-a-go-at-you-if-you-are-the-President-Elect-of-the-USA?

It's going to be a beautiful thread. MNers, who by the way are amazing, can contribute as much as they want.

“The fact is that ... there is no reciprocity. How many Chevrolets do you see in Germany? Not very many, maybe none at all ... it’s a one-way street. It must work both ways.”

“I’m not happy with the Iran deal, I think it’s one of the worst deals ever made, I think it’s one of the dumbest deals I’ve ever seen . . . Where you give . . . $150bn back to a country, where you give $1.7bn in cash. Did you ever see $100m in hundred-dollar bills? It’s a lot. $1.7bn in cash. Plane loads.”

Not my jokes.

"The US could have made them stick to “a line in the sand”"

I had a huge argument with a trumpette who said that Hillary would cause WW3 by forcing Syria and Russia to stick to a line in the sand.

It's at times like this that I despair.

I saw this on an article the other day, I thought it described him perfectly.

"He shoots from the lip with the same lack of intellectual effort as a lot of us break wind."

Flowerfae · 17/01/2017 07:46

In* sorry

Whoever this other Ivanka is, she must've flirted with me, all women do, they did on the Apprentice, the beauty of me is I'm very rich, all the beautiful women want me and you folks here sure are elegant and beautiful

Roussette · 17/01/2017 07:59

Anyone for a Trump Tank Mug? they're all over twitter, beautiful.

Lweji · 17/01/2017 08:01

I'm not convinced. Those mugs are produced in the US.
I only buy EU now. That's called reciprocity and making the EU great again.

He is obviously very cleaver to get himself born into a really rich family. Lots of people have managed that.

Roussette · 17/01/2017 08:07

Brace yourself for the detail in this one. If the great man reads it, there'll be a twitter storm Grin

size of a grape?!

Or made cheaply in Chi-na. That would be ok, even through the trade deals with Chi-na are very bad and they're stealing our jobs (but not as much as Mexicans). And they could also have hacked the DNC emails and faked some CIA reports and global warming and Zika and Ebola and the plague, and the banking crisis of 2010, and showers.
And they stole that mini-sub too. They snatched it from the water.
And they don't like my friends in Taiwan.
CHI-NA. Bad!!!

Lweji · 17/01/2017 08:11

Let's hope he doesn't, ahem, confuse Ivana with Ivanka.

MayhemandMadness01 · 17/01/2017 08:18

I wonder if someone created the twitter account for him to keep him busy and out of the way so they could get on with running his empire for him. Is the only logical conclusion that I can come up with.

MsHooliesCardigan · 17/01/2017 08:35

That is a FAKE prostitute!!!!! I will track her down and put her in JAIL!!
Friday is going to be just beautiful, tremendous, beautiful, great. It's going to be the most special thing anyone's ever seen, really really special. And beautiful. There is a movement out there, a beautiful movement and I will make America great again. Wobbly!!!!

You are all wonderful. Beautiful, tremendous people.

Except you. Yes, you. I'm not talking to you, you're fake.

Thinking of Dr. King and great leaders like @repjohnlewis who carry on his legacy. May their example be our call to action Halo

The trump doll set includes a needle! I'm impressed!

There's a Guardian article about how we should treat Trump's stream of consciousness just like "the bloke talking loudly down the pub"

"Trump-speak is typically off the cuff, unconsidered, contradictory, strongly expressed and essentially transitory. It mixes long-held beliefs and prejudices with barely grasped facts and dawning realities. It’s like a bloke talking loudly in the pub who “just read this stuff in the paper”.

Trouble is for me...
I go to the pub and I know a bloke exactly like this who goes all the time, and he is a pain in the butt. Or arse... I'm getting too americanised here Grin

FarAwayHills · 17/01/2017 09:06

This is the greatest thread of all.

Really looking forward to sensual Friday. It's going to be really amazing with you great MNers.

MsHooliesCardigan · 17/01/2017 09:07

Does the doll come with a grape 🍇?
