If you build a wall, I bet people will get around it. Or under it.

originalmavis · 25/01/2017 19:13

Star Parker's a daft bat. Very ignorant and gobby. Ideas trump material.

StumblyMonkey · 25/01/2017 19:15

Did you see he's just signed the Exec order to build the wall?

amispartacus · 25/01/2017 19:15

Wow - 507,000 followers for the rogues.

The wall will keep us builders busy. Us contractors will make a fortune (and I will see who will benefit there?). I wonder how he is planning on making Mexico pay?

how long before Trump follows this example, he is mates with Putin after all

I think I speak for all of us when I say what the actual fuck...several times a day.

IrenetheQuaint · 25/01/2017 19:26

Great first week. Best first week ever! More bigotry and environmental destruction to come. Exciting!

amispartacus · 25/01/2017 19:33

Theresa May must be a bit jealous about with Trump - he can just sign executive orders, she has to set out plans and go to Parliament.

MsHooliesCardigan · 25/01/2017 19:36

Fucking hell. I am actually really scared now. I studied 1984 for my A level English, it's all coming back to me in a truly terrifying way. Across and other Americans who didn't vote for this, I truly feel for you, it must be awful to have this clown as your representative on the World stage.

shakeyospeare · 25/01/2017 19:36

Can he really build a wall??

Roussette · 25/01/2017 19:36

Love that youtube link Informal... hilarious!

Just got in and put Sky News on and the fat orange one is about to arrive at a Press Conference? (unless I've got that wrong, but it seemed so...)

Will it make me slightly bilious and put me off my tea....

I wonder how he is planning on making Mexico pay?

He is/was meeting the Mexican President. We'll see.
Maybe he'll send the NY Mafia to break some knee caps. But I hear the Mexican Cartels are somewhat worse.

What I'd like to know is what he's planning to do about tunnels. He can have a Trump Tower size wall, but traffickers can still dig under it.
Or fly over it. Or go by sea.
Or even use the usual official points of entry.

But the wall will look great.
And people will be able to write wanker in big words across it.

motherinferior Yes... my language has got even worse since Donaldo arrived on the scene!

Thanks for the new thread. I am liking all these posts BIGLY!

GrouchyKiwi · 25/01/2017 19:40

Thanks for the new thread. Great thread with the number one discussion on the web. WIN.

I've been trying all day to find some understanding for people in the US who support Trump but there's no way I'm going to do the same for anyone outside of the country who does.

amispartacus · 25/01/2017 19:43

The Netherlands isn't taking him too seriously.

InformalRoman · 25/01/2017 19:43

SenseiWoo Funnily enough, DS had to be vaccinated against chicken pox to go to pre school in Texas.

originalmavis What's the betting Trump and his buddies all own construction companies in Texas, New Mexico, Arizona and California?

MsHooliesCardigan I did 1984 for A level too (in 1984, guess that was an examiner's joke), it is scarily accurate, isn't it?

AlwaysTheWinner · 25/01/2017 19:47

I wonder what Obama makes of all this. I imagine him turning on the TV in his suite in Palm Springs and yelling "Michelle, you'll never guess what the fucker's done now!"

illegitimateMortificadospawn · 25/01/2017 19:53

I think it's more likely that the Obamas are packing their bags and planning an escape. Maybe the Canucks will offer them a home?

Buddahbelly · 25/01/2017 19:56

I wonder how he is planning on making Mexico pay? Ive wondered this too?

Every morning its like a car crash on the tv that I cant stop watching with my mouth wide open, I thought we were fucked when boris johnson was all over the screens, but this is something else entirely.

I feel so desperately sad for the people who did not vote him, I really hope he is impeached soon on grounds of his business conflicts of interests or the numerous sex charges... its just not happening quickly enough.

I would pay good money to be a fly on the wall in the Obama house now.

Roussette · 25/01/2017 19:59

Oh god, he's speaking. In the third person too with lots of bumhole signs.

"I'm very happy. You're very happy".

Roussette · 25/01/2017 20:03

He's banging on about the Wall. "We're going to get the bad ones out and we're going to get them out fast"

He's making some truly horrible faces in this press conference.

Lweji · 25/01/2017 20:04

He's definitely increasing jobs. More border officers. I hope he's got the money for all that.
