It's been just over a week, and what a week. Amazing. So good. The best.

Interesting that Zuckerberg us not happy.

To be honest i think thats what is making Trump an extra special cunt

Signs off on abortion in foreign aid - on the same day as the womans march

Signs off on barring people on religious grounds - on international holocaust remembrance day

He is doing it on purpose the scum sucking, shit for brains fuckwit

The best part of him ran down his fathers leg

Zuckerberg's wife's family are immigrants. Stands to reason he's not happy with this.

UN, France and Germany have condemned refugee ban, while May's silence is deafening.

"I would live to be a fly on the wall in Downing Street. Do you think Theresa May has an alert for his tweets."

I keep imagining TM in full Lady MacBeth mode after that wretched hand-hold, scrubbing her hands desperately and saying "out, out damned spot. All the perfumes of Arabia would not sweeten this little hand..." I may be projecting somewhat, but I feel physically sick every time I see photos of that incident.

It was completely inappropriate

Just place marking because honestly, what can you say? This is terrifying All these poor innocent people having their lives upended by this.

There's a new hashtag.

History - it's why we study it.

Completely inappropriate, I agree.

M0stly & Rufus - I get the rage every time I see a photo of or even think about the hand hold so God knows how TM felt.

Anyway, signing in again. Thanks for these threads even though they make depressing reading. I can't believe it's only been a week.

This.

Glued to the news, god it's only been a week

It's only going to get worse, isn't it?

"Iran has said it will block American citizens from entering the country in “retaliation” for Donald Trump’s ban on travellers from seven majority-Muslim countries coming to the US."

"Tehran’s foreign ministry said in a statement it would enforce its own ban “until the offensive US limitations against Iranian nationals are lifted”".

So when will the first major terrorist incident on US citizens be? It's going to happen - and Trump's reaction will say so much...

ami

I reckon it will be by the end of this coming week

Daesh like fridays dont they

Latvia, when eyes are elsewhere, Putin will get busy.

Still have to pinch myself to believe this is actually happening and it's not just the latest Netflix drama.

Thank you all for the updates and information. I've had to stop watching the news so much with DCs around as they are picking up on my horror at the goings on and DD2 said she had nightmares about Trump last night.

... until married where they have their first kiss a.k.a. The duggars isn't that the family where one son admitted Trumping his sisters?

Just for fun - I've been checking out Nostradamus (www.news.com.au/lifestyle/real-life/news-life/nostradamus-predictions-2017-donald-trumps-tough-year/news-story/22833cb4b1ce7ede71d4d8c1764167c3)

In Century I: 40, Nostradamus writes: “The false trumpet concealing madness will cause Byzantium to change its laws. From Egypt there will go forth a man who wants the edict withdrawn, changing money and standards.”

Some speculate this means Mr Trump (the false trumpet) will go mad and will intervene in Europe’s refugee crisis. [we can only hope]

If that sounds far-fetched consider that Nostradamus did appear to predict Mr Trump’s victory in this year’s US election.

“The great shameless, audacious bawler. He will be elected governor of the army: The boldness of his contention. The bridge broken, the city faint from fear.”

Many believe the “shameless, audacious bawler” refers to Mr Trump while the “governor of the army” refers to America’s military force.

woman - Latvia and Lithuania both to get land access to Kaliningrad, I reckon. And Lithuania has a land border with Poland. It's going to get very very messy, very very fast.

Thats not fun original

it's not just the latest Netflix drama.

I can't think of a fictional president as bad as Trump.

You wouldn't have an incident like the arguments over crowd size on TV. Previously a president that bad/stupid wouldn't have been believable.

I despair, I really do. Sadly, I know some of those applauding.

Yup originalmavis in true trump fashion they believe it is up to the woman to dress modestly as the men can't be held accountable if their loins are stirred and they can't act on them. So they have to wear bare legs and flip flops with knee length skirts because that's more modest than a pair of trousers! Also the same if you dance, if a man ounces on you it's not his fault, he couldn't help it if you wiggles your body.
That's what they entrain in their children's heads, that they can't be trusted not to kiss their fiancé until they are married without a chaperone. Just enforces the whole weirdness and watching them list marriage is so awkward too. Bet they love trump.

gjngerivy that's good to know.

Oh come on Rufus, not even the bit where he goes mad(er)?
