This is getting fucking scary interesting...

Iran tests missile and radar systems, defying U.S. sanctions

Trump and his stupid machismo act will have us all nuked back to the stone age
Might as well have a chimpanzee in charge of the free world

What's scary is that if we end up in a war with Iran over this, Trump supporters will blame Iran, and actually it sits squarely at Trump's doorstep for ramping up the aggression.

Not able to be on the march today, wishing all who are a peaceful day. My banner would be

"Hey Trump, make love not war (but remember to get permission first)"

Great moment on BBC news yesterday (day before?) in the afternoon. After reporting the Arnie/Apprentice story, cut back to the presenter (Simon). He was slouched on the desk, and just looked up into camera saying "That was the President of the United States" in a slightly despairing voice.

Just occurred to me this morning that the Daily Mail and The Wright Stuff don't appear to be nicking stuff from this thread? I suppose that wouldn't sit right with their view of the nest of vipers only discussing breast feeding or wedding invites.

Formerpig Can I be one of the first to back the chimpanzee's nomination to run ?

TheClaws · 04/02/2017 11:12

Angry Spice, despite an international spat, cannot get the name of the Australian Prime Minister correct. "Trumble" instead of "Turnbull", numerous times. So disrespectful. Have Trump's press people had the intelligence sucked out of them, if it ever existed at all?

GingerIvy · 04/02/2017 11:16

Claws Perhaps we have it wrong and he is saying Mr Tumble is the PM of Australia. Who knew? He is very well known. Grin

nicenewdusters · 04/02/2017 11:17

I guess when you have no interest in and very limited knowledge of people it's hard to remember they even have a name.

Hope you have a good day bigly!

Trump " Had a long conversation with Mr Tumble. You know he's great, really great. He does sign language, sings, wears great bow ties. The way he is with kids, jeez, he's making children's TV great again. Can I nominate him to stay in his post? No? Yes? Well, whatever, Mr Tumble your job's really safe, really really safe?"

lionheart · 04/02/2017 11:21

Well done, Bigly.

nicenewdusters · 04/02/2017 11:22

Good on you Bigly .

GingerIvy · 04/02/2017 11:23

dusters Grin And Mr Tumble is used to dealing with children, so probably could deal with Trump.

GingerIvy · 04/02/2017 11:24

Hooray Bigly!! Have a good time!

GingerIvy · 04/02/2017 11:26

All airlines now flying Iranians to the US, following court order against Trump ban. Window might close in some days. Airline rep: "Go now."

Trump - how not to win friends and influence people

MsHooliesCardigan · 04/02/2017 11:46

Well done Bigly and kitten. I feel a bit ashamed about not being there as it would only take me 30 minutes to get there. My excuse is that DS2 has a vv important football match. I will definitely be at the next one come hell or high water- I've a feeling there are many more to come.

SoEverybodyDance · 04/02/2017 11:46

Bigly and Badkitten... good on you both. Have a great time. Let us know what happens please.
