I think the state visit us pretty inevitable now.

The only question is whether it will be mildly embarrassing or a complete disaster.

pinboard · 20/02/2017 18:23

Nevertheless why would it be scary? I think it would be great! Grin

OhYouBadBadKitten · 20/02/2017 18:24

Oh that's easier. Other thread taking ages to load

To start off the new thread, and picking up on the mansplaining comment at the end of the last one:

Trumpsplain
The attempt to defend and clarify what is irretrievably incoherent and indefensible.

Urban dictionary.

Not sure I agree. I'd go:

"When you mention non existent events or data to justify your position, in a sufficiently muddled way that people can't really say it wasn't as you said it was."

What's your definition?

BiglyBadgers · 20/02/2017 18:25

I think Fox news would implode of it ever came on mumsnet. Can you imagine how they would cope with all these women talking and knowing things and swearing. THE HORROR!!!! Grin

It will be interesting to observe the run up to the State disaster Visit, especially if Trump continues to be as gaffe prone as he currently is, and he is in a league of his own there.

He and Theresa the Appeaser make quite a pair. I wonder if she has any misgivings about the invitation now, having seen seen more of him in action. It was issued in haste. Is she repenting at leisure?

PlectrumElectrum · 20/02/2017 18:30

Carol Monaghan's comment in response to Leigh's comments was excellent Grin

There's a full "Last Week Tonight" episode from John Oliver yesterday on YouTube, worth a watch (although the version I saw had slightly tinny sound).

He makes you realise just how appalling Trump's approach to Russia really is so far.

Lweji · 20/02/2017 18:34

Imagine if we were all "bleeding" too. They'd all have a fit, particularly, SCROTUS, if he was watching.

Anyway, other interesting new words:

trumpflakes
Trumpflakes are people that blindly defend Donald Trump, no matter insane or bat-shit crazy the case may be. They are basically flakes that defend Donald Trump by calling everyone 'snowflakes'.

DeVos'd it
When you completely blow a job interview and still wind up getting the job.

Flynncinerate
To torch a good job by accidentally engaging in treasonous acts.

Trumpshake
When a handshake between two persons goes past the extra time—it can last up to twenty-odd seconds.

Spicer
An outrageous lie.

POTUS
Piece Of Totally Useless Shit

trumpian
adj: describes an action or person that is motivated by arrogance, self-agrandizement, and without concern for fact, consequence or responsibilty.

Trumponomics
An economic system where corporations and billionaires get huge tax breaks and refunds the rest of us get chump change.

Trump may have known the best words, but he needs to learn more.
