Watching him is awful. You get hypnotised by all those mannerisms and cannot look away, despite yourself.

Sen. Thom Tillis: "If it's information that can be shared with Russian ambassador, it seems to me it'd be okay to share with the US Senate."

Speeches fascinate me.

I receive the impression that 45 only actually understands what he's saying when he gets to each 'I' or 'As President, I ' - with which the speeches are liberally peppered.

You had the feeling with Obama that he actually knew what he was saying. And as for answering questions from reporters.....................Grin

Does anyone remember 'The President's Brain is missing?' from Spitting Image about Reagan?
I remember the sketch after Gorbachev was elected and his aides were trying to teach Ronnie how to pronounce his name using flash cards - there was a picture of a mouth (gob) then one of a sheep (baa) then one of a chef sticking his tongue out (chef). But Ronnie said 'Mouth Sheep Tongue. Mouthsheeptongue - isn't that the Chinese guy?'
It seems horribly prescient now.

Just heard an analysis on Radio 4. Their source in Congress are saying that Rep. Congressmen are not going to abandon 45 unless his approval ratings dip another 3-4%. The advice is to watch the poll ratings. Once they start to drop you'll see Republicans suddenly leaping from the Trump train- like rats from a sinking ship.

Well, the Emperor Valerian was captured in battle, enslaved, used as a foot-stool, forced to drink molten gold and then skinned and stuffed.
