The above was reported by numerous people to twitter, by the way.

Oh My.

GingerIvy · 29/05/2017 21:11

Terrifying, isn't it? I can't even begin to imagine the hatred and bile some people have coursing around in their hearts.

Oh, now this IS interesting...

I hope that people are giving thought to the Aftermath? It's likely to stay ugly if it starts to get ugly.

Ho Hum.

I know it's several pages back but the short piece of footage where Scrotus stands up and walks away from Netanyahu is genuinely chilling. There is something seriously seriously wrong - that is not exhaustion.

On a lighter note, I think Trudeau and Macron make a very attractive couple and they clearly hit it off a treat. For some reason, I get slightly hot & bothered thinking about them chatting together in French Blush

cozietoesie · 29/05/2017 23:47

Which makes the probity of his advisors critical.

GingerIvy · 29/05/2017 23:51

This video of Trump is just bizarre.

Jared and Ivanka's apartment is packed with expensive artwork: report www.newsweek.com/ivanka-trump-jared-kushner-art-615692 … My bet is some are prints.

He does look unhinged during the anthem. In particular considering the type of ceremony.
Weird.

AcrossthePond55 · 30/05/2017 00:24

Jeez, he looked like a bad audition of America's got Talent.

I reckon it's because he's so proud because he could remember the words.......Nah, Ivanka was probably feeding them to him through an ear mic.

WHY would u deliberately not tweet this from your personal account with almost TWICE as many followers? Honestly. WHY?? Hard to not question

@POTUS

The violent attacks in Portland on Friday are unacceptable. The victims were standing up to hate and intolerance. Our prayers are w/ them.

cozietoesie · 30/05/2017 00:53

I doubt it was tweeted by him. The POTUS account items are probably written and controlled by staffers.

lionheart · 30/05/2017 01:45

Yes, but it also shows how everything he is doing now is designed to appeal, on the face if it, to his followers (anti-Nato speech and so on). That's why the tweet did not go out under his other account?

He wants to have his cake and eat it.

I think is is a good sign--the cracks are beginning to show.

cozietoesie · 30/05/2017 02:07

I reckon you might be surprised by the actual make-up of those 'followers'. My own belief is that most of his 'heartland' voters would have signed up to both. The difference in figures might well be 'others' who just want to see what the .........personal account comes out with next. Wink

lionheart · 30/05/2017 02:13

Interesting that this one pulls him in two directions because of the veteran dimension.

saffronwblue · 30/05/2017 02:15

He is not great with ambiguity.
