'The Swamp Hotel' comes perilously close to the 'other' description of Mar a Lago as the 'swampside hotel'. I guess that not too many people read the DPRK Twitter feed though. Wink

This one is real for next week, but not much better for Trump.

Is justice Comey for Trump?

Well, I'm going to pretend it's real because it makes me happy to do so. After all, If I'm going to have 'fake news' I'm going to at least enjoy it. Wink

Well bugger, the Far Right Party in Finland has just become even Farther Right with their new leader and they're already part of the Government so a little bit concerning.

I really hope Trump is cancelling his UK visit because he's a precious snowflake that can't bear to be boo'ed Grin

Funny and interesting opinion on Comey V Trump.

At least one that Trump won't understand half of, due to the choice of vocabulary.

but give them Time

Ba dum tush!

CaveMum · 11/06/2017 20:29

Natsku, it may not be the booing he's afraid of, but the arses!

cozietoesie · 11/06/2017 20:38

Two very interesting pieces, lion. Thank you.

Lweji · 11/06/2017 20:39

At this point he's probably just afraid of being out of the country.

Do we have an extradition deal with the US?

If it came to it would they want their President back?

After we gave them Piers, Nigel, Milo and Sebastian they would be perfectly justified to say we could keep him.

But wouldn't it be funny if he ended up having to claim asylum in a particular London embassy?

At this point I am going to follow the lead established by Across and imagine my fantasy story arc will be fulfilled, 'because it makes me happy to do so.'

Trump, who attacked Clinton as not having the stamina to be president, was reportedly exhausted by his overseas trip nyti.ms/2sc7ful

Interested to see Trump employ yet another character who can't seem to get the very basics right.

Don't remember where I heard this quote but; "I hereby reject your reality and substitute my own".

If it works for Scrotus and his ilk, it'll work for me (at least on a nice Sunday afternoon)

lionheart · 11/06/2017 21:59

With @realDonaldTrump saying he wants to testify under oath and @SenSchumer inviting him to testify to Congress, time for me to retell...(1)

...the tale of when Trump demonstrably perjured himself before Congress. A small bit of story, w/o docs, is here: www.newsweek.com/2016/08/12/donald-trumps-business-failures-election-2016-486091.html

Holy Fuck. This is a frightening view of Trump again. From years ago. He's not changed at all, really.

That old Newsweek piece is grim, Ginger.

I guess that any FBI investigation into 'campaigning' etc would be able to require production of 45's relevant financial records ? Smile
