My eyes & ears are on high alert.

Thanks for the new thread.

Interesting BBC article here entitled "The photo that highlights the White House turmoil". Taken at the start of Trump's Presidency, of the 7 men in the photo, only 2 are still in their jobs - Trump and Pence.

skyzumarubble · 18/08/2017 23:52

I'm hiding cos I'm scared.

DancingLedge · 18/08/2017 23:52

Delurking to respect new title.

badbadhusky · 18/08/2017 23:53

Yay! New peeps. Smile

Belindaboom · 18/08/2017 23:53

I haven't followed these threads, am I allowed to post?

I'm terrified about where this is all going. That this man is in charge of so much is scary, worrying and there's nothing we can do about it.

ComingUpTrumps · 18/08/2017 23:54

Sorry didn't realise this was a continuation of the Trump threads Blush (also my surname is in no way an endorsement of him by the way!)

Just wanted to show my support as well for Heather Heyer - she sounded absolutely amazing.

PerkingFaintly · 18/08/2017 23:55

For anyone who missed it, the thread title is the last Facebook post of Heather Heyer, who was killed in an attack at Charlottesville, Virginia by a man who appears to have been a white supremacist.

badbadhusky · 18/08/2017 23:56

Stick around Trumps. We are ^resisting% the MN way.

badbadhusky · 18/08/2017 23:56

Oh FFS. Messy formatting a-go-go...

lionheart · 18/08/2017 23:58

Hello to new peeps.

I'm also astounded by the dignity shown by Heather Heyer's parents. Sad

Yes, we probably should have had "Trump threads cont" at the end of the title, so people can find the thread.

lionheart, what do you think? It's your thread, so do you fancy reporting your first post to MNHQ and asking them to rename?

Jedimum1 · 19/08/2017 00:04

I'm very concerned. At times scared. Incredibly outraged by this crazy puppet. The only thing he could do right was to resign. Not keen of his daughter either. Or Son-IL. I'm in continuous shock everything he barks. It astonishes me that "the secret group behind every POTUS" is allowing him to continue... All I can think of is that this group is benefiting from rates exchanges and the value of money in different countries. Maybe when they've earned enough, they might react. Wine

*username, not surname (sorry!)

This whole week has been bloody awful, really.

badbadhusky · 19/08/2017 00:07

Pull up a chair Trumps & join us with gin.

Lweji · 19/08/2017 00:07

Just paying attention...

lionheart · 19/08/2017 00:09

You're right Perking. Will do.

I'm trying to comfort myself by remembering that the head of the military said he would refuse to carry out an illegal order.
I'm clutching at the thinnest of straws aren't I?
I'm staggered by Heather Heyer's family's response. Remarkable people.
