I am aghast

To paraphrase Will Shakespeare:

Hell is empty. All the devils are here in Trump.

orlantina · 30/09/2017 13:35

He seems to be really touchy on this. Criticism is his Achille's Heel and he definitely rises to the bait.

BiglyBadgers · 30/09/2017 13:48

I thought I had lost you. I had to brave the treacherous depths of AIBU to find the thread. It was scary. Shock

Arsehole comes to mind yet again.
Does he really expect PR workers to drop their families and forget they have to rebuild their own homes. They need help not to work.

OhYouBadBadKitten · 30/09/2017 14:20

Bloody hell. I can't believe him.

cozietoesie · 30/09/2017 14:49

Joy on Price's 'resignation'.

cozietoesie · 30/09/2017 14:51

Sorry. That was Ms Maddow - who's still worth watching. Smile

lionheart · 30/09/2017 15:13

Maddow is alwasy worth watching.

This one, not so much:

US military & first responders saving many lives in PR, but like so many of their acts of heroism, is often a story that doesn’t get told

The Fake News Networks are working overtime in Puerto Rico doing their best to take the spirit away from our soldiers and first R's. Shame!

I will be going to Puerto Rico on Tuesday with Melania. Will hopefully be able to stop at the U.S. Virgin Islands (people working hard).

Fake News CNN and NBC are going out of their way to disparage our great First Responders as a way to "get Trump." Not fair to FR or effort!

cozietoesie · 30/09/2017 15:43

This is one where I don't actually care if he's 'shamed into it' as long as he does something! Sad

orlantina · 30/09/2017 15:59

Fox news on Puerto Rico. I wonder if Trump's seen this.

The presenter asked at the end about the views on the response. I don't think the reporter thinks it's impressive.

orlantina · 30/09/2017 16:02

And more

Damning reports on Fox News.

A "balanced" pannel of conservative moms speak about the NFL protest.

One comments that her child doesn't understant why the players are taking the knee and think that they don't have to stand for the anthem. Well, did she explain to her child why they are doing it? It doesn't look like it.

And funny how the only mother in support of the protest is cut out as soon as the presenter can.

CaveMum · 30/09/2017 16:34

Wotcha Maryz, nice to see you here too!

I'm sill struggling to get my head round his comments on Puerto Rico being "an island surrounded by big water, ocean water" Hmm

My 3yo has a better grasp of the English language!

"Speaking of getting fucked up the ass, Trump unveiled his tax plan..."

Good old Bill Maher.

Lweji · 30/09/2017 17:13

Also,

"New rule: you can't demand that everyone stand for the flag if you've colluded with a foreign government to subvert the very democracy that flag represents."

He has a point.

cozietoesie · 30/09/2017 17:56

"Short Bus". Grin

cozietoesie · 30/09/2017 18:10

Those tweets surprised me, lion. I thought (wrongly, it seems) that I was beyond that as well. Sad

Lweji · 30/09/2017 18:45

Also interesting, and an explanation of how the US feels about Puerto Rico.
Citizens? Nationals? Able to vote?
It sounds a lot like apartheid or racial segregation, perpetuated even by the Obama administration.

lionheart · 30/09/2017 18:50

I know what you mean cozie.

I thought, at the very least, he would be better at faking the Presidency.

He is despicable.
