And as I love giving you images to haunt your dreams, here’s another one, blasphemously titled ‘Our Lord and Saviour’.

Thanks, lion. Sad

And ‘they’ may have to deal with 45 going in solo to face questioning?

Remind me. Can he plead the 5th?

cozietoesie · 16/10/2017 19:09

Not that he would likely bother even if he can.

Can't the grown-up world leaders just send him to bed without dinner or put him on the naughty step?

Thanks for the thread. I am sort of lurking about in a lurky sort of way. I will just leave this royal placemat over here...

Did he do a 'I won' dance whilst doing a 'L' sign on his forehead? He is so undignified!

Thanks lion, what’s striking is that Juan Williams is a political analyst for Fox!

I was looking up the Panama papers a few months ago because I didn’t really know anything about it (I didn’t get very far so still don’t) but it seems pretty significant in global affairs/putin was heavily implicated.

This can’t be good

A journalist leading the Panama Papers investigation in Malta was killed by a car bomb

Trump on the follow-up: "Pres. Obama I think probably did sometimes and maybe sometimes he didn't. I don't know, that's what I was told."

Obama's chief of staff's response attached.

He wanted to ‘win’ over O. He was fixating on it.

If his staffers can persuade him that he really has ‘won’, they might hope to steer him to something else............

Gasp0de that is truly sickening - such an empty man. The response from Obama’s former Chief of Staff is viscerally perfect.

I know, I keep thinking it can't get worse and then it does.

Thanks for keeping these threads going. I dip in from time to time. I find I have to limit my time on Twitter and other Trump-heavy places or I can feel my blood pressure starting to soar.

lionheart · 16/10/2017 21:11

Hello Gasp.

Gasp0deTheW0nderD0g · 16/10/2017 21:19

Hello, lionheart! Time for me to de-Trump now, I think.

AcrossthePond55 · 16/10/2017 21:42

Gaspt de Trump made me snicker and think of the dictionary. Do you think the entries in the dictionary show:

'de Trop' adj. unwelcome, unnecessary, not wanted

'de Trump' adj. see 'de Trop'

Grin
lionheart · 16/10/2017 21:57

It makes a lot of sense.

THOught it was weird when it happened but am Shock that it’s weird enough that it’s being investigated. That means it’s plausible it could be sinister

🔥🔥BOMBSHELL!!! Investigators are looking into Peter W. Smith, the GOP operative who killed himself.
