Very moving, I thought, Roussette. And also a bit of a bitch slap to Trump, perhaps?

Roussette · 05/12/2018 17:43

Yes it was moving. And funny. And every eulogy given was a slap in the face to Trump as he is none of the qualities spoken about.

Why oh why did he have to sit there with his arms folded... so disrespectful at a funeral.

So agree with you Across

MerdedeBrexit · 05/12/2018 17:55

You're right, Across. Wonder if Trump understood what was going on? He's not even pretending to try to say the Lord's Prayer, or even read the words. Such an embarrassment for the US.

Trump’s arrival at the funeral #awkward

Unlike your arrival on thread, CaveMum.Grin #welcomeback

Hope you and CaveBoy are keeping well.

CaveMum · 05/12/2018 18:34

Thanks Perking, I lurk when I can but life is manic right now!

I don't think Dubya wanted to approach Trump, just had to get past to give some sweets to Michelle.

btw, apols if thick, but why is this thread under AIBU?

cozietoesie · 05/12/2018 18:47

I imagine it is. 😀

Nice to see you back, anyway.

cozietoesie · 05/12/2018 18:49

It's where the very first thread went, Grace. Since then...............

PerkingFaintly · 05/12/2018 18:55

The first one started in AIBU, Grace, with a suitably AIBU-ish title.

They just continued from there, and at least are all in the same place. Probably would have gone under Chat, if Chat threads had been permanent as they've just changed to being.

Grace212 · 05/12/2018 18:57

oh I see....don't tell me, it was "AIBU to think Dump is not a real candidate?"

'tis what I thought initially.

Lweji · 05/12/2018 19:26

The first actual threads were by claig, so it would have been something in support of Trump. Oh, the irony.

MerdedeBrexit · 05/12/2018 19:30

Was claig a real person?

cozietoesie · 05/12/2018 19:34

These days, Who Can Tell? 😀

In Trumpland, this makes him a perfectly qualified candidate:

North Korea not just possessing previously undisclosed missile sites, they’re apparently upgrading them.

Oh, dear, in my bleary-eyed not had my coffee yet morning fug, I missed the "Jr" in your post about Judge Napolitano, PainInTheEar, and got all excited until I read the article Grin
