So? What’s he going to tell the world?

Best guesses below unless you’re in the know.

He doesn't look so well to me. Tired. Haggard.

Well, the schools and universities have only just gone back. He's probably tired from making a packed lunch for the youngest this morning.

he is coming to England to paint a roundabout

RememberBeKindWithKaren · 02/09/2025 21:14

He's read a whole book. All by himself and he learned some new words .Big words. Big, beautiful words.

PardonMeNot · 02/09/2025 21:23

The only announcement I’m interested in hearing won’t be made by him.

That made me laugh !
A big beautiful mini roundabout

NautilusLionfish · 02/09/2025 21:27

He wants to acknowledge that he is the biggest idiot and has messed up the world bigly. For once he will use few words like " am a smegma crusted dickhead and an idiot one at that"

I've heard it's been pushed back to 3 Washington time, which is 8 o'clock our time.

Nah he would’ve clashed with GBBO, that would’ve been an epic fail!

I had to go out immediately after my original post and haven’t had time to read all the replies yet. However, I knew you wouldn’t let me down and I have seen some great answers so far 😂

Off to bed to read properly, thank you!

Maybe he wanted to announce how much he loves flags.

Nooooo we don't want him as a permanent resident in Scotland.

I'm not ignorant. I'm asking for people to think about what they're told versus the reality and come to a potentially different understanding.

For example, people genuinely believe that the royal family has no power in politics because of a 'decree' stating so despite all evidence to the contrary.

That aside, watching the president of another country like it's some kind of sport is so strange to me. I can't understand if we do it because we're jealous, we want them to fail, we wish we could be more like them, we are bored and need hobbies or what.

Educate me but do it respectfully. If you can't, move on.

@FluffyWabbit
It is not ANY COUNTRY. We are talking about the president of the most powerful country in the world. What he does or doesn‘t do, will affect people all over the world to some extend. Look at the “lovely big tariffs” and the response of the stock markets all over the world when he introduced them. Long term they will affect all the countries which rely on exports to US.
Ditto war in Ukraine. How US president handles this, will have huge consequences for everyone. Things have got much worse since he cancelled Biden’s support. Without US Ukraine cannot survive long term as Europe doesn’t have enough resources.
NATO will also crumble without US.
No big issue can be resolved if US president decides to sabotage the efforts to do so.

So I am puzzled that you don’t understand why people are nervously watching what the unstable US president is going to pull off next.

The world does not need to know the daily ins and outs of Slovakian/Polish/Portuguese/Vietnamese politics but we really need to keep up with the orange one in the White House.

PardonMeNot · 02/09/2025 22:30

As expected, the announcement was much ado about nothing. Lined up with his brown-nosing cronies in the oval office, putting on an embarrassing display of self congratulations. 🤮🤮🤮

CyanMaker · 02/09/2025 22:40

He and Putin are going to share the Peace Prize and despite it being impossible to accomplish, will have his orange head on Mount Rushmore.

JR Ewing was his real father.

He’s furious about the big party in China that Xi threw for Putin & Modi & Kim Jong Un and all the others that made a fool of him.

Of course Donald has to act out.

As an American, I guarantee you it’ll be nothing.
Because it’s always nothing.

All the really bad stuff he does in the dark - like trying to fly those little immigrant children out of the country under the cover of darkness - until they were caught, this past weekend.

Centuries. It’ll take centuries. I despair.

It'd be nice if England focussed on its own circus. Is this possible, England?

I dunno. I'm Australian.

Last time he tried to colour in the US flag with some kids he got it wrong. Maybe he’ll have more luck with a simple red cross on a roundabout.
