YANBU - he’s an absolute knob. The state the USA is in right now and he’s trying to lecture the rest of the world!

YABU - he’s not a twat.

He has said what is on the average working man and women's mind, mass immigration is being overlooked by the governments all over Europe.

Whenever I hear Trump speak I am reminded of that episode in the US office where Stanley finally loses his shit with Michael Scott.

“You are out of your damn little pea-sized mind. What is wrong with you? Do you have any sense at all? Everyday you do something stupider than you did the day before, and I think ‘there’s no possible way he can top that’. But what do you do?! You find a way dammit to top it! You are a professional idiot!”

Unfortunately for the rest of the world, this particular professional idiot is the POTUS.

Get NATO to pay attention, oh indeed. Pay attention to the fact that a once powerful
ally is now potentially as much of a threat as the ‘enemies’ they were supposed to be worrying about.
I would LOVE to know what Putin has on Trump.

@itsAforapple
I said exactly that last week on a Trump State Visit thread. Other posters were calling it an outstanding success for the Royal Family and how it showed the importance of 'soft power'. Load of shite.

I think vaccines dropping will be down to how poorly managed covid vaccines went. Most people didn't think twice about giving thier kids vaccines before covid.

I agree that one isn't Trump's fault. Well before Covid, the take-up of vaccination for children in this country had already fallen to the level at which measles was on the rise, where just before 2000 it had been almost eradicated. That was not caused by Big Pharma: it was the work of a liar with a financial incentive. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Andrew_Wakefield

Joe Biden withdrew hastily from Afghanistan

without any option about the fact or the timing, because of a treaty Trump had signed, and Trump having rendered the US position there untenable. That one is definitely down to Trump entirely. (And now, gawdelpus, Trump wants to have Bagram back in spite of having signed it away – or rather he wants it "given back to the people who built it", the USSR. He's astoundingly ignorant.)

When Trump says “There is Sharia Law in London”, I think he means “There are muslims in London”.

I think Trump remains apoplectic that what he views as a white homeland has dated to have a muslim mayor of its capital city.

When you consider that a number of US cities are crime ridden hellholes his obsession with London makes no sense unless for the reasons stated.

It’s getting to the point where he might just be the biggest threat to the safety of the rest of the world, not Russia or China or anyone else

I agree with this statement 100%

Overlooked? Is it fuck. You don’t think that every western nation has been struggling with this for years? Is WELL aware of the issues?

The issue is we can’t trust our own governments. He ran his entire campaign on the government is corrupt but you can trust them.

So right now I’ve no idea whether or not paracetamol causes autism because I don’t trust the government or the corporations. It’s possible paracetamol could influence the development of autism. It’s not like we can trust the researchers to tell the truth.

Johnson & Johnson knowingly sold asbestos riddled talcum powder for years then hid the report and continued selling their product for years even though there was a viable product replacement (cornstarch).

I took a lot of paracetamol during pregnancy and my child is severely autistic.

🤣🤣

Dear God.

Theres a bit of me that thinks a really crazy, unstable, unpredictable lunatic running the US just might be the antidote required for the Communist threat that Russia, China and N Korea have created. Maybe at this difficult time he is just crazy enough to make other lunatics step back a bit.

I used to think that something would come out about Trump that would wake up the americans. Now I think there could be pictures of his have his way with a goat and his supporters would say "That's what I like about him. He keeps it real!"

He makes me cringe and I really don't like him but I totally agree with his views on the state of our country.

That we have Sharia law in London?
Don't be silly.

‘Putin has nothing on Trump.’ righty ho🤣🤣🤣😆😆😜 that’s definitely true.

Putin does not care about Trump. He doesn't need to.

Hard to see how anyone with more than one braincell would disagree with you, OP.

I’ve just left the US. California. And I can tell you that 80% of the people around me thought he was a massive dick.

I’ve noticed that rhetoric in the UK about ‘you can’t believe what you read in the UK media about Trump, all Americans are happy with him… It’s repetitive and definitely seems to come from the people who are doing ‘their own research’ and I can guess pretty much 99% of the rest of the canned bollocks they’re coming out with.

You don’t need to believe what you read in the UK media, you can just listen to the shit that comes out of his mouth to get everything you need to know.

And you need to be extremely naïve to not think that what he’s doing doesn’t impact the whole world.

Edited

You have just left California….of course they all hate him. Its very liberal and leftie in california! Its like londeners love Labour and two tier keir.

So did I. Mine aren’t.

I drank a whole bottle of Beechams 3 in 1 whilst pregnant and a pack of Lemsip. Then read the packets and had a fricken heart attack that I didn’t realise all the decongestants were dangerous. Hated myself for months and luckily my child is neurotypical.
