Re: Trump State Visit

It's a straightforward state visit, nothing more. It happens all the time doesn't it, whoever it is?

I don't see the connection to the Clinton affair though.

Re: Trump State Visit

For the Trump haters on the band wagon, you should read this, give your head a wobble and be reassured you were just in the mass hysteria bubble.

Re: Trump State Visit

I have just read the link about mass hysteria bubbles and broadly I agree. I do not think I am in a mass hysteria bubble regarding Trump. However, IMO he is a slimy toad and is not a good ambassador for his country. I didn't like him before he became president and I haven't warmed to him now he is president. My feelings have nothing to do with whether he is a racist or not - I don't know. I simply see the crass and aggressive things he says on occasions and think a president of the USA should be a different sort of personality to Trump. I have this feeling that he is the sort of person that politically biased extremists will follow and some of them could well be racist. Just how I feel about him.

Trump is not a politician - never was and he will never change.

He is what he is.

As I see it, the USA were fed up with politicians who talk the talk and deliver nothing. Obama was a classic example - great talker but delivered nothing except the appalling ObamaCare that made healthcare almost impossible for the poor, and he dropped the most bombs on people.

Clinton was even worse - sex pest, rape claims in the 80s, dodgy dealings, matrimonial affairs and lies all caught on camera for the world to see. Most of that was when he was in office as well..... go figure

So along came someone totally unlike anyone that had been president before ... the alternative would be to,vote for Hilary Clinton (status quo) who had an agenda based on past histories and wild rhetoric and political bullshit that people had heard over and over and over again.

So they went for change - simple as that. They are fed up of career politicians.

As far as Trump is concerned, the Mueller report concluded that there was "some obstruction" but "no collusion" with his campaign regarding Russia. Those accusations should be turned around and pointed directly at Hilary Clinton and the FBI. That missing email server is missing for a reason and somewhere it will be found and we will see who the real culprit is. I'll put money on Clinton banged to rights with the Russians and she was so confident she would win, she bribed the FBI to give her information on Trump to help her campaign. After all she would win hands down ... and who would find out ? Trump would never win, right ?

Wrong !

Whatever Trump did in the past when he was not in office is irrelevant. As the saying goes, "let he without sin cast the first stone" etc etc - but look at what he has achieved while being in office, just bear in mind LA, California, New York ... they are all lefty states full of snowflake hippies and lovies (where most of the hollywood wealthy celebrity snowflake bullshit comes from). Go to Texas and ask people there, or Virginia and the mid-west etc.

I'm sure he will get a second term and then we will see another Dynasty in the making with maybe Ivanka Trump as the first female USA President or Don Jr.

The same change is happening here - look how popular the Brexit Party is becoming. Its because its totally different to any other party - politicians from industry, from organisations and business, straight talking and not afraid of words. We will get the same here as America did with Trump, just you watch.

All the left are doing in the USA is trying to out-crazy each other - Warren, AOC, Sanders (millionaire socialist Sanders ha ha) etc.

Seems that people think the most important bit aspect of choosing a leader is the one that least hurts their feelings, not what they do for your country.

Like him or loathe him, he should be here with the full red carpet treatment and the snowflakes should get over themselves.

Re: Trump State Visit

Hi

My view is that Trump is a dangerous idiot.

I do not like the man.

He is however POTUS and should be treated as such.

We have had far worse here on State Visits.

He should be treated with the respect that his position deserves.

I would not invite him to a barbecue, but then I would invite Theresa May or Corbyn.

I think that the pair of them are bigger prats than he is.
