American politics

And it will only get worse once Trump puts his feet up in the White House - when that happens, most of the Western world will be disgusted. Hell, I'm proud we have Sadiq Khan.

I'm British born, from Hertfordshire. I'm glad you feel so comfortable. I don't, not when these type keep pouring in and building numbers to the point they make up 30% of the population in certain parts of the UK.. Can't endorse your opinion about either Trump or Khan and we'll have to agree to disagree. Perhaps when you can go into Islamic countries and build churches and preach Christianity without being killed as easily as they can come into ours and do as they please, with many of them hating us, maybe then I'll change my mind. But don't hold your breath.

I took you to be a US citizen, forgive me.

Can you name these regions with a 30% Muslim population? Outside London, at an educated guess, I would say Bradford and Luton. Birmingham? I'm struggling.

I note you've avoided the issue of easily accessible fire-arms.

Last year I visited Albania, a Muslim majority country. There are over 1100 churches in the country but fewer than 700 mosques. They have little to no problem coexisting.

I see you've posted a picture of Anjem Choudary and co. Whilst I don't doubt their presence in the UK is alarming and their influence extremely dangerous, it's the same few faces over and over again.

Go out, speak to real Muslims and see what they have to say. But no doubt your prejudices will get in the way because, let's face it, your dislike for Khan is based almost purely on his faith.

I think the defense when the first woman complained about this behavior was that Bush the 41st does this as a joke.

The defence now, somewhere between Clinton and Kennedy.

HW and Babs have a long way to fall before they're in Bill & Hill territory.

George Washington and Benjamin Franklin were known to be a bit...flirtatious with women, including younger women.

Far cry from raping women in a hotel room, or driving them off a bridge into a river and leaving them to drown.

If you can't grab a tush, you can't lob a bomb.

But seriously, as an American I say we're really in for a lot, lot more of this type of stuff. It feels like a ticking timer is counting down until Trumps naughty antics will blow wide open (at least more than they already have with the "grab 'em" comments taped by another member of the Bush family) and I can't help but wonder how long it will be before someone accuses Bush Jr. and possibly even Obama before all this is over. Heck, I almost expect Jimmy Carter to be the only president to be the upstanding one after the dust settles.

Until he goes (Carter) off to Pyongyang as Trump's Man in Korea.

Cunt has the IQ of a tree-stump. Is it too much to hope that he breaks whichever thumb he tweets with?

Another board with these hateful anti-Trumpers. Do I really need to spend 2018 telling more libtards to go fuck themselves? Many of those who swore he'd be impeached spent the yuletide season sucking the flavour out of their own feet which were firmly implanted in their mouths.

He's closed off 2017 with a higher approval rating and with Americans thinking the economy WILL improve in 2018.

I'd still vote for him if I was over there. Don't listen to the biased media BS. The politicians had years to get things right and they've failed the ordinary working class voter time and again. Trump deserves a chance to prove himself - i.e. a full presidential term.

I feel as if I should quote from a great philosopher:
"Wesa gonna diiiiieeeee in here!"

But that's just me.

We'll see. Time will tell.

I know we're not on the same page when it comes to the Trumpinator BC, but I sincerely hope we can at least disagree civilly :) .

Trump's use of social media posts is understandable given he famously rambles incomprehensibly when he speaks on camera unscripted. And yes, also understandable given the press spends a week criticising him if he scratches his nose the wrong way. Using said platform to criticise the Oscars, Arnold's hosting prowess on The Apprentice, and referring to heads of state as Rocketmen (small or otherwise) only makes him look juvenile however. I'm guessing it's way past Kushner's bedtime for him to counsel Daddy-in-Law on his early morning Tweets.

My button's more bigly than your button. Dear God.

Further proof that what they're engaged in is essentially a dick-measuring contest, albeit one backed up with terrifying destructive power.

Not for the first time. You might recall that in one of the Republican primary debates he hit back at Marco Rubio's joke about his small hands, by saying he had "no problems down there buhlieve me."

Has he done anything about angry, gun-toting, NRA-appeasing maniacs yet? All this paranoia surrounding North Korea and Muslims when the biggest threat to Americans is Americans.

Like this from the Bannon story:

"Now that he is on his own, Steve is learning that winning isn't as easy as I make it look."

It's probably the size of his hands that make the button seem big. And everything else.

They even sell Trump's Small Hand Soap in Waterstones and no doubt other stores across the land:





This is what American politics has been reduced to...if you're a Republican candidate or president. You have to come to expect it, in fact.
