They even flashed up a graphic saying nearly a million jobs had been created since he took office, I nearly fell off my chair. Well, law of averages states he'll do something right eventually , like giving NASA encouragement (though he might want to throw some more money at them too, please?) The media should spend much more time reporting just on his policy decisions rather than what he's Tweeting today, TBF.
Saxondale Posted 19 July 2017 Posted 19 July 2017 Does trump not mean guff in America or what? Why doesn't he get ribbed for his name more?

No disagreement there. The antipathy between Trump and areas of the media that aren't Fox News, Breitbart, Drudge Report etc is pretty clear.

You take any criticism of Trump way too personally. If he was a Labour MP you'd be praising them for holding him to account.

Guest FriendlyRam Posted 21 July 2017 Posted 21 July 2017 They are going to have to change the years to months in the "rip" memes Rip spicer February-July Is anyone in trumps admin lasting the run with him? Pence might be the last man standing by November, and that will have taken some doing. How long until sessions gets the boot, and better still how long has mueller got left? Its a circus
Rincewind Posted 21 July 2017 Posted 21 July 2017 My thoughts on Trump summed up in a 4 lined verse There's a mad man in the White House Shouting hip hip hurray I've got my finger on the button God save the USA
bovril Posted 21 July 2017 Posted 21 July 2017 There once was a tosser named Trump Who liked to be kissed on his bump. He promised the voters, If they'd be his promoters, He'd magically fix up their dump.

Guest FriendlyRam Posted 22 July 2017 Posted 22 July 2017 Have you read his tweets today. From about 11-2 hes been tweeting god only knows what, no one has a cluewhat hes on about The best one was he tweeted he had the power to pardon everyone around him... i mean wtf is he on? Even his most hardcore base must be embarrassed by now, the man is a clown and disturbed imo.
Mike Oxlong Posted 22 July 2017 Posted 22 July 2017 There once was a President called Trump Who liked to look at a pretty girl's rump When he then got a hard on He'd give himself a pardon And would wonder why Melania got the hump
leicsmac Posted 22 July 2017 Posted 22 July 2017 TBH though if it really comes to it he'll take the Nixon option - agree to go quietly in return for Pence pardoning him...which he no doubt will despite the backlash.
Jattdogg Posted 22 July 2017 Posted 22 July 2017 Why is he even talking about pardoning? If someone has done wrong then theres an obligation to ensure they are punished accordingly. If his own friends or family have done shady things during the election campaign then they must suffer the consequences of their actions if they were illegal. Put your personal feelings aside. You represent the best interets of ever american not just your family and "business swamp" folk. We need evidence to come out and state yes there was collusion or no there wasnt. Until then its all speculation. Getting tired of this. Either trump is in or he is out.

Well trump has said it's to do with medical costs and disruptions. But I thought there was only a few thousand transgenders who actually served, can't say I've ever looked into it but I assume the medical costs of so few are tiny compared to their military budget. And as for disruptions if you have men and women serving already what harm could it do? Weird one for sure. Would be interested to hear exactly what the "generals" said to him tbh.
