Donations made by NFL owners either to Trumps campaign or his inaugration committee. Makes him look a bit hypocritical in his attacks on them since don't you think?
It would interesting to view Clintons list of donors in comparison.Quote:

But you're definitely not a Trump supporter?Quote:

He's quoted as saying at Mar a Lago - you've all just gotten considerably richer - when the tax plan was signed off.
thanks for saving me the trouble of pointing this out.Quote:

thats an interesting answer (genuinely, although I have no idea of the veracity). No talk of Russian connections or finances etc addresses the sexual harassment allegations.Quote:

you are trolling imo, knowing that trump is an emotive subject.
:agree:Quote:

I do feel there is an element in trolling the pro trump line on this thread. On a positive note North and South Korea have had a successful meeting and intend to move forward with more. No this is not a result of Trump but despite him.
South Korea deciding that dealing with a delusional, tantrum throwing, propaganda spouting man-child with nuclear weapons actually isnt that bad after a year of Trump being president.Quote:

I Actually find the steps that both North and South Korea have taken to be quite hopeful and positive in a world where negative news seems to have ruled the way for some time.
It's possible that China is actually playing some ball here for once. It is after all China that ensures the NK regime continues so any softening of the NK stance will be through their bidding.Quote:

"Why are we having all these people from s**thole countries come here?"
Not at all a racist...

He's right, those places are ****holes.

The world would probably be a better place if America had built a wall a long time ago and kept its intervention within its confines.
:agree: Will definitely resonate with his home team.Quote:

"The language used by me at the DACA meeting was tough, but this was not the language used. What was really tough was the outlandish proposal made - a big setback for DACA!"
Trump responds by tweet. Can anyone work out what that sentence is supposed to mean? Is he ok?
Calling a country a 'shthole' is rude or insulting, not racist.
I don't think they'll stop accepting aid on the back of this.
Add in his comments about wanting more immigrants from places like Norway and it most certainly is racist.Quote:

If you're from "somewhere like Norway" you don't even entertain a move in that direction.
If he wants the USA to start attracting decent people from decent countries again, then he should resign immediately.
This from the president of a country who's own poorest in society were left to fend for themselves for a week in the New Orleans Superdome during and after hurricane Katrina.
Maybe 'countryist'Quote:

I agree with the sentiments of your post, but that line is a bit unfortunate.Quote:

Yep, my comment was crass, offensive, poorly thought out, plainly wrong and not representative of what I really believe.Quote:

My point should have read - given the idiot that is in charge, America should be grateful that decent people from any country should wish to emigrate there, and if they are wanting the best people from the best counties to wish to live there (as they have in the past) then they are going to have to drastically change the way they do things.
