I've just noticed you are Home Team. That's a big relief, I'd have been really worried if there were 2 of you.Quote:

I’ve just realised I will miss Trump when he’s gone. I’ve started to get disappointed when I check the news and he hasn’t just said The World Is Made of Marmite or he’s having a threesome with Kim Jong Eun and Carmen Electra or whatever. He’s just damn good tv.
Unfortunately, you’re going to have at least another four years to wean yourself from your Trump binge.Quote:

It’s become a sort of daily game and I think a lot of folk will be numbed into forgetting the seriousness of his insanity. The crazier he becomes, the more the overhyped and frenzied the biting back of his critics becomes. Like you, I enjoy the theatre of it all but the downside is that he will probably escape through the net and live to tell the tale for another term of office.
It will probably be hilarious to look back on with hindsight, but I’m still wary that the human race could only be an idiotic tweet or lunatic action away from being in serious peril.Quote:

I’ve just taken delivery of John Niven’s “The F*** it List” which promises to be entertaining.

His age is only one part of it, but is that really the best they can come up with?

The problem with the Democratic Party, so frequently, is they don’t match the Republicans in finding a candidate who can win the primaries but also win the general. They can find someone who the party loves,but isn’t going to win the swing states. Or they have somebody who can win the swing states but doesn’t get enough delgates in the primaries. When they do get it right, as with Clinton and Obama then a two-term president is in the bag.Quote:

I guess it's difficult finding a candidate that is willing to stump up $768 million for the privilege to run as candidate like Hilary did in 2016.Quote:

No that would just make him a slavering arse. He is actually the Stalin of American politics. He believes everything he says is right on any subject and there are consequences for anyone who disagrees. I would be very worried if I was an American. Their constitution will get ripped up by this man over the next few years if he gets in again. He will badge it as protecting against those who push fake news but it will really be about silencing opposition. I actually wouldn't out it past him to try to change the two terms in office deal to hold onto power.Quote:

Things are starting to get out of hand for Trump IMO. I can’t see him winning re-election as it stands.
He'll stroll it.Quote:
