Re: The Donald Trump thread
I understand his latest press spokesperson has argued that it took place in a much bigger crowd than booed George W Bush! :sherlock:
Then again she did say that former Chief of Staff John Kelly (you know, one of those 4 star generals like Petraeus who were part of the "Storm") was unequipped to deal with Trump's "genius" !

As candidate Trump he said all the right things, how official data was manipulated fakery and stocks were a 'big fat ugly bubble' then the instant he was elected he switched to talking rubbish. That same stock market is a much bigger bubble which he's called 'my stock market' and bragging about 'wonderfully low' inflation and unemployment numbers.

We know the Russians hacked both the Democrats and the Republicans, but they only released dirt on the Democrats ahead of the 2016 election. What would you do with that information if you're Russian? Use it for blackmail?
It would certainly explain the incredible U-turn of people like Lindsay Graham and the complete lack of spine of a lot of the rest.

Re: The Donald Trump thread
Yesterday Trump once again declared via twitter the US economy to be the greatest ever. The day before he called on the Federal Reserve Bank to cut their interest rate not to 0% but to negative. Yesterday that bank cut the interest rate a quarter point to 1.5%. That was its third quarter point cut in successive months and is now further below its official consumer price inflation number of 2%. Real consumer inflation is running at 10% in the US which means that any citizen whose income is not increasing by 10% is becoming poorer in real terms. That will include every pensioner who will or have had a 2% increase in their payment and effectively become 8% poorer along with everyone else there on a fixed income, every government and state employee (including Trump) and in all likelihood virtually every private employee.
This is happening while their stock markets are hitting new all-time highs and their unemployment rate is at an all-time low. But just like their fiddled inflation rate both the markets and the jobless rate are manipulated to the nth degree too. In short, it's an illusion to mask the fact their economy is tanking while their people become poorer at a rate of knots. What they can't hide but do conceal with the aid of a complicit corporate media is the staggering number of homeless Yanks there are as a result.
When what's become known as the everything bubble bursts that's been inflated by injecting more and more debt into the system while artificially suppressing interest rates and publishing wholly fake economic data then there'll be chaos worldwide because all currencies are derivatives of the US dollar. Whether the purchasing power of that currency goes to nil first or last is anyone's guess. That they will crash and burn is baked in. The question which remains is when it'll occur. Most experts seem to believe the bell will toll when Trump gets his wish of a negative interest rate which will be the spring or summer of 2020.

I heard the whistleblower was involved in the putting together of the Steele Dossier that was used to kick-off the Trump Russia Collusion hoax. Big if true :sherlock:

Well, it's an undoubted fact that his name will be known to people long after all other British politicians have been forgotten .
Why do you paraphrase that old saying - is it a bit of political correctness ?

They were calling a bluff that will backfire. Now even more evidence will be made public.

Forget about the theatre; it's yet another manufactured distraction that will rumble on and on to lead to nowhere.
Concentrate on your own financial survival instead. First up, only keep what you can afford to lose in a bank because we're all unsecured creditors for what's kept in them and the very last in line for getting a fraction returned when they blow up.

Re: The Donald Trump thread
Actually, I've had a thought on this. I've been quite shocked on another thread here to see anti semitism expressed with the thinnest of excuses, so I wonder whether some of the irrational hatred we hear toward the Prsident is motivated by this closet anti semitism ?
He's been a friend of Israel and democracy in the region and a great defender of Jews in general, so do they see him as a powerful obstruction to what they'd really like to do ?

I think you have just absolutely proven my point. I haven't seen even a smidgen of anti-Semitism on any thread on this messageboard merely critique. This is exactly the same sort of rubbish the Labour Party is being accused of by people with a political agenda. The whole reason for all this nonsense is to subvert the narrative and prevent any reasonable criticism of Israeli policy towards Palestine.
