The Donald Trump thread

[CardiffIrish2]

Because out of all the things Trump said, the poster decided to zoom in on that one thing, just like the MSM did. So basically it's a regurgitation of a fault finding exercise, as opposed to a critical analysis.

There's obviously an ironic twist to your message that I should point out. If mine in your opinion was a regurgitation of a fault finding excercise then yours can be construed as a blatant piece of pro trump propaganda.

Personally I don't think it's healthy that the president of the USA should be using phrases like totally destroy in front of the UN. It makes him sound a prick and its not very reassuring to the poor punters in South Korea is it?

I'm not pro Trump, but I did watch the whole speech in which there were much bigger themes than Trump "destroying" North Korea.

It plays well to his voter base though and he's on been on campaign rally mode since he realised that being a president wasn't as much fun as trying to be the president. That was maybe two months in.

The worrying part comes when his approval is so low that words and tweets are not enough and he has to press the red button to show how big his balls/hands are. It seems that when it comes to the nuclear code, no one can stop the president if that's what he wants.

tbf the deliberate headline grabbing rhetoric and childish name-calling on N Korea (for that is what it was) did have the effect of making the threats to Iran, Venezuela and Cuba (all sovereign states where sovereignty should be embraced according to Trump) look almost statesmanlike. Apparently though Saudi Arabia, who play a similar role in shattering the sovereignty of Yemen as that of Iran escaped a yellow card. Much like Las Vegas boxing judges Trump has his favourites when it comes to looking at geo-political sins.

As someone said this was a speech made in the US for domestic consumption. Radical Islamic terrorism is back in the lexicon, presumably because Breitbart complained that that nasty globalist McMaster had been tippexing it out as soon as Bannon and Gorka put their possessions in cardboard boxes and were escorted from the premises.

How the UK and in particular Liam Fox squares its ambition for a free trade deal with the US against this America First and no one-sided deal stance shown here is probably left for another day. Perhaps our negotiating position will be so weak that a trade deal that puts America first is the only thing we are able to agree!

You are on the ball today for a change there are certainly some contradictions going on there.

You throw enough darts and you are bound to hit treble twenty some time - even on a five dimensional board!

Actually I believe there is a war going on in the US between the elites, and even though he is independently wealthy, Trump is the man out front as the main figurehead. The real story is the Globalists v the anti-Globalists, with some big players behind the scenes on both sides.
