    Not surprised you have quoted her latest attack on opponents of Trump. I do agree with her when she says 'Trump is a man who plays the political game by completely different rules' - but apart from that it is the usual bile.
    They are all playing political games, and open borders is the biggest game of the lot.

    Phillips was right about the pot though, they fell for that one hook, line & sinker.

        Trying to see both sides of the argument, it may be that there are some fair points made as far as American domestic politics is concerned in that article, but, although I disagree with his politics profoundly, it's Trump the man that has always been the main reason why I'm so anti him. He is not fit for Office on personality grounds and, whether he is playing "clever" political games or not, I feel it is both disgraceful and dangerous for an American President to talk like he has done in the past few days.

          The 2nd American civil war is already underway, it just hasn't turned hot yet. The two fictional realities are diametrically opposed, and there is no common ground. It's either borders or no borders, sovereignty or a world government.

            A battle which has been fought and pretty much lost here already, although the division over Brexit combined with the thwarting of a democratic outcome might possibly re ignite it. Again, there's a risk of it " turning hot" as you put it, because generally and historically when peoples votes are over ruled , that happens .

            There's much more risk of a shooting war in the United States of course because the founding fathers foresaw a day when political forces might impose their will over the will of the people and ensured that they'd have the ability to defend the constitution.

              Strange this didn't get a mention on here last night given how keen some have been to post on this thread over the past few years.

                Easy win for Trump in 2020, the American public are not going to vote for a party who have socialist anti-Semitic and pro-al Qaeda members in their ranks.

                  You are doing a fine job of promoting and repeating your boy Trump's regular lies and distortions.

                  Facts First: Omar has not praised al Qaeda or said she can hold her “chest out” when thinking of al Qaeda. Trump was inaccurately describing remarks she made in 2013 about how one of her college professors acted when he discussed al Qaeda.


                  It looks as if he may have lost the 'Chaldeans For Trump' votes though. Betrayed by Trump? Who would have thought it?

                  Trump administration wants to deport more than 1,400 Iraqi nationals, most of who are Chaldean – Iraqi Catholics who saw Trump as a ‘savior’ but now feel ‘betrayed’

                    I wonder why trump went nuclear with the racist attack on members of Congress? Is there anything going on that might be damaging?

                        NBC found archived video of Donald Trump and Jeffrey Epstein partying at Mar-a-Lago with a room full of women. Lordy, there are tapes.
                        Wow, he's been caught enjoying a bit a nightlife in the company of beautiful women. That proves he is guilty, lock him up and throw away the key!

                            I’m not saying you’re predictable Wales Bales but to quote a line from the Young ones ‘I’m not saying you’re predictable but there are as yet undiscovered tribes in the heart of South America who knew you were going to say that ‘ 😂

                              In the wake of Epstein’s arrest, Trump was quizzed about his relationship with Epstein. Trump told reporters he “knew [Epstein], like everybody in Palm Beach knew him”. But Trump added: “I had a falling out with him. I haven’t spoken to him in 15 years. I was not a fan of his, that I can tell you.

                              However, in a 2002 profile of Epstein from New York magazine, Trump was quoted as saying: “I’ve known Jeff for 15 years. Terrific guy. He’s a lot of fun to be with. It is said that he likes beautiful women as much as I do, and many of them are on the younger side.”




                              Your boy is struggling with the truth again!
