Members bolty58 Posted January 8, 2018 Members Share Posted January 8, 2018 Go on then, what did he do that had such an impact? Not only have measures taken by Trump kick started their (and consequently everyone else's) economy, his policies now have the two Korea's talking to each other with a chance of collaboration for the Pyeongchang Winter Olympics. He'll have detente developing between the Jewish people and the Arabs next once the initial kerfuffle has died down. You watch. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

madthatter Posted January 8, 2018 Share Posted January 8, 2018 Doubt that, did you see that C4 documentary on him? He wouldn't have done it if he didn't think he'd win or at least try to - he knocked back the opportunity in 2000 and 2012 for that reason It looked like obama mocking him at a Whitehouse dinner and everyone laughing at him was the final push he needed to go for it I haven't. I don't doubt the piss taking and comedy he was inadvertently providing was a massive incentive to prove doubters wrong. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So he's not managed to cause the kind of end of world stuff that many predicted then? Still time, I suppose . . . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think the point the article was trying to make out it was its all a bit shit despite the figures saying otherwise.

Sweep Posted January 12, 2018 Share Posted January 12, 2018 What a fucking snowflake. We all know he is, he's a bully boy, and like most of his ilk, he doesn't like it when it's turned around on him, hence him not having the balls to front it out. They had one of his supporters on the news this morning, she was a proper loon, she was saying that his support is starting to wain a bit as he hasn't delivered on his pledges to stop all immigration and he hasn't built the wall yet - I didn't think those who voted for him actually thought he was going to build an actual, physical wall, I thought it was a metaphorical thing.

If millions voted for brexit on the basis of saving £350m per week then I'm sure plenty on Americans voted for trump on the basis a wall was going to be built.
