barrycowdrill Posted August 29, 2018 Share Posted August 29, 2018 I think it's highly unlikely me and Trump will end up in a battle I don't do twitter Whether he gives a fuck or not is irrelevant when pointing out he spouts bollocks we all do, if our job was determined by how much bollocks we spoke we would all be on the dole Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderators Zico Posted August 29, 2018 Moderators Share Posted August 29, 2018 regards the rust belt jobs he's now telling people in some of those areas if they want a job, they probably need to move to another part of the country might struggle to win back those voters next time Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
frank_spencer Posted August 29, 2018 Share Posted August 29, 2018 Just after he got elected, there was a piece on the news where they interviewed people in Pittsburgh, I think it Was, where he had promised to bring back the jobs to the rust belt They said they didn't believe a word of it as all the steel mills and mines had closed down years ago so it was unrealistic they would ever open again Not a Hollywood celebrity to be seen Saw a bit last week under trump and his tariffs a steel mill had reopened and was employing people again. However due to the tarrifs a manufacturing plant was shutting down and more people than were working at the steel. Place were going to be out of work. It's on that John oliver video a few pages back I think. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Youri McAnespie Posted August 29, 2018 Share Posted August 29, 2018 If one whacked an eightball up the nostril of a half-dead nag it'd run like billy-o for a bit... That's all Trump's done regarding certain Rust Belt industries imo. I thought that series of programmes with Ed Balls was fairly even-handed and worth a watch for anyone who didn't catch it.

kent_white Posted August 29, 2018 Share Posted August 29, 2018 I can understand wanting to get on the nerves of the 'liberal elite'. I can understand wanting to upset the political establishment. I can understand wanting an end to political correctness. I can understand taking delight in watching hand wringing celebs eat humble pie. I can understand thinking you can't make an omelette without breaking some eggs. I can understand thinking ultimately the economy is more important than social issues. I can understand wanting to see an end end to perceived hypocrisy. I just can't understand anybody thinking Donald Trump is anything other than a cock.

royal white Posted August 29, 2018 Share Posted August 29, 2018 Come on Royal, even you must watch sometimes and think does he have to be such a cock? Is he perfect? Far from it, Is anyone? He’s a reality tv show host/businessman who bagged himself the biggest job in the world (that in itself deserves praise he doesn’t get) He’s no bigger cock than the ‘seasoned’ politicians that have been doing this since school, for me, regardless of his mistakes, he’s a breath of fresh air who I genuinely believe has his country’s best interests at heart. Something our politicians could learn from. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Something our politicians could learn from. Fair enough. Obviously I have a different take on it Personally I think the only interests he has at heart are his own. It's a game for him. A rich lad having a bit of a fuck about cos he's bored. It won't end well. In short, he's a cock.

Salford Trotter Posted August 29, 2018 Share Posted August 29, 2018 Im trying to find where I said it’s ok with me to take the piss out of a dead mans family....can you point me to where I said that? Salford trotter said he “mocks fallen soldiers” How is suggesting 1 person may not be able to speak (which is a probability) mocking fallen soldiers? From BBC US President Donald Trump says a claim that he made insensitive remarks to the recently bereaved widow of a soldier is "totally fabricated". Congresswoman Frederica Wilson said he had told Myeshia Johnson: "He knew what he was signing up for, but I guess it hurts anyway." The Democratic lawmaker said she was shocked by the alleged comments. Sgt La David Johnson was among four US special service soldiers killed in Niger by Islamist militants this month. Mr Trump had already been criticised for not contacting the families of the dead servicemen right after the fatal ambush on 4 October.

MalcolmW Posted August 29, 2018 Share Posted August 29, 2018 Soon after Hurricane Maria hit Puerto Rico he was boasting that there were only 16 deaths, compared to over 1,800 after Hurricane Katrina, though soon afterwards the official death count was raised from 16 to 64. It has now been set at almost 3,000, but no comment from POTUS. At least he's not derided it as fake news (yet). But of course every hurricane is different and only a simpleton would attempt to score points in this way. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
