President Trump

I'm pushing 40 - the older I get, I'm not sure the public should be allowed to vote on what colour pens the government get to use.

I say this as someone that was routinely derided for NOT voting as I didn't have a party / candidate that I wanted to vote for (not the least-worst option).

We are nowhere near well enough informed to make decisions and we are not voting for the same things (region / family / future / planet / world).

I noticed the other day my spelling and maths (which was shite to begin with) has probably only gotten worse over the last 20+ years as I regularly use Excel and Outlook etc with work. I know that I don't have to spell everything correctly as it will be critiqued and highlighted by AI allowing me to amend.

I think we live in a bubble where we still assume that people in public office are doing so because they genuinely want to make a difference, make things better (regardless of their political views). This is outdated bollocks as a general starting point which needs updating and I'm not saying that there aren't genuine cases - I think the likes of Raynor and Jess Philips et al DO genuinely believe they can make a positive difference.

For instance, let's say someone as unlikeable as Reece-Mogg starte running a more central policy as he manoeuvred to take a run at PM in 4-8 years time.

Evening his policies were really appealing across the board to rich and poor alike, you would have to be hugely sceptical of the why and the how, what is motivations are and whether it is likely to ever actually be implemented. We cannot trust any of the the fuckers and we are still too passive when we have been fucked over or lied to.

I'd love to be able to mock America for being stupid but we are just as fucking dense in this country (see continuously voting Tory for 14 straight years and leaving the EU).

Fuck this off - on to the derby........ :-)

Yep, we voted Johnson into power , that in itself is an embarrassment.
 
"you can fool some of the people all the time,
You can fool all of the people some of the time,
You cannot fool all of the people, all the time"

Sadly, the third line is redundant when 'some' is 75million...

Trump is not a clever man, he is not a visionary man, he is a pitiful man.

I feel sorry for him, he does not have the mental ability to grasp complex problems. He is like Johnson, he loves himself and thinks because he loves himself he has the answers to issues he does not comprehend. It is cultish, MAGA is a cult.

Like Johnson, Trump has the ability to pander to stupidity and ignorance, that is their level.

Trump is a fragile man, he was the son of a dominant father who behaved like a monster by all the accounts i have read, that makes him insecure, he feels he needs to be seen as strong because his daddy would have hated his weakness. This is what the tariffs are all about, it is nothing to do with economics, it is all about validation of Trump as a leader, he needs and craves respect, because he is at the end of the day, the weak little son of a horrible father.

Fuck him.
He can afford counselling.
No need for this shit.

I typically shy away from calling people evil and the silly childishness is an absolute truth — but the utilization of power to enact vengeance upon his perceived enemies who are trying to do right by the laws that bind us for the good of all, and his specific direct actions to make the weak, the poor and the less fortunate (who have done nothing to him nor anyone else) suffer have pushed him to a level that now moves him into that category. Trying to find the good in him, at least in his public life, has been a fruitless task to this point for me.

Not to mention the poor penguins on McDonald island.

NOT at the expense of EVERYONE else.
I expect there to be extensive investigations into anyone who shorted stocks in the couple of months leading up to his "announcement" - although that's probably wishful thinking.
His cronies will have made a nice killing over this latest fuck up
