Donald Trump

He is punching above his weight with his missus, he must have a great personality :)

I heard a story from my old boss once, used to be a financial controller for one of trumps companies, this was with the wife before. He asked Trump how he found such a lovely woman and Trump said he met her in a club. Kieran turned round and said "so you were in a club, you opened up your wallet and there she was?". Lad got sacked :(

I don't think you should be referring to American voters as thick racists mate.

Agreed, **** is a perfectly multifunctional word.

I think a lot of his supporters are just anti-establishment/whatever is popular.

Just like in the 70's, 80's and early 90's it was cool to be anti-conservatism (hence a lot of comics, cult shows rebelled against the establishment and pushed against social conservatives) now it's cool to rebel against what they see as liberal norms. Hence a lot of the trolling.

In actual news in one of the first Trump administrations orders, the Dept of Housing & Urban Development suspended the reduction of FHA annual mortgage insurance premium rates - in other words they made it harder for poor people to get mortgages.

His supporters will love that.

Right this has been tidied up, if it goes down that route again, it will simply be deleted for good.

Discuss the situation, but keep the crap off the thread.

You all know who you are, who have had posts deleted, if any more get reported then warnings will almost certainly follow.

What did I miss?

I reckon he'll feed it, taking the extremity has never really solved anything well. It's won a fair few times, but it's always caused bother after.

True, but this relies on the person causing offense to feel guilt,remorse and generally give a fuck. I'm not sure Trump does, so the trial by social media (free speech so long as you say the same thing as everyone else) thing probably won't work. Four years is a long time for his opponents to just go on about what a twat he is without having any ideas of their own.

Taken at the same time and can be verified. It's like our parade vs the rags.

Those protesting Trump have the democratic right to do so but they make even left wing liberals cringe.

Let's not forget though that when Obama was elected there were right wingers who were protesting too...are they snowflakes also?
