Re: Trump
He has made a laughing stock of the USA, a real classic balls up has to be the tariffs on China.
China has hit back. No longer going to export to the USA on selected goods.
One such item are parts for Boeing aircraft so that place may well start to wind down operations.
Seriously you could not make it up the man is a total clown.
He has as Biden said caused world chaos in less than a 100 days, I wonder has sleepy Joe just woken up from his time in hibernation since January

Re: Trump
Trump the clown said I will end that war in Ukraine within a day
On the news this morning.
US threatens to walk away from Russia-Ukraine ceasefire talks if no progress made ‘in days’
Guess Trumps bully boy tatics are of no concern to Putin.
Not been a great week for Trump, Harvard Uni have told him to take a flyin kcuf at himself , China has called his bluff and the Supreme court have ruled against him over the deportation of an American to El Salvador.
The clock towards impeachment is ticking

Re: Trump
Rumbling galore in the news about our Donald and what he may do next and what may well be his undoing.
China are not concerned about him and there are rumors he will not continue with tariffs when the 90 days are up.
Of couse he will say,' they have done the job we required and all the other countries will pay a tariff now"
But no such tariff may exist, bluff and bluster is the manner of his presidency and he could win an Olympic medal in that sport.


Happy daze John in Oz.

Re: Trump
Am I the only one here that thinks Trump's administration is doing a good job in cleaning up the alleged corruption / woke ideology etc etc ? . I don't like him as a person
but I wish some of his ideas would clean up the mess over on this side of the pond .

Re: Trump
Yes John, I suspect you may be the only one that thinks Trump and his administration are doing a good job. Trump has been convicted of bribery and corruption.
Concerning Wokism!!!a lot of those who oppose woke/wokeism are usually people who are from right wing thinking, and those who are deemed to be !!Woke ers!! are classed as being from the left.
2014 and during the Black lives matter campaign WOKE became the inword!!!
Wokeism has been around in one shape or other for as long as I can remember, but to me it was just about Right or Left wing politics.

The basic idea would be good to get things back on an even keel but the extremist actions to do it are over the top and we see all the would be fascists coming out of the woodwork to jump on Trumps bandwagon.

Re: Trump
Trump tries to portray himself as a man of peace but yet he has given (permission) to Netanyahu to carry on with the Genocide in Gaza. He has already said it will make a great holiday resort.
