Doesn't give you any credibility with anything you say does it ?, as you have recognised and commented many times before you are a hypocrite, I can tell you that not all other people are hypocrites but you certainly are. | |

He ain't dim in that respect? He's been bankrupt 5 times and has lost 100s of millions since taking over what has father created. He's losing 8 million a year on that golf course in Scotland. | | | |

Oh right, I didn't realise bankruptcy was a good thing. You have to ask why 5 of his businesses have gone bankrupt - and the last figure I saw his businesses were £650m ish in debt. Although he does have a lot of real estate I suppose. | | | | Login to get fewer ads

president trump's press conference. on 11:24 - Feb 19 by ExiledJack | To all of Trump's detractors I would ask, what would he need to do to change your opinion of him? What would you do differently if you were President? With both Trump and Brexit the polarisation of opinions feels far stronger than has typically been the case previously. It could be symptomatic of the new media age, we're no longer all singing from the same hymn sheet. |
it's nearly impossible to answer this question because trump cannot change who he is. he can bring in more moderate policies and soften some of his extreme stances, but at the end of the day he's always going to be a thin skinned narcissist who cares more about his ego than any single thing in the world. i don't see how his supporters cannot see that. he does not care about you! he creates conflicts everywhere he goes and with everyone he talks to. say what you want about obama, but he was diplomatic. he was willing to listen to both sides. i'm not going to divulge my own political beliefs, but the leader of the United States should be diplomatic. he needs to be willing to work with countries and leaders and in doing so he needs to be able to find common ground. so you ask what he can do for me? honestly, i think we're stuck in a nightmare. he is a sick man, and he's come about at a time in history where (rightly or wrongly) there are a lot of very scared people. his campaign fed on that and his supporters have been sold a con. | | | |

president trump's press conference. on 13:05 - Feb 19 by londonlisa2001 | At a Florida rally yesterday Trump mentioned a terror attack in Sweden on Friday. It appears that there was a suicide bomber in Sehwan in Pakistan. So the President doesn't know the difference between a town in Pakistan and a Scandinavian country? Are his advisors as bloody stupid as him or does he struggle with basic comprehension? The sad thing is that the people at that rally will now be convinced that Sweden had a terror attack on Friday and when the papers tell them that there wasn't they'll just cry 'FakeNews'. It's pretty similar to the news in North Korea who always report that their football team has won. |
I think he mentioned the nonexistent incident in Sweden to get the media talking about Sweden and how its multiculturalism is having a very negative impact on the country. He has done this sort of thing a number of times already. There was the 'Bowling Green Massacre' comments he made, where shortly after nearly every major media organisation in America was tearing apart his comments, stating how there were only x amount of people killed or x amount of terrorist attacks etc. But that benefited him, as you had coverage everywhere listing all the terrorist attacks in America committed by Muslims. Even the BBC joined in. | |

" His meetings with other leaders have been decent so far. He's received leaders from all over the world and they have left without many hitches or controversy. It's his tirade against the media which is farcical. Although he is right in many ways it's probably not his place to point it out. | |

Point of order, it was Kellyanne Conway who mentioned the "Bowling Green massacre", not Trump. Apparently there was a documentary on Fox News on Friday regarding Sweden which Trump may have taken miles out of context. http://www.nydailynews.com/news/politics/trump-suggests-sweden-troubled-refugees | | | |

Thanks. I do think he and his team are making these 'silly' comments just to get the media talking about points they would not normally touch though. Speaking of Sweden, a 14 year-old child bride from Syria came to Sweden and became pregnant with her husband, who is also her cousin. Now a Swedish court has approved of her marriage, because she appears "mature," and for religious and cultural reasons. What is happening in that country? Stuff like this is appalling. http://www.vlt.se/opinion/ledare/sakine-madon-rattsvasendet-sviker-hedersutsatta | |

This. 100%. Most of his supporteres don't care about the truth now. Absolutely not interested in it. The more he can reinforce that, by telling them that everything bad they hear about him is "fake news" from the "MSM" the better for him. And they believe it. Because they are stupid. Good for him. Bad for democracy. His fans don't care. We won. Suck it up. | | | |

This article and it's quotes from moderate Trump supporters - from the very liberal New York Times of all places - sums it up for reasonable people like me. https://mobile.nytimes.com/2017/02/18/opinion/sunday/are-liberals-helping-trump. Feel free to continue to ridicule all us "stupid" people all you want with hyperbole and idioticly closed-minded dismissals that we must not care about the truth, Humpty, if it helps you deal with your rage towards people who disagree with you. But you might want to save the sanctimonious "their side is bad for democracy" card for a time when Democrats can lose an election without resorting to nationwide looting, riots, and violent assaults on men AND women who didn't vote the same way as them.

He didn't consult his advisor's. What he did was listen on the plane over to a cable news interview with an ultra conservative blogger about violence in Sweeden since they let in so many refugees. Trump wasn't paying close enough attention however, and equated the general story to a fictional terror attack that happened the night before. Yes, the President of the United States apparently gets his news from American television....we're all doomed. | | | |

I do enjoy the 'post cock up' spin that his supporters try to put on everything. The thought of people sitting there scratching their heads and saying 'what the f*** can we pretend he meant this time' is really quite funny. As is the desire among the unthinking to then believe the nonsense they come up with and repeat it. Perhaps if he wished to draw attention to immigration related issues in Sweden, he could do so by mentioning them at his rally or during his press conference? That way, they get talked about without the vast majority of the world believing him to be an incompetent buffoon? | | | |

The 'I can't believe everyone thinks I'm really stupid when I had to vote for him rather than Hillary because I'm a conservative' would ring slightly more true Tummer if it wasn't for the fact that there were a large number of other republican candidates available. Some people are talking as though it was Trump or no one. Not everyone would have voted for him in the primaries obviously, but more did than voted for any other republican candidate. They should take some responsibility for their choice rather than bitch and whine about people being mean to them. And they call the 'other side' snowflakes? | | | |
