Trump

[Alan]

Not being funny Jonny but it's a bit late to stop being a fucking cunt now

This clown needs to check his privilege. I read @JDVance book making the mistake of finding him quite interesting. By his own admission he spent his time in the Marines “writing articles and taking pictures”.

Perhaps if he had got his hands dirty serving his country like so… https://t.co/wFKQFKMIeL

Jesus Christ. What a fucking embarrassment.

Afghanistan? Iraq? Both at American request… has Starmer started preparing the bill yet for our assistance?

Now will politicians finally realise that if ever there was a special relationship, it is over and no amount of obsequious fawning over Trump and Vance will revive it. In fact it simply makes us look weak.

I read the point today that article 5 has only ever been invoked once - on September 12th 2001, resulting in thousands of European troops helping America.

Tory MP Graham Stuart (no, me neither)

Hes an asset in the sense that he's a useful idiot. Not necessarily that he's in the pay of Russia.

Aye, I wouldn't be surprised if he or his family have benefited from some lucrative and entirely unconnected investment opportunities with Russian money but I'd draw the line at the thought of him being an actual plant takin orders. Imagine the stress of being his handler ffs, you couldn't do he job for more than a few weeks before you were frazzled

Hopefully, he’s a Russian asset, he’s doing russias bidding getting them what they want and putting himself and the rest of his family deeper in debt with them, at some point they’ll pull the rug from under them leaving them all high and dry exposed as spies and wide open for a prison sentence asap.
I’d even speculate melania is his handler, as was Ivana before her and that’s why his marriage in between didn’t last.
None of the above helps the rest of the world but here we are

179 British service personnel died in Iraq and 457 died in Afghanistan supporting US policy...has Vance even said "Thank you"?

He said this.

Vance said it was “absurdly dishonest” to argue that he had been referring to the UK or France, despite the countries being at the forefront of efforts to provide a non-US peacekeeping force.
“I don’t even mention the UK or France in the clip, both of whom have fought bravely alongside the US over the last 20 years, and beyond,” he tweeted. “But let’s be direct: there are many countries who are volunteering (privately or publicly) support who have neither the battlefield experience nor the military equipment to do anything meaningful.”

Still a cunt.

 

[Del Woppio]

It's just a row back. He knew exactly what he was saying, even if he didn't know it was fucking stupid.

Agreed. He probably doesn't even know where the Gulf of Mexico is.

Is it somewhere near the Gulf of America?

Still a cunt.

So they've (these insignificant countries by his standards) more compassion and moral resolve backbone than the 'most powerful nation in the world' to support a country which has been invaded by a superior power?

Sounds like a statement covering another statement when someone has allowed their mouth to speak before their brain catches up.
Plus he knows full who he was referring to and so does the rest of the world.

Wars are about strategic and economical interests, not because of compassion. The UK and EU are stepping up now, because they were told to, or the US could leave NATO. If Russia says, if Europe puts troops in Ukraine, that they will attack the troops, no troops would be going there. Soldiers are trained to have resolve, unfortunately, most politicians think about money and power.
I still think Vance is an ignorant cunt though.

Definitely.

Yep, same with Johnson. It's like looking after a bloody toddler.

The pair of them being idiots, absurdly vain and amoral to the point of incompetence was enough.

What is an 'illegal' protest? Tactics straight out of a former German Chancellor's playbook.
