Trump

[Alan]

Please expand.

Introduced crack cocaine into urban neighborhoods, sold weapons to Central American drug cartels, destroyed the American social safety infrastructure, etc etc

 

[Lord Knows]

Other presidents made disastrous mistakes. Reagan made some outright evil decisions.

It depends which side of the political divide you find yourself, Many of us find Reaganomics divisive having seen them used by Thatcher. Its political theory as devised by Barry Goldwater.

Then why isreagan so fondly remembered and how come he was re elected?

 

[Freddeno]

Bush jr (trigger happy just like his dad) and donald fucking trump is equally bad...maybe donald just taking first place for being a total retard...

Thatcher is fondly remembered and was re-elected? But is utterly detested by vast swathes of the country too. I'm not sure what your point is?

There are also those who forget just how bad it was under Thatcher/Reagan and only remember any of the good points. You surely don't need political partisanship explaining to you?

Not for here no. But not being American or living in America I have never had to live with the actions of an American president. You surely do not need geography explaining to you?

Additionally Blair also used some of Thatchers milder policies! It happens. Times change. I was interested in an American view of Reagan from someone who probably lived with the consequences.

If Trump is elected as President I think it says as much about Hilary Clinton as anything else. I suppose the Americans will vote for the person they dislike the least.

North Korean state media has hailed US Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump as a "wise politician" who could be good for the North.

He joins the likes of Katie Hopkins and Vladimir Putin who think he's a good egg.

Just Ian Brady and Keith Chegwin to go before he's got a full posse of utter cunts following him.

I expected Adrian Chiles to be on your list...

TBF there were a few candidates I could have added.

So it transpires that Trump University was a scam, but the only reason we've found out about this is because "the Judge hates me because he's Mexican" according to Trump.

USGA do a good turn for the world. Trump hosts a golf tournament every year at the Blue Monster course at Doral, Miami. Brilliant course. However, this year he has been struggling to get sponsors together for 2017 as he probably has other things on his mind.

So the USGA have moved the tournament to a course....





















In MEXICO

hahahahahahahahahahahaha

I bet he is RAGING

Speaking of Trump and golf, one of his recent pronouncements is that climate change is a load of old bollocks (he must have read the thread on here).

He has an exclusive golf course in Ireland and has applied to build a high seawall (he likes his walls) and the reason given in his companies planning permission?

climate change....

Certainly ruffled his hair....

Rory McIlroy was asked about the move and I loved his comment saying the players will just have to climb over the wall

Apols for putting this in the trump thread, but I don't think we have a US politics thread?
