Examples of how he’s weakened the economy when in fact it’s the strongest it’s been for 40 years as widely acknowledged by many millions of people.

Trump imposed tariffs on UK Steel and Aluminium. All UK goods with Chinese components were subject to 3 rounds of US tariffs particularly hitting the UK automotive industry but this also created reduced international demand for UK goods. Trump's dropping of the Paris accord has allowed US companies to undercut UK companies whilst polluting the planet.

Trump also deliberately tweeted things during the withdrawal and trade talks to weaken the UK negotiating position and make a no deal more likely, thus giving the US a very strong hand in any future UK/US trade negotiations. Trump has allowed further US banking deregulation which will have a knock-on effect to the UK financial institutions who will have to follow, we all know where that ended last time. He also undermined the WTO making difficult of the UK negotiators to put plausible cases to the EU about no deal.. Basically the Trump administration aim was to make the UK it's Vassal state.

Heard what on tv ? I haven't watched tv news for 4 years now as they just give you their opinion and make up lots of stuff. The first time I watched this bleach speech was yesterday until I saw it I too assumed he mentioned bleach as the MSM claim, he didnt, I have asked two people here to put links up to him saying it, neither can, yet one put up links to three newspaper stories that say he did, they were lying, I also found one you tube bit that followed on from the press conference with a report by CNN, they continually claimed he used the word, yet coulfnt actually show a clip, they also said a world leading expert at the press was horrified by his words, I could see no reaction from her and Trump asked her a question the lady made no comment about injecting bleach would be dangerous so obviously didnt think that's what he said, CNN said she was too scared to contradict him, FFS she is one of the worlds leading experts on viruses.
As I've said I'm no fan of Trump and I think if he doesn't go to the inauguration it is very childish and pathetic he is his own worse enemy, but the MSM have become a disgrace, not just over trump.

You do seem to be a Trump fan

Writing very long posts ......in his defence

No I'm not a fan, except of the truth, you can see many threads where I've called him a buffoon, an idiot etc , I started the thread where I asked if he was the most dangerous man in the world, so not a fan, however when the MSM lie and constantly twist the truth social media sites take down stuff from him yet allow posts from others who could said to be worse to remain I think we all need to open our eyes and really see who said what and in what context before we condemn them, Trump isnt the only one who suffers from this imvho. The true and honest reporting of news has become lost.
I think when you dont watch the news much and then you catch up with something it is really noticeable how bad journalists have become, that's both sides of the political spectrum.
A couple of years ago we were visiting a NT property where there was a copy of the times from the day after WW1 was declared, the difference from todays style was frightening and I do mean that word.

Anyway great summation from CNN (I know, I know .... corrupt MSM🥱) on the bitter aftertaste of the Trump era, and the bitter skepticism about the future of USA / EU partnership. Acknowledging that Trumpism is now imbedded in American politics and society. There’s a new, bigger, fatter school yard bully to be contended with by the EU.


Trump has trashed America's most important alliance. It could take decades to repair

The short term plan was to get Biden elected by any means possible.

The Vice President, with her very left wing views, has been categorically kept under wraps.

Once Biden is inaugurated, the intention is that he will soon relapse, and the Vice President will be sworn in.

The USA will become a Socialist country.

What they forgot to consider or realise was that rogue Nations would then have a field day. North Korea is already flexing its muscles.
That's right , if they thought Trump was dangerous wait until Kamila gets in , loony leftie .

You are almost 100% correct, apart from the Joe Biden sentence.

I think Trump will Activate his 2018 exc order on 19th Or maybe 20th that means the election is void due to foreign interference, bring in marshall law For a few weeks or months while he clears out the bad corrupted law makers ( ie most of them ) proves the legal votes, and carries on with his plans to MAGA.

There will be no inauguration because the election was void.

So far foreign interference from Italy, Germany, Spain, GB, Iran, China, Pakistan, Canada. US special forces in action since 3/1/21 in all those nations.

Large troop movements in the USA. 10/20 thousand NG troops depending on various reporting in DC.

19,000 new cells built.

No need to attack me please, it’s Just what I see happening.
You are free to think what you want. But your are living in an alternate universe in thinking that Biden will not be the next President of the USA on Thursday.
From what is now coming out on the state of the the USA it would seem that Trump has done nothing since a few months before the election. he has been too engrossed in getting himself elected he has left the USA leaderless. Then after the election his dented ego at losing fair and square has meant his childish mentality has not even bothered to be concerned at the pandemic which is the Worlds greatest problem at the moment. The issue of juggling economic, health and social issues all wrapped up in making decisions linked to the pandemic is taxing every leader in the world except Trump who has had a not care less attitude, as long as he is alright that is all he is worried about.

American politics is in many ways no different to UK politics where it is a two party affair where the voters hold long held voting preferences govern. So it is left to a minority of between 5-10% of voters who swing from Democrat to Republican and vice versa at every election. The Democrats are just left of centre and the Republican's are right of centre in world definition terms. The Democrats may have some socialistic ideas but they certainly cannot be deemed socialist/ lefttie or even commie. There is nothing in the things that the Democrats have suggested needs to happen that is in my view lonny leftie.
Both sides have representatives which spout idiot comments but that is politics, and really we need to look at what actually they put forward as policies and then actual legislation which is the crux. In any group you need a diverse spread of opinions to then come up with a sensible way forward.

And that ladies and gentlemen is the point. Negative views of trump have come from what you’ve read in the media spawned over 50 years of his career.

If you look at what he’s done during his term as president then he’s one of the best.

The media in my view should be totally ignored by us all. Stop reading, stop watching and ignore.

Spot on.
When the truth outs, that’s what will happen.

Europe owes its security during the cold war to the us and the uk, who else was stopping the communists walking into europe, the french or Italians? Of course you old boys would have stated neutral, again, the EU need to remember that little fact, you are a great one for bringing up history and the evils of the british empire perhaps a few memories of more modern history of europe need remembering too.

100% agree with you, and I too defend him when appropriate - but can you not see the irony in my post 163? You claiming the press misquote things and yet the evidence you provide is itself misquoted by you?

I’ll start the ball rolling.

For me he’s one of the best presidents ever. He’s run it like a business which is how all countries should be run. Prior to COVID the American economy has been the best it’s been for 40 years.

He’s done exactly what he said he was going to do.

He’s held the media to account which is what needs to happen here as well.

He’s been totally setup last week. CNN were already at Capitol Hill waiting. No other news crew were there prior to things kicking off. There is video evidence of this. The police escorted Antifa into the proceedings - again this is on video. The police opened the barriers letting them take a run at the building - again this is on video.

I don’t think the current situation is over. Joe Biden is to be impeached on his first day of office.

Trump clearly won the election and 75 million Americans aren’t going to let this go.
Wtf?
 
Really? How do you know that all 75 million Trump voters don’t believe every word he utters. It is inconceivable that any of those 75 million have any doubts about any of his statements. Indeed I believe they are all itching to take up arms to preserve Trump’s place in the White House. Furthermore if they weren’t so busy they would be demonstrating their support dressed in paramilitary garb with one hand raised in a salute of support. Proud Americans to a man and woman.
That truly would be sad
