I appreciate that Trump has found quite a lot of ways to annoy people but it doesnt

[Peter]

I like him. I dearly wish we had one.

And there are no shortage of supposedly serious people to tell you he's Hitler and the harbinger of the new rise of fascism. Obviously, these people are idiots, but newspapers keep paying them to come out with this crap.

Well, they do need to sell papers/advertising.

One of the funny things about Trump is his constant attack on the press. He is ridiculed for it but surely most of us secretly agree with much of what he says. The sheer variety of media available now means that anything approaching a professional level of journalism is a very small voice in a very large field.

In other words, news is *******s. He is right.

I dont wish we had one of him but I do slightly enjoy seeing someone **** up the political establishment. You keep hearing how difficult he is to control, how unpredictable he is....why should he be controlled? Why should he be predictable?

Is that what we expect from our leaders? Who exactly is supposed to be controlling them?

Obviously, he is still a ****...

Yes. We have been essentially sold the notion of our leading politicians as interchangeable, platitude-mouthing placemen for so long that we are now incapable of dealing with someone who doesn't censor himself, rocks up and says what he means and does what he says he's going to do. Hence my belief that he is 'a good thing'.

There is nothing wrong with professional guidance.

Except when the guidance is wrong, of course. #DrainTheSwamp

Well almost all guidance is wrong.

But extremely professional.
