    You may scoff, but that was another masterstroke from the Donald; lots of the right sort will heartily agree with his position.

    I was out buying a new bed the other day and there was one model that had a big cutout of Joe Root next to it. I was momentarily very confused. What has Joe Root got to do with mattresses?

    Anyway, I didn't buy it. It was one of these memory foam abortions. Can't be doing with them.

    I rather liked his speech to the UN, too. Sticking up for the nation state in front of all those ghastly no borders types. Good on him imo.

    And let's face it: there ought to be a country called Nambia.

    So long as you realise and are comfortable with, the fact that your rather, if I may say, selfish and short-sighted behaviour on this may have just cost us the Ashes

    Especially as most people wouldn't actually know if there already was or not.

    Good old Les.

    I probably won't tune in to it anyway. Every other person on TMS nowadays is some woman or other, trying to ̶f̶o̶r̶c̶e̶ ̶w̶o̶m̶e̶n̶'̶s̶ ̶c̶r̶i̶c̶k̶e̶t̶ ̶d̶o̶w̶n̶ ̶o̶u̶r̶ ̶t̶h̶r̶o̶a̶t̶s̶ promote the ladies' game

    Who exactly are the right sort?

    I assume that you mean it makes him look like an ignorant arsehole. I do wonder how much longer this 'masterstroke' will carry on working.

    People who might vote for him obviously. I'm an ignorant arsehole myself; I don't do name-calling.

    Anyway, nobody knows the future, I think.

    Playing to the base works in times of trouble. It doesnt get you elected. Apart from with Trump, where it did.

    I think the point is that he hasn't actually done any of the things he said he would- the things that got him elected. This might explain the lowest approval rating in history more than his rather oafish behaviour.

    Build a wall and brings some heavy industry jobs back. If he does that, he can say what he likes.

    I wasnt calling you an ignorant arsehole. I have no idea what you mean half the time so I couldn't possibly think you were ignorant
