Donald Trump

[Peter]

I was about to say the very same thing. Though WES is right about Trump. For a draft dodger to tell the families of the 457 British squaddies who gave their lives in Afghanistan that they weren't fighting on the front line is sickening.

I think he's getting mixed up with WW1 when Foch and Haig stuck the Septics in the quiet sectors so us two could get on with the real fighting on the Western Front.

Even during the 100 Days in 1918, us and the Frogs had casualty rates of c.21%, the Septics had 6%.

Next royal banquet, HMK should put 23mg of white fluff crystal LSD into his burger. That's about 230 good trips. And that should sort him out.

If the guy who shot him and wiped the bullets in acid, it wouldn't have mattered that it just missed. He'd still be chatting to Shiva now.

Sometimes i think he says this stuff purely to annoy people and cause trouble.

The world just has to ride it out for a few years.

I?ve a feeling that Davos spectacle may have been the turning point.
From a bloke who avoided the draft five times.
Has there ever been a more vile human in such a position of power ?

Well, Adolf wasn't exactly HH the Dalai Lama, was he?

And Edward Robert Bulwer-Lytton, later 1st Earl of Lytton, was Viceroy of India during the 1877-78 famine when up to 15m died in the Deccan because of the Tory belief in laissez-faire economics. Lytton was the prot?g? of the PM, Dizzy, and this free market obsession they shared meant that grain was exported from the famine hit areas because those regions didn't have the money to buy it so the grain supply in the famine hit areas was sold to the other regions that had the money to pay their demand.

So yeah, he's worse than Trump. Trump's just killed a few Septics who watch rounders, while Lytton killed millions of decent people who play cricket and can speak English with a civilised accent.

No American prince has ever invented the leg glance like Ranjitsinhji or won us the Ashes like the Nawab of Pataudi.

I disagree. I sadly think he actually believes it.

The thing with Trump is that what he says and how he behaves is far worse than what he actually does.

For example, Nixon committed treason by sabotaging Johnson's peace talks over Vietnam as he needed the issue as an election pledge. He then continued the war long after he knew it unwinnable as he didn't want the inevitable fall of Saigon to affect his re election. And then there is Watergate...... and his resignation timed perfectly so that his successor could pardon him.

That's all pretty ****ing bad.

And there's Adolf, as you say. Stalin was no saint, Putin neither.

And dont get me started on Lord John Russell....or Thatcher.....

Trump's legacy will be his total disregard for the office of President.

I'm not sure he believes anything.

Behold. The festering carcass of American rot shoved into an ill-fitting suit: the sleaze of a conman, the cowardice of a draft dodger, the gluttony of a parasite, the racism of a Klansman, the sexism of a Doack-alley creep, the ignorance of a bar-stool drunk, and the greed of a hedge-fund ghoul ? all spray-painted orange and paraded like a prize hog at a county fair. Not a president. Not even a man.
Just the diseased distillation of everything this country swears it isn't but has always been-arrogance dressed up as exceptionalism, stupidity passed off as common sense, cruelty sold as toughness, greed exalted as ambition, and corruption worshiped like gospel. It is America's shadow made flesh, a rotting pumpkin idol proving that when a nation kneels before
money, power, and spite, it doesn't just lose its soul-it sh*ts out this bloated obscenity and calls it a leader.

Rude, foul, arrogant, vulgar, narcissistic, probably mentally ill - even more so than you. Where the Orange filth is better than you is that he?s often right. Europe has sat on its smug arse and left he heavy lifting on security to the US. The UN is a talking shop that achieves nothing. Obviously I hate the **** but **** me, the world of Blair, Cameron, Merkel, Biden, von der Leyen, Trudeau, Starmer and Davos needs destroying.

The UN is a complete irrelevance. It's dead.

As for the rest of it. It depends what you mean by security, I suppose.

Still think Lytton starving 15m Indians - 2.5x the Holocaust total - is worse. And all because of an obsession with laissez faire economics.

Precisely the same issue in the response to the great hunger in Ireland. And it cost millions of lives. (Hence Lord John Russell).

Admittedly, the root causes of it were not entirely his fault. Still.... what a ****.

1m dead and 2m emigrated, roughly.

1877-8 in India was an El-Ni?o famine and both Moghul India and Qing China had far more success historically with dealing with their El-Ni?o famines. Because for all their myriad faults, the Moghuls and the Qing Chinese weren't Tory free-market obsessives.

Btw, "the root causes" - spuds are tubers, not roots.

{Well, according to google anyway. I haven't got a clue what either term means and what the differences are. We've only grown herbs, and last year, a few leeks and spring onions along with ****loads of cucumbers.

But given how quickly those green feckers took over our garden, the Paddies should just have planted them instead of spuds and then Russel could have fed them all on cucumber sarnies. If our garden last summer was anything to go by, a bit of rain and a bit of sunshine would have seen everywhere between Cork and Londonderry covered in cucumbers. It was like Day of the Triffids - if you could make a Greek Salad out of triffids.}
