I saw some harriden from the ladies for Trump organization on a US show. Fuck. Even more deluded than  he is. "The humour was deliberate and the speech was well received" . No contact with reality at all. Its stopped being funny and is getting scary.

It's been coming for years though, you only have to watch Louis Theroux stuff going back decades. Lots of yanks are proper doolally, I don't know why, I'm sure PHDs and shit have been done on it.

His current press conference in New York is absolutely crazy. Just the inane ramblings of a mentally ill madman.

Just logged in to post the same thing. Car crash TV at its finest. I’ve been glued to it for the last half hour and he hasn’t managed to answer one question. Totally and utterly batshit mental.

It's mad. It's funny and scary at the same time. Somebody has to do something. He's clearly mentally unwell.

It's boss.

 

"A woman stood up at an event and asked what I was going to do about this place called Idlib. I'd never heard of it. I picked up the failing new York Times - because it is failing - and they had this same story. So I told Pompeo and Bolton to stop it and we did. And do you know? I get lots of Syrians coming up to me and thanking me."

 

"That was fake news. The UN weren't laughing at me they were laughing with me, we had a great time."

 

I'm in genuine stitches, the man's amazing.

[Captain Turdseye]

He’s gonna sort Israel out by himself and bring in a two state solution. 

 

“It’s just a real estate deal”

[Section_31]

"I think there's going to be a two state deal (Israel and Palestine) but it's difficult because it's a real estate deal".

 

 

It's just breathtaking stuff. He's utterly batshit.

[Section_31]

Did he just call the leader of Saudi Arabia King Soloman?

Were you watching earlier when he said Obama was ready to go to war in North Korea and Trump being elected and meeting with Kim Jong-Un prevented WW3 and saved millions of lives?

Nah I missed that. He's genuinely mentally ill though. Murdoch's fox news and the republicans are the real problem. This is some weekend at bernies shit.

[Captain Turdseye]

How has nobody dragged him off the stage?

[Nelly-Szoboszlai]

"I don't like NAFTA...I don't even say NAFTA." 

 

He's just said NAFTA about 5 times in the past 2 minutes. 

 

He's now quoting Elton John. 

[Nelly-Szoboszlai]

After that press conference, just imagine what he'd be like if he were ever to be interviewed by Mueller. 

 

It'd be utter carnage. 

[Captain Turdseye]

That bit there earlier when the Kurdish reporter was trying to ask a question...

 

CRINGE.

I'm not a fan of Trump. 

However, I understand his anti globalisation stance. Unfortunately there's not a damn thing he can do about it. Not only has globalisation just about destroyed the US economy, it's arguably done the same to the whole of The Western world.

Decades of short sighted profit bingeing by Corporations (by giving the means of production to China and Asia) but not curtailing consumer spending, has meant that the gap between incomes and spending has been filled with the largest amount of Government and household debt the western world has ever seen.

He (erroneously) thinks protectionism and production will turn it all around, but China (and it's relationships) are now far too powerful, and I don't see how the yanks will be able to compete. Hell, my country can't compete, Britain can't compete...and Europe clings to it's protectionist mass market, but individually, European corporations do deals with Russia and China - example: Total (French) have a 25% stake in the new Russian Gas fields and pipeline - Danish ships carry Russian gas through the arctic circle to China, as the ice recedes in record quantities....

So we have a political system that says one thing, and we have a very real global economy headed by private corps doing something completely different.

Trump probably has many regrets, but becoming president would be the biggest. To think he actually had an idea that he could change anything.

You credit him with having original ideas?

He has zero insight into how the simplest mechanisms work

I'm just watching a re-run of the press conference. It's hard to believe that it's not an Alexie Sayle-like parody act from the Edinburgh festival or something similar. For anyone with the slightest doubt that he is the most unsuitable man for office coffee/coffeefee making duties, never mind POTUS, you need to see this with your own eyes. All our lives and that of our children are in his (tiny) hands.

The Guardian’s ‘Long Read’ this morning is unbelievable.

More gems from last night:

 

(Trump talking about himself) "China has great respect for Donald Trump, and for his very, very large brain".

 

Talking to a kurdish journalist. "Are you kurdish? Great people, lovely people, let's hear from Mr Kurd".

Last Christmas, my 3 year-old nephew (looking adorable and cute with his skinny little arms poking out of his vest) was getting his presents out from under the tree. I offered to lift one of the bigger ones out for him and he said "No. It's OK.  I've got big muscles."

 

No doubt China has respect for Jack and his very, very large muscles.

It’s better than that. He said: “very very large, a brain”.

A real estate deal, in which whoever has most money gets the land. 

 

That explains a lot.
