Just being exposed as a horrible racist cock isn't enough, there has to be evidence of illegal activity to remove him, especially as the GOP are so desperate to hang onto power and push through as many tax breaks for the rich as possible before they are consigned to the dustbin of history.
hes on the birther stuff again

I really wonder if theres some big meuller news on the way
especially as the GOP are so desperate to hang onto power and push through as many tax breaks for the rich as possible before they are consigned to the dustbin of history.
I think the more important thing for them is to stack the courts full of judges who will push the right agenda. With their blocking of pretty much everyone Obama put forward means lots of places available.
Strong words from TM on Trumps far right propaganda tweets.
Only kidding, true to form she has bottled it again.

Our PM is about as much use as Pope Frank's knob.
He's bored, to scared to go outside just in case the fat korean boy beats him up again. OAPs are scared of youths!
been away, just seen this on the news, but did hear Sarah Sanders defending the tweets and fake news with '"Whether it's a real video, the threat is real," Press Secretary Sarah Huckabee Sanders told reporters. "His goal is to promote strong border security and strong national security." '
We know Trump's a nutter but how can these people turn up to work every day and defend this shit and still be able to look in a mirror afterwards?

Possibly it is the height of professionalism. If you can spin his crap well, you can go on to get a job for Nestle, Colombian drug dealers or Croatian genocidal maniacs. Shows remarkable mental flexibility!
So much for them trade agreements.
Jeez. Still, at least we can cancel the state visit / wedding invite now. Although I'd quite like him to come so we can all go and tell him directly what we think.
Indeed, disappointed he won't be coming now as it would've been amusing to see just how big the protests got.
As for him criticising May, are there any humiliations left for the poor woman?
I still haven't seen any indication his state visit will be cancelled, I expect TM is hiding in the broom closet hoping it all goes away.
Nope visit still on despite being a petulant child, he just needs to survive that long, maybe did I see Flynn was chatting more to Muller?
The best response would be to release three videos of a Trump impersonator grabbing a staff member by the p****y, juggling with the nuclear launch button, and overseeing the building of gas chambers; with the message "it doesn't matter if they are real, the threat is real"
Wow, just heard Ann Coulter defending Trump on R4.
I feel like I need a shower, but what shower gel to remove the stench of far right lunacy?
I am not a fan of ad hominem attacks, but Ann Coulter's voice makes me want to pour cement in my ears.
Yep, saw her on C4 News last night. It is hard to find words to describe the vile qualities on display. Krishnan Gurumurthy was a bit wrongfooted by the sheer audacity of her relationship with facts.
As for him criticising May...
As an aside, he apparently initially tweeted to the wrong Theresa May!

Did he get a better response than from the 'real one ?
Could the other Theresa May take over the county for a bit?
Apparently the other Theresa May only has 6 followers. Which is still 3 more than the PM can count on from the physical ranks of 'her' party currently.
Ann Coulter......amazing. I thought Justin was just about managing to stay professional, but the temptation to go full troll mode must have been so high!
Ann Coulter knows that she's being a dick, she's made a career out of being a dick and will continue to be a dick for as long as she's given airtime. Ten years ago, we all laughed at the like of Coulter, now the swap seems to be teeming with shrill, white activists with a tenuous grasp on reality.
I expect her to be hired by the Daily Heil any day now.
I'm sure the journalists think that giving her so much air time exposes her and her views… but it doesn't, it normalises them, and helps her achieve her aims.

Bingo.
I remember when her ilk were viewed as extreme and 'over there'.
Depressing as f.
I feel a bit sorry for Theresa May. I thought the tweet that was put out yesterday was a good response, and from a "normal" diplomatic standpoint, it was pretty blunt. but she's (they? I presume many folk have access to her twitter, and responses are probably a group effort) up against some-one who's revealed himself to be a racist, but he's also the Pres...where d'you go with that? Everybody understands we've got to have good relations with the USA, but I don't think 140 characters is probably a good way of conducting Atlantic diplomacy with some-one as un-hinged as Trump. Loose if you try to respond, look bad if you don't...
That's exactly the point. We're forced into debating the merits of censorship in order to counter the tripe that Coulter et al spout, which plays right into the hands of their wider agenda. They actually want to be censored and silenced, it legitimises their attack on liberal values however well meaning.
Honestly, the best thing we can all do is to collectively passively resist when these people speak. If we all ignored them, they'd go away. Equally, if we satirise them and make them figures of ridicule while indulging their freedom of expression then it's equally effective.
Equally, the very best thing that happened to Hatey Plopkins was her and her employer getting repeatedly sued for defamation of character and slander. If ever I bump into Jack Monroe in London, I will be sure to contribute handsomely to their bar tab.
holding his tiny racist hand was alway going to come back and haunt May

urgent Q in the commons, will May have the courage to rebuke Trump or even teh US ambassador
that rumoured visit in 2018 looking ever less likely, Obama at Royal wedding & not trump could just tip him over the edge!
Obama not Trump would be amazing.... make it happen, Harry!
I liked this one ...
Former Conservative minister Tim Loughton said if Twitter was "genuine in its commitment to fight hate crime online" it would delete the US President's account.
And [url= https://twitter.com/MrBrendanCox/status/936131798987427840 ]this tweet[/url] from Brendan Cox.
Yeeeshk some of the responses to those tweets. [i]Yik![/i]
And the disinformation/lies/BS that some people seem to have completely swallowed, like [url= https://twitter.com/John011235/status/936155951425638401 ]this guy[/url]:
You have to be joking too, UK is a terrorist hideout. You had more bombings and all kind of jazz in a month than the entire world. What a joke.
Really??!? WTF
What has to happen to get this man out of power?
what would happen if this man were to lose power? a re-election?
Can we have Obama back please? 🙁
This tory government is a ****ing embarrassment, it is acting like a battered wife defending an abusive husband "but the relationship is special". Grow a pair and tell him exactly the kind of scum he is and that he is not welcome.
I don't do Twitter so can someone explain how Trump found these videos in the first place?
Is it a case of 'I see you like KKK, how about a bit of BF'? Did he search for this stuff or does it just drop into his feed?
I doubt trump personally searches for such vile comments to retweet as he has an entire coterie of acolytes only too aware of how to further their own agenda - these are the people who should be called out for leading the USA down the road of 1930's Germany.
[i]I don't do Twitter so can someone explain how Trump found these videos in the first place?[/i]
Maybe he follows that Britain First scumbag. 10s of thousands of people do.
As quick as Trump was to retweet such crap, he could've got an aide to find out whether they were real. I mean, I check stuff is real before posting to a few people on STW, but the President, no such bother. It really is incredible.
(Btw: https://www.snopes.com/video-beating-dutch-boy-crutches/)
You'd think he had a country to [s]f*** up[/s] lead.
he only follows 45 people
one of them is professional right wing troll & shit-stirrer ann coulter, she posted the tweets first and he just followed her.
the rumours are that hes becoming more unhinged and focusing on ever crazier conspiracy theories, including the classics Obama birther thing, his vote number & crowd was bigger than hillary/obama respectively & now saying that his pussy grabbing recording was faked

It's weird, I was only thinking earlier this week, how Trump related news had gone a bit quiet... now all this.
its all gone a bit black mirror tbh
He's always controversial when something big is about to go down that he won't like.
My guess is that Mueller is about to pull someone in.

Im not sure if hes intenionally doing it or hes just losing the plot as his house of cards comes down
Jonathan Pie on fine form.
(WARNING: Many swearings!)
Yep, I like that.
Pie has been a bit off form lately but that's first class ranting 😆
How on earth can lil Kim and Putin now be seen as normal well Thanks to to trump and his tweets, invading Northern Europe on the sly and firing icbms every weekend is now almost not news worthy.
If they let him come to the wedding every copper in the uk will be on overtime.
He knows exactly what he tweets I'm sure and the impact, he still is a nasty toad a white hooded one at that.
Yep, superb rant!
Jonathan Pie is an idiot. Trump hasn't done or said anything remotely racist and using the term Nazi when it doesn't apply simply weakens the argument.
Trump hasn't done or said anything remotely racist
Hah.... oh wait.... you were being serious.... let me laugh even harder....
Arrrrrhahahahahahah
So you wouldn't say that retweeting deliberately misleading videos from the Britain First deputy leader (who is currently facing charges in court), that are clearly intended to stir up hatred towards muslims, qualifies as just a little bit racist?
(and please don't play the "Islam is not a race" card. It is very tired).

I politely disagree.
Even excluding these retweets Trump plays the race hate card whenever he's out of his depth. Or simply sat on the bog I would imagine and bored.
Sort out the NK crisis? Nah, bloody difficult. Stir up some hated as a smoke screen. Dead easy.
He's utterly vile, indefensible.
Retweeting material from a racist group to me would imply some inherent racism in the retweeter. If you don't agree with the initial tweets sentiments, in this case racism, then why retweet it. In somethingion Trump is a racist bawbag.
Everything, absolutely everything about Trump beggars belief, but just as unfathomable are the people that crawl out to defend him. He is shown every day to be utter liar. How unhinged are the defenders of him?
Ive never protested about anything in my life - im quiet happy just bobbing along, but i’ll do whatever it takes to go protest if Trump ever dares show his mug on a state visit.

+1
I've no idea how the "powers that be" have tolerated this fool for so long. An obvious idiot, de stabilising a lot of good work in world relations and US domestic issues.
Lets be honest, Trump has supporters for the following reasons:
1_ They receive a financial benefit from associating themselves with him (check out some of the sums of money people close to Trump are "paid" for pretty non existent services and functions). Which is why most of them are as financially dodgy as he is
2_ They receive a political or social boost from associating themselves with him (Most of his "friends", and i use that word advisedly, are simply using him to further their fame or political standing. Which is why most of them are as immoral, self centered and racist as him.
3_ They are a moron. If you don't fit in to 1_ or 2_ then only reason you would support such a man of poor morals is because you yourself are too stupid to understand what he stands for
to be fair to enfht he finds the views trump supported a bit liberal and lefty snowflake hence his post.
Everyone who is not a hate fuelled racist knows how odious they were.
Can Michelle please stand up and get the opposition to this idiot organised and effective?
This is the position Brexit puts this Country in: We can't go and condemn the President of one of the main countries we are seeking to do a trade deal with. We have to cosy up to the worst leaders in the World.
Jonathan Pie , up there, has got it spot on, except to say I don't think May's polling would go through the roof, but it certainly wouldn't do her any harm. It would at least show she has some backbone.
Trump is a walking, talking virus.
Talking of the Moron. Adversary, Secretary of State Rex Tillerson appears to be the latest (ok, next) to be shown the door ...
‘White House plans to replace secretary of state'
http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-us-canada-42187070
I have no words.
I’ve never protested about anything in my life - im quiet happy just bobbing along, but i’ll do whatever it takes to go protest if Trump ever dares show his mug on a state visit.
As a content middle age bloke from Suffolk(who isnt that keen on Islam or any other religion) I am already practicing my heckling for when this orange **** turns up.
Britain reluctantly defends May against insane fascist
the trouble with protesting Trumps state visit is, to paraphrase Carly Simon, He's so vain he'll probably think we're there to welcome him.
If these videos are fake or the content is so unacceptable how come they are still on Twitter ? Answer they are mild in comparison to much of the sh.t there and Twitter does sweet FA about the vast majority of if.
Anyway Trump is playing to his base which supports him Tweeting this sort of stuff. The fact others react helps him create the “them against us” he is looking for at home.
Rex Tillerson is allegedly toast.
Kryton he won the election, there is no “toleraence” here as such just a respect for the process. As much as everyone is reacting to what he's doing he was the best of two deadful candidates.
No, he wasn't. He got the most votes from the right wing and redneck bunch.
Performance to date shows he's far from a desirable or best leader for the US, there surely is a process for removing such a person before more damage is done.

Because trump generates so much money and air time from twitter they wont touch him ; Twitter care more about publicity[ money and clicks] than right or wrong- hardly an unusual stance for a business. See also Facebook or the DM
You can say shit but swear filter avoidance is the actual offence on here HTH
Do you really want to claim is that the man who was chanting lock her up would be respecting the process if hilary had won with the least votes and the help of the russians?Kryton he won the election, there is no “toleraence” here as such just a respect for the process. As much as everyone is reacting to what he's doing he was the best of two deadful candidates
I also wonder how these redknecks and their supporters [on] here would be reacting if a Muslim president was tweeting links to a group where a senator or MP has been killed by a Muslim extremist chanting their name. I think we would have very different explanations of the events then. Its wrong and they would be appalled if it was that way round
Decent people are appalled by both.
the trouble with protesting Trumps state visit is, to paraphrase Carly Simon, He's so vain he'll probably think we're there to welcome him.
It will certainly boost the demand for free range eggs and out-of-date fruit.
Christ, is Trump still president? I thought he was supposed to have been arrested/resigned/overthrown/imploded by now?
Retweeting material from a racist group to me would imply some inherent racism in the retweeter. If you don't agree with the initial tweets sentiments, in this case racism, then why retweet it.
Do you know what, I think you're right there, at least so much as how being mates with Hezbollah makes you a terrorist and an anti-semite. You know, If you don't agree with their sentiments or policies, then why call them your friends?
Trump hasn't done or said anything remotely racist
Piss-poor trolling from a piss-poor troll.
I think we've scraped the bottom clean out of the barrel now, haven't we?
No, he wasn't. He got the most votes from the right wing and redneck bunch.Performance to date shows he's far from a desirable or best leader for the US, there surely is a process for removing such a person before more damage is done.
Now you put it like that it's not much different to the UK is it?
“It’s weird because until he hit back, we all agreed her weak attempt at a reprimand was as pathetic as everything else she does. But the second Trump had a go, I felt unfamilar patriotism swelling.“Only we’re allowed to slag her off, you citrus prick. She’s shit, but she’s nowhere near as shit as you.”
😆
It really does highlight how spineless Theresa may is
She's just a political punchbag these days, countless calamities and Brexit has left her the but of every bad joke, of course Trump has no qualms about slapping her down

And jambs raises a good point about how Twitter happily allows far right hate peddlers to spread their shit.
Trump's violated the Twitter terms more than once, it's a shame they don't have balls to ban him
Christ, is Trump still president? I thought he was supposed to have been arrested/resigned/overthrown/imploded by now?
I think he's in the same novel position that our own 'leader' is.
That being the pool of talent is shallow, and those that might pick up the batton
are too sensible to want to walk into that mess.
In the meantime it's all going to pot.
May has a long record of public service; you may think her performance has been poor but that's not the point.
By contrast Trump is an odious bigot; as dishonest as his tie is long; self-serving; lying; disreputable 'business man'; a sexual predator; a windbag; draft dodger; thick; ignorant; a bully.
Then there's his bad side.
Don't really follow all of his blatherings on Twitter but I'm guessing it was more anti Islam sentiment.
As much as people want to criticise this I wish they'd get the terminology correct.
Islam is not a race, being anti Islam doesn't infer racism ...i can convert to Islam tomorrow, does my race change to?
If people want to get all shouty and offended because he retweeted anti Islam videos fair enough but let's stop desperately trying to equate a religion to a race in order to make it all seem so much more outrageous.
I grew up in the "Swinging Sixties" when protesting was practically compulsory and I couldn't be arsed over any of the issues of the day, Vietnam being the biggest. However I fully intend to travel the 200 miles to that London to shout myself hoarse in protest at the Orange Abomination and the Maybot, if she's still got her nose up his arse.
Do you know what, I think you're right there, at least so much as how being mates with Hezbollah makes you a terrorist and an anti-semite. You know, If you don't agree with their sentiments or policies, then why call them your friends?
Oh some nice deflection there. Aren't Hezbollah a major political party? Kinda different then isn't it. Other differences: Corbyn apologised for the language he used & he was trying to encourage talks about the peace process. But I'm sure you know that.
I don't think it's so much aniti Islam in the case of trump, I'm no psychologist but he strikes me as the kinda person you could play like a violin if you wanted to.
May could simply publicy say she likes his stance on [insert inane thing] and he'd melt like butter.
He's not an intelligent person.
Cross him though, he's quite wealthy (by accident), and your gonna have a bad day.
Typical bully, really.
deviant if you wish to argue Britain first are not racist then please put forward your argument for detailed analysis
Although definitely not right wing by any means, I often disagree with muxh of the sentiment on stw.
When it comes to trump however I struggle to see how anyone can defend him in any way whatsoever. He has achieved nothing during his presidency, and has continually acted like a child throughout.
The man is utterly pathetic and only a fool can't see that.
I think that is the best view to have as its not even about politics. He is just a petulant man child with odious morals, dubious ethics ;there is nothing to defend or like in this pussy grabbing pseudo racist gobshite.
Its like me trying to defend George Galloway just because he is left wing
