Hi, hope you don't mind if I crash this thread with occasional funny pics I find of Trump on imgur.com, No? good.

I am beginning to think that Trump is actually a 10-year-old who was fed up with being picked on and ignored by girls at school.
One day, he went to a fairground and discovered a machine that promised to grant wishes: naturally, he wished to be BIG. When he woke up the next day, he was an overweight 70+ moron with orange skin and a whole pipeline full of mental baggage.
Now he's being forced to exist as a child in an adult's world. It was a game, to being with, but he's slowly realising he's missing his sad, pathetic childhood.
Jambalaya when and how do you say Obama banned immigration from Iraq ? The only law or step I can trace is his suspension of the visa waiver programme which obviously is different and had defined exceptions to allow some iraquis to still get visa waiver , and his 6 month monitorium on new visas. At no point in Obama's presidency did immigration from Iraq stop .
I'd love to weep over some facts if you have them.
Random Twitter spats with one of the most successful authors on the planet aside !
I wonder if Trump is getting the hang of things a bit better, he's on the One China ticket now and he's abandoning his travel ban court case in favour of a new option, presumably more vetting rather than an outright ban?
I'm sure there will be plenty of screw ups before the final impeachment tho
Jimmy Jeffries taking Piers Morgan to bits over Trump is worth a watch. Sure someone can linky but on phone and it's awkward, oh and I'm disputing whatever jamby or ninfan last said, not read it but I'm sure it's nonsense.
Watching the news of Trimp and Abe - his lack of understanding Japanese culture was breathtaking. He sure knew how to make Abe look and feel very uncomfortable. Hideous.
Again, you are blindly swallowing a media narrative. Here's the two really greeting each other:
And, just for good measure - here's a [b]real[/b] handshake gone wrong:

You realise that's a fake account, right?
You realise that's not the embarrassing handshake, right?
Yes, yes, you can conclude that from the fact that I commented "Here's the two really greeting each other" as opposed to the "here's the 19second long photo shoot handshake that the lefties are making a big fuss about, because they are desparetly clinging to anything they can to attack him with because they still can't believe they lost"
that the lefties are making a big fuss about, because they are desparetly clinging to anything they can to attack him with because they still can't believe they lost"
Wait until the righties start on him. The Republicans don't like him either.
You realise that's a fake account, right?
I assume everything about trump is fake 😉
As for the handshake thing isn't he just trying to do his domminance thing that he did with May, Abe better watch out, is usually followed by some humiliation at the next press conference where condemning trump's latest policy gaffe becomes damaging...
Again, you are blindly swallowing a media narrative.
Which I guess explains why Trump ignores the mainstream media in favour of the "alternative" media, such as Rupert Murdoch's global media empire.

Welcome to 2017 :
War is Peace
Freedom is Slavery
Ignorance is Strength
Alternative Media is News International.
I can understand why Trump appeals to you so much ninfan, he represents the triumph of dishonesty, lying, and misrepresentation of the facts, all things which over the years you have shown on here to value greatly.
😆
You missed the fact that neither of them really believe what they are saying
You realise that's a fake account, right?
it's fun to troll alt-right swiveled eyed loons.
So on Twitter @realdonaldtrump has 24.6M followers and @potus has 15.2M.
Proof he's more popular as a businessman than as a president.
I hope Trump tries that aggressive ego posturing handshake routine with Putin as i imagine he'll find himself thrown on the floor with his podgy arm twisted behind his back and a knee in the kidneys for good measure.
You realise that's a fake account, right?
Yup, as no verified thingy.
Just fun to dabble in nebulous facts.
Well, it's 100% fact now as I saw it on the internet.
Trump should be presented in association with as many "non-facts" as possible. That's what he is presenting to us.
Well, it's 100% fact now as I saw it on the internet.
Just post tweets from that account every day or so and it'll be fact regardless of how much of a lie. Seems to be how it works.
<In Ninfan first vid> @42 secs -Are all the following camera crew 'tiny' ?
Jambalaya when and how do you say Obama banned immigration from Iraq ?
Wasn't it about the same time as the Bowling Green massacre?
Yes one of Obama's actions was a direct result of the well reported Kentucky incident but that was no ban. Just some extrime vetting of a well defined target group because he knew what was going on.
I just saw on Facebook that Donald Trump's wife is dead inside. Literally.
I see no reason to question this information.
Yep it may be ugly but it can sure cause a few major panics for the enemy if it goes into action. Oh hang on, nobody needs aircraft carrier nowadays when the range is so near that a cruise missile can easily be used to "microwave" the lot. Alternatively the aircraft carrier can use to "petrol" the Japanese whaling and fishing fleets, then see if Japa will turn vegetarian or vegan. 😆Northwind - Member
Ah yes, the dreaded Liaonang, the uglier sister ship of the Admiral Kuznetsov. Its name strikes fear into the hearts of, well, Chinese pilots and engineers mostly
Oh ya, Japan do have a new aircraft carrier, unlike the Chinese 2nd hand carrier, but the question is how many cruise missiles do you need to sink a modern day aircraft carrier. 😛
Wasn't it about the same time as the Bowling Green massacre?
Not a minute goes by where the victims are not in my thoughts. May god bless them and all who sail in them.
Trump was planning to give people attending his inauguration a candle to lit in memory of the victims of the Bowling Green Massacre but due to the huge number of people turning up he had to cancel .

Yep, it might sink in an inconvenient place. Seriously, it's as alarming a prospect as our QE class will be with no planes on

I doubt they'll dare let them out of port with no subs to protect them, aircraft carriers are expensive but that pales into nothing compared to the cost of the fleet needed to support them.
Sunday papers saying since being forced to abandon his visit to parliament & buck palace
Trump plans to go for a UK stadium show in Brum and hide behind a veterans charity like the Poppy Appeal ....
Im sure he will pull the biggest crowd EVEAH!
hide behind a veterans charity like the Poppy Appeal ....
Are there really any charities that would touch him with a barge pole?
Trump related , quite a good spat between Pierce Morgan and JK Rowling .
Hah.
Morgan: “This is why I’ve never read a single word of Harry Potter.”
Rowling: “Because you had a premonition that one day the author would roar with laughter at seeing you called out for your bullshit on live TV?”
Morgan isn't arguing with her, he's arguing with causality 😆
Talking of Piers Morgan on Trump...this made me giggle.
Does contain swears...
Are there really any charities that would touch him with a barge pole?
I'd say so yes. It depends on the charities supporter base and goals. They're not all fluffy genuine altruistic organisations.
Maybe some hard "right" religious US non profit, or something that relies on government grants for income. I'd be interested to see the RBLs reaction if he did try to "hide behind" them.
Top trolling from Alec Baldwin 🙂

Round 2.
Trump administration is really making SNL great again.
Uh oh. I made eye contact with some Breitbart mentalists on facebook. They're really pissed off because the Hamburg airport evacuation refuses to be terrorism related, and the subway gas attack was invented by another right wing terror group, sorry, [i]news outlet.[/i]
Seems like it's not a good idea to be a tourist in [s]Trumpton[/s] Trump's America and seem to be well-off:
https://boingboing.net/2017/02/09/trump-wants-to-reinstate-and-e.html
Civil asset forfeiture is a perfectly foreseeable outcome of the overbroad War on Drugs: it allows the cops to seize your belongings and charge them -- not you! -- with being the proceeds of a crime. Then it's up to you to figure out how to prove that your cash, car, house, or other belongings are innocent, otherwise the cops get to keep your stuff and use it to fund their operations.This is especially useful when it comes to amassing budgets to buy things that the cops don't want to ask for in public: that's why Chicago cops stole millions from mostly poor Chicagoans and blew it on surveillance gear (they did this in LA, too). It's hard to see how there'd be a surveillance gear industry without this legalized theft. The NYPD steals so much through forfeiture that it says just adding it up would break their computers (it's even worse in the Bronx).
It's an irresistible temptation. City attorneys invite the town cops to seminars on maximizing the haul of desirable goods, advising the police to keep a wishlist of cars and other material they'd like to steal, so they can be on the lookout for citizens in possession of same to seize from. It got so bad that the CBC issued advice for Canadian to help them avoid being robbed by American cops while on vacation.
Civil asset forfeiture is a clear abuse of power and authority, it is legalised crime committed by the very people who communities look to for protection, the fact it can happen in a supposedly modern democracy is staggering. But it has been going on a lot longer than Trumps political career.
Looks like a good way to raise funds for things for the [s]mexicans[/s] [s]brown people[/s] immigrants, you know walls, camps, gas chambers etc. Keeps them off the books and away from the eyes of those pesky liberals.
As MSP says, the improper use of civil forfeiture was running rampant under [thanks a lot] Obama.
John Oliver did a piece on it.

We shall just assume he was illegally talking to the Russians about sanctions then.
At least though it will distracct prople from the fact that el'Presidente was discussing national security at dinner
http://www.abc.net.au/news/2017-02-14/donald-trump-mar-a-lago-north-korea/8268042
in public, in front of lots of people with cameras. Still he didn't use an email server did he...

yeah, itd be terrible if his ties to the Putin regime were looked at too closely and one of his most important advisors was so compromised he was forced to resign......
has any president lost someone so senior to scandal after only 4 weeks?
It gets better-would any president be so insane, as to discuss his response to N Korean missile launch with Abe in front of the members of his golf club, even letting them pose with the guy that carries in the Nuclear Codes and posting his pic to facebook?

Is that a screen grab from Sunday night's John Oliver show?
On Monday, White House counsellor Kellyanne Conway said Mr Trump had "full confidence" in Mr Flynn;
ah the dreaded vote of confidence. 😆
Mr Flynn denied that he and Mr Kislyak had discussed US sanctions and Vice-President Mike Pence also denied the claims on his behalf;
look like Mrs Pence is going to be disappointed 😉
In assuming that Flynn will be investigated further
Did he discuss sanctions with Russia earlier
And did any Russian money find is way into Trump's campaign ?
Yep tiny hands mocking the security services coming back to bite him in the ass.
Of course with Flynn gone I suppose that means that Bannon has even more control...
Petraeus? 😆
Also, I'm guessing we're all just swallowing the media narrative again. Sheeple.

His 2 years are nearly up
Yup leaky bucket himself.
I believe several leading republicans are currently deleting tweets about people being careless with classified docs as the waiters were reading most of them at dinner (oh and having all the phone cameras that were pointing at them to light them up)
I see that desperation for a Trade deal
has Trumped sense and we are going to be pimping out the Queen to the Donald, after all....
Im guessing he wont be allowed anywhere near London, wherever he goes its going to be a shambles!
That'd be, uh, interesting. TBH Petraeus would probably have been a good choice if he hadn't taken a shit down his own career.
Flynn had already been edged out of decision making in favour of Bannon , Kushner and the inner circe 'allegedly'
Was it National Security staff leaked the info on Flynn?
Trump really has alienated a lot of people in the secret/civil service and whitehouse staff
coupled with all the embarrassing leaks of his car crash phone calls
His stupidity is costing him greatly

guy on r4 suggesting European Intelligence agencies are being "guarded" with the US Intelligence because they are not sure they can trust the Trump administration!
Sounds fair, he seems to have few morals and no friends (or fear/idea of upsetting people) could quite easily see him having no issues bashing somebody one week and trying to be friends next. Time for her maj to get the big grown up cutlery out.
I'm more worried about his 3 big fans.

American intelligence agencies are being guarded with what they disclose to the Trump administration because they don't trust them...
😯An NSA official told the New York Observer it was holding back some of the "good stuff" from the White House, while one Pentagon worker said: "There's not much the Russians don't know at this point. Since January 20, we’ve assumed that the Kremlin has ears inside the [situation room]."
Moby (yes, that guy) has posted this on his Facebook page:
after spending the weekend talking to friends who work in dc i can safely(well, 'accurately'...) post the following things:1-the russian dossier on trump is real. 100% real. he's being blackmailed by the russian government, not just for being peed
on by russian hookers, but for much more nefarious things.2-the trump administration is in collusion with the russian government, and has been since day one.
3-the trump administration needs a war, most likely with iran. at present they are putting u.s warships off the coast
of iran in the hope that iran will attack one of the ships and give the u.s a pretense for invasion.4-there are right wing plans to get rid of trump. he's a drain on their fundraising and their approval ratings, and the gop and koch
brothers and other u.s right wing groups are planning to get rid of trump.5-intelligence agencies around the world, and here in the u.s, are horrified by the incompetence of the trump administration, and are
working to present information that will lead to high level firings and, ultimately, impeachment.i'm writing these things so that when/if these things happen there will be a public record beforehand.
these are truly baffling and horrifying times, as we have an incompetent president who is essentially owned by a foreign power.
