    You could be confident of that if he released his tax returns

    He didn't. The man is a billionaire. Some of his businesses have failed but he's been very successful overall.

    The man's a billionaire in the his head and the press. He's a conman who's been bought and sold for years because of his never ending failures. His failure to release his tax returns which are most likely fantasy anyway should be enough to make even his most ardent supporter query why.
    I'd love to get a look at them and the backup to them. It would be an eye opener.

    Can you point out where exactly I said one of his achievements hasn't happened?


    Thanks! :)

    The situation North Korea is no further than it was. Several Trump aides tried to stop him from bragging about it as it has literally happened many times before with Kim and his his father. Pompeo trip was cancelled why?

    So, you're not going to try point out where I said it hasn't happened?

    No further than it was, so North Korea are still actively testing to see how far they can shoot rockets?

    Happened many times before? Didn't realize other US presidents met with North Korea's leader to discuss this.

    Many reason's have been given for cancelling the Pompeo trip, such as slow insufficient progress regarding denuclearizing or other reports saying they are continuing the develop nuclear weapons. Unfortunately, only time will tell, but I shouldn't really need to explain that to an adult.

    Because anyone who hasn't been conned by Trump is clearly being deceived by the FAKE NEWS, lugenpresse, mainstream media. It's the only possible explanation.

    For real news, you should check out infowars, the daily caller and Fox but don't listen to Smith or Wallace. If you want to keep up to speed with Killary's past crimes, be sure to check out Hannity and Carlson.

    A homeless crisis, a health care system really struggling and I bet you get more protests about the visit of the US President than any of those things I mentioned. Irish people just let their own politicians **** them and they can actually do something about it by getting rid of the douchebags who govern the place. But Trump comes along and lazy people all of a sudden have a get up and go about them.

    Essentially your argument boils down to "look over there". That seems to be a common trend with those supporting Trump. I suppose "but homeless, but healthcare" at least gives us some variation on "but Obama, but Hillary" though.

    Don't look at me for that as I am against mandatory coalition as it doesn't work. So I would agree with you.

    Labour and the Greens will protest at this under the banner Democracy and Decency.

    The non-militant left really is weak here.

    I'm inferring from your posts that you follow the mainstream media. Perhaps I'm wrong though. In which case I'd love you to correct me.

    Top advisors in the WH have decided to not carry out certain orders from Trump because he is so stupid.

    Their only role now is to protect the country from an idiot.

    And they call him dumb, they call him stupid openly.

    But MAGA guys think he is smart.

    Who to believe?

    The right to protest is a cornerstone of any true democracy, some people are oblivious to understanding basic political principles ...The irony is all yours.

    I think you need a better dictionary if you think protesting a "democratically" elected president is ironic.

    It seems to provoke a bizarre amount of outrage that people will be exercising their democratic right to protest.
