    The priest had a bad day at the office.

    Tbh im non pushed either way by trump (think its a waste of state reaources for what isnt a proper state visit and he should be billed for it)



    Preist and church have always been corrupt here and should be wound up and a state religion launched for those who feel need for spirtiual guidence

    Imagine letting politics destroy your mental health like this.

    Have they no jobs or hobbies or what?

    A reaction like that shows that woman had problems way before Trump came to power.

    The leftist media has done a great job of brainwashing so many. You look at RTE, or CNN so on, their whole agenda is anti Trump and enough of the simply people will lap it up and believe it.

    ''Trump is a racist''

    He actually has a lot of support from African Americans. Trump’s approval rating among blacks sits at 12 percent, four percentage points higher than the eight percent of black Americans who voted for Trump in 2016. He put a lot of black Americans back to work, something they'll remember in 2020. He signed an executive order establishing an Opportunity and Revitalization Council with the aim of creating economic opportunity zones in distressed communities, most of which are populated by African Americans.

    ''Trump hates the environment''
    But it's actually Europe that produces more CO2 emissions than the US does. Ireland forever fails to meets it's targets, and they couldn't give a feck either. Trump hasn't set out to declare war on the environment, he just got rid of a lot of the red tape stopping businesses from breaking ground on new projects.

    ''Trump hates women''
    He signed two executive orders aimed at supporting women in STEM fields, ''he said empowering and promoting women in business is an absolute priority for this administration because I know how crucial women are as job creators, role models, and leaders all throughout our communities.''

    The leftist media are brainwashing millions, and creating sticks to beat Trump with. It's pretty incredible how far the US has come under Trump. Yea he's a straight shooter and takes no prisoners, but he's no fool. But the media jump on every slip of the tongue, like yesterday.
    '' i know you have issues with your wall,,, ehhh border '' he meant border, but media runs story that Trump thinks we have a wall between north and south. This is the brainwashing that is going on constantly against him. No US President has had to put up with such constant negative media.

    The problem for the media is ordinary people are not as stupid as the media types like to think they are. They've never had any interest in addressing the reasons that meant many ordinary people had to vote for Trump. The people that vote for Trump don't trust him either, but they know he's much more trustworthy and honest than his opposition, and the media types telling them what opinions they are allowed/not allowed to have on every subject. The more protests and personal attacks made against him, the more likely he's going to be re-elected.

    Where do you work where you have to give a reason for taking a day off.

    If I take a day off work it'll be a day deducted from my annual hoildays. Now I don't know about you or them muppets but I would be using a day off for better fcking things than walking around a street waving a stick with a board on top of it saying 'Fck Trump' or something.

    yes of course he is, but you're missing the point, and the reason he got elected is he is not as bad or devious as the other arseholes and their spin doctors. People voted him in with their middle finger.

    The two people I know at the protest are both employed. My aunt who is a teacher and my mother who is a nurse with special needs pstudents. I would not describe either as losers.

    You sound like four year olds. Losers, unemployed. People have the right to protest. Grow up.

    Yes but you used a figure of 12 % to say he is not a racist. 12 % is terrible.

    He clearly is racist against mexicans.

    Not sure he hates, thinks he sees them as inferior beings.
    Megyn Kelly Has ‘Blood Coming Out of Her Wherever’

    Also
    Mr. Trump has accused women of having “fat, ugly” faces and of repelling voters because of their looks. He called one woman a “crazed, crying lowlife” and said another was a “dog” who had the “face of a pig.” He said Hillary Clinton’s bathroom break during a 2015 presidential debate was “too disgusting” to talk about. He has repeatedly mocked women for being overweight.

    I love this idea of discounting everything he has said and done because someone other than Fox has published it.

    They should protest without forcing buses to be rerouted. The freedom to protest shouldnt come with the right to interfere with other peoples freedoms either.
