    And before Chameleon or Cartman leaps in to claim there no proof of that, here's the video. May god have mercy on your brain cells. Suspect the Trump fan base will love it.

    Is that video made by Trump or is it a "fan edit" kind of thing?

    It was originally supposed to air at the Republican convention in 2012. So entirely real.

    I don't know if "Sure, I said most of the things but not the worst one" is the best approach here. It shows massive contempt for all those loyal defenders who put their credibility on the line insisting that Dear Leader would never do such a thing despite him doing it on

    Best line from the Fox reporter: "My sources are unimpeachable."

    Democrats / the left really scraping the barrel with this Trump doesn't care about Veterans nonsense. Sure they tried it a few years ago when politically motivated prosecutors harassed him over his charity work and thy then misrepresented the court's findings to make him look like a thief when in reality he had been raising money for vets over the years.

    The truth, as ever, is far different and while of course Trump has said a few ill advised things about McCain and Obama with regards to war and the military, it's always been quite clear he has more respect in his little finger for the military than either of those men had in their whole body and yes I am aware of McCain's service.

    Thats almost as bad as slavery, barbaric.

    And before anyone starts i dont mean specifically black american slavery, 100% taxation is literally slavery.

    Im pleased to see how many people can see past their own views to see how Raegan Was an admirable character.

    Definitely was the greatest US president in my book. We could use another Raegan.

    Just saying he was great isn't a debate. I laid out quite clearly why I don't like him. What was so great about him in your opinion?

    If he respects them, why did he call them losers? Because he definitely did.

    Deregulation , lowering of taxes, embracing to the furthest extent thats realistic the free market, tough on crime , oversaw the end of the soviet union and aiding freedom being brought about from the shackles of oppression, fiercely anti communist, his second term he was only something like 1000 votes shy in one state from having every single state go red,

    A well loved president who truly embodied allowing the american dream to flourish for the small business owner.

    I just had to post this with insane Hillary Clinton rambling on about Russia. Her husbands facial expressions though :D:D

    Net Zero means we are paying for the destruction of our economy and society in pursuit of an unachievable and pointless policy.

    Got anything actually, truly, new to say? Keep the jokes to a jokes thread.

    What could be more respectful to troops than bringing them home to their family's. The left cannot stand that he is the PEACE PRESIDENT. Any old crap to smear him, nobody really believes it.

    Te Republicans/Right had an absolute meltdown when Obama had the temerity to salute a marine while holding a coffee cup



    But Trump describes American soldiers killed fighting the Nazis as "losers and suckers" and his zealots jump to his defence lol.

    TDS is alive and well in you all.

    No US president now or ever cares about US troops.

    Top marginal rate.


    In today's dollars, Eisenhower's 91% rate would kick in only on income earned over $3.5m.

    Every tax above 49.9% is closer to slavery than the free market, even if it kicked in at a billion 91% is barbaric and oppressive.

    I find that hysterically over the top.


    The free market wasn't gonna build the Interstate Highway System.

    That story about him hiring an Obama lookalike and then "firing" him is one of the saddest things I think I've ever read about Trump. And that's saying something.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 12,262 ✭✭✭✭Rjd2


    No US president now or ever cares about US troops.

    Agreed.


    Trump is an abomination, and he has been way to hawkish for my liking, but America needs to have a serious grown up debate about the American military and how they are sent to pointless wars which never end.

    The most concerning element of Biden for me is his foreign policy, the man is cheered on by the architects of the Iraq war and looks like he will be surrounded by hawks like Rice.

    Obama we can agree was a much better president than the current yoke, but his biggest flaw was his hawkish leanings. Luckily for him mainstream media don't give a **** about foreign wars whatsoever.

    The current story about what Trump said or didn't about the troops can be put to bed once for all once one of those people who were in the room come forward and tell their story. Then even the most fanatical Trumper can't deny it.

    Why none haven't though is a mystery,,,their is nothing to lose,,,, the person would swim in money if they did, MSNBC slots galore and probable book deal *lol at the "libs" who bought Bolton's book).

    Your right, you do have to laugh.

    Imagine being so sad, pathetic, and have such a fragile ego that you hire a lookalike of someone you don't like and make a video of yourself "firing" them just to help you live out a deluded fantasy to make yourself feel better.

    The whole world is yet again laughing at Trump and his childish antics.

    What do you think of the multiple racist remarks?

    Wow. What can you say to that?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,343 ✭✭✭dwayneshintzy


    Trump has more respect for the military than John McCain did!

    That is absolutely ludicrous on its face. Just about the most ludicrous comment to come out of this thread....

    Oh, he "definitely" did, did he?

    Not a chance you'd so easily believe Biden had done/said something on such scant evidence and so why the philosophical difference when it's Trump, eh? Rhetorical question of course as we know why.

    Eh, there's footage of Obama doing what he did. All you have here is the word of disgruntled detractors, yet again. I mean how many times do you people have to face plant after believing utter bs said about Trump before you refrain from going all in on it? Well, there isn't amount as you won't stop is the answer as it is never about any of you actually believing nonsense like Trump's an agent of the Kremlin, or in the existence of pee pee tapes, or that Don Jnr had advance access to Wiki leaks, or that Trump bribed Zelensky etc etc etc, it's all about inflicting damage, has been since day one.

    the perfect picture to summarise the trump presidency.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 23,032 ✭✭✭✭Tell me how


    Try and have a sense of humor

    You think this is the sort of thing, the holder of the most powerful office in the world should be doing?
    That it in any way can be passed of like it was motivated in being funny?

    It's yet another sign of the inferiority Trump feels when comparing himself to Obama.

    If this happened in North Korea, US Networks would be talking about how backward they are over there.

    Now, this is funny: (from that article)
    The figurines that caught Trump’s eye found a new home on the fireplace mantel in the Oval Office. Depicting Greek gods, they date to the early 20th century and were made by Neapolitan artist Luigi Avolio, who was trying to pass them off as sculptures from the 16th or 17th centuries, according to London-based art dealer Patricia Wengraf.

    Portrait Gallery
    In an “Antiques Roadshow” moment, Wengraf described the figurines as “20th century fakes of wannabe 17th century sculptures,” and of little value.
