pongo Posted January 16, 2017 Share Posted January 16, 2017 clearly a loose cannon, but now I'm intrigued to see what will happen - happy to call a spade a spade He'll deny ever having called a spade a spade or that anyone on his team has had any contact with anyone who called a spade a spade.

Tarne Posted January 16, 2017 Share Posted January 16, 2017 Yeah, but as it happens so often, people won't pay attention to it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rmanx Posted January 16, 2017 Share Posted January 16, 2017 He has gathered a pretty strong team around him with a variety of views on the geopolitical situation. I don't see a crew of yes men. Are you being blind on purpose? His crony list is so bulging with self interest and conflicts of interest that its like looking at Dr Evil's Legion of Evil. Oh yeah, and the Clintons are all sweetness and light. Compared to the buffoon yes, yes they were. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rmanx Posted January 16, 2017 Share Posted January 16, 2017 Yeah, but as it happens so often, people won't pay attention to it. Are you kidding? His Twitter follower numbers are through the roof. Not because people agree with his bullshit, but because they want to jump all over it to point out what a clueless moron he is. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr. Sausages Posted January 16, 2017 Share Posted January 16, 2017 (edited) His Twitter follower numbers are through the roof. He's a long way behind the Bieber. I bet that pisses him off. He might be brave enough to take on ISIS, North Korea or China, but I bet he hasn't got the balls to take on the Bieber and his army of beliebers.

Lxxx Posted January 17, 2017 Share Posted January 17, 2017 It is funny how many otherwise seemingly rational people have completely lost their shit over this election. The left have gone totally bonkers. I have friends who are nearly foaming at the mouth over it (including one who did actually get so angry in the pub he got them little white specks of spittle in the corner of the mouth that normally only deranged people get). 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
