Meanwhile those who live in the real world went to work today. Bunch of scruffy lazy arse scumbags, it's just embarrassing. Do they not realise Trump was elected by his people?

It is very embarrassing.

Well whatever, I read the Daily Mail and vote Conservative so I like Trump. I suspect many in England probably do agree with his views on immigration but wouldn't dare say it for fear of being branded 'racist'. We aren't as 'right on' in this country as we are led to believe, we have a 'nasty' Conservative govn and we voted 'leave'

You know that he got less votes than Hilary Clinton, right?

Yes, the State system is as strange as our First Past the Post system.


It does make me laugh when people say protestors are all scruffy lazy arse scumbags. As if every single person works Mon-Fri, 9-5. It shows they don't have a grip on reality.

Most of them are, you can tell from when they are interviewed. Usually some scruffy bloke with a beard and a ponytail who is doubtless studying for a 'degree in sociology' and some bird who is equally scruffy who is into 'holistic healing' or some such rubbish.

Just me, or is anyone else getting confused about which are the spoof accounts on NSC. I don't know if I should feel "whooshed" by some of these posts, or if they're serious.

25,000 people and you can tell from when they are interviewed. There's nothing like a good generalisation, and that is nothing like a good generalisation.

Yes, I did wonder.

Why would it be breaking the law? Freedom to protest. You can protest about Islam without it being racial you know.

So, what sort of balloon are you suggesting as a protest?

And it doesn't need to be racial. The laws cover religion. As you know.

As for being fairly elected by his people, today 12 Russian intelligence officers have been indicted for hacking Democrats emails.

I've never understood that argument. How does the fact that the russians stole and leaked democratic party emails change the fact that Donald Trump was democratically elected?

To the extent that the release of democratic party emails may have affected the outcome of the election, the democrats didn't suffer because their emails got leaked. They suffered because of what those leaks revealed. If the content of the emails caused damage to the democratic party surely they have only themselves to blame, but more importantly why would that bring the integrity of the election into question?

The release of the emails gave the voter more information to go on, how can you view that as compromising the integrity of an election? Lies and concealment I could easily understand as being detrimental to the integrity of an election. But disclosure? How could that ever be detrimental to the process? Can you untangle that one for me?

No, I can't. I'll leave that to the US courts.

The courts may well find the Russians involved guilty of crimes. What they won't find is that because those crimes took place Donald Trump wasn't democratically elected, which is what you implied.

If you were Donald Trump and you had big decision to make - who would you chose?

Fatima Manji off Channel 4 News or Nadiya Hussain off Great British Bake Off?

I have said Donald Trump is suffering from dementia for a few months now. It seems Professor Brian Cox thinks so too. Trump is rambling and even goes off at a tangent when talking about Brexit, referring to Wisconsin.

When he was first asked about Brexit just after it happened he didn’t appear to even know what it was. I don’t think he has done much research and probably still doesn’t actually know what it is hence the rambling
