To be honest, you remind me of that meme of a stick-man shouting from his computer to his wife in bed that he couldn't come to bed because someone is wrong on the internet.

:lolol: Nope, I rarely get angry. Apart from what Trump and Putin are doing, the last time I remember getting angry was when Stuart Atwell refed our game at Spurs.

The bottom line for me is that Trump is a revolting scum bag, but honestly I don't think Johnson was an awful lot different. And at the very least, our country certainly facilitated an immoral leader of its own barely 3 years ago. So as much as I can't stand Trump or the ignorant pricks who put him in the White House, I'm afraid we've lost the moral high ground on the matter.
I've said this before, but I honestly think in both cases they were/are more interested in the title of president/prime minister, as opposed to actually doing the work when they got the gig. Which isn't really what you want from your leader. I guess this time around, Trump's main motivation was staying out of jail (or, at least, court), but he's clearly not REALLY arsed about making America great again.

It’s actually MTGA. In his head, America is Trump.

But surely Trump has ALWAYS been great? No-one is greater than him. He's the greatest human or animal that ever walked this earth. One day a guy came up to him – big guy, strong guy, with tears in his eyes – and said "Sir. Sir, you are the Greatest, Mr Trump. No-one is greater than you and no-one knows more about greatness and being great than you".

You are, of course, correct.

That's a lot of sarcasm, given that he was going on about it almost as much as ending wars on day one and getting the price of eggs down!

I know he's full of shit, you know he's full of shit, I guess my real question is when will the penny drop (if at all) with the people who voted for him?
The irony is that Trump doesnt understand sarcasm -or irony.

Remember Trump's first term where he would careen from one wild statement or scandal to the next without pausing for breath in a blitzkrieg approach so that no one could focus on any f the serious shortcomings of his presidency?

I can't work out whether this Vance guy is this term's equivalent or if he's just the political version of Jay from the inbetweeners.

Maybe they're not mutually exclusive options.

Does anyone know when we’ll be able to tell that Amerikkka is great again? Wasn’t sure when it happened under Trump 1.0 and still unsure as to what criteria they are working under in order to achieve said greatness.
I want to know when it was great, and the standard they are trying to get back to?

Of course, it’s rhetorical.
