Good, make him feel like the piece of shit he is, UK.
Good luck, he’s going to be one of the most hated men in the country, and here’s hoping that he’ll get to know that too.
The USA has lost a lot of respect in Europe since Trump has been elected. This is not surprising in the slightest.
can't wait to see how this gibbering hooligan spins this on twitter. HUGE SHOW OF FORCE AGAINST ME. BIG GOV UK AFRAID OF US. SAD!
It needs to be less comprehensible. And something that implies international crisis. UK GOVT/PEOPLE? IS AFRAID OF TRUMP. NOT GOOD. PEOPLE WITH ANGRY SIGNS ATTACK? FREE SPEECH SAD. LETS INVADE?!
What'll most likely occur once trump is booted out of office is a resumption of good relations between Europe and the USA. Most European leaders are intelligent enough to know that this is just a "phase", equitable to a phase a teen experiences.
Hate to break it to you but this is likely not a phase. Trump isn't the problem, it's the symptom, and if you don't do anything to solve those deeply ingrained issues, another Trump will take his place in time.
pullin up my bingo card for whats thrown at his escort
Could, might. Don't know till we get to that point so for now. We'll have to wait and see what kind of figure we will elect or what we got for options.
The democrats haven't learned anything, they will likely just go with Hillary 2.0 while facing a radicalized GOP after the midterms. It's not really a question of choice. Your problem is structural. The "checks and balances" that are supposed to prevent abuse of power from taking place have been demonstrated to be as sturdy as wet toilet paper and politicians more intelligent and ambitious than Trump are taking notes on the sidelines. Even if Trump goes away, his base won't. And this won't change unless the democrats actually do something other than being corporate shills.
America need to have a serious think about what elected this man besides just racist populism. At the time of the election I would have voted Trump as a way of rejecting the current status quo, to bring about ANY change, as Clinton represented just more of the same. Obviously in hindsight this was dumb, but I feel a lot of people voted for him as a kind of protest vote. Let's elect a shithead to illustrate the problems we've currently got. But it says a lot about America when it would rather elect a meme president than have a serious discussion about its problems.
Trump tweets: how's it made? The life of a Trump tweet starts in the Daily Mail headline generator, where scientists combine a series of the algorithm's most high-quality creations to form a rambling, run-on sentence. After this stage is complete, it's off to TranslationParty.com, where the style of the tweet is refined to perfection. Finally, the tweet's spelling is meticulously checked and corrected for inaccuracy. Then the tweet goes off to Twitter for publication.
This just in: place that made a piss poor decision get's high and mighty about another country's piss poor decision.
When our piss-poor decision insults your country, unilaterally imposes trade tariffs on you, and then comes to visit, you can protest it too
Read that entirely in optimistic How It’s Made guy’s voice. But to contribute to the larger discussion, this definitely won’t be the last Trump in the White House if the Democrats don’t stop with this fucking ‘established’ clique. Hillary and everyone like her needs to stop and let the next generation take their place. If not, they will lose again and again until they die of old age.
I don't think even with time passing his base wont go away but it will dwindle, such is how time progresses peoples ideals change so. We can hope for a better future, but people are seeing and saw what trump has done for our country and who knows. Could shape for better or worse. We can just wait and hope honestly.
Man, I dunno. It just feels like people giving Trump all this constant attention are just playing into his hands. What are people actually going to be protesting in the UK? Trump himself? What are they trying to accomplish? People already know that Trump is hated, all I can think this is doing is giving him more attention. I mean, I read the news casually and I can't remember the last time I read a story about a U.S. politician that was not somehow related to Trump. He is the president, and quite a controversial one at that, but it just feels like he's trying his best to constantly be talked about and succeeding. Isn't that kind of how he got so far in the presidential race in the first place, by sucking up all the attention?
The part of his supporters that are capable of changing is long gone, he only has his core base now, those who would never reconsider their stance. They're still a sizeable portion of the population. You can't wait it out. You can't even wait for the older generations to die because the alt right has as much of a grapple on your youth as "traditional values" on those who came before them. There's no "wait and hope". If you just sit there with a thumb up your arse instead of actively solving those issues, it's only going to get worse.
If anything it'll just further entrench his support.
if he keeps visiting countries outside the safety of his police state, you will probably be met with violence at some point cuz he keeps pissing everyone off
The hole that Trump's supporters have dug themselves would put the Mariana Trench to shame. At this point, any further entrenching is quite frankly just a drop in the ocean.
Can you guys keep him? By any means necessary, please?
The police clearly don't want us to
I don’t think anyone does. Hopefully things don’t get too unpleasant there. Just enough to know he’s despised nearly universally, not physically attacked or any damage to propert.
The police are there to arrest him
Cant wait for the mass rioting with rampant looting and assaults in true london fashion. Trump is a fucking chode but as we have seen in the past mass protests in london rarely end well, I hope everyone on fp stays safe during that time. thoughts n prayers
Thoughts n prayers ain't gonna do shit mate.
So do you have any sources on mass protests in London that have ended in violence or looting or are you just pulling that out your ass.
