On the news today Trump and Infantino were talking.
I noticed that Trump had a new hat with a new slogan
"Trump was right about everything."

The man is unbelievable

He claims to have graduated with Honours from the University of Pennsylvania, and yet his name is not on any of their lists.
It's almost as if he was telling a lie.
And was too stupid to realise he could be found out.

And, Allsorts, he bears a grudge very well, and is famously litigious.

Maremia Mon 17-Aug-26 08:21:10

Those Epstein Files!
Why can't he release them, as he promised the MAGA?

Allsorts

The hold has he on the powerful is the answer.

Very true. And he holds power like a Mafia Don, as they say colloquially ‘he has the goods on people’, either he has bribed them financially or - as with Epstein - he knows some pretty damning stuff about people in a position of influence and if he goes down he makes sure they go down with him.

A good one seen on FB recently, is the back view of a T shirt that reads:

THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN
TRUMP
AND A FLYING PIG
IS THE LETTER ‘F’

I very much doubt that he is stupid. Something else is going on and everyone is too busy ranting to notice. I don't know what he's up to, but he may well be very intelligent. I actually don't think anyone could get to where he is by being totally stupid. Also he's started to do some useful things such as question the vaccines that so many brave and reputable scientists and doctors have been speaking out against for ages, often losing their livelihoods and obviously never being interviewed on the censored mainstream media.

Ssshhhh you’ll get vilified for telling the truth.

Shell1951, I understand that Mr Trump graduated from military college third from the bottom in his class of three hundred plus men.

'They missed!!' 😂

As for making things up Gango, lemmings do not follow one another jumping off a cliff.

What is it that lemmings do then??

They dig holes. However, lemmings can get out of the hole they dug.

Unlike Gango.

I don't admire him in the least, but countless lives lost,he discarded people like they mean nothing after boosting them up the previous week, and yet there he is still making gigantic decisions still president of the USA, to me he's no fool

There are two reason s he's still President.

1) America only has one way to get rid of a President before the end of his term

2) they missed.

Yes but he is still there,and still making money

Fallingstar Sun 16-Aug-26 10:02:32

Netanyahu is clever, and he has played Trump like a fiddle.

Fallingstar Sun 16-Aug-26 09:59:28

Well, for a clever man Trump shoots his mouth off to all and sundry, specifically allies - whom despite his bellyaching he still needs hence his pleas for them to help out with his illegal war - and despite promising his disciples there would be no more money wasted on foreign wars, here we are with a massively expensive illegal war against Iran.
He isn’t clever, not even close.

Maremia Sun 16-Aug-26 08:52:45

Pete Hegseth has wasted billions of dollars of munitions, and the Strait is now closed.

Maremia Sun 16-Aug-26 08:51:07

A clever man would have had the confidence to chose more effective Officials.

Hiding his true intentions?
Making money for himself is his intention, and if GNs are aware of this, it's not really well hidden.

I think the whole world knows what Trump's true intentions are so he's not so clever.
A clever man wouldn't have got himself into the situation he is in now. He is costing the US millions with this war and has depleted their weapon stock.

Personally I think he a very clever man, and a wind up, he has everything he wants,he managed to be president of America, and he throws people off the scent of what he doesn't want seen by causing distractions, he's playing the part of an ignorant person and hiding his true intentions

AGAA4 Sun 16-Aug-26 08:22:59

The Trump bashing as Gango calls it does have a very sound basis.

Mainly the illegal war with Iran that has affected most of the world in some way and achieved nothing apart from creating more terrorists.
The Epstein files? His disgusting treatment of President Zelensky just a few examples of why people justifiably criticise Trump.
