Trumps first address.

GrannyGravy13 Melania carefully angled her head so that he couldn't actually make contact at all.

Let's test it here. Who here voted for remain who is an enthusiastic, positive and optimistic supporter of Trump?

You seem a bit hyper tonight if you don’t mind me saying.

And the environment will be ruined.

Yes because it is all as simplistic as that.
I voted remain, and probably would not do that again, I wouldnt vote Trump but under no circumstances would I have voted for the Democrats who I consider deeply regressive in some areas.

Oh my. I am not the one who is hyper enthusiastic and excited.

But yes, hands up, I am very upset, very scared and very worried. Not about me, mid 70s, had a great life- but for my grandchildren, their generation and the ones to come. VERY upset, yes.

But let's test my 'theory' - why not. Who here is a remainer AND a full and enthusiastic supporter of Trump?

And who here is a staunch Brexiter still, and not a full enthusiastic supporter of Trump?

No harm in testing this, even if a bit anecdotical.

Oh for heavens sake . Your children and grandchildren will be fine. So long as you're not inflicting your thoughts on them.

Do we think there's a US Gransnet where everyone is wailing about Starmer? Or Farage? I very much doubt it.

It's bordering on hysteria and paranoia.

I have answered you up thread, am sorry if it didnt fit your ideas of what boxes people should be in.

Trump wants to put the American flag on Mars - ha,ha,ha,haaaaaaaaa!

I hope he sends Musk to do it in person.

To be fair the world laughed when POTUS Kennedy wanted to put the American Flag on the moon…

It is all deeply depressing... poor America, they are going to be sucked dry by the new oligarchy and then they'll be free to suck us dry too.

I hope I am completely wrong about Trump and that he really does care about the ordinary folk of the US who voted for him.But there is zero evidence for it- I have never seen so many criminals standing in one place pretending.

I found his speech uplifting and inspiring.

The part of the speech where he is going to rename the Gulf of Mexico and Denali ? Are you looking forward to the invasion of Panama Canal ?

Don’t like the man but I do agree with ‘No men in women’s sport’. However taking away women’s rights regarding abortion I don’t agree with.

I agree with a lot of what he says- wokeness has gone mental

And who here is a staunch Brexiter still, and not a full enthusiastic supporter of Trump

Take out the words staunch, full and enthusiastic and I’ll happily hold my hand up.

You really do have a skewed opinion of how and why people vote.

Not that it’s really any of your business.

History is being re-written I see.

Apparently Nancy Pelosi was responsible for Jan 6 th.

Who knew😄

I hope he lives up to his speech. I can see why he won.

What a terribly ignorant comment.

Her grandchildren WILL be fine...As long as they were born into, and stay within a very rigidly defined box.

So if they weren't born colored, stay straight and cis than ya they'll be perfectly fine.

The totally trashed environment and ruined economy will just be an unfortunate consequence everyone will have to deal with as well.

Wonder how many European countries will go ‘far right’ now ?

She refused an offer of 10,000 troops on the streets. Declining their presence certainly helped promote the unrest - which could have been averted or tamped down. Yes, she’s culpable to an extent - Democrat or not.

I can see why people voted for him.

He hasn’t dilly dallied, immediately signing papers to start the ball rolling on his election pledges.

His second term as POTUS will either be everything he has promised and America will flourish or it could be the car crash those in the left are eagerly anticipating.

I do agree with him on a few of his points, no men in women’s sports, only two genders and putting his country first.

On the issue of the Panama Canal, the USA handed over control to Panama, who immediately started giving China preferential treatment and rates. China has a huge say on what goes on around there now.

The whole world seems to be turning right, Nanna.
There is a lot of hysteria around Trump. We should all wait and see the results before freaking out.

I also can see why people voted for him. Watching Starmer to-day I was just bored by the man.
