How low can he sink?

When I think he has reached the bottom he always manages to find somewhere lower.

He is incapable of decency and integrity.

We have a thread specifically running on this already in news and politics

"Trump as Pope"

If this is true and not some sort of press beat up he should be thoroughly ashamed of himself.

He'll keep sinking until he reaches the bottom...

He has the right name !
He’s a flipping, disrespectful idiot (and flipping is not the word I would normally use )

It’s a meme doing the rounds (while there’s no Pope).
“I could be a great Pope”.
I got one the day before yesterday - it was my sister’s dog wearing the mitre and vestments.

Not funny.

Oh dear, That memo sounds quite awful. Hope I don't get sight of it.

I know many people profess to be atheist now, but is there no respect for other people's religions?

Well I’m not religious so it didn’t offend me. Each to their own I can understand that. And for those who might be tempted to say “have respect for the office”…. well Sadiq Khan allowed the orange baby in a nappy balloon over London during Trump’s visit here, remember? 🤷‍♀️

When I saw it my immediate thought was that it was about pushing the boundaries of free speech.

I don't actually like it but it doesn't offend me. Some religious ideas do offend me.

I am a humanist, but I know enough not to make fun of what for many people on this planet is fundamental to their way of life.

Utterly vulgar and showing such ignorance - made 1000 times worse because he is the leader of a country which should know better.

Countries don't know anything, ww.

I agree it's vulgar.

Hi Countess ,
I'm really glad that you also feel strongly enough to begin a thread on the disgusting behaviour of Trump .
Mine is on News .

Why shouldn't one make fun of what may be 'fundamental' to someone's way of life but which one thinks is ridiculous?

Life of Brian, anyone?

You are talking about the president of the USA for goodness sake.

Imagine any other leader in the world who would do such a thing!

Integrity and standards!

The man is seriously deranged and he's getting more and more outrageous. Someone close to him needs reign him in, surely his daughter Ivanka must be squirming at his distateful behaviour?

That's funny!
A bit like Larry the Cat was portrayed as the next PM.

Personally I wouldn't choose to see Trump in religious attire. It's not a good look.

Just so.

The outpourings of outrage are really quite amusing, especially as Trump can't do anything without outraging half the world. I think people just like being outraged and expressing it.

Trump joined in with this viral meme.
He didn’t start it. It’s ’doing the rounds’.
Perhaps he ought not to have considering his position as POTUS. Bad judgement but other than that I’m not offended.

What does offend me are some of the practices enforced by religious groups. Misogyny on steroids.

I won’t go into them on this thread but we all know who they are.

I agree with you Baggs on this.
‘Trump is BAD … whatever he does’ bandwagon.

And you could see the funny side too escaped of my sister’s dog’s face under the mitre!

Yes, just look what is happening in the USA - certainly misogyny on steroids.
