Donald trump agrees that there was Russian interference in the election, but he says it did not influence the outcome of the election. No influence on the outcome because he says so IMO he has exposed his Mr Smart Mouth immaturity.

Impotence? There seems to be an ample supply of ammunition that's been left laying around for opponents of Trump to use against him. And the drip drip of dubious behaviour and susppect friends is doing his reputation no good at all, he can't go on like this forever, especially when the new team in the swamp starts stiffing the dim American voters who cheered this on. |

Trump is called Agent Orange because he chose at times to fake tan himself that idiot colour Completely different from being born a colour If you can't tell the difference between Hilary lying once many years ago and the ongoing intensive lying and apparent illegality that Trump perpetrates, then it's really not worth debating this is it. |

Nope. Give the old USSR its due, it did seek to stay a socialist society( even if it were a sham ) right up until it couldnt pretend anymore. Todays Russia is an uber capitalist oligarchy. It doesnt pretend it exists for workers. |

Ah you forgot that Russia was part of the USSR since the early 1900s and realise that todays Russia is different from the USSR and are backpeddling. Perhaps you are mixing up Putin and (rara ) Rasputin. |

Nope he is being called agent Orange because he is a white man Its not worth debating though. Hillary lied more than once and there is no reason to think that she wouldnt be lying now. Also Obama chose to look like a rusty wing nut..he could have got those ears pinned |

Whatever, it's still a repressive state that needs a thuggish strongman to keep it together and is unlikely to thrive in a meaningful way until all the above changes. |

No matter what anyone else has done, Trump is the newly elected president. He has opened the door for criticism of himself in more ways than one. Criticism (and credit where due) is to be expected in a thread about him. The 'cancelling out' approach is old hat, irrelevant and accomplishes nothing more than muddying the waters. |

No old chappie. History is relevant to what happens today ( something you seem to espouse every time you post about Israel or Islam) so what past presidents have done is quite relevant to what present ones do. I wont respond to your reply because I cannot see any point tbh |

I've been wondering what they will do with an impeached President that has committed high treason. Will he go to Leavenworth for the rest of his life, will be get a lethal injection or will he be spirited away to Moscow, to live out the rest of his life with his Oligarch shareholders? |

Why make such an obviously silly request ? Turning a blind eye to the questionable actions and comments by Trump, is defending him. Perhaps if you really did have an "open mind" you would remember that we live in a free country and are free to make comments. Edited by C-too, Feb 16 2017, 08:46 AM.

Yes, but back to the silly question. What can you do about him not remaining president? It is a relevant question, and I know you like posters to give answers to those asked. Shall I help you out? Zilch, ,Zero, nowt, and that applies to all of us. |

It wasn't just a silly request because, as I had never claimed I could do anything about him "not remaining president", it was also a inappropriate request. A product of your ongoing attempt to divert any comments that give an insight into the reality of the man. |

Not really...''soldiers'' were being basically being recruited in Markets in the North of England..18 to 19 year olds..very poor wages there.so I suppose the prospect of getting £300 a week would have been quite alluring..Watched their funeral processions go by.. |
