US Election & Presidency

I don't see the issue there. It's just the sort of naff "make your own" product that Moonpig or other companies do, or which can be made with simple enough computer programs.

Wash Post presenting it with the whole "but it's pretend" seem OTT.

His taste in doing it is another matter, but it's only a bit of fun (this time).

^ You can't put it up all around your businesses pretending its real. If he'd put it in the loo at the white house - that's a joke. But not if he had knowledge of it this way... He's the freaking president of America ffs, its not Joe Blogg's stag party shot mocked up for a laugh.

Small beer, though. I mean, compared to this:

Quote:The Trump administration is preparing to stop supplying weapons to ethnic Kurdish fighters in Syria, the White House acknowledged Friday, a move reflecting renewed focus on furthering a political settlement to the civil war there and countering Iranian influence now that the Islamic State caliphate is largely vanquished.

Turkey have leaned on the US, and now with so-called IS being supposedly stuffed, it's back to Iran-bashing.

Or maybe Erdogan has fake Time covers on his walls too?

I never claimed otherwise. That's why I said big or small at the start of the post. I think it cuts to the character of the man and his deeply estranged relationship with the truth. Sometimes the litte things are just as telling I think.

...Maybe he does.

I just hope that somewhere out there is someone with a pin big enough to prick the leathery orange hide that contains his bloated ego and make him fizzle off into the distance where he will remain in a crinkled formless heap until the end of time. I think though that a bullet (either real, legal or political) rather than a pin might be required to effect this

Trump attacked CNN again basically saying they make fake news & represent America badly.

CNN responded basically saying our job is not to represent America..yours is

Trump has a long history about Time Front covers which he obsesses about. In addition to claiming yesterday that he had passed up the Time Person of the Year for 2017 (which Time Magazine have firmly denied) and having a fake Person of the Year front cover hanging in at least 5 of his golf clubs he has also previously claimed that he holds the record for most front covers. Well he doesn't - that honour is held by Richard Nixon. The good news for dear Donald is that if his Presidency continues on it's current track he will probably take the record - for all the wrong reasons

I did read Time magazine for a while, many years ago. I've had better ideas

Are you possibly suggesting that this Russian thing could turn out to Trump's 'Watergate'?
