The Next President of the United States

By contrast I googled "Corbyn & Happy People" and found very limited choice

This was about the best on offer...

Sadiq Khan agreed the balloon.
Camden Council removed the graffiti.

Sadiq Khan seemingly launches terror attacks on London, controls UK immigration, and if that isn't enough, has a lucrative sideline making decisions on graffitti removal for Camden Council. 

Why is this picture badged leave.EU? 

[MANTIS01]

No idea about the branding or the accusations levelled against the mayor buddy.

Find this whole subject fascinating though. The council remove some cool art which if anything is quite a compliment to Mr Khan because it's deemed 'contentious', likely to cause offence or an argument. But the girating, mankini-clad mayor flies the balloon which is clearly 'contentious', likely to cause offence or an argument. That's what I'm trying to figure.

So you aren't trying to understand the comment where Sadiq Khan says he believes in free speach given the two examples illustrated? It is pretty hard to get your interpretation of what was causing you confusion from the poster and your two words.   

Trump contradicts himself daily, denies things he said hours before and gets caught lying several times a day.  Khan says he believes in free speach and somebody completely different removes Graffiti, but you put that on the Trump thread.   Why you do that is something I am trying to figure.

Dare say it is possible to find contradictory actions from Khan, it must be near impossibld to speak frequently in public and remain consistent.  This picture doesn't have any deep inner meaning, it is just intended to make the observer think that Khan removed the mankini picture, and hence is a big hypocrite.  Go on, admit it.

Have you any idea why Leave.EU have put there name to this?

Agreed Trump is inconsistent and inconsistency bothers me full stop but I think you're being too subjective. From a consistency point of view we can't credibly believe both actions are right. I'd be really interested to understand Khan's motives for flying the contentious orange baby balloon, especially so if he thinks removing contentious imagery of our political figures is correct. I don't remember hearing him object to it's removal. I'm asking a question not drawing a conclusion. It's on the Trump thread because it was a big orange baby balloon of Trump. That's pretty much it.

No idea about what the branding means, no defence of Trump's terrible inconsistency, no alluding to Khan's wider actions or character. You appear to object that Khan gets accused of all sorts because people interpret/embellish his words in their own way without substance and yet you go ahead and interpret/embellish my words in your own way without substance. Seems kinda inconsistent.

It's *speech mate not speach Think Tighty's canned fruit-hoarding idea is playing on your mind.

The Trump balloon was stupid, childish, insulting. Ok, we get it - I don't think anyone here has disagreed. But you seem to have developed some kind of obsession with it. Can we move on and talk about something else?

Feel free. But you not posting on this thread for a week ain't talking about something else brah.

Incidentally I would say everybody attending the rally disagreed.

I've been a bit busy elsewhere - sorry about that. So thank you for keeping the thread going by posting the same point a dozen times over that period. I'll try to post later about something totally different.

"Everybody attending the rally" - you're kidding. I'm hating that I'm allowing myself to get drawn in, but obviously people who didn't agree with it weren't going to stay home because someone had a silly balloon.

So I noticed a sudden downtick on the share markets this morning, turns out it was Trump saying he was going to tariff $500bn of Chinese goods.  He also said (in the same interview I believe) that he didn't agree with the Fed's recent interest rate policy, which btw is a direct result of his borrow and spend policy.  Both these pre-recorded comments were massive insider trading opportunities.

God knows what he talked to pootin about in private, it has been leaked by the Russians that another referendum in Crimea wasn't dismissed out of hand as it should have been.  He gave credence pootin's wish to interrogate a former US ambassador, before obviously been told that was utterly out of the question.

Trump's problem here isn't that he is an ignorant idiot, it is that he doesn't realise he is an ignorant idiot.

So unfair to say I've only posted about the big orange baby Trump balloon over the last week.

I've also discussed Irish border after-timing, wanker placards, orange skin, Benny Hill, Fawlty Towers, magic logic, Putin love, pumpkin heads and smelly armpits.

Admittedly I've mentioned the big orange baby Trump balloon.

As of today, what percentage of American voters would you say realise he is an ignorant idiot?

[doubleup]

certainly more than 50

[MANTIS01]

wonder what percentage of people would say all politicians are ignorant idiots
