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

Have to be quite low, I'd imagine.

I'm one, and even I know that they're definitely not that

Fair enough, put another way, what percentage of politicians are seen as inspirational leaders?

Even lower, at a guess.

Heh, where does he find the energy?

I've been meaning to mention something I watched a couple of months ago and since Trump, with his latest threats, and the US & UK, generally, keep demonising Iran it feels like a good time to mention it.

It's a documentary called American Coup that is available on Prime.

My knowledge of Iran was/is fairly limited and dominated by the rhetoric around the time the Shah was deposed and Khomeini took over in 79 and the mainstream news since.

I found it really interesting to learn more about the root of the problems between Iran and the West - fascinating doc anyway and worth an hour and a half of anyone's time with a passing interest in global politics

He is the ultimate keyboard warrior.

Possibly born on Sept.10th too.

Meh, Trump had affair with semi-attractive female.

Yet said semi-attractive female sold the 'story' to magazine for $150k and said she was 'tricked' because the story wasn't published to the ruination of her victim

Lawyer in trusted position taped confidential conversation with client, police seized taped confidential conversation and it's insta all over the news

Appears to be some low acts in the above list but Trump having relations with a semi-attractive female and chucking her a bag of cash doesn't seem the worst.

Not as bad as "I did not have sexual relations with that woman" after receiving bj under the white house desk.

Trump haters need to do better than this to get me swooning with abject faux horror/disgust.

So he didn't come first the worstness competition on this particular occasion and that goes in the plus column? Well done him.

Exactly.

That's before we even start on Obama with his feet on the desk, and some of those suits.

Clinton's ratings went up after his bj in the workplace and the lying to public. Must admit he went up in my book as well.

Just get confused if I now need to think negative thoughts here for something less serious. Sadly must admit he's gone up in my book in exact same way.

Consistency.

It appears that not only is he a keyboard warrior but also a troll.

Cheers Ralph, gonna have nightmares now.

New Quinnipiac poll: American voters believe 51 – 35 percent “that the Russian government has compromising information about President Trump.”

[TightEnd]

A president who knows nothing about economics started a trade war which hurt farmers so he put them on welfare with money (£12bn) he's borrowing from the countries he started the trade war with!

So instead of PROFITING off the sale of American food to China, Trump's trade policy has the United States PAYING INTEREST to China while US farmers become dependent on the government because they aren't SELLING food to China.
