@Acekal321 Please work on your grammar. Your education level is showing.

[Rougish @Asklepia]

@Jules31415 @DonaldJTrumpJr You have so warped your worldview with reductive classifications fed to you by your "leaders". Who BTW could care less about you. Donald Trump in the 90's if I wanted to run for President I would chose the Republican party because they will believe anything.

@gurgavin Enough already what an ass, cult leader.

[Rougish @Asklepia]

@gurgavin I see everyone here is a MAGA member.

[Rougish @Asklepia]

@ColonelMark4 @DonaldJTrumpJr You didn't dare. Now you have an authoritarian cult leader and you feel protected.

@RPSizzle @CCastaneda2004 That's not how economies in this day and age work. We even tried it in the early 1900s, and it made the great depression even worse.

@B7Boutique Nobody lives in 90٪ of that space. if you look at where people actually live, it is very different. Feel sorry/not sorry for all the red states that are going to be very short on funds soon.

@ArundelManor @CDLawPC @RsWaugh4444 @RudyGiuliani Rudy is a corrupt and horrible person. I lived through his Mayoral nonsense. Trump is using his power to wreak vengeance. This is what children do.

@GeneralMCNews We need to support them against Russia. I say send them more. Or are we Putins play thing now?

@shivon @elonmusk Oh, the biases in AI are astounding. The made-up data and non-existent studies that have been refrenced by AI, is even more concerning .

@RealJamesWoods Prove it

@PressSec @elonmusk Not by a self appointed self serving narcissist who doesn't even understand how government works. See firing Atomic Energy scientists.

@elonmusk It is called balance of power. Judiciary is responsible for assuring constitutional legality.

[Rougish @Asklepia]

@elonmusk Shut up please.

@RoyLovesAmerica @POTUS guess who actually set this up?? Hint he is orange....

[Rougish @Asklepia]

@RoyLovesAmerica @POTUS Hah as if.

[CALL TO ACTIVISM @CalltoActivism]

A British writer penned the best description of Donald Trump I’ve ever read:

“Why do some British people not like Donald Trump?”

A few things spring to mind. Trump lacks certain qualities which the British traditionally esteem. For instance, he has no class, no charm, no coolness, no credibility, no compassion, no wit, no warmth, no wisdom, no subtlety, no sensitivity, no self-awareness, no humility, no honour and no grace – all qualities, funnily enough, with which his predecessor Mr. Obama was generously blessed. So for us, the stark contrast does rather throw Trump’s limitations into embarrassingly sharp relief.

Plus, we like a laugh. And while Trump may be laughable, he has never once said anything wry, witty or even faintly amusing – not once, ever. I don’t say that rhetorically, I mean it quite literally: not once, not ever. And that fact is particularly disturbing to the British sensibility – for us, to lack humour is almost inhuman. But with Trump, it’s a fact. He doesn’t even seem to understand what a joke is – his idea of a joke is a crass comment, an illiterate insult, a casual act of cruelty.

Trump is a troll. And like all trolls, he is never funny and he never laughs; he only crows or jeers. And scarily, he doesn’t just talk in crude, witless insults – he actually thinks in them. His mind is a simple bot-like algorithm of petty prejudices and knee-jerk nastiness.

There is never any under-layer of irony, complexity, nuance or depth. It’s all surface. Some Americans might see this as refreshingly upfront. Well, we don’t. We see it as having no inner world, no soul. And in Britain we traditionally side with David, not Goliath. All our heroes are plucky underdogs: Robin Hood, Dick Whittington, Oliver Twist. Trump is neither plucky, nor an underdog. He is the exact opposite of that. He’s not even a spoiled rich-boy, or a greedy fat-cat. He’s more a fat white slug. A Jabba the Hutt of privilege.

And worse, he is that most unforgivable of all things to the British: a bully. That is, except when he is among bullies; then he suddenly transforms into a snivelling sidekick instead. There are unspoken rules to this stuff – the Queensberry rules of basic decency – and he breaks them all. He punches downwards – which a gentleman should, would, could never do – and every blow he aims is below the belt. He particularly likes to kick the vulnerable or voiceless – and he kicks them when they are down.

So the fact that a significant minority – perhaps a third – of Americans look at what he does, listen to what he says, and then think ‘Yeah, he seems like my kind of guy’ is a matter of some confusion and no little distress to British people, given that:

• Americans are supposed to be nicer than us, and mostly are.

• You don’t need a particularly keen eye for detail to spot a few flaws in the man.

This last point is what especially confuses and dismays British people, and many other people too; his faults seem pretty bloody hard to miss. After all, it’s impossible to read a single tweet, or hear him speak a sentence or two, without staring deep into the abyss. He turns being artless into an art form; he is a Picasso of pettiness; a Shakespeare of shit. His faults are fractal: even his flaws have flaws, and so on ad infinitum. God knows there have always been stupid people in the world, and plenty of nasty people too. But rarely has stupidity been so nasty, or nastiness so stupid. He makes Nixon look trustworthy and George W look smart. In fact, if Frankenstein decided to make a monster assembled entirely from human flaws – he would make a Trump.

And a remorseful Doctor Frankenstein would clutch out big clumpfuls of hair and scream in anguish: ‘My God… what… have… I… created?' If being a twat was a TV show, Trump would be the boxed set.”
