It's hilarious to that people still believe that trump is a good businessman:
- He had to declare bankruptcy SIX times, including for a casino. A CASINO!!!!
- He paid Stormy Daniels $130,000 so that nobody would know he had sex with her. NOW WE ALL KNOW.
- He paid an "expert" witness $877,000 to testify in the civil fraud trial where he is accused of overvaluing his assets. The guy testified "The value of Donald trump's triplex was inflated."
- He inherited a thriving, humming economy from President Obama and left it with 3 million FEWER jobs than it had at his inauguration, the absolute WORST jobs President in American history.
And people want that titanic, clueless clod to run the United States economy?
NO THANK YOU.
British Writer Pens The Best Description Of Trump I’ve 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.”

1. Brexit means Brexit
2. Put 3 Brexiters in a room, and they will emerge with 4 versions of Brexit.
3. The 2016 referendum represents the largest democratic mandate ever. It just does, ok. (The turnout in the Scottish referendum and in many past GEs, and the total number of votes cast in the 1992 GE don't count.)
4. 17.4 million people represent a majority of an electorate of 46,500,001, and of a population of 65 million.

16. The less you understand Brexit, the more you are obliged to talk about it in military terms.
17. Pointing out that demographic changes since the referendum favour Remain is exactly the same as wishing old people dead. Heck, why not just go the whole hog and kill them yourself?

19. The EU are brutish bullies who do nothing but boss us around, and dictate terms.

21. Every time you deny Brexit, a unicorn dies. Murderer!
22. International law is more of a suggestion.
