@LeeHarris Some people have seriously short memories, cast your minds back to within the last 10 years and count at least 4 who were worse

@Piddie74 @aDissentient My Merc 'proper car' takes 5 minutes to fill up with petrol and relieves my wallet of around £70 and does approx 400 miles on a tank full. My Tesla charges overnight at home and costs about £5 it does 170 - 200 miles. Even charging up at a supercharger is £20 - £25.

@ZeekArkham He never drew his weapon. ICE instigated the entire thing. They shot a VA nurse that was helping people knocked down by ICE.

An agent had his gun before they shot him like 10 times.

If you’re with us on this, drop a🖕

[Old Ned @oldneddy]

@RupertLowe10 He has no honour, this was a weasely attempt to ingratiate himself and you swallowed it. Twat.
It is no apology, any bond between our nations is irretrievably broken by the orange buffoon.

You fucking jobsworth. I’ve saved more of your American soldiers than you can ever imagine! I cared about them all and I put my life on the line in order to do so. And it was an honour. How fucking dare you insult them and all that served YOUR nation when u called us. @POTUS

[John Nichol ✈ @JohnNicholRAF]

Long ramble:
I have been mulling if I should comment on President Trump's inane comments about NATO involvement in Afghanistan. Although 35 years ago, during the US-led first Gulf War, I was lying, handcuffed & blindfolded - literally 'shoulder to shoulder' - with a US colleague on a concrete floor in an Iraqi interrogation bunker, I rather feel it should be the current generation who express any anger at the President's ludicrous, demonstrably false utterings. Which is why I earlier shared some posts from others.
But perhaps I will reflect like this - I watched Trump's press conference in the wake of the terrible tragedy when a US helicopter collided with a civilian airliner last January in disbelief. 64 people lost their lives but it seemed to be about him - his expertise, his knowledge, what he thought had happened. Much of what he said was incorrect.
So I realised back then that it was going to be pointless trying to analyse any upcoming word-salads. Everything is clearly about him; his expertise in every subject, his grasp of all situations. His need to say something, anything, to show he is the best, the cleverest, the smartest, the most knowledgeable kid on the block.
The pub-bore, the braggart, the know-it-all, pontificates on anything and everything in the hope of bolstering their own, clearly very low, self-esteem.
I wonder that, in the President's mind, that it doesn't matter if what he says is factually correct? I wonder if he knows, understands, even cares, what is true? He is saying some words, which in his mind, seems to suggest that he's important and people will admire him, laud him. The fact that everyone around him then applauds this character trait, thanking him for his 'leadership' at every turn, just amplifies his desire, his need to continue. He's got want he wants - in his mind - attention, praise, admiration.
So to sum up, trying to analyse Trump's ramblings is like trying to play chess with a pigeon. Somewhat interesting at first, but ultimately, truly pointless and rather frustrating.
To those he has hurt, insulted, vilified, I send you my deepest condolences for your loss, and gratitude for your service.
