And May is equally looking like she is going to sell out the British people as well in terms of not honoring the Brexit result (continued free movement across borders, a massive payoff to the EU and a continuing and growing role in an EU army for the UK).
Reality does exist. Even if Trump can get elected by lying to people it does not in itself change reality.

Same applies with Brexiit. We do need to trade. We have to have agreements, for example, for planes to fly from the UK to another country. Those agreements have to be acceptable to both parties.

So, where are all the f***ing Liberals criticizing the Trump administration, who were only too happy to see the the war monger Hilary Clinton voted in, whilst simultaneously screaming that Trump was a woman hating fascist?

Plastered all over the media, right now, is gushing praise for the war crimes being perpetrated by the Yanks. And what do we get from the Liberal media? Radio silence at best, and gushing praise at worst.

The only people appearing to be making a noise about this right now, are the "basket of deplorables".

If I remember rightly this individual supported trump initially.

There is an interesting question as to whether trumps randomness ie unpredictability will have some effect in terms of the North Korea/China issue.

The Russians thought they might get on better with his regime, but now think not.

His domestic agenda does not seem to be progressing.

I am not persuaded that his change to a less thoughtful and strategic approach to international diplomacy will create a better world.

You display a surprising level of insecurity for someone who claims to be confident in their opinions.

Why?

Seems to be doing fine with me.

The Comey sacking is a big fuss about nothing.

The mainstream press hysteria over Comey is bullshit. As are the accusations to the extent that Trump's dealings with Russia are no more or less than is appropriate or ordinary.

I have scoured pretty much all of the mainstream presss reports and not one has put forward a single shred of evidence. This is entirely a fabrication born of a Washington Post article and is based on "anonymous officials".

Let's just put all of this onto context shall we.

To summarize - the Democrats are blaming Trump for having ties to Russia, and falsely winning the election because Russia is accused of rigging the election to make sure Trump won, by releasing hacked information that actually shows the Democrat's DNC did rig the election, to make sure Hillary won and beat Sanders. Otherwise Hillary would have rightfully won the election if it hadn't been shown she was tied to election rigging by finding the information and releasing it to the public so they knew she rigs elections.

In a completely unrelated story, the person who most likely did release this information as an inside job (in other words, NOT the Russians), was found shot in the back in what is said to be a botched robbery where absolutely nothing was taken. you may be forgiven for not having heard of this person since the mainstream press are maintaining a more or less Radio silence about him. his name was Seth Richards.
