That political discussion with occasional humour thread

Present company excluded! :grin:

(Otherwise, a very true observation.)

Just seen the wonderfully descriptive phrase ‘Musk-Trumpery’ used in an article about the lies, smears and misinformation used by said people in the media. Well, I found it amusing.

Trump’s inauguration portrait pretty well broadcasts what people can expect

No humour here.

Forbidding. Is this how he wants to portray what intends to do to world politics?

He looks as if he’s had a stroke, and as usual the makeup is incongruous. He has calmed down the hair though; I wonder how much of it is real. As that’s how he judges people I have no qualms emitting a superficial appearance-based opinion.

No, I think that’s his “means business” look.

I hope that the USA is happy with its choice.

That looks like a poster for a low-budget student remake of a Stephen King horror movie.

It is a comb over though, isn’t it? His natural parting is on the left but it is combed forward from the back towards the parting, also you can see the pink of his skin through the thin strands.

A very strange person but if people, and I mean foreigners, wouldn’t suck up to him he is not in the least dangerous (unless he ‘pushes’ a certain button but that is open to any megolamaniac from at least 10 different countries), and should be ignored as far as is possible. I really do hope he gets on well with Mandelson though, one of my other least favourite people, until they cancel each other out in recriminations. :rofl:
