Only outcome I see coming out of this present debacle is the old "them or us" - GOP v Dems will swing to America v Rest of the world. The Republicans, Tea party sector and Project 25 have discovered a champion in Mr T who can really rally the troops, stir up the base. Now it's the whole rest of the world that's the cause of all their ills, not just the Dems and poor old Joe. Very difficult to see it ending well for anybody.

If you will be so good as to humour me in your adoration of your idol. Could you please refrain from prefacing your posts with that declaration of love for him. We on this island are watching our pension pots - those of us lucky enough to have them, be they ever so small - shrinking before our eyes due to the antics of your hero. And please remember that this is an Irish forum, not an organ of the Red or Blue side of American politics.

Glad I'm retired and out of the rat race but Trump will enrich himself. Americans were warned but elected him anyway.

Since I'm not the only one that brings up Trump, Biden, American Politics, etc I'll assume you're crying because I'm not singing your tune. The person/people that monitor this forum seem fine with my posts so again quit your crying and learn to tolerate people that don't agree with you.

Truth hurts, doesn't it, means I got at you, and again, at almost eighty, these old eyes don't have a lot of moisture left. Can't say I'd expect anything other than an ignorant, uneducated, Trumpish, bullying retort from you anyway. So, trot along now, like a good little boy, enjoy the moment. It won't last. . ( hope my spelling and grammar are ok ).

Ha ha ha. So you're Trump's age. Fair play to you. I'll continue to post and I hope you will too. Variety is the spice of life.

Spot on. Same as the people in this country.
You reap what you sow.
