He wants to close down Twitter in the pursuit of freedom of speech....
Seriously, though, how is he going to get the evangelical message out? Faux News? Not much point there, because only the mentally bereft watch that.

It all a "Deep State" conspiracy stopping him making the manufacturers of US carrot graters, grate again...

Freedom for all American growers of root vegetables...

He and Spode have a lot in common... ;)))

Trouble is Spode was a work of fiction. Trump is horribly real...

Spode had a point. We should ban the import of root vegetables. Not sure about delaying my knees visibly, though....

It seems like Twitter and Facebook might end up with a bit of a headache today.

Is it just me or do I perceive the vids posted recently as Trump assaults?

Regardless, I welcome dissenting views that I can challenge with my own views. I''ve lost some respect for Boac. He is a knee-jerk anti-Trump and no longer belongs in the conversation. Our responsibility is to look at the issues, study, be informed, and make our considered determinations, upon which we will vote for.

I've got an 'Amazon groceries' order in for regular supplies of popcorn. This will be good 'un! :)) He didn't like this one either

It's so funny to see Chumpsters getting upset about people replaying the ****'s speeches verbatim and unedited. =))

The arsehole says and writes such stoopid gobshite that quoting him verbatim really is a form of insult.

What I don't understand is how he's going to get the BS out without Twatter? Is it to be just Faux News, in which case................. What will he do when Twatter move their servers out of California and Atlanta? Declare war on whichever country steps up to take them?

He COULD actually try to take complete control of the internet, although that might look a bit like................

AL1:
"“This is an invitation to move to Germany!” Thomas Jarzombek, Berlin’s point person for the startup economy, tweeted on Thursday.

“Here you are free to criticize the government as well as to fight fake news. We have a great startup and tech ecosystem, your company would be a perfect fit and I will open any doors for you!”


I think Mutti would get a secret kick out of that.................

Weibo could set up an English language subsidiary overnight.

Chump could spout his ***** on that forum to his heart's content and the Chinks wouldn't censor him because everything he says simply shows what a complete twat he is.

I think of the unwashed masses here who can only press their snotty noses up against the glass while we Americans (welcome formally soon to those so engaged in joining us legally! Despite the PITA that the process is. You respected our law in order to join us voluntarily) who will decide who we want in the White House for the next four years debate, and unfortunately, insult the other side too often (myself included in that).

And then I remember that the Democrat candidate is Joe Biden.



And I laugh and laugh...
What's his plan? A Russian doesn't take a dump without a plan.

And still they pick the worst of the candidates for national suicide.

Remember Shrub?

Remember that lil Greek prick?

Remember that guy who's name and identifying features even I can't remember?

Remember that B movie actor?


They sure do pick 'em, but not for their brains.
