    Dumps meltdown with Schumer and Pelosi yesterday was epic even by his own standards, "refusing to do any more work till they stop investigating Donald Trump, probably the most transparent president in history, I don't do cover ups as I'm sure the assembled press will agree"
    In his own words.
    So, the President has gone on strike :?:
    Strange times indeed...
    The above may be fact, or fiction, I may be serious, I may be jesting.
    I am not sure. You have no chance.

    Amazingly this was his uncle:
    John George Trump (August 21, 1907 – February 21, 1985) was an American electrical engineer, inventor, and physicist. A professor at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology from 1936 to 1973, he was a recipient of U.S. President Ronald Reagan's National Medal of Science and a member of the National Academy of Engineering. John Trump was noted for developing rotational radiation therapy. Together with Robert J. Van de Graaff, he developed one of the first million-volt X-ray generators. He was the paternal uncle of Donald Trump, who would later go on to become [ed. It's too early to say]

    So Donny is the runt of the Trump litter.

    Mueller to speak for first time in 15 mins (3pm) on report, should be interesting.. if not why bother!
    All lies and jest..still a man hears what he wants to hear and disregards the rest....

    Possibly ordered by Barr to do so, and tow the DOJ line, so that Barr can claim this is Mueller's final word on his report and insist there is then no reason for Mueller to testify to any committee.

    Let's hope not but the set up is reminiscent of Barr's presser.

    Reading between the lines saying, a sitting president can't be indicted, hands were tied, it has to go to congress to go further it's outside of justice systems remit.

    @realDonaldTrump

    Nothing changes from the Mueller Report. There was insufficient evidence and therefore, in our Country, a person is innocent. The case is closed! Thank you.

    Did he just say I got away with it because of insufficient evidence?

    A pretty normal day in the Western world; admit Russia helped get you elected whilst your staff sought to hide a warship because you don't like Americam heroes. All typically patriotic, just to the wrong country.

    In other news, natural gas has been rebranded 'freedom gas', spray cheese has been classified as a food staple and lemon juice and stuffed olives your five-a-day. Weaken the people and they become more compliant.

    US slips from 1st to 3rd in global competitveness and warnings of the start of a recession but it's alright as it's only other people's money he's playing with, something he's lots of experience of doing on the way to financial collapse.

    Couldn't they have renamed it 'Trump Gas'?

    I can't see his logic with the trade tariff on Mexico. He is basically fining them for having people wanting to leave.
    Problem being said tariff is likely to cause more migrants.

    True, I'd expect he will try an use the funds generated from this tariff to be diverted to his hobby horse wall project.

    The fact that Robert Mueller emerged and pretty much said that he thinks Trump is a criminal has to be covered up.

    China is ongoing, Bolton has stolen his thunder over Iran and North Korea is one of the good guys at the moment. So it's back to the border with Mexico using a slightly new approach (they have blocked the wall again).

    He'll be here in a few days now and has said he is not going to keep his nose out of UK politics, oh no siree. Expect to get his advice on Brexit and no doubt Johnston's defence team will have secret meetings with Trump's shadier advisers explaining how easy it is to get away with lying.

    Blimey, if we're only processing his "What the f*ck is he doing" moments one at a time we could be here for years, nay decades.

    Tarriffs hurt US businesses and consumers but he doesn't care as that's other people's money and, as said, he likes to play with others' money until financial destitution.

    He may not have the legal authority to impose tarriffs without good reason and we know there's no good reason behind this, rather it's another rage-tweet designed to distract from Mueller. This will likely be tied up in the courts for months or until he forgets about it and rage-tweets some other threat to someone else to deflect from the next disaster of his presidency.

    It also imperils the NAFTA replacement if you're intending to put tarriffs on those involved, but then like infrastructure Trump has achieved absolutely nothing in these areas and unlikely will in this term, just hurting US citizens at every stage and not giving a toss.

    Mueller infered as much but was very tactful in what he said, pretty much the way he is anyway very measured and lets what hes done do the talking.

    Bolton's comments regarding the explosives being defiantly from Iran but then failing to provide proof is about the norm, basically confirming they want to invade Iran for its Freedom Fluid (oil) but trying to make as many excuses as possible to justify it.

    Trump's UK visit will be littered with his "insights" on what should be done, protests and him complaining about views from his golf courses.

    Not to mention many US companies manufacture across the border for cheaper labour so he's presumably making US citizens pay more for stuff made by US companies!

    I'm surprised anyone would rely on the BBC for actual news these days, or the Farage Campaign Corporation to give it its proper name.

    I was disappointed to hear the Radio 3 news headline Trump's lunatic ramblings about UK politics this morning. It's getting harder and harder not to see Chris Morris's The Day Today as an accurate/factual prediction of where the world and news reporting of it was heading.
