    Failing Time magazine ask Trump to remove fakenews covers from his golf courses.

    Bizarre. He can just hang up a real one from the "person of the year" issue instead can't he?

    He can. But I guess he didn't like the "President of the Divided States of America" strap line.

    In Mar a Lago, I think they know.

    What about the "Deal with it" cover?

    Any reason, or just looking for dangerous ideas?

    Could be tricky with a kindle.

    What will happen when the voters who voted Trump see their Golden Ticket to the beautiful land getting impeached?
    Civil war? They are the gun touting bunch after all.

    Argument is flat thin explosives.

    But of course, if a US border rozzer seems some text he doesn't like, I wouldn't hold out much hope for you.

    So a few years back I was stopped at Stansted for a while because I was carrying a load of electronics for an engineering competition. At the same time they also stopped someone who was presumably Russian who had a book about AK 47s (in Russian ) . Didn't see what happened to him, presumably they let him go eventually... but it made me laugh slightly, what's he gonna do, hit someone with the book ffs.

    It's the intent though. Do you want some nutter reading that next to you given all the security concerns? It's just common sense.

    Huh? The intent to what? Learn about ak47s? Not my bag but whatever floats your boat.

    If it was book on how to make bombs out of things that are commonly available on commercial airlines then you'd have a point.

    1984, 2024...which year?
    The above may be fact, or fiction, I may be serious, I may be jesting.
    I am not sure. You have no chance.

    Wow - I don't know who Crazy Mika is, but it doesn't seem a particularly edifying way for the leader to be issuing statements.

    That's a little unfair - he also said she was stupid and called her partner and co-host a psycho.

    I have that book (in English) - fascinating if a little long winded. The author believes that it was actually invented by a German gun wizard who they grabbed at the end of the war. They then attached Mr Kalashnikov's name to it for the purposes of propaganda.

    Gold Codes are generated daily and provided by the National Security Agency (NSA) to the White House, The Pentagon, United States Strategic Command, and TACAMO. For an extra level of security, the list of codes on the card includes codes that have no meaning, and therefore the president must memorize where on the list the correct code is located.

    Current speculation is that him and the majority of his family and entourage are going to die in jail. The only thing that is not so clear at the moment is how long it is going to take to put him there. Watergate took around three years to conclude, I think. The general feeling is that this current investigation is moving a lot faster than that...

    You would think that the US electorate would be embarrassed to see their leader posting that childish wrestling spoof from the official Twitter account of their leader but apparently the sort of people who voted for him think it's the sort of thing a modern president should do. I'm starting to lose all hope!

    That said, the outrage over the video is over the top. It's more childish and unprofessional than anything, the bigger concern is the apparent lack of him doing anything political such as policy.

    To be honest, he might have a point in this case. I'm not even convinced that you actually really are Bender the Robot.

    Now he has said that at some point the fake news media are going to be forced to report on the good stuff.

    Cut above yesterday's tweet. How long before the press officer says that he meant forced by the circumstances being so good - not that he might mean they would be forced?
