Hold the front page, Musicchick misinterprets something.

Didn't say that, didn't mention guilt, you did, which says lots, didn't mention evil either. My point was that our lives are a matter of chance, good or bad, we didn't create this affluent western lifestyle; we were born into it, I don't feel guilty to be born in the developed world, but I don't need to feel guitly to feel compassion, the two are not mutually exclusive, capisci?

Never mind the immigrants, when are we going to do something about the leftists?

Typical.

Will you answer the question or simply attempt to deflect and insult once again?

Right after the ones who's avatars have red hats.

(Have to be finished the job before Christmas.)

There we go, those who constantly seem to bring the race into the debate are....left or right?

Those who constantly stoop down to insults are...left or right?

Why do you even mention compassion, what has that anything to do with foreign policy? Have you tried it on a Migros cashier? How about your professor?

You make it sound that you have it while your opponents do not. That's a quite a leap of logic.

Another thing is this "being born into" notion. To assume it is haphasard and by complete chance that some westerners feel or are indeed fortunate...not everyone feels nor lives this way. Nor everybody in the EU, either. Not everybody in the US. We are not born into the world by haphasard, where, why and to whom we are born matters. I think to be told to ignore it is not really welcoming the spirit of acceptance and integrity, one's identity is a complex deal for most folks. This pan-European vague idea of an identity looks good in theory but practically doesn't exist.

Do you welcome all diverse opinions by calling them "misinterpretations"? How long do people stick to talking to you?

You, a non-affluent Eastern European, actually lived under fascism. Is that what you're saying? Because unless you were alive in the 1940s and living in Romania, Slovakia, or Hungary, I really don't think you've ever experienced Eastern European fascism.

What you did experience is the exact opposite.

Spanky "Flip-flop" Trump now claims he "misspoke" at his press conference and that actually, he sees no reason why it was not Russia that meddled in the presidential election in the US.

It must be difficult, simultaneously sucking up to Putin, FOX News and Middle America. So many lies balls to keep in the air at the same time.

And now a fresh flip-flop from Spanky: all of a sudden there's no rush to finalise nuclear disarmament in North Korea. Trump had previously repeatedly stated that denuclearisation should commence "without delay", but after months of absolutely nothing happening, he now says that there is "no time limit... no speed limit" and any negotiations will be "probably a longer process than anybody would like".

So now that Kim has said "no, go away" when Spanky told him to hand over his weapons, Trump has found himself painted into a corner. It must be a familiar situation for him by now.

Trump looking petulant is starting to look very familiar, too.

Maybe we should rephrase the qestion?( in light of the Helsinki conference ).

Would he make a good president or wouldn't he make a good president?

You been on the Mod graveyard shift?

What exactly are the parallels between Trump and dictators of the past? With Putin and Erdogan, there's a link to be seen however with Trump it's tenuous at best. Shouting "Fake News" at a press which has been out to get you from day 1 is far different to locking up journalists or having them assassinated.

It's really funny to see amogles complain about sweeping generalisations (only the other's of course, his own "the lefti" is always justified) and simultaneously thank this post.

The double standards couldn't be more obvious.

But folks, do keep the fingerpointing going, it's quite entertaining to watch.

Well calling out legitimate and long standing news sources as liars. Denouncing his own intelligence agencies in relation to investigations on himself. Colluding with a dictator *ahem* and enemy of the Nation he is the in charge of in meddling with the democratic process. Pushing an agenda that is not about inclusivity of the American people and all those that live there. Having counsel from members of the “alt right”. Dismantling the social system. I could continue but you get the point. You are right he is not a fascist, but he is employing the tactics that have been used by fascism.

Trump's latest lie:

He also seems to think they were born in the European Union, despite them being born in 1905 and 1912.

I'm sure he'll turn it around in his next conference by saying I meant "wasn't born in the EU".

And apparently, if that photograph is to be believed, his dad was Enoch Powell!

Rubbish. That's Jimmy Greaves.

My dad, from Germany, told me they have actual rivers of blood in the EU. Blood coming out of their wherever.
