I think it is a good trolling .

agreed, this is not that bad of a joke and he kinda walked into it if I think for a second.
Most jokes directed at him however are as funny as banshees screaming

HEYYOU says

Bet I could scare the crap out of them with a drone.

Nah. That's what a shotgun is for.

I think the only way to reach out to democrats is to continually talk about their brainwashing. Because, until that is addressed, the back and forth goes no where. The media, yahoo, google, twitter, facebook, have them mind controlled through emotional manipulation, so no real evidence or facts are allowed. Your IQ drops about 20 points (and more) when you're emotionally disturbed, and those mentioned above are working it day and night.

Yes, this seems true to me, and central to US politics.

If you can get people emotional, you don't have to present very good reasoning.

Ceffer says

Do the Dems give gold stars when you are promoted to 'useful idiot' from 'plain idiot'?

No, everyone gets the same award so as not to hurt anyone's feelings.

OccasionalCortex says

Because it would cause a cascading cognitive dissonance disaster for them.


Jesus, if you can't make and take a joke when the Pres. says something as silly as his toilet talk you really have a problem.

TrumpingTits says

What UK-EU rules? There won't be any post-Brexit. The only Brexit that will happen will be pretty much a hard one.

There will be some kind of EU-UK agreement.

They should be sent to Catholic schools to be educated by priests instead.

OccasionalCortex says

Doubtful. Because ANY agreement on the EU side requires UNANIMOUS buy-in by all EU nations. So to sabotage that, all Boris has to do is piss off one or two Euroweenie nations Trump-style over something else entirely.

All he has to do is threaten German Cars and French Wine. That's who really runs the EU.

Whether he plays hardball or not is the question.

From the article:

"The Americans spent the last seven decades paying the world to be on their side. Those days are over. The only countries that will be able to enjoy U.S. market access and strategic cover are those who either pay the U.S. a lot of money, or bring something exceedingly shiny to trade. Supercarriers, being the gold standard of strategic assets, count. Islands off major continents, being the gold standard of strategic positions, count.

Simply put, the United Kingdom has an in so long as it cow-tows appropriately. Japan is in a strikingly similar position for similar reasons. Mexico gets an invitation because it is an entangled neighbor with a dynamic economy. Canada (barely) squeaks over the threshold largely out of habit. South Korea (so far) is paying its way.

And that’s…everyone."

God I hope he's right.

Beautiful Sentiment.

Wouldn't it be nice not to pay for freeloading backseat drivers like the Germans and French?

Hahaha holy shit! When you’ve got the Queen as your caddy, that’s boss!

Photoshop probably.

Shaman says

Seems like the author is saying that the UK will shortly become a vassal state of the USA!

Unlikely they would exit the EU for a worse deal someplace else. Having written that, a vassal state to the US might be better than being in the EU.

She wants to return the camera instead of configuring it correctly.

“The fact that they’re just continuing to give customers the same blanket statement, it’s like they don’t seem concerned at all,” she told The Washington Post. “To be honest, it felt like they were trying to place the blame on me. As a mother, I already feel guilty enough that I let this happen to my family. … There’s just no need for that.”"

No agency or responsibility on her part, Easier to blame the company and demand they take back a perfectly functional device over HER user error.

Greta WOULD make the perfect nun.

Cut that behemoth down!! I say fire 50% of all federal employees.

jerk off on her face while she's being torn to pits, exactly as the Founding Fathers commanded.

The "Pounding Fathers?"

The all time best

I doubt that even most devoted priests would molest her tho

Just give control to states! why does everything has to be controlled by the feds? This way, I can at least know that stealing is going on in our Great State Capitol, instead of distant Washington DC

I like this plan. Alaska, for instance, hasn’t been able to control any of its own land for decades due to meddling by the BLM. Largest state in the union with millions of hectares of completely unused land and we can’t issue a permit for a little resource exploration because some DC pin head wants the tundra to remain pristine.

All time best? Get real. Trump likely gives little though to this girl and Trump has done more than any other leader to limit carbon emission. But to the left, actions do not matter, it is all about appearances such as the Paris Climate Accords. "Trump pushing natural gas and energy independence may have lowered carbon emissions, but Trump pulled out of the Climate Accords, so it does not matter." "China and India pollute far more than the US, and will increase that pollution, but at least they say they agree with the Climate Accords."

Nothing lighting a match won't fix.
