@Frank It's kinda funny.
I actually dont think it is funny. Attacking Trumps kid is pretty low.
given the school shootings in the US, I dont see how this could be seen as funny, ever, no matter who's kid.
Tragedy plus time equals comedy. The speculation that Trump's youngest has autism fits the profile for a joke; young, white, autism = school shooting.
@No-Quarter said in US Politics:
I can't really get my head around the "woman's rights" protests against Trump. What woman's rights has he said he is going to revoke?
It's a reflection of the fact he's an old white Republican who gets to nominate a Supreme Court Justice, putting at danger Roe v Wade. I do find the sisterhood solidarity tedious; you live in an entirely different country and didn't have a fucking march for the oppressed women living in shithole countries...
what time though? the shootings are happening with regularity, plus I dont see too many joking about Sept. 11, a fair amount of time has passed since then, plus this is Trumps kid who doesnt deserve to have thi kind of abuse directed at him.
Time? Well that's subjective, hence "too soon?"
Fine if you think it's funny, I don't.
How magnanimous of you.

I'd read a few reports on the inauguration speech and then finally watched the speech in full.The anti Trump bias is pretty incredible for main stream media. I get that they don't like him, neither do I but if you go too much out on a limb to discredit him and you get found out you are full of shit then they're only going to hurt themselves.

The women's march looks like a giant hissy fit.
The Democrats haven't been quite this upset since the Republicans freed their slaves.
That's a great line.

@Stockcar86 Can someone clarify what I'm looking at there?

Mohammed Sean al-Spicer?

this is an accurate view of the crowd.....and on that, from what I have read, he had 700k to 900k, which compares favourably to Clinto and Bush, but obviously lesss than Obama. Big deal, he had over 30m watching, wheras Obama had 20m. Washington D C is overwhelmingly democrat, as well.
the video....

Obama 38m in '09. Reagan 41m in '81.
These numbers have to be viewed with a great deal of scepticism given there was no way they could know.
