I read the news today oh boy! Page 2,901

Trump is 78 and has no political heir other than his teenage son.
If he has to stand down through health reasons I suspect the plan is for Musk to buy Greenland.
He can then merge it with the US in the deal that sees him made a natural citizen so that he and Baron can rule as joint presidents.
And while that may sound far fetched you have to remember that this is the same guy who is also planning on colonising Mars.
But fear not as these two are going to fall out BIG STYLE and when they do Musk will have all the goods on Trump and vice versa.
So keep your popcorn on stand by because it will be spectacular, even by their standards.

Will he be the future dictator of the American continent,? Bring out a new law that extends is Presidency for as long as he survives?
The mind boggles and if it wasn't already on TV what a great comedy show that would be

I quite like Barron's creepy American Pyscho vibes. You just know that when he's not standing behind his dad like an entitled Lurch, he's out setting homeless people on fire.

It probably wasn't a fascist salute.
But the fact that he felt that it didn't matter how it was interpreted says it all.
He's super-rich and,thus, can do what he likes.
And that's the kind of world he,Trump and the rest of them want to build.
It's called an oligarchy.
And you and I have no place in it.
If you have a scintilla of support for these guys, and don't loathe everything they stand for, you are a dimwit.
So who cares what kind of salute it was.

I'll tell you what kind of world I would want no place in. One in which someone is so full of their own importance that they cannot tolerate, or even envisage, any contrary views and, if anyone dares to have a different opinion, they can only be considered to be below average intelligence.

Now that truly is fascism.

Twitter is full of pictures of significant people in the USA doing a nazi salute.
They were waving or signalling goodbye but caught in a still photograph, it is purposely misinterpreted.

No it isn't.
If I forced my views on you, it would be.
And as I said, it's not fascism, it's Oligarchy.

What about dimwits though?

I reserve that for anyone who doesn't believe it's an oligarchy.

True.
I was leaving out people who know it's an oligarchy but think that's OK.
My mistake..

Call it what you like A rose is still a rose by any other name I prefer dictatorship

"Nigel Farage launched a blistering attack on Boris Johnson, accusing him of being an "occasional friend" of Donald Trump.

Eyebrows were raised after the former Prime Minister was invited into the Rotunda for the inauguration but Mr Farage, a close friend of Mr Trump's was not."

Awww poor Nige...

Still, he did get to hang out with a different rapist instead

"Nigel Farage condemned for sharing picture with Conor McGregor on social media
Reform UK leader criticised for posing with MMA fighter, who lost civil rape case in Ireland last year"

Imagine it, Starmer having a selfie with a rapist - all smiles - every shitty right wing rag would be going berserk

Farage does it? Absolutely fine

Don't have a go at the next prime minister.

I'm having a go at a man who likes to get chummy with a rapist

You clearly aren't bothered either as usual

I guess some of us have morals and common decency- and then there are people like you who are fine with men who sexually abuse women and don't condemn it

Shameful
