The coiffured Americano at large, not at all imperious with the glint of bullshit in his glare.

If you delightful USAns could sort out your own shite out, I for one would happily ignore your self absorbed culture, your fake plastic politicians, with everlasting glee.

Sadly the planet can't afford the level of ignorance your nation expands upon every waking day.

Be lucky dude!

It's maddening how so many USAn's seem incapable of accepting that the mad orange fascist didn't appear in a vacuum.

He is entirely a creation of their self absorbed culture and their childish demented nation.

European leaders did nothing of the sort.

Trump is a wholly made USAn monster.

Sadly the rest of the planet has to deal with your shite.

Something in the water!!!!!

Being a moral pygmy is not real leadership, it's rank cowardice.

More a tedious stab at mirth from a denizen of that demented country.

Mandelson fooled Blair, Brown and Starmer who, regardless of one's opinions of them, are not stupid people. Mandelson is a spiv in the same vein as Farage. Like other spivs, he must be one helluva salesman. He practiced his dark art again today on #bbclaurak. 1/3

Did he fool them or are they just equally squalid and devoid of morality?.

He is one of their own.

You're not supposed to mention the utter depravity of the 'whole' USAn political class! and never mention for how long it's gone on?.

The rancid slug in the WH did not appear in a vacuum. A veritable product of decades of degeneracy in DC.

Do people reject science because they don't understand it? Or because they simply don't like the answers?

So many heretics out there, but thankfully you can spot them by their pointy ears!
