Election Year or Fear!

[swaledale]

Disinformation researcher Amanda Rogers has described the polarized, unhinged, conspiracy-driven noise in social media responses to the shooting of Donald Trump as “a self-sustaining spiral of ****”.

No, I’ve explained my concerns/fears. You saw the behaviour that followed Trump’s defeat in the last election and I experienced the atmosphere in the build up to his election victory over Hilary Clinton.
That isn’t what we’ve come to expect in the USA since the days of McCarthyism.

rA if Thicky can't see the issue with Trump, then 1) he has no understanding of politics, 2) he hasn't a clue about reality in world affairs 3) he ignores the facts about what trump and his supporters do and say 4) he is a sad deluded conspiracy theorist who swallows bull**** whole and somehow doesn't see how utterly stupid the stuff he posts makes him sound.

Alternatively he could just be ****ing dim!

Stiill good news, that tw@t Farage is leaving the UK to spout his invective and bull**** in the US.

Farage also returning to his GB news role next week. Wonder if he realises he's got a job representing his constituents.

I genuinely don’t understand how this is allowed. I know I despise Farage and all he stands for, but how, as someone salaried to be MP for Clacton, can he a) be allowed to work for GB News and b) be permitted to go to the U.S. to support Trump?

To me it's evidence he's interested only in the fame aspect of politics. He's no interest in Clacton.

Are you in Pennsylvania right now, rA?

Oh dear, he really is on one today.

After your jibe about Farage and Jo Brand, perhaps you can tell everyone what was really said?

No, I’ve explained my concerns/fears. You saw the behaviour that followed Trump’s defeat in the last election and I experienced, first hand, the atmosphere in the build up to his election victory over Hilary Clinton.
That isn’t what we’ve come to expect in the USA since the days of McCarthyism. What the impact has been on the ‘average American’ isn’t really the point. Whether a man who espouses the views he does is fit to be the ‘leader of the free world’ and what the impact of his victory/defeat may be on an already very divided nation is, imo.

ok , so if it is divided, whats your answer?
PS, you never mention the left and its ANTICS WITH ANTIFA

how many MP's have second jobs? Give that some thought
