    You may want to update your vernacular.

    Chimp was the term the democrats coined for George W Bush reflecting his rather spineless and ineffective way of governing. He was a puppet for our DC rulers. Unlike our last leader he could pass a drivers test and had the ability to stay awake more than a couple of hours and also had control of his bowels. He did not need to be put into a memory care unit when he was not loaded up on drugs to get him through a 10 minute speech with no follow up questions.

    Trump fits none of the above characteristics reflecting the chimp nickname you have coined him with.

    I'm glad you like your government and how effective they are. Your healthcare, immigration policies,economic mobility,personal freedoms, education system and you egalitarian business enviroment are models for the rest of the world. I can only hope that someday I get to be governed and live my life the way you do.

    Not sure you have the meaning right there.....

    Vernacular...the language or dialect spoken by the ordinary people in a particular country or region

    You can use whatever "vernacular" you like, my reference to a chimp, as you may recollect, coupled with the reference to being afraid of a chimp with a machine gun (and I illustrated why with other comments in the same post). The chimp in the White House isn't governing, it is dictating, and I suspect it will continue to do so for as long as it occupies that sacred position, as such, it's considerably more dangerous (as already illustrated) than a simian armed only with a machine gun.

    By the way, I have NEVER said I "like" my government, but as the result of a free and fair electoral system and operating as a democracy for a little longer than certain places in the world, I'm content that there are enough checks and balances, including having an apolitical constitutional monarch as head of state instead of a President. I suspect you're teasing me on the rest (healthcare etc), which would be slightly amusing if it wasn't for the fact that we have a healthcare system that treats all those who require its services for free at the point of delivery, and do so from cradle to grave, we have a large scale immigration programme (over 300k last year) for LEGAL migrants, and the number of illegal migrants, whilst unacceptably high, is less than 10% of its legal counterpart, an economy that has weathered many storms, continues to be affected by its nature as a trading country with markets around the world and increasing inward investment (not helped of course by the chimps "will he won't he attitude to tariffs and of course the very logical decision behind levying tariffs on uninhabited island in the Antarctic!), I enjoy personal freedoms in the UK that I would prefer to the rapidly emerging rule by Executive Order that the chimp is establishing for you and yours. As for you being governed in such a fashion, come try it for a while, as you watch from afar as the much vaunted MAGA movement oversees the continuing decline of a once great power as it ceases to be relevant to a world that laughs at its leaders as they scrabble for the favour of the chimp and sees its government for what it is, one mans ego plaything.

    We'd love to see you.
