Ah... you have just gotten yourselves a new king. You should have said that was what you wanted.

We have Charles here all ready in office with Prince William in the background waiting. You could also go with  Prince Harry - he at least is living in America and is married to an American.

Now if you really want to go conspiracy theory you could give Prince Andrew a call. He was friends with Epstein and Trump.

🤣😂😁🤣😃

Sorry, I could not resist.

 

 

What is really annoying is that my taxes are being used to protect your president while he is on a little jolly and also doing personal business. Wouldn't mind if it was state business.

We are annoyed that the conman uses tax dollars to spend money at his golf resorts too. Last time around, Trump golf trips cost us somewhere in the ballpark of $150 million over the course of the 4 years.  Reporting showed that secret service and other staff required to lodge near the president were charged top dollar for their rooms at trump properties. No discounts from the Trump's when the money was just begging to be grifted into Trump pockets. 

It's a great con.

I am enjoying pictures of the protesters and their signs they have created, learning some new slang along the way. Both the US and UK are shelling lots of money with little to show for it.

But he says you love him there.

He got a deal with the EU there, so there is that.

I also have to say him taking the time to work on securing and promoting a new golf course annoyed me as well.  Just know that we are paying millions for his trip to Scotland.

American taxpayers will shell out at least $10 million over the next several days so President Donald Trump can participate in a marketing photo opportunity at his golf resort in Aberdeen, Scotland — the profits from which will flow directly into his own pocket.

The police are out in force to keep protestors away from him. They do not want a repeat of Janey Godley (RIP). There are huge exclusion zones around him.

Yes, in fairness he did that but would he have done it any way? TACO.

Yes and they have not even finalised a price on the costs to the British tax payer yet. That will be interesting.

"We're at a point where the Trump administration is so intertwined with the Trump business that he doesn't seem to see much of a difference,” Jordan Libowitz, vice president of Citizens for Responsibility and Ethics in Washington, told ABC News.

As an addendum to the above;

I came across this 👇 on YouTube ⬇️, if you ignore the majority of the film - yes I am aware that this youtuber may not be to everyone's taste in America - so if you just watch the first 2 minutes you will see what happened.

Some media here casually reported as if those bagpipes were part of Trump's planned pomp and circumstance.  Isn't it odd that even people in other countries suffer so significantly from Trump Derangement Syndrome? Hahaha

Trump EPA moves to repeal landmark 'endangerment finding' that allows climate regulation

Quote

President Donald Trump's administration on Tuesday proposed revoking a scientific finding that has long been the central basis for U.S. action to regulate greenhouse gas emissions and fight climate change.

The proposed Environmental Protection Agency rule would rescind a 2009 declaration that determined that carbon dioxide and other greenhouse gases endanger public health and welfare. The "endangerment finding" is the legal underpinning of a host of climate regulations under the Clean Air Act for motor vehicles, power plants and other pollution sources that are heating the planet.

Repealing the finding "will be the largest deregulatory action in the history of America,” EPA Administrator Lee Zeldin said Tuesday.

Quote

Environmental groups said Zeldin's action seeks to deny reality even as weather disasters exacerbated by climate change grow worse in the U.S. and around the world.

"As Americans reel from deadly floods and heat waves, the Trump administration is trying to argue that the emissions turbocharging these disasters are not a threat,’' said Christy Goldfuss, executive director of the Natural Resources Defense Council. "It boggles the mind and endangers the nation's safety and welfare.”

I would characterize the efforts of this emerging fascist regime as ignorant and cruel ideology from sociopaths who are wealthy enough to feel impervious to the consequences of their destructive ideas.

This "fascist regime " has been "emerging" for almost 10 years now. Well either this idea of a "fascist regime " is just fear mongering propaganda or the worst "emerging fascist regime " in history. Not to mention not successful.

  I know. I know. Trump will be a "dictator " one day, for real real this time......2015............2020..........2025.....................................

P.s: The popular vote disagrees

And then along came Epstein. It's fascinating to watch magadonians try to hold trump accountable for his behavior. And that's not to mention those wielding him as a useful tool, Natural selection in action ...

Google Heather Cox Richardson. Better yet, search her name on The Bulwark YouTube channel. Some great interviews there.

I think disagreed, as in past tense is more accurate. His poll numbers are tanking. Is that success?

I think it translates as "Move along, people. Nothing to see here".
