My mate lives in the States and has recently moved from LA to Florida because of the mess on the West coast. Something to do with taxes / drugs and the communities and it not being a great place to live I believe. or at least that’s what he told me. I was chatting to a couple of older yanks on holiday in Italy last week, they moved out of San Francisco, said its turned into a horrible place from when they grew up there. It’s tragic. I went there about 15 years ago and it was one the best places I’ve ever visited.

Hopefully he man's up and debates other candidates in the Republican party. Leaders lead they don't hide. Best leader to come out of the West since Thatcher mate. Thatcher... I think she would have hated Trump Thatcher had actual beliefs, Trump believes in nothing but himself

Thatcher represented the aspiring middle class - she absolutely loathed the working class and decimated working class communities right across the country. Trump couldn't give a fuck about anyone else but Trump. I do believe working class communities don't get the representation they need (and that includes socially conservative right wingers) - but in part it's down to this bizarre habit of claiming people as their own who have absolutely no experience of working class life and, outside the ballot box, hold the working class in utter contempt. It's weird.

She most definitely was not working class as you well know She was mate ad you well know. 🇬🇧 She was a grammar school educated daughter of a shop keeper who married a millionaire - by any definition at the time that would have her middle class, not working class and to be fair at no point did she ever claim to be working class. She wasn't considered part of the establishment but there is no way she was working class. There are a good number of working class people who admire Thatcher but there are working class people right across the country who loathe her for what she did to working class communities. Despite what you seem to think you are not the authentic voice of the working class - in fact there isn't one voice and to suggest otherwise is nonsense.

He couldn't give 2 hoots about anyone but himself. People who use anger to win votes tend to have their own agenda and have little interest in helping people. He's good at grooming people I will give him that.

His father was a toolmaker and his mother a nurse so he could legitimately claim he was from a working class background but given where he is now I'd say he was middle class. Thatcher never claimed to be anything other than middle class. Any claims she was working class are nonsense.

People who use anger to win votes tend to have their own agenda and have little interest in helping people. He's good at grooming people I will give him that. I disagree mate. Trump is about the only one that genuinely gives a toss about America and the working class. When Trump was leveraging his position of power with Qatar to help his slumlord son-in-law out of debt, was he helping the working people? When the gap between metro and non-metro income continued to escalate, was he helping the working people? When he cut rural investments, was that helping working people? How about when his policies sided with agribusiness rather than the independent farmer? When his trade wars led to a 24% increase in bankruptcy filings in small to medium sized farms, did that help? Slashing access to health insurance probably didn’t help much. Under Trump, the share of total income going to the prosperous and wealthy grew by a whopping 17 percent between 2016 and 2019. That means most Americans received a thinner slice of the national income pie in 2019. None of this sounds like caring about the working man. Why would he?

Trumps Civil case starts in New York today where he and his family begin to defend fraud charges that he didn't inflate his wealth by $1.9 Billion to $3.6 Billion to procure more favourable business terms
Of course he's working class

Trump, like Thatcher is also on the right side of history. Pretty sure that in the past you have sided with the idea that: "good, moral, honourable people should have no time, or respect, for Donald Trump." Double standards, yourself and Trump appear to sit very well with each other.

If you want corrupting look no further than Biden and hunters laptop and their links to corruption in Ukraine.

He's going to jail, end of. His defence in the current court case for overstating his assets is hilarious. My favourite is his claim that his penthouse flat was three times larger than it actually is isn't an issue because the matter is purely subjective. Presumably tape measures are a devious tool of the deep state.

When people can't defend Trump why do they bring Biden into it? You are just parroting what other people are saying. Are you speaking your own mind or someone else's?
