Oh, he has, and lives at the WH as we speak. Trouble is, ours speaks and tweets.

One thing about the Brits that I love: they tell it like it is whether it shines a bright light on the antics of others OR themselves.

So, it's a perfect likeness of the man it represents!

What a tremendous victory this is for Britain, and for all of humankind.

Uneducated? Please tell me what is so educated about this stunt. Enquiring minds want to know.

In what world is it ok for Trump to mess up the Nato summit so bad that our own Defense Dept. has to damage control?
I would like his supporters to answer this.

Explain how his moving us way more to the right and alienating our allies is beneficial to our country?

We can be bought cheap. Crumpets with butter mind you, no margarine!! With good Yorkshire tea to wash it down, and then we'll protest Mother Theresa!!........

This blimp is a great idea. Don't protest Donald....... laugh at him. He cannot stand that.

That would be TrumpLandia, which is beginning to have a remarkable resemblance to Jonestown.

At minimum, it required someone to identify a world leader and make a critical evaluation of how they behave in global politics, whether accurate or not. If I asked the average American what they thought of Giuseppe Conte's view of the role of the European Union, they would look at me like I had lobsters crawling out of my ears.

Would have been funnier with Putin’s testicals resting on his chin.
