If the Nazi party of America wants Ratings, their Supreme leader should volunteer as a Stand-in.

Dear America, if a gallon of petrol and five delusional kids can frighten off a squadron of B1 bombers...

He should never have been allowed to stand. Period. You reap what you sow. Now America must end it.

#northernireland Disappointed NI doesn't have its own National Anthem. They need one. (Scotland and Wales do). Listening to the English dirge at Windsor Park tonight was embarrassing.

For best results, free yourself from the Orange crybaby kiddie-fiddling shitgibbon.

You know how far America has fallen when you learn that the Russian Government currently has a jet flying between Washington Dullas and JFK. (They are banned from UK airspace)

Sign up to the BBC. Half my American friends already watch it. (Best to get a VPN to ensure they don't know you're watching it, else they'll try to ban the BBC too.)

A convicted murderer yes, but after they tried to kill her once (twice?) maybe now she should be commuted. Of course, this being fucked up Tennessee, they'll probably fix it so she doesn't survive hospital.

The UK/EU's response to the orange child's threats will ultimately be brutal. Meanwhile US Bonds continue to dive towards the credibility of Third World nations.

Andy Gabriel-Powell @andygabrielpowell.bsky.social · 02/10/2026
And no, the petty threats of a bankrupt brain-challenged, strangely orange coloured criminal were not the fundamental reason. Meanwhile, the world continues to dump US Bonds and dollars like confetti.

trump's tariff threats and unsustainable policies mean Investors now price in his fiscal mismanagement. (Something normally reserved for 3rd World economies.) If he continues, the cost to the US economy and Bond market will be devastating, and for the American people, even worse.

The world should just follow China's lead and use RMBs to dump US Bonds - pretty soon the dollar will be worthless.

The fun part about it is that he can't do a damn thing about it. (See China for details of how to ditch USD.)

There must be a thousand laws he's broken to say nothing of shredding the Constitution, and yet, the Orange criminal is still in charge. Any hope of America regaining the respect it once had will take a generation to repair - if ever.

Trump didn't have a clue what was going on - he's bullshitting again. If the US at the base knew about them, they would have been on high alert and somone would have answered the phone. Thankfully the woman who tried, then called the police - who responded accordingly.

Since votes won't count come November, what then? Break up the Union? Create your own autonomy? Civil War 2? Or simply stop whining and put up with your dictatorship?

The problem with Bluesky is that the people whose minds you need to change, don't follow it.

FWIW even King Charles of the UK doesn't have the absolute power of Pardon - he can do so only on the advice of the Justice Secretary and/or the UK government.

Makes sense. America has a 34x convicted criminal for a president but nobody arrests him.

There's only one risk to the National Security of America, and it resides in the White House.

True. In which case, the American experiment has failed. Time to reset the map.

Utterly irrelevant unless someone has the balls to arrest the Orange turd.

Besides McConnell, there are 77 million other vegetables also allowed to vote in America.

And that, should always be the prime directive? Nobody (on either side) wants their children to go through what their generation did.

I've lived with it all my life. I have my own coping methods. What's the point of trying to change me now at 67? There is none. Hence no money required to be spent on me.

I don't want 'help' with my recently discovered neurodivergency - I just want understanding. No money required.

He's not a president he's a PINO. (President In Name Only)

And the longer he remains president the harder it will be for any nation to ever trust America again. Meanwhile the free world moves on.

The bottom line comes down to whether the real America is going to stand up and fight if the Demented Orange piece of shit and his Nazi cohorts prevent voting during the midterms.

Correction. Human beings would put him where he belongs - in jail. America seems incapable of doing that. There is a difference.

Sick, yes, but from the rest of the world's viewpoint he's a complete wanker. Fix it.

But he's still president? Why? Fix it FFS.
