You'd think they know a fascist when they see one.

It looks like he's copying the mannerisms of Mussolini.

Been done already.

That's fairly courageous for STERN. Courageously fair too.

I think there were a large number of people who were evidently surprised by the election, it was a sort of Brexit Mark II, but I don't think the whole world came out gunning for him.

Had he thrown himself into it and tried to make a success, I genuinely believe that he might have been able to garner approval, but he didn't. He has access to the best advice in the world, from experienced career politicians, but he has surrounded himself with a series of grandstanders, and has done nothing but attempt to poke a stick in the bears cage.

He has brought this approbrium down upon his own head...he never tries to placate anyone, he shocks his own staff as they don't know what he's going to come out with next, and as for his tweets

Maybe I'm not making my point very well. I'm not saying he's done good things or trying to placate anyone, all I'm saying is why would he even bother trying in the face of such unflinching criticism?

My Father-in-Law can't stand me, especially since I took his daughter half way round the world. I've tried in the past to win him over, but nothing worked, so I've stopped bothering.

Trump's biggest fault as far as I can see is that he has the attitude of a 14 year old who has never been told 'no'. I don't think he's evil, I just think he is a woefully inadequate human being who has zero empathy.

It's like a sit com isn't it. It's funny at first, but then you realise you haven't got a fallout shelter. I find the bloke as worrying as the next person, bloody shame abject stupidity isn't impeachable.

My German half says just tell him the Secret Service budget has run out and from now on he has to ride in an open car with no protection, and wearing one of those red hats.

This an easy version of chicken and egg though. The criticism is there for a reason. He could still win people over but he can't resist himself.

Look at last week with the Charlottesville thing. After much criticism about the way he apportioned blame, he eventually came around with the condemnation that people wanted to hear. If he'd left it at that and maybe reinforced it later there's a chance people might have started thinking "Hey, he's finally listened to some advice and taken it on board."

But no, he went back on it to say the stuff he got slated for the first time.

Well that's understandable...you stopping trying I mean but you would still hope that others would like you. Trump doesn't seem to have that concern.

To me his only redeeming feature is that he wears his heart on his sleeve, he doesn't have a public and private persona, or the intelligence to carry it off. He's a dick pretty much 100% of the time haha.

On the last bit, as I fast approach 50 I find myself less and less outgoing and preferring just my own company more and more, a bonafide miserable old git if you will haha

That was me at 22.

He obviously has NPD (narcissist). Finally some politicians and the media are starting to bring this into the public debate and serious question his fitness for office. Especially in relation to the nuke codes (something Hillary flagged in one of the televised debates).

I'd love to know what world leaders say privately among themselves and whether they try to have a "quiet word" with his people behind the scenes.

I mean we heard what Merkel had to say when "explaining" something to him (that should not have needed explaining) and we saw him push the MP of Montenegro out of the way at a meeting.

All that's in public, just imagine what could be said in private.

Says not available in my country... but this isn't bad if you have 15 minutes.
