Who would I rather have a pint with, and it’s 100% Trump ! In the UK if the choice is between bonkers, (Farage), deluded, (Sunak) , or opportunist liar, (Starmer), then it would obviously be Farage ! Hardly a scientific way to pick a leader, but sadly, looking at the choices we have, I can’t think of a better way !!!! Cheers. Good summary, I get that, but alcohol dulls the senses, often brings out the worst in people and makes idiots great mates for the night. Aim higher!

Aim higher! Being in the company of Messers Biden, Sunak and Starmer, even without alcohol, wouldn’t just dull my senses, it would make me consider self harming ! I’d have a better conversation with the local paraffin, sharing a park bench and a bottle of Thunderbird ( can you still get Thunderbird ?). Cheers. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

He has said in the past that the police should rough people who are arrested and that early release should be stopped. He's now saying the state, the police and the courts conspires against innocent individuals. UK police in the sixties and seventies used to see beating up suspects as a perk of the job. If those arrested fought back, it was an automatic six months. I would like to have seen Trump released from custody with a massive black eye in accordance with his past statements. He would have loved that and it would probably win him the next election. He could have really played the victim then. It happened i Ireland for many a year and if you spoke up you got a nother beating by the Judge in court . 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
