Who knows KoK could turn out to be right, Trump is such a wild card he's impossible to predict. But looking at the blue skies negotiations, looking at the tariffs he's throwing around like confetti, it doesn't fill me with confidence.

Trump was voted on an American first ticket. He is delivering bigtime in America and he is set to win in 2020 as it stands.

Tarrifs are low in comparison to before. But trump wants a fair system not 10% one way and 2.5% the other way. I think that’s fair.

they want a system that's weighed in Americas favour. That's just not Trump, that's how they do business. I'm not saying they're wrong, I'm saying it means they won't do us any favours unless they get something in return, we all know what that something is.

Look the guys attitudes are odious but he's cracking eggs .
The worst anyone can do when dealing with the twat is react.
On the surface he's got the ball rolling over NK credit for that.
We're headed backwards though under his model .
Despite the Crash (Banking Created),there is less order /certainty /security in the system.
More fluctuation will result, we should know by now who benefits from that.

McCabe took notes on his meetings with Trump and he is now unemployed without a pension. Could be interesting. Stormy‘s lawyer said 6 other women have come forward. Trump is reckless. Question is if it costs him his presidency before he wrecks the world economy?

So??
The split is even on Military action in Syria both around 35% for and against
Should it involve engaging Russia it swings to 28%-48% against.

In terms of a response to military action, the vote in Russia is 105% for and 0% against.

There will be a strike on Syria , it won’t involve Russia , it’s all a big conspiracy to prop up Trump and Putin.

Again we are not being shown the proof, did Assad really gas his own people? Why? Why now?

I’m not convinced by a long chalk but if true I think we need to act and I agree with trump. Send a message. Be clear and straight forward. And I’m normally against military action.

Proof appears to be the one thing our government finds difficult to provide. Once it's been established definitively it makes the justification for military action more reasoned.

One problem is that Trump is not clear and straight forward. He watches something on Fox and sends off an angry tweet. Last week at a rally he said we’ve ( meaning USA ) beaten ISIS and will leaving Syria very shortly. Assad thinks thank god for that and throws barrels of nerve gas to take care of a stubborn pocket of resistance. Then Trump puts the Tele on, sees what‘s happened and tweets we’re going to blow something in Syria up. Maybe there will be conflict of some sort with Russia starting in Syria.

You agree with Trump. Which version? Last week‘s, today’s or tomorrow‘s Trump?

I just want him impeached, or if we make it to the mid terms, the republicans to suffer the worst mid terms in history. One semi literate idiot less on the world stage would certainly help.

Followed by a clear explanation from Huckerberry Sanders:

„Sanders indicated to reporters that missile strikes were not his only option.
"That's certainly one option, but that doesn't mean it's the only option or the only thing that the President may or may not do," she said.“

Clear as mud and leaving all options open to the President who had said during his campaign that he wouldn’t be as stupid as to tell the enemy what his actions would be. Although he just did in his first tweet.

Let’s see how he feels when he has watched Fox News today.

Arguably Macron is more radically distant from the French political tradition, than Trump is from the American!

is he? Trump has now said he didn't say when or even if the missiles are going to be fired. Who knows what is going to happen. The US - Russian crisis line about the Middle East is open and active. Depends what's on Fox News.

I thought he wanted to make the French Language more important again and lead the EU Reform with Merkel in the absence of the UK, which would suggest a more distant approach to the UK and a strengthening of French influence in Europe and the rest of the world whilst Britain try to find it's place in the world having left the EU.

Nope he’s just announced he has clear evidence of the chemical attack and is pushing for military action.

Odd that. Mr Corbyn just denounced violence on both sides (well I never) and seemed taken in by the Russian claim no chemical attack took place. Nothing changes there.

Lol he seems pretty keen on getting May involved in military action and was one of the first to stand up against Putin in the wake of Salisbury

I'd concur with a fair chunk of his views, most definitely regarding his assessment around Trumps tweeting and other techniques.

Anyone remember the days when Trump was telling everyone that he could deal with Putin, as if it was a failure of previous regimes to not get close to him. How times change. In a short period of time too. It was only last November when Trump was believing the denials of Putin. Mind you that was a denial about meddling in the American election. Trumps ego alone won’t allow him to admit that his election win was anything other than his own work. By the time Trumps presidency is up Putin would have lied about everything...

... other than meddling in the USA election. Definitely telling the truth on that...

... but nothing else.

I’m talking about Syria when he refused to condemn a chemical attack on young children. The whole world condemns it but Corbyn. That’s fine but in the end if you vote for Corbyn look at the screaming children subjected to chemical warfare and consider the Corbyn utters not one word of condemnation - not a word.

i was talking about Syria, we could potentially be going into war on the side of Al Qaeda affiliates, do you want Corbyn to defend them?

i could spend all night on here listing attacks that have happened which haven't been condemned by our government and in some cases clearly facilitated by them, (Yemen springs to mind), So you statement is fairly ridiculous.

I don't know the answer to what's going on in Syria, but I do know that we have affected regime change and backed dubious groups in the Middle East with ever increasing disastrous results, going right back to the 50s when Iran had a fairly rational and democratically elected leader who we helped depose in order to install an Islamist because he wanted to nationalise Irans oil supplies for the Iranian people.

So I'm always concerned when we get involved in situations like this because invariably we somehow manage to make things even worse than they were before.
Also remember that as far back as 2013 Corbyn urged the Government to stop Russia from being allowed to attend arms trade fair on UK soil and purchasing weapons, but I'm sure you will somehow find a way to condemn him for that.
