Michael Moore said it better. To clarify the video, it is cut out of context to make it appear as if Moore is blowing trumps rusty trumpet but it's cut from a longer speech about why Moore thought Trump was going to get a lot more votes than the Pollsters were saying.

Pretty much the same analogy for the vote for brexit, people felt they had nothing left to lose and when the Tory Boys said " We Are better in Europe " it was a chance to stick two fingers up. When you have lost so much hope and seem to have nothing to live for, then, you have something to die for. Obviously they never thought out the consequences of their vote but , hey ho, that's what Americans are going to have to live through for the next 4 years.

They only have to suffer for 4 years whereas due to the leave vote here we have to suffer forever and a day.

I wonder how many of the suggested 80,000 demonstrators in London were patrons of the US?

Yes, that is the difference. But, we now know Brexit had not been thought out.

I think a lot of regular people are constantly looking at the news and seeing these liberals in the US talk and act in often violent and lawless ways and they have decided enough is enough and voted for the party whose rank and file members aren't constantly in the news for doing such things.

You have a point. I remember the riots around Croydon, the Lefties that caused trouble around the Cenataph etc, they are violent, the SWP and such like.
I think the result in the UK and the US has proved the majority have had enough..... just an opinion tho.

The difference is our mistakes only screw up one country, Trump has the potential to screw up the world. That's he meant by Brexit x 10

I'm looking forward to Trumps time. It's going to be interesting and funny.

It's the willingness to turn to violence and destruction and then try and justify it through some stupid reasoning that makes no sense to the average person on the street.

Like the other day when that alt-right guy was king hit on the street by a masked left wing extremist. Sure the alt right guy is a dick and says a lot of garbage, but that does not give the left a licence to incite violence against someone because of their opinion.

When people see that kind of action on busy city street even if people aren't supportive of the alt right movement it does says to people well the alt right might be bad, but the guy and the ideals he supports are worse.

And that's how it also works at higher levels and why despite the shit Trump spoke, it was Hilary's actions that spoke louder than Trumps words.

 

[brighton fella]

And then we'll never know how many were at the inauguration. Think Trump is estimating there were a billion there in front of the white house, or was it two billion!!!!

Heard sky news saying there was hardly any Trump supporters there...where were these massive gaps in the crowds then because from what i could make (and my wife as well) the streets looked to be heaving !!. .

In the scheme of things a tiny little white lie like this is irrelevant and can be wavered, but to have parts of the media make up all sorts of stories in order to feed and promote their own filthy driven agenda when in fact they are supposed to be impartial has to be wrong...especially when those stories could have consequences !!. not the first time they have been seen to be telling porkies either.

That's your opinion rather than fact. You seem to be proving the quote in the OP correct. We need to return to genuine political debate and turn back from this kind of overly dramatic assertion. I blame the internet. I think it ironic that Trump is rightly criticized for extreme language but often by people who employ extreme language on the other side of the 'debate.'

 

[brighton fella]

Trump won in the same way Leave won the Referendum. Most of the people who have subsequently protested about both should have been as passionate before the vote happened.

For those who reckon Hilary Clinton wouldn't be an improvement on Donald Trump and call themselves progressive: have a look at yourself.

The ones who like to be known as progressives are the supporters of the Clinton's etc...and in fact anything else that represents the establishment.

Would that be the party who had a supporter punch a black man as he was being escorted out of one of the rallies?

Don't try and paint a picture that the only violence is from the left!

Well that nice billionaire Donald Trump and his ex-Goldman Sachs friends are in charge now so they can be happy.

Suggest you and your wife go to specsavers then.

Must admit not that frilled by his Goldman Sachs appointees though , just hope they show allegiance to the country and not their filthy corrupt ex employers.

Believe it or not I am not criticising people who support Trump in this instance (although I vehemently disagree with them). My problem is with people on both sides of the Atlantic who would rather protest after something goes against them then try and change the outcome beforehand.

That's a picture ffs, where is proper live filming ?. i was watching it live and once again it was packed.!! and by the way that is impressive considering his support isn't from around that area.
As said irrelevant anyway,

[The Rivet]

Is it worth arguing about? The turnout. Will it change the president?
