No I should not make it more clear and I have not spouted rubbish thanks, just because you fail to interpret stuff, don't tell me how I should post, when it is clearly you who struggles on here and makes stuff up as you go along and also the cherry picking that you do.

Again, no I have not had a go at the 'entire' womens protest. Making stuff up again martyh and I have not constantly used Madonna, you have constantly argued that she is okay to say dirty stuff and then still stand on a platform for respect for women, when clearly it is not okay because it is double standards, just like you have double standards i.e which links back in to the cherry picking that you do.

Only one problem with all you just said, I am not sexist and not said anything to the contrary which indicates any such thing, more stuff you just like to make up because you like to argue for the sake of arguing.

I also have no problem with people who challenge my view, I have managed since 2003 and way before this when I was an admin on nthellworld.com, thanks so don't ever tell me what is best for me, I will decide what is best for me, not you or any body else.

The other thing is, you have not challenged me whatsoever, just argued, because this is your style of posting on here and one thing I have noticed as well, you only seem to want to argue with me when it is not just me who thinks along same lines as me, for example, Rizzyking said same stuff as me about Madonna, I am sure Pierre, also felt the same way too, I am sure he will correct me if I am wrong, given he said 'Fair enough' to me because I said derogatory stuff about her for the stupid things she has said.

One thing I want to make very clear to you. I do not post as an Admin, I am still a user of this forum and I am entitled to my view point, if you or anyone else don't like it, tough, which you seem to struggle with, you attempt to attack me from one angle and I tell you that's not what I said, you have made that up, so you then try and attack me from another angle and I also tell you you're wrong on that one too, so then you try another angle and so on then when you get things wrong, which you clearly have or fail when you have made things up, you then start to cherry pick (was not only one who said you do this) and so on. It is a vicious circle with you martyh and I am bored with your style of debating, so feel free to make whatever you want up in your next reply to me, because no doubt, you will come back to me, only this time I am going to ignore it, let's move on and agree to disagree as I suggested to you earlier.

How about people wait and see how his presidency goes, rather than judge him after 1 day.
I certainly think Social Media and everyone else should leave his son out of it..and let's wait and see is a much better reaction..although I think calling him and his associates out on certain issues is perfectly legitimate as and when they arise.

I think I saw someone else (Pierre) that we do not need a minute by minute or second account of everything he does.

Besides this is a distraction from the real question. Is Trump wearing a wig?

Completely agree, whatever view points people have on The President and they are strong ones clearly - let's keep them aimed at him, he can clearly take it and he will no doubt probably come back with a rebuttal on Twitter, as that is his style, but attacking a 10 year old boy because he is the presidents son, is very pathetic.

I think I have seen this morning that the daughter of Hillary Clinton, Chelsea, has come out and defended the presidents ten year old son.

The President got elected, not his family, so I'm in favour of leaving them out. I don't think his actions should be ignored for six months though, much as it might be convenient for him and his followers.

Is that you Arthur? Thanks for the insightful contribution to the debate.

Puppets? Because you're not following the crowd of people that suddenly found the ability to predict the future after Trump was elected? Rather similar to those that claimed the UK was dead when the Tories came back to power. You know because you don't like the party or candidate you must alert the world of impending doom... Puppets vote for the same thing over and over again...

A wild card appears and the ones that voted him are puppets?

Everyone's up in arms, it's fascinating because they'd rather spend so much time and effort making their point against him rather than find out how they ended up in a position where people actually wanted him to be President.

Re: US Election 2016

Why did Spicer lie? This article explains why.
The final tactic is not to convince the undecided third of untrue things, it's to fatigue them so that they will stay out of the political process entirely, as they will regard the truth as too difficult to determine.

Get a grip for goodness sake....

Why is it disgusting ? No it is not disgusting at all. People have a choice who they see sworn in. It's called democracy, people support one candidate or the other, so you and others need to stop attacking it.

Get it right Mick!

An article on twitter from an unnamed source.

The comment piece isn't portraying itself as fact. Why does it need a source?

Does it really matter ? It's been 3 days since Jan 20th and the crowd issue just won't die.

The press spun a line, trying to show us something that was not accurate, they also said the crowds did not go back to the Monument, yes they did give it 10 or 15 yards, so press secretary Spicer spun a line back at them that has not gone down well.

I think it just needs to be accepted by both sides that, while Trump did not beat 2009 Inauguration crowds for Obama, he still had a significant amount of people there, more so than the images in the press and memes were being compared with. I have already showed the inconsistency with the Press photos they were using to mislead folk with, via the CNN link to the gigapixel photo that allows you to move around the photo and zoom in and out and you could hardly say CNN manipulated the photo, given the stance Trump has taken with CNN lately.
