Cable Forum - President Trump 2.0

AlJazeera news page has a 'story' about Trump thinking of charging a toll for ships using the Strait of Hormuz once the war (that he's already won twice this month) is over. It's so ridiculous it could be true :D

Yes Yes, Aljazeera blah blah, but to be honest at least it's not stale safe and sanitized like the truly awful BBC news pages, that's like reading the heavily redacted notes from a Womens Institute meeting :rolleyes:

Re: President Trump 2.0

We know that the BBC, in one way or another, redacts what its lefties don't want to report. And if not now, then up to now.

But where is the evidence of redaction from Women's Institute notes?

By all means slag off the BBC, Labour, Trump - but not the WI unless you can put up!

Trump said U.S. spies had eavesdropped on conversations among Iranian civilians indicating support for the bombing. He started the war by calling on the country’s people to rise up and overthrow the government.

 “They would be willing to suffer that in order to have freedom,” he said. “We’ve had numerous intercepts: ‘Please keep bombing’ — bombs that are dropping near their homes — ‘Please keep bombing. Do it.’”

This wasn't on my Trump bingo card!

I doubt it is a stunt to distract from the failed war with Iran as some have suggested. Maybe someone was about to release something about her, and this denial is to make them think twice?

Melania Trump delivers surprise statement at White House to address Epstein relationship 'lies'

Melania Trump says she "never had a relationship" with the disgraced paedophile Jeffrey Epstein.

She criticised what she called "lies" linking her to the late sex offender in a surprise address filmed in the Grand Foyer of the White House.

The First Lady said the claims were "defaming her reputation".

"The lies linking me with the disgraceful Jeffrey Epstein need to end today," she said.

"I ⁠am not Epstein's victim," she added. She also called for a congressional hearing for survivors.

Mrs Trump also said she had never had a relationship with Epstein's associate Ghislaine Maxwell, with whom she said she had only a casual correspondence.

Re: President Trump 2.0

Right . . well if everyone is getting their excuses in early, I'd like it to go on record that I've never met, had a conversation with, or exchanged emails with that Epstein bloke, the Giselle bird, Donald (& wife), or Prince Andrew.

I will however, shamefully admit to (a long while ago) having to accompany my wife to a couple of concerts - namely Michael Bolton and Phil Collins - for which I am eternally damned :(

Re: President Trump 2.0

He's taking a lot of liberties on that account of his, it seems he's deliberately trying to upset everyone in the World by having a pop at them.

He'll get away with it though . . until he has a go at pensioners and the triple lock . . THEN he'll see how much trouble he's in. :D
