letters from trump to Alex salmond have been released.

I like the way Salmond describes his letters, towards the end of the article.

Very, very glad the less dangerous of the two candidates won. Imagine how scary it’d have been otherwise:

@realDonaldTrump

The United States must greatly strengthen and expand its nuclear capability until such time as the world comes to its senses regarding nukes

Breaking: Donald Trump touched Saints ball.

Obama has spent the last eight years upgrading the US’ entire nuclear arsenal. The US military has been developing a tactical nuclear capability for use in conventional wars for some time.

The US has already arguably not come to its senses on nukes. They’ve spent thinking time making them thinkable.

In this Poll who actually got it correct ?

Published quite some days ago but I’ve only just seen it:

Essentially, ex British diplomat states that he passed the podesta files to WikiLeaks and that he didn’t get them from the Russians.

Topical again today given diplomatic expulsions by Obama yesterday.

The BBC are running stories about Trump and Russia. Trump does himself no favours by angrily refuting claims that Russia supported him on Twitter. It’s just not really statesmanlike, to conduct your business in 140 characters.

the BBC include a link to This document which briefly outlines what the CIA/FBI condfiently say happen

The Irony of Americans whinging about electoral inference, when their leader happily got stuck into the referendum issue.

I don’t understand this. In his press conference just now, trump said this:

Asked again about Russia’s alleged interfering in the US election, Mr Trump says President Putin ā€œshouldn’t be doing it, he won’t be doing itā€.

ā€œRussia will have far greater respect for our country,ā€ he added, but ruled out any ā€œreset buttonsā€.

does that mean that he now accepts that hacking did happen and that it isn’t fake news as he described earlier?

If you don’t live in the US, I reckon Trump’s daily outbursts could become the funniest comedy boxset of our times.

He has all the potential to do or say something stupid everytime he gets out of bed.

We will run out of popcorn before he runs out of stupidity.

Spitting images ā€œthe presidents brain is missing gagā€ will get lost in the amount of material that is going to be available.

As the ā€˜tyrant’ takes over at the behest of the ā€˜obedient mob’, take a look at this viewpoint from Roger Kimball. It really is a superb and elegant little piece of analysis. **Does Democracy lead to Tyranny? **

what’s everyone doing to celebrate the big day tomorrow? I’m going to work dressed as uncle Sam and I’m going to eat lots of beef jerky

Apparently, he’s so desperate to get people to attend that he has sent out a general invite to anyone and everyone on facebook:

They reckon he’ll get about 900k people attending (including a lot of protestors). Obama had closer to 1.8 million people at his inauguration.

Also, he can’t get anyone famous to sing. This is a thing, apparently. Obama had Aretha Franklin at his first and Beyonce at his second. Trump has got some girl who came second in America’s Got Talent six years ago.

I’m having a curry tonight so I’ll probably have a massive post-curry dump in trap 3 in the office. I’ll think of Donald though and may do a trump of my own to mark the occasion…
