He’s insufferable. No wonder Emily Maitlis left.

This “go home” thing is weird - this is our home.

Are his grandkids seeing this?! Does his youngest son really think this is ok?

Trump just wanted the “win” and the adulation.

Putin is clearly threatening Trump with something unless he makes Ukraine “end the war”. Every time they meet/talk T goes in all guns blazing and comes out deflated.

Hopefully. But he did say if he won they would never need to vote again. Scary. I can’t see him admitting defeat ever.

I meant the ones who wouldn’t vote at all for either candidate for various reasons. We know his followers are in a cult.

Indeed. He serves no purpose in the monarchy and is at this stage just enjoying the luxuries and pomp. How about community service for the rest of his miserable life.

I wonder if those 36% of voters who didn’t bother voting because of “female” or “black” are now beginning to regret it?

How to say you hate ordinary people without actually saying so 🤮💩🤡

welshswede.bsky.social @welshswede.bsky.social · 8h

It’s almost funny. They must have realised that most of their ”enemies” are all in one place 😆😆😆

What is the point of this pampered entitled individual?

welshswede.bsky.social @welshswede.bsky.social · 12h

I know that, do they sit around looking at spreadsheets and bank statements? What’s the point of hoarding obscene personal wealth?

As a non-British person aged 71 I feel decidedly uncomfortable being called “love”.

welshswede.bsky.social @welshswede.bsky.social · 12h

I would have walked out. What a prat.

welshswede.bsky.social @welshswede.bsky.social · 12h

Depends on what the Exchequer decides to spend it on.

The richest woman in Britain owns a betting company. What that tells you is that the punter is the loser.

welshswede.bsky.social @welshswede.bsky.social · 13h

The thing is these super rich individuals won’t even feel the pinch if they’re taxed a teeny bit more, they can still afford the caviar blinis, whereas 1% on personal tax PAYE for the average person hurts a lot.

Forgive a stupid question - but what do they do with all that money stashed away? You can only have so many superyachts before it gets a bit boring?

#Tax is controversial. Tax on betting is perfectly reasonable - don’t gamble - don’t pay the tax, it’s a choice. Don’t forget the richest woman in Britain owns Bet365.

welshswede.bsky.social @welshswede.bsky.social · 13h

And nobody can do anything about it. There won’t be any mid-terms, it’s clear he hates the people.

Yet this idiot has the power to wreck a country with a scribbled signature.

welshswede.bsky.social @welshswede.bsky.social · 13h

I love going to #Caerphilly, but without the stunning castle it would be just another stagnant valleys town. Please do not put #Reform in charge.

welshswede.bsky.social @welshswede.bsky.social · 13h

Yes I should have specified that 😆 unfortunately they are awake and voting.

welshswede.bsky.social @welshswede.bsky.social · 13h

All Trump can think of in response to #NoKings is “SH*T”.
