Thats a little harsh. He has managed and overseen what would seem to be (at face value) a very successful global business and is a billionaire. Idiot's don't achieve such success.

If what has been reported is true, what exactly has he done wrong. Morally to some, having sex in a hotel with one or more unknown girls might not sit comfortably, but what exactly is the offence?

Have you never heard of leading by example ?

There is no denying that he is a very wealthy man and he's spent his life doing what ever he wants.
As President elect (President in a weeks time) do you not think that he should be thinking a little more about what he says and how he behaves ?

I must be from a bygone era when people in pubic office had somewhat higher personal and ethical standards.

I'm sure that his wife must be really impressed

John Major was 'banging' Edwina. JFK, Hollande........... I could go on and on

It's not an offence, its just your take on it. How do you know what Trump and his wife have agreed on as acceptable marital practice, again just you believing what you do is the right thing. There is no one fits all I'm afraid.

You say he does what he wants, don't you? If you don't like fishing you don't go.

He has said what he said during the campaign and the Yanks have voted him in. Its US politics? Lots in the UK complained when Obama came here meddling in our politics on Brexit.

Brilliant, we clearly have different views on how people should behave.

Even though I will never swim in the same pond as Trump and his ilk and nor would I want to, everyone should have some kind of moral compass, its what differentiates us from the rest of the animal kingdom.

Youll be condoning his views on Muslims, Homosexuals, Women, Mexicans and some of the other minority groups that he's had a go at in recent months.

This latest episodes was just the cherry on the cake.

Re: Trumped up? : Fri Jan 13, 2017 7:15 pm  

What differentiates us from the rest of the animal kingdom is quite the opposite of what you say - it's our propensity for gratuitious destruction and evil.

Yeah, right.
If he builds a wall/ fence too separate Mexico and The States, he will need every bricklayer and steel fabricator in the country and he has to firts of all work our how to get Mexico to pay, it should be interesting.

Well thats the end of the Asians trade deal they've been working on for years. I can't see the EU getting one any minute soon. Lets hope 'his Maggie' might be able to sweet talk him with a trip to see the Queen as a trade off for a UK deal

Given that the USA is the only major economy we have a trade surplus and balance of payments surplus with and Trump wants to end trade deals that the US loses from then methinks dirty Maggie May had best keep quiet about trade deals.
