Re：Politics Date Posted：2026-04-14 07:00:49Copy HTML Trump endorses Orbán of Hungary - Orbán loses the election, a warning there for Farage in teaming up with the toxic brand. don’t be silly, you’re letting your TDS Show again.Orban Lost to a man who was to the right of him. he had been in power for 15 years, people like a change every now and then, see Thatcher, the only prime minister quoted in the same sentence as Churchill since the second world war. what is not mentioned is the fact that the political left in Hungary has been wiped out and that’s the comical thing, the western media portrayed it as a reckoning for the far right and it couldn’t be anything more different. So what is the new leaders stance on Trump, do you know? Well, he certainly not anti-Trump |

Re：Politics Date Posted：2026-04-14 07:47:46Copy HTML It's in dire need of a serious strategy, keep Trump out of the planning as he has no idea other than "bomb, baby bomb". He has filled the top ranks with nodding dogs yes men who'll do anything he says, not the kind of leaders the world needs right how. Something had to be done about Iran and war was coming, but I feel that if it could have been held off for a few months in order to formulate a workable plan we wouldn't be where we are now. Trump keeps telling us Iran is desperate for a way out, so is he as he sees it slipping out of his control and into chaos. He is slowly becoming more erratic - Trump as Jesus! That's not a good sign in a serious world leader who's just started a war. As for Hungary, the new PM is a watered down version of Orbán, one not as friendly to Putin which can only be a good thing. Orbán held up a lot of aid the EU was aiming to supply to Ukraine, perhaps now it'll get through. I have to admire his immigration policies though. You're playing chess with Fate and Fate's winning.

Re：Politics Date Posted：2026-04-14 08:19:47Copy HTML The war is not being run by Trump, it is being run by his military. It is also being run by the Israelis, who will have their own way of doing things and organising policy. You like to think that Trump is sat in a room directing all the generals the Air Force the Navy giving them Direct orders et cetera. Trump is just one piece of the jigsaw the biggest piece but still one actor. The complexity of this whole thing is staggering and you for some reason think that Trump is sat on a gold throne looking down on a battlefield on a table before him and directing everything, you haven’t a clue what’s going on and I can tell you something the Israelis will not allow anybody to screw up this war with Iran. This war is being run by the military of both countries it is totally out of the league of Trump and he knows it. He’s a policy maker not a general. |

Re：Politics Date Posted：2026-04-14 08:25:08Copy HTML He has obviously filled the top jobs with yes men who don't appear to have much of an idea about how to get out of a sticky situation, but they do know how to please their erratic master. I genuinely think Trump is making up strategy himself and expecting his nodding dogs to follow it. How else is such a mess to be explained? You're playing chess with Fate and Fate's winning.

Re：Politics Date Posted：2026-04-14 09:37:56Copy HTML Such a mess? This war is, and has been carried out with a depth of sophistication unknown before. For a comparison I give you the other world super power, Russia, who are still fighting WW2 and losing. Do you know why the upper echelons of Trump's government are disliked by you? It has nothing to do with anything but their association with Trump. Had they worked for anybody else you would be praising them. Iran's nuclear ambitions, gone. Irans military, gone. Iran's top generals (18 of them) gone. Iran's original government, gone. The world is an infinitely safer place without the lunatics in Iran. Really Mark, you must learn to get a grip, see if you can overcome your mental affliction to the man and bring a level of reality to your reports on absolutely anything to do with him. Yes he's annoying and dictatorial but he's a habitual winner and always has been all his life. The Democrats ran a hundred dirty tricks campaigns on him, tried to jail him thirteen times, tried to murder him and here he is, with America having a level of respect amongst the less savioury nations of this earth unknown in a president for the last 60 years. Believe me, Russia and China know his worth and especially Europe, who have taken the US for granted for decades and frankly have treated them as children to be tolerated. Not any more. He turns up in Europe and they're fighting and elbowing each other to be next to him at the photoshoot. He's freed Venezuela, effectively kicking out the Chinese. He's blocked the tens of millions a year flooding over the border, an enemy within if there ever was one, see Minnesota for starters. He's the only president to take on the drug cartels and severely wreck their industry. Cleaned up the capitol city. etc. His time is now, he will be gone when the population don't want him anymore and there's nothing he can do about that. |

Re：Politics Date Posted：2026-04-14 09:46:06Copy HTML The Pope's getting it now for advocating...........wait for it.........peace, Trump is outraged at such liberalism. He should stick to sitting on the trillions worth of treasures his religion has stolen from the world and leave global politics to democratically elected politicians. Maybe he just wanted to lead the prayers for the 10 million Jews and 30 million Iranians that would have been slaughtered if Iran got a nuclear weapon. |

Re：Politics Date Posted：2026-04-14 11:43:10Copy HTML One last thing, truthfully, would you rather have Trump in number ten or Starmer? Neither, but if I had to chose it would be Starmer, he is someone easier to outwit than Trump, Trump would press ahead ignoring advice, lying to the public every day and making himself and his country hated around the world. At least Starmer doesn't portray himself as Jesus! Whatever way you look at it Trump is either stupid or a liar. He is both of course. |

Re：Politics Date Posted：2026-04-14 12:20:04Copy HTML You would have Starmer? You've got it very bad indeed. Have you watched the vid above? Do so and answer the question again and if the answer is still the same, well, seek help. |

Re：Politics Date Posted：2026-04-14 12:30:13Copy HTML Yes I have and despite several inaccuracies it's pretty good, although with all zealots they get carried away and lapse into provable nonsense. You're playing chess with Fate and Fate's winning.

To cut to the chase.....................If Iran can cut off the Strait with what they have now, just think of the terror they would be down the road if they had nukes. For some it is difficult to separate Trump's personality with his accomplishments. |

Re：Politics Date Posted：2026-04-14 09:38:09Copy HTML Don't let him send Vance to see the Pope, he killed the last one. VP Vance DID NOT kill Pope Francis. He had been sick and spent a long time, in the hospital. He had a stroke and died, https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pope_Francis . |
