President Donald Trump's phone conversations with the two British prime ministers who served during his first term were apparently so madcap that they left staff at Number 10 Downing Street in tears.

Donald is an evil clown carrying around a glass container of gasoline while smoking a cigarette.

He is stupid-looking, and he is funny, but he's going to burn something up.

Yea, merca is now a laughing stock.

When we travel, I am embarrassed to say I'm from the usa.

I just say north america.

Well Zed, a cigarette has a close to zero chance of igniting gasoline so ... Might want to find a new analogy there bud.

As for you Bat, when I traveled overseas back in the Fall I found myself in a Spanish cafe. There was an American and a Brit speaking and the American was going on and on about how Kamala was going to win; my wife saw me smirking as we were about to leave. As we walked out, I turned to the Brit and said don't listen to this looney lib and told the American, have fun losing in November. Some people just don't get it.

Trump is a traitor to the United States of America and a National Embarrassment.

Trump personifies "The Ugly American." And Norma Desmond.

Think he cares?
Of course he does, his narcissistic personality is why he ran this last time, why he is taking after all those who slowed down his grifting ways last time, I would imagine if he has his way and Jim Mattis and his former Chief of Staff, who both said he was a fascist to his core, would be tried for ....defamation.
I have no doubt, utterly no doubt, that he is cooking up a way to make the UK pay for laughing at him. Trump serves Trump, not the American people.

He's a moron. But he knows how to sell ---- sandwiches to people dumber than him.

Donald Trump is a poor man's idea of a rich man, a weak man's idea of a strong man, and a stupid man's idea of a smart man.

People all over the world laugh at Trump. just like last time. He is a mutant clown with a pretense of being a leader.

Problem is, the clown is insane. Donald is quite capable of launching a nuclear strike to avenge humiliations.

If we take over Greenland we'll just have more ungrateful welfare demanding parasite new "citizens". They'll all pour out of that godforsaken tundra and move to south of the Mason-Dixon line. That's all we need.

You were probably the type of American that makes being American embarrassing.

@#6 ... Some people just don't get it. ...

Nice anecdote, but that sample of one is quite irrelevant to the thread topic.

Stated differently, why are the leaders one of the United States' closest allies, if not the closest ally, apparently laughing at the President?

To be honest, I would laugh as well, if if were not for the evil that Pres trump seems to be raining upon the Country.

I for one got it from the beginning. There was no way she would win. The key is understanding people. Most people like you are gullible suckers of mediocre intelligence. I say that not looking down on you, just understanding human nature.

1. She is a Woman.
2. She is Brown.
3. Too many people didn't understand the inflation, the causes, that many many prices were already coming down and they didn't care.
4. Too many people were fixated on the border, didn't see what was actually going on and were fooled by the GQP, Xitter and Truth Social.
5. Too many Middle age white folks are not happy with their lot in life and lust for the good ole days of UNION wages and Pensions.
6. Too many people didn't understand COVID and not enough of them died.

Combine all those and there is no way she wins.
