    He doesn't care about his arguments being right, though.
    He cares about headlines and support. That's why his arguments are simplistic.

    For his target audience, maybe. But they’d listen if he said the moon was blue. However he’s hardly liable to gain any converts ( with half a brain anyway) with his arguments. Most of which have already been publicly deconstructed by either journalists or other politicians.

    I kind of get why the dumb ****, middle America, Fox News watching, MAGA obsessed morons buy into his rhetoric but anyone else who supports him is, as you say, a complete ******.

    A real American hero. And Trump has the nerve to belittle him and his time as a pow!

    And there are people still willing to support the scumbag.

    I lived there for 4 years. For me, he’s merely exposed the self indulgent, bigoted, hypocritical underbelly of middle America that was always there.

    A bit like Brexit, it just took the election of one of their own to bring them crawling out into the open.

    Saw him making a speech the other day and there were plenty of Women for Trump placards. I mean, seriously, wtf does he have to do to lose the women's vote over there? Do some bloke's missus live on primetime?

    Gavin Williamson has astounded army chiefs with his latest idea of defence by all accounts, he's on about guns on tractors and ferries ffs, I would be up for an AK-47 in my car like around York but I'm sure the Russians will be laughing their tits off at this clown..

    Having seen what the makers of AK47 have just unveiled I'm not sure they are in a position to take the mick.
