    I don't need to. I've already seen loads of similar "analysis" by people with better qualifications.
    Breitbart, Fox and the like have been running this stuff for months.
    I'm going to assume that you believe that Trump's severely mentally ill, as loads of news outlets claimed that?

    It's just that you commented on it PNP, so I wondered if you'd watched it !

    It's worth a watch <ok>

    Edit : except for the first couple of minutes, which are admittedly bollocks.

    I think I'm going to refer Hillary as the "Iron Lady" after all the crap they've been throwing at her.She keeps coming back and that could make Trump's "hair" fall out!
    Anywaywith Bill Clinton as "First Lady",she won't stand for any nonsense.
    Put some padding in your trousers Putin!

    Medical problems didn't seem to be an important factor with Reagan, who was surely senile in his last years in office if not before!

    Another thing that really irks me with the Republicans, is their alleged backing of all things patriotic and military (ref US talk radio which I've heard quite a lot of). Yet when a bona fide war hero (Kerry) came up against the war dodger (Bush) they spent millions undermining Kerry's heroics in one of the (if not the) most despicable PR campaigns ever. This was then rubbed in by describing Bush as a "great war leader" during his presidency after 9/11 - when in fact he had the chance on the day itself to show some real leadership, but talked some bollocks then went into hiding for hours, proving he had no idea what leadership is.

    Trump had a comment about kissing his daughter removed from an interview with Dr Oz.
    He said that he kisses Ivanka with every chance that he gets. Thats ok, right?
    Why would he want something fairly endearing from reaching the public eye?

    Probably because he made previous comments about her hot body and how he'd probably be dating her, if they weren't related.
    That and the creepiest photos ever:

    Is there some context that makes that better? Please?

    Obviously if I said, "tbf she is hot" it would kind of miss the point.

    The context I would put it in though, is that I would rather have a person who fancies his daughter running the world, than a person who is responsible for destroying libya and syria, and half a million dead people already.

    Personally I don't really care that Clinton lies to the people voting for her about her health. I dont care that she is responsible for preventing the murder of a serving US Ambassador who was in her employment, because she didnt answer the phone. I don't care that she was responsibke for top secret emails being hacked because she defied protocol about using an unsecure phone. I don't even care that she and her husband's 'charity fund' is considered to be a fraudulant enterprise 3 times the size of the bernie maddof scandal, or that she would represent a risk of being the first US president to have seizures and collapse live on tv in front of foreign leaders etc. Just as I dont care that donald trump fancies his daughter or is rude about mexicans. What I DO care about, is that hillary clinton's foreign policy was responsible for the destruction of two countries, and the growth of terrorism around the world, and that her future foreign policy is based on continuing to support israel and saudi arabia come what may, to push russia into war, and to "obliterate" another country (iran).

    Trump is portrayed as the danger to world peace. The reality is that that is clinton. She's already responsible for destroying a decent little chunk of the world, and she's hell bent on a whole lot more of it. Donald Trump's going to perve on his daughter whether he's president or not. The only way Clinton gets to destroy the world I live in is if she gets voted in.

    So it doesn't bother you that he's in Putin's pocket and clearly plans to run the country for his own benefit?
    He's going to let his own children run his businesses and won't talk to them about his plans, apparently.
    Yeah, that's going to happen! <laugh>

    He still won't admit that Obama's American and said that he'd go to war with North Korea, who then endorsed him.
    He also stated that he'd attack Iran if their sailors made rude gestures to their American counterparts.
    He did dodge the draft though, so there's that.

    I get you do not like Clinton and with justification but seriously mate ... Trump is not rude to Mexicans, he is a lying racist **** who will cause endless problems. His foreign policies will be every much as (if not more so) dangerous.
    But I think anyone who talks about fancying their daughter is a dangerously sick person or has severe mental heath issues or is an outright ****.
    To think it is ok to publicly tell the world this and to now try and cover it up suggests a God like complex.
    Imo he is worse than Clinton which shows just how much of a scummy **** he is

    Clinton is hardly first prize in any choice to be made. But in the limited choice that the American public have, she has to be that choice.

    Trump is a megalomaniac, a sociopath, a liar, a cheat, a mysoginist, a hypocrite. A danger to world peace. And I'm just getting warmed up.

    Trump? No ****ing way.

    January 2016: Jeremy Corbyn suggests Britain and Argentina get around the table to have sensible negotiations about the Falkland Islands as they could be beneficial to both parties. The media slaughter him, David Cameron says they "gave (the Argentines) the Falklands" during PMQs, and Tory defence minister Michael Fallon calls Corbyn "a bigger threat to the Falklands than Argentina"

    September 2016: Theresa May sends Alan Duncan to Argentina to work on sensible negotiations between Britain and Argentina about the Falkland Islands that could be beneficial to both parties. There hasn't been a peep about her giving away the islands or being a bigger threat to them than Argentina.

    A round of applause for our point-missing media everyone!

    It's intentional. They didn't just miss the whole event by accident.
    The Tories did make it clear that sovereignty wasn't up for debate, though.

    I honestly don't get why any negotiations are necessary. It legitimises the Argentinian claims, if anything.
    Great Britain's claim to the island predates not only any Argentinian one, but Argentina itself.
    If they're protesting about imperialism, then they need to give their country back first and then the locals can open negotiations.

    It's a good job you don't care about those five Clinton things as at best one of them is partly true.
    I'm not a fan of US foreign policy either but to blame it on Clinton is ridiculous.

    His case would be more convincing if he didn't resort to slow motion so often. Who doesn't look a little strange in ultra slow motion replay. I notice he doesn't let the video roll on, as presumably the evidence of the disease is not so strong. His, acknowledged, bias is too obvious. Why not use a Doctor - maybe even a specialist - to give an opinion, rather than just this one man Trump propaganda machine.

    I can't believe anyone with such a terrible disease would put themselves though a Presidential campaign. Equally, why would the DMC go along with it, and not throw it's weight behind Sanders - who was looking very strong.

    None of the evidence of Parkinson's looked very clear to me. I know someone in the advanced stages of this disease and his illness is obvious 5 seconds after seeing him. I didn't see any of the shaking that is part of the condition. I've no idea what cutting edge medication can be used to ameliorate the symptons, but Muhammad Ali was never given anything that could cover the symptoms that Clinton presumably has.

    Or I could have just looked at the PNP's link which discredits the video quicker than I can. <grr>

    What do we make of Gazza's latest court appearance. My first instinct is to dismiss it as just Gazza, but it was a pretty nasty joke (asking a Black aide to smile so he could see him). Embarrassing for the guy in a public area who was employed to help him out. If it was John Terry I'd be demanding a custodial sentence, but as it's Gazza he gets away with it. Being totally objective is very hard.
