Trump accused the reporter of “hurting Australia” with the line of questioning.
“In my opinion, you are hurting Australia very much right now,” Trump said. “And they want to get along with me.
“You know, your leader is coming over to see me very soon. I’m going to tell him about you. You set a very bad tone. You can set a nicer tone.”
Trump subsequently told Lyons: “Quiet.”
That's straight up how mob bosses talk
Well I'm fairly sure that most mob bosses have a vocabulary somewhat more sophisticated than that of a 6-year-old, but broadly yes.
Attitude of a mob boss. Brains of a spoiled toddler refused a juice/dummy.
Fuck off, you're the one who put tariffs on us
He's from the NYC real estate and construction scene. No surprise he imitates the guys he looked up to, saw as strong.
Hopefully he ends up like one. Either in prison or the other one that will get me branded an anti-fascist
Hey are you aware that your account is listed as a bot?
Good bot
Fuck Trump and fuck the Labour party for caving to him.
We don't really have a better alternative sadly. Independents tend to either sit between Labor and libs rather than left of Labor or lean hard into libertarianism economicly rather than socially; single issue candidates are usually right wing and/or religious psychopaths; the greens have good policy but are uncompromising on many issues so lose a lot of support due to misalignment with the opinion of the voter majority.
The responsible thing would be for all media to refuse to deal with him in the meantime.
He'd like that though. He doesn't like the media asking him questions pointing out inconvenient truths. If mainstream media stopped engaging with him all that would be left is fox, which will broadcast whatever he tells them to.
They should talk ABOUT Trump but without Trump.
Asking leaders of the American regime questions is hate speech.
“A lot of your allies say hate speech is free speech,” Mr Karl said, to which Mr Trump responded: “She’d probably go after people like you because you treat me so unfairly. It’s hate. You have a lot of hate in your heart.”
lol trump is such a weak ass baby
Maybe as a result we get to see slightly fewer broadcasts of the UK govt capitulating to a spoilt man-baby make it over here in Australia.
What a coward.
What? But they CANCELLED Jimmy Kimmel like he ASKED! What MORE could Daddy Twump want?
Read the fucking article. It’s a different ABC.
🤣
Maybe that's the joke.
General Discussion for politics in the UK.
Please don't post to both [email protected] and [email protected] .
Pick the most appropriate, and put it there.
Posts should be related to UK-centric politics, and should be either a link to a reputable news source for news, or a text post on this community.
Opinion pieces are also allowed, provided they are not misleading/misrepresented/drivel, and have proper sources.
If you think "reputable news source" needs some definition, by all means start a meta thread. (These things should be publicly discussed)
Posts should be manually submitted, not by bot. Link titles should not be editorialised.
Disappointing comments will generally be left to fester in ratio, outright horrible comments will be removed.
Message the mods if you feel something really should be removed, or if a user seems to have a pattern of awful comments.
