Trump Inauguration speech.

I do think it's interesting how their (extremely rich people) minds work. I don't blame them as such, it's the sphere they're in. During his speech when talking about the LA fires, he pointed to the billionaires behind him and said to the effect 'these people lost their home, and they're rich, they have no home, it's a disgrace.' Or to that effect.
Now whether it was Trump being serious or saying something he knew would be contentious I'm not sure. However if he was simply making the point and being serious, I didn't think it was the best thing to say. Yes, multi millionaires and billionaires will have lost their home in those fires and that's terrible. However in many cases it will be one of many homes they own and even if their only home, it's not exactly a hardship to hole yourself and your family up in a five star hotel or wealthy friends home until you buy/build yourself something new. Or simply relocate to another city or country.
It would have played much better if he'd ignored the billionaires and mentioned the plight of ordinary Americans. However, he no doubt knows what his base want to hear.
What are you on about what was it a couple of dozen so called security experts said it was Russian disinformation . Which was a lie

Admitting your defending Trump yet?
Or saying he was wrong?
It's simple enough, why won't you say which side of the fence you're on ? We can only go on your swerving and avoidance otherwise
Go with whatever makes you happy I'm not bothered you clearly are.

I'm bothered by what Trump has done to law and order.
I am interested who supports and defends him, or criticises his actions.
You are down as a supporter.
Law and order is an easy enough thing to support or not

Big respect to 'Maga Granny'Sweet,
Convicted US Capitol rioter Pam Hemphill turns down Trump pardon
Former "Maga granny" Pamela Hemphill tells the BBC the Trump government is trying to "rewrite history".
"Accepting a pardon would only insult the Capitol police officers, rule of law and, of course, our nation," she said.
"I pleaded guilty because I was guilty, and accepting a pardon also would serve to contribute to their gaslighting and false narrative."
One wonders whether the orange one's disciples on here will condemn her decision?
The right don’t like free speech
A representative of the Republican party in the United States has called for an American Bishop to be “deported” after she told President Donald Trump to his face that “trans children and immigrants are scared of you’.
“There are gay, lesbian and transgender children in both Democratic, Republican and independent families who fear for their lives.”

Speaking at Trump’s inaugural prayer service, Bishop Mariann Budde, who was born in the US and is a US citizen, said: “Millions have put their trust in you.“There are gay, lesbian and transgender children in both Democratic, Republican and independent families who fear for their lives.”
An article just popped on Yahoo saying this policy is extremely unpopular. It only has just under 35% support and that has been the case for decades. I'm a bit surprised by that.
