Using the term obsession to suggest the lefties are mentally defective when they criticise Trump is offensive and childish.

They criticise continually because Trump makes so many wrong decisions.

It's also possibly worth noting that here in the UK we're more exposed to Trumps activities (and especially his public ejaculations) that we are to the activities of Putin and Xi Jinping.

For a kick off - his are in English (sort of) so there's no barrier to anyone making a judgment on what his saying / doing.

There's also the small matter that he's going to be setting our trade policy come next year, when we go cap in hand to the US after burning all our more local bridges, so it might be that some folk are concerned at his ultranationalist posturing - seeing as how that will affect our economy.

"I just wonder why some people are so focussed on him when most of the things he does arent relevant to us."

As a Canadian friend once said to me. " Its like living next door to an elephant, most of the time its OK but if he gets a tooth-ache hell you are going to know about it."

Some of us are old enough to have discussed at length what happened in the interwar years with those who lived through it. Every time we hear Trump speak there are faint echos of those days that ring alarms. Out of those days came right wing tyrannies and a world war.

Not sure it’s just lefties interested in the performance of the US President, caca. Trump is currently the most powerful man in the world. Whether we like it or not all countries economies and global politics are inter-linked to the USA and its decisions. And watching his car-crash work as he & his team blunders around hopelessly in a crisis situation is fascinating, repelling & worrying. But well done on hooking a few, anyway.

"Everything Trump Touches Dies". He literally couldn't run a bath. Any man who thinks you need ID to buy groceries, says it all. Wonder what drugs he is on at the moment? He is bat sh*t crazy and vindictive as fook.

The trump plaza or whatever it was called in Atlantic city was so leveraged it became a worthless asset and try as he might to get it back he failed.

The asset wasn't worthless.

In the books of the Trump company that held it then yes it was But isn't this how Money Laundering works?

Was it ever his? Didn't his dad have to inject pure cash into it to keep it going or for other reasons?

Alpha male, seriously? Greenbacks are the only reason he's got to where he is. Look at the countless testimonies from anyone who has ever had the misfortune of getting too close to him, that tells you what sort of man he really is.

(Except for his current wife, but you can see from the look on her face most of the time what she's thinking).
Now let me think, this man is the free world leader. i.e President of the United States. Not many people get that job, He saw the gap in the market that appealed to people, they flocked to him, he delivers on what the voters wanted. Nailed on cert for re-election.
Now let me think, you are.... a nothing, taking swipes at a guy you know will ignore you and your like, what a sad thing you are.
Really? On what are you basing this rubbish?

Obama showed us what a real President should look and behave like, if only he was still in charge the USA wouldn't be f*cked like this. Still, you keep on spouting your tosh about what a great man this clown Trump is. Here's hoping the Americans wake up to him this time around.
Basing it on the fact he won the election to be President of the United States, the leader of the free world.
Being President brings obligations, i.e. defense of that world, Putin could see Obama was so weak that he began to expand Russia's sphere of influence by annexing land from other countries, Crimea, Ukraine, Obama sat by and done nothing because he was a weak figure head. Obama came in with such hope about him, went out like the busted flush and fake that he really was.

What has Crimea and Ukraine got to do with America?

Its like you say, the Presidents first obligation is to protect the USA.

Why did Putin help Trump get elected?

Can you post Trumps plans to retake these "Territories"/"Countries" please

1 As president Obama was defender of the free world, but shat himself when Putin acted.
2 As above.
3 Prove that he did, and why would he want to
4 You know as well as I do, possession is 9 tenths of the law, trying to retake without a nuclear war, could be a tad difficult

1. Prove it.
3. Difficult one to prove with hard evidence. But I suggest you look at his actions and behaviour since.

4. So 3 and a half year into a Trump Presidency nothing has happened. Thank you for conceding that point.
