Political Tectonic Shift- A Brit's View of DJT
"Many of us watched with mounting frustration as four presidents in a row spread havoc around the world, lied, cheated and stole their way into the bosom of the media, robbed and plundered the American people, and created a life of tension and conflict for us all.
Waco, Columbine, 9/11, FEMA Camps, trillions of $ gone missing. Funding the IRA, Iran Contra, 7/7, Benghazi...Monica Lewisnsky...the Clinton Body Count, the phony Birth Certificate, FISA, false flags, airline crashes, civil disorder organised with Soros money. Rigged elections, illegal wars, assassinations.
It's a long list, and the crimes of the State had become the new normal which we wearily accepted because there was nothing we could do about it.
Until now.
Trump has rearranged the board, and is throwing double-sixes from breakfast to supper. The US economy is booming. The Mexicans and Chinese are in check. Here in Europe, liberal bureaurocrats are being shown the door and nationalists are being swept to power.
The media is cowed, and is in retreat. CNN is moribund, whilst the BBC is hastily rewriting the script, inserting a red pill or two into its anti-Brexit, anti-MAGA rhetoric.
Trump's State Visit to the UK has been a resounding success. He has altered the narrative and deployed his incredibly refreshing candour to wake up some sleepy heads here in London. Here is a man who speaks his mind, instead of merely parroting the script laid out for him by Deep State handlers.
Media pundits are scratching around for something bad to say about POTUS. It is a British tradition to seek out some slight, some breach of protocol, some perceived maladroitness in a visiting head of state's interaction with Her Majesty and her purview. None has been found. Trump behaved immaculately, and even entertained us with some salty words about the London Mayor - unprecedented for a foreign dignatory, and greatly appreciated by those of us who genuinely want truths uttered aloud, in place of the dreary blandishments we're used to hearing.
It is hard to over-state the Trump Effect upon the world. Americans don't need to travel: they have everything on their doorstep. Different time zones, different climate, landscape and weather. Hot or cold, plain or mountainous, rich or poor, coast or enclave: for an American, a journey of a thousand miles begins with a single car journey. All and everything lie at his feet.
Here in the Old Country, things are different. Travel a thousand miles and you are abroad, in a different world.
And the world is changing. The Trump effect is being felt. Make no mistake, the EU is melting down. We Brits are pulling out, and we are the guy-rope of the EU. Brexit is at risk, but Trump has given his support for our departure, and now that #FlyMayFly* is leaving, I rather think we are on course to recognise the June 2016 Referendum.
Take a look at the political landscape of Europe. It is changing fundamentally. We are in the midst of a sea-change. The starting gun was Brexit. The election of DJT, by you good people of the United States, was the defining moment that changed the world.
"The wheels of justice turn slow, but exceedingly fine."
Be patient, get right with the world, make your peace with friends and enemies alike. We live in interesting times."

Well Tom I would argue that it is not very difficult to look very residential, but I doubt low energy Jeb would have been able to keep up with the Presidents schedule of late, and forget about Hillary who must be hooked up to a machine for two days prior to going out.

One thing I can assure you that post no where near represents the view of the British public. It would have been nice if there was a credit to show where it came from. A quick google search shows it came from a website mainly frequented by the far right. The replies to the post on that site show it is full of racists and conspiracy theorists.
In fact Trump looked an idiot when saying in a press conference that the NHS would be on the table when discussing a trade deal then hours later- no doubt after being told that wouldn't go down well with the UK public and numerous politicians from all sides saying it wasn't for discussion- doing a complete U turn and saying it wouldn't.

British headlines were favorable from what we saw here.
As far as British people - we really don't care what they think
about anything.

Today we are announcing a forward rotation of additional service members to Poland.
I'd like to see a BCT rotation there but its certainly a step in the right direction.

Ideally we'd up our Baltic presence from 1 BCT to 4 or 5...
The bear could still swipe them away eventually but they'd pay a hefty price for it.
Either way this is a good move.

Putin did us all a favor in 2016.
He released the truth.
If you are looking for a serious enemy to this country, look at the DNC and Team Hillary.

President Trump has exposed many enemies most within America's own borders.
Today is Donald J. Trumps 73 birthday don't forget to tip a glass to him.(or two)
