Trump vs Every other Pres

[Tommy Tainant]

There will be about 250k protesters out today in London and there will be regional protests around the UK.

I have never seen anything like it although the visit of the Chinese leader caused a lot of disruption a few years back.

But the US is our ally and Presidential visits have never generated this level of hostility. Obama was treated like a rockstar and even Bush Jnr was given the respect he probably didnt deserve.

So why this time ?

Firstly forget about any Dem/Gop partisanship. Very few people over here have any interest in that relationship. Not enough to take a day off work anyway.

Its not really anti Americanism either although there will be some elements their. People dont like Americas oil wars or their propping up Israel. But again that is nothing new, it has always been there.

In the UK we watch American films,listen to American music and our cultures are heavily influenced by the US.

The issue is Trump himself. He is seen as a living breathing manifestation of everything wrong with humanity. Misogyny , racism, greed,lying, cheating, narcissism, I could go on.

These are the key issues that I think are driving the protests.

1. Climate change. The US should be leading on this but Trump is in the pocket of fossil fuel interests. This affects all of us and is huge.

2. Womens rights. Abortion is only an issue in Northern Ireland which is at least a generation behind modern Britain.People can see hard fought rights being taken away from their sisters in the US by right wing loons.The fear is that what happens in the US today comes to Europe tomorrow.

3. Racism. The Muslim ban shocked folk over here. We all have Muslim friends . Singling out one group for special treatment has been tried before and is Un American.

4. The NHS. People are terrified that a post brexit deal with the US will introduce the more barbaric elements of US healthcare into the UK. Trump wants it and our government would do anything to get a deal with the US. Scary times.


I am sure there are other issues but these seem to be the main ones. The good news is that it will all go away with Trump and it will be business as usual with his successor. The bad news is that liberal values are under threat across the world. We havent moved on too much from the gas chambers.

I know he has a strong personal base. I can imagine how they will react to this post. I am just trying to explain why the US President is so hated in the UK.

1. Climate change. The US should be leading on this but Trump is in the pocket of fossil fuel interests. This affects all of us and is huge.
we are
we're the only industrialized nation to lower emissions
why haven't you care bears followed our lead ? to busy crying ?
for starters the continentals clearly need to ban diesel engine passenger cars for a good 10 years
it would clean their heavily polluted air ..especially during the summer months.

2. Womens rights. Abortion is only an issue in Northern Ireland which is at least a generation behind modern Britain.People can see hard fought rights being taken away from their sisters in the US by right wing loons.The fear is that what happens in the US today comes to Europe tomorrow.
womens rights ?
ok if you guys say so ...but in what US state is abortion illegal ?
the left loves regulations ...states are free to regulate it .
3. Racism. The Muslim ban shocked folk over here. We all have Muslim friends . Singling out one group for special treatment has been tried before and is Un American.
Shock and fake outrage ? im shocked
wot Muslim ban ? their was no general Muslim ban ?
just an immigration issue from certain countries
AND Muslim IS NOT A RACE you retards

4. The NHS. People are terrified that a post brexit deal with the US will introduce the more barbaric elements of US healthcare into the UK. Trump wants it and our government would do anything to get a deal with the US. Scary times.
Government has already ruined our health care system and yours
but they'll fix it for everyone next time ....i'm sure


can we get pictures of all the commie/ socialist groups that show up since the MSM wont show em ?

UK has a huge Leftist element. These persons are for open borders, Islamic domination, awful economy and loss of British culture and history. On the other side you have Brexit supporters. 250k is a tiny % of the population.

Lastly, Trump is polarizing. That is true whether you like or dislike him.

1. Climate change is a joke, as a reason. The US wasn't moving with you before TRump, and won't be after. Neither will China. Hell, how are YOU guys doing on that?


2. Abortion is not a woman's rights issue. That is a lie told by pro-Abortion people. And nothing that happens here, makes it happen there.

3. THe way that your government allowed mulsim rape and slavery rings to operate for years, shows that you are the ones giving out special treatment.

4. Trade will not effect internal British policies. Your socialism is your choice. That is an extremely weak excuse for your anti-Americanism.

It doesn't matter ... you have no choice.

Stupid Brits don't realize that their protests of an American president have no effect on who Americans will vote for.

You all should use your time on something more productive

Actually ... it has a big influence.

In 2004, The Guardian, England's largest leftist newspaper, ran advertisements in many swing states urging Americans not to re-elect President Bush.

President Bush actually did very well everywhere those ads ran. Exit-polling identified a strong backlash from the British interference.

I'm truly hoping they pull the same stunt against President Trump in 2020. Should make his inevitable re-election even more one-sided.

But the picture of all the protesters together was quite a sight. Some mobilization it was. It isn't even their business really. At all.

All true but approving of BO by such a large margin over Donnie, proves they are easily duped by the ruling class. BO was a warmongering corporatist entirely controlled by the transnational capitalist class. Donnie may be too.

That is foreign money not protests in the UK

Do you really think those wankers standing around with signs have the money to buy enough ad space to make any difference?

Why did you have to state the obvious to someone that is oblivious to the fact?

I mean you have the op'er showing that his country preferred Obama over Trump, so ya know they only see what the BBC tell them and are ignorant to the fact even though Trump is all the OP'ER wrote the reality is Obama was also owned by the same exact people and let me be even clear Obama was owned by those like Trump...

( Watch the racist comments come flying because I wrote Obama was owned when in reality he was just like every politician)

You were once a nation of men. Much of your living standards was and is based on it today. Live in squalor to prove your point. But you won't. Also, remove the City of London financial district from your nation. You don't need it anymore. None of you. I mean none of you live with the ones you so much feel bad for unless you are from that. Frauds!

Well everyone can have racist views but as you pointed out Islam is not a race so to claim Trump actions is based on race is a little far fetch on that one but could it because of his bigoted view?

Well now there could be a debate.

Had Tommy used Mexico or Central America in his claim for racism then maybe but one has to know why Trump truly hate Mexico has to do with a law suit and less about what he is selling to those that voted for him.

Is Trump a racist?

Most likely seeing all humans have a racist and bigoted view...
