Trumps Polish Speech

[fender62]

listening to his speech, he used a lot of innuendo on various topics, one that stood out was the liberal elite who seem to be governing parts of europe, i think he means merkel macron junker etc, and that countries will loose their identity, with mass migration from africa dilution if you like and possibly civil unrest, what do other abers think.

[New Judge]

I think he's right (especially the last sentiment you mentioned).

[scooping]

He's right, his hosts, the Polish government, are right and to do nothing will cause more tension, more racism and more pressure on existing institutions.

[Guilbert53]

>>>and that countries will loose their identity

Why do people use LOOSE when they mean LOSE?

LOSE is the opposite of win (you are going to LOSE your job).

LOOSE is the opposite of tight (my trousers are LOOSE).

Guilbert53, typo on a pad im using in a moving car...oh dear unloosed the spell police...

[New Judge]

“Why do people use LOOSE when they mean LOSE?”

I think some people commit genuine typos (like Fender, here) as today’s technology makes that easy to do. Other people simply cannot spell because they have been told that it does not matter and they believed what they were told.

There their they're. :)

What, like building in spellcheckers? :P

[-Talbot-]

How would a spellchecker know if you meant loose or lose?

[naomi24]

Who cares? We know what he's talking about.

I think Mr Trump is right.

[fender62]

pointing out spelling mistakes, are some trying to flame my op and not answer the question, or put it another way, make me look like an idiot and that my opinion look irrelevant because the grammer is not correct.

[ummmm]

Hope you aren't the driver!

Trump uses nothing but innuendo in his speeches irrespective of which country he happens to be in.

[jim360]

"Then, 19 years later in 1939, you were invaded yet again, this time by Nazi Germany from the west and the Soviet Union from the east. That's trouble. That's tough."

Wow, he really nailed the situation of Poland in WWII didn't he?

[naomi24]

Pretty much.

[jim360]

It sounds a little to my ears like "Hard cheese, Poland." -- but to be fair, Trump often sounds like that so I don't for a second think he meant to belittle the horror. Just found it amusing.

[naomi24]

Amusing. Okay.

[jim360]

Yes. OK. Glad we are in agreement :)

[naomi24]

We're not - but you have you have your point of view.

[jim360]

Yeah, I figured we weren't in agreement really.

What do you make of the part of the speech where he's crying for religion to be much more at the centre of the Western world?

'As I stand here today before this incredible crowd, this faithful nation, we can still hear those voices that echo through history. Their message is as true today as ever. The people of Poland, the people of America, and the people of Europe still cry out "We want God."'

[naomi24]

Jim, Like you, he has his point of view, but from my own perspective unless the western world gets a grip, before long religion will be the centre of the western world – but it won’t be the religion the western world is accustomed to.
