Danny in truth I think there is a " trump world" in which he resides in.

[dannyk13]

You may well be right:-)

[anneasquith]

I think I am ;:-)

Gromit

Blimey the JCBs are out in force, both you and Jim360 stick to what you are apparently accusing him of.

Your original thread has nothing to do with "skipping school" or even "desperation in the Whitehouse".

Perhaps it would be safe to say that all your excuses seem to be about "Skipping School" and"Desperation in the News Section".

[ToraToraTora]

what's idiotic? did crime not rise 13%?

[jim360]

Er... that was an analogy to illustrate how bizarre it was to defend the headline's use of "amid".

[Gromit]

Tora,
Crime did rise 13%. And radical Islamic Terror did spread.
Trumped linked them, but they are unconnected.

[ToraToraTora]

he said "amid" which in English means that they are separate items so you are in agreement with what he said. Seems an odd post.

[dannyk13]

Gromit, read my post at 13.22.

[anotheoldgit]

It would seem that the establishment, the media and the anti-Trumps are scared stiff that Islam might in their eyes even be accused for the rise in crime (which they are not), simply because it might offend the ROP.

[ToraToraTora]

eg Amid the rain the sun came out. Trump seems to be separating the % crime rise from Islamic terrorism, which I think is what you'd want gromit. Is English your first language?

[ToraToraTora]

looks like gromit's gone to find a dictionary!

[Gromit]

Sorry I have been away Tora. I was busy sending dictionaries to the biased leftwing newspapers...

I was referring to your OP and the tweet you posted.

AOG and others....from the BBC link above :::

(Crime in England and Wales went up by 13% in the 12 months to June, fuelled by a 26% increase in knife crime and a 19% increase in sexual offences, according to the latest figures, published on Thursday.

The number of homicides (cases of murder and manslaughter) increased by 46 to 629, excluding the terror attacks in London and Manchester"

Note...."excluding the terror attacks in London and Manchester"

Maybe if we had some of those 20,000 Police Officers, that May got rid of when she was Home Secretary, we would be able to fight crime properly.

[naomi24]

Why is it an idiotic tweet? Isn't what he said about right?

[THECORBYLOON]

Where is the report he got the quote from?

[ummmm]

He 'apparently' quoted it from a right wing news station just minutes after it was reported by them. Same wording. This was according to ITV news this evening.

[anneasquith]

He needs a hobby to keep him occupied, ?!!

[ummmm]

I hear he likes golf.
