It's truly incredible that a President of America should act in this manner, how is he going to be removed from The White House, I'm sure he won't leave voluntarily.

It may be that when he is removed, he should be taken to a place where his mental problems can be assessed and addressed, because it seems to me that he certainly has some.

God help his wife and America.

I'm surprised she's stayed this long.

Nothing surprises me about how America conducts its own version of Democratic process. Thankfully within a couple of years, China will replace it as the worlds economic and military superpower. The American century ended rather spectacularly I think.

It was never going to end well with a spoilt brat with divide and conquer policies in charge.

Chaddy is a fool, to believe that an event like this has been ‘manipulated’ by the BBC or any media. As to his daughter giving him some ‘other’ view, that’s laughable. Word from the White House is that trump is seriously deranged and has been since losing the election and cannot do anything else. He had to be pleaded with to even make a video message after people had died. He refused to allow the national guard to come in and Pence had to OK it.

The ‘lead’ protestors/rioters/insurgents/terrorists are well-known QAanon leaders, known to the security services and a group that Trump has refused to condemn. A group that needs outlawed worldwide.

Just heard that a police officer has died after the riot, are we going to have a 'police lives matter' protest ?

Probably not.

Sorry, what relevance has this to the current situation in Washington? A police officer dying will have massive repercussions in this situation. You are insinuating that only Black people get attention - which is racist in itself.

Black people have had generations of persecution in the USA and it still happens. The White Supremacists that Trump has courted, became the white terrorists that stormed the Capital and killed a policemen.

That's very sad. I feel sorry for the Police, always on the front line and first for a kicking, be it physically or metaphorically. Not sure why racism has been dragged into it?

I'm not insinuating anything. I stated a fact, and asked a question.

You can't have it both ways, BLM was mentioned in this thread, and not by me.

All lives matter !

Why not ask Lloyd why he brought BLM into the thread.

It was racist as I see it.

Lloyd mentioned the grossly unfair leniency shown to the right-wing terrorists when Black Lives Matter and other groups were treated entirely differently and most news channels agree - some even stating that if it had been a BLM group storming the Capital, hundreds would have been shot.

That wasn't racism, in fact, the opposite.

As to bullying, nonsense, if you have a radical or controversial opinion to put out, then be prepared to defend it or face criticism.

All lives matter, police lives are of special importance to me.

As for the treatment of the mob, the right wing terrorists were incited to riot by their President, who knows what instructions were given to the police by him.

Bringing BLM into the equation seems to me to be inciting yet more trouble.

We shall see.

I find it amazing that only 4 people have died, considering the USA police departments' record for shooting people. I can't help wondering how many more would have been shot if the protestors had been black.

All this blood is on Trump's hands. He deserves to go to jail for the rest of his life, and should certainly be booted out of his office now.
Lloyd didn't bring race into this, I did. That is why I have quoted myself. So if you want to blame anybody, blame me.

And why not? It is a valid point. Do you honestly think that if the protestors were black they would have got anywhere near the building?
