"that was a different London than you have today. Today you have people being stabbed in the ass or worse... it's crazy," he said.

Donald needs to stop believing all the bullshit Fox News and their ilk are spewing out. Because the only thing involving asses in this situation is Trump talking out of his (yet again).

Anyone else remember the Harris/Trump debate where his evidence for "They are eating the pets" was indeed "I saw it on TV"?

Actually watching street fights from years ago in a different city...

But what is remembered more? POTUS utterance or the debunk?

If it discourages Trump from coming to London, I'm sure most Londoners would be fine with him staying deluded.

He also needs to stop embellishing his logorrhea with qualifiers like "or worse", "or better" etc.

stabbed in the ass or worse

It tickles the imagination in a way that probably wasn't intended and makes no sense.

I mean, the orange man was just trying to help the met police. He offered to send troops to deal with the crime.

Wish Starmer would stop being such a pussy and stand up to the bully.

Rapist felons in American should never complain about crime anywhere ever. We are the crime-ridden shithole because we let rich white people get away with everything under the sun.

Trump is gearing up to roll in the troops.

If there's one thing I know about the Brits it's that when they say "nonsense" they mean "complete and total bullshit"

If there's one thing I know about Americans it's that when they say "bullshit" they mean "utter poppycock, twaddle and codswallop."

Nah, they mean “I know it sounds unlikely, but I’m still too credulous to actually disbelieve it”. Or they would if they had such an expansive vocabulary. It probably sounds like “Woo Yah” in their heads.

I mean isn't that what nonsense is?

Well, Trump is talking nonsense about any topic he speaks of...

Fix your own fucking country orange clown.

"driven by politics"

Understatement of the year. Factually 100% correct but I don't think anybody bothered to even point that out in US politics for a long time.

Nonce sense!
