For now, let`s just allow him to get on with it and see what he`s made of. Certainly, most of those objecting to him seem to be creepy lefties who need to be put back in their boxes.
But, above all, STOP using the vomit-inducing expression "the special relationship". Those few Americans who have even heard of it regard it and us with amused contempt, at best.

Chris, "special relationship" is an expression used by both Theresa May and Donald Trump.

is that your Borg designation, ninefingers?

I know it is, Danny - but American politicians (no doubt including Trump) think that the Brits will have a fit of the vapours unless they are made to feel warm and cuddly inside this so-called "special relationship" They despise us for going on about it and they are right to do so.
Nope number of Trump threads on the front page of the News section (2 of 14 ;-) )
Always good to have the inside track on what American politicians think.

Expert knowledge and contacts are invaluable when it comes to internet forum posting, however overstated.
A statement from President Trump earlier today (it MUST have been early) denounced the website known as "AnswerBank" for its use of the term "Special Relationship"
"It's not how I woo 'em" he complained, before, again, oozing "I am a people person" :-)
Don't we have a "special relationship" with most of our ex-colonies ?

I mean to say, we seem to get on with the Ozzies, the Kiwis, the Canucks, and it is said that India will always be in the British heart.

But I see that we have yet another AB Correspondent calling everybody that opposes this awful man as "creepy lefties" ....

A leftie I most certainly am and proud to be so, but I object to being called creepy, most strongly.
I am not sure what you are actually asking AB members to do. So far as i know, none of us have the power to stop Trump doing anything and surely you aren’t asking us to stop discussing him?
Chris....I have travelled extensively all over the States in the last 40 years, and I have always found Americans to be extremely polite and hospitable.

So I am not sure where you get those offensive ideas from ?

Much less offensive than the words used against those on the right, by you lefties.
AOG....example please ?
Someone called him a knuckle dragger once, although I haven't seen that term used in yonks.
KD fell out of favour, now it's left/right to the extent that some days I spin on my chair and get vertigo.

I have nightmares about the hokey cokey too.
Mamy....not just me then that doesn't understand why people who dislkke Trump are called "lefties"
Their 'logic' goes something like 'if you have a different opinion to mine, you must be a leftie moron'.
I just don't care for labels they do nothing to assist in debate.
So what are you then - a slimey rightie ?

And who exactly is stopping him getting on with his job and why should folk stop expressing their opinions . You are certainly expressing yours .

He seems to be doing what he wants -

You left out Zimbabwe, Mikey.

“Their 'logic' goes something like 'if you have a different opinion to mine, you must be a leftie moron'.”

Yes, rather like the description applied by some Remainers to those supporting Brexit:

“Their 'logic' goes something like 'if you have a different opinion to mine, you must be a racist/xenophobe/Little Englander/swivel-eyed loon/ignorant old git/selfish moron (continued ad nauseum, delete (or more usually leave the lot in) as appropriate).

We can all call each other names and as Mamy says, it doesn't really enrich the debate.
