  • Hard News: Trump's Dummkopfs,

    Mr Snuffleupagus ?
    Trump's performance wasn't to be sniffed at - or was it?

    He does sound a bit like some lip-smacking reptile...
    or is he a bloodhound dog...

  • Hard News: Trump's Dummkopfs,

    trumped up...
    I see lots of comments about Trump saying 'he is beyond the pale' - and he is most definitely outside the palisade and beyond the grounds of common decency now.

    Seems to me he is also now the pale rider on his own pale horse (he has the pale mane!) - which sadly only plays to his Revelations-obsessed base...

    Beware the seven Trump pets - we have recently seen the divisive Power of Aaron's Rod on NZ society!

  • Hard News: Trump's Dummkopfs,

    I guess Paddy Gower's 'bromance' with the Trump boys is over...

    Trump was interviewed by TV3 (now Newshub) while visiting New Zealand in 1993 as part of a consortium bidding for a casino operator's licence. In the interview, Trump was asked about his image as a womanising tycoon.
    Trump said: "I think women are beautiful – I think certain women are more beautiful than others, to be perfectly honest – and it's fortunate I don't have to run for political office. "
    ​Newshub Political Editor Patrick Gower said he found the interview in TV3's archives.

    ...another expert on 'playful banter' weighs in as well:

    Key would not be drawn on whether Trump's comments were "locker room banter", but said "that language is indefensible".

    Okay, so he's only a 'banterm weight' and his high horse is only pony-sized...

    Attachment Attachment

    for the love of mike…

    At the end of the footage, the other guy asks for it back…

    ‘The other guy’ being Billy Bush, cousin of George W. Bush, maybe its a Republican thing…
    Bush sure seemed to be enabling and encouraging Trump, down to getting the actress to give them both a hug after they had just finished objectifying her and then getting her to ‘choose’ between him and Trump – real nudge, nudge, wink, wink boys stuff – shame they are ‘adults’!!
    There seemed to be about 5 guys on that bus, whether they were all privy to the ‘locker room’ conversation, it sounded like Trump trying to ‘impress’ men…
    a real charmer!

    It’s obvious that the religious right in America are happy to betray one of these things to retain their grasp on the other.

    They desperately need an AntiChrist figure to trigger their 'final days scenarios' - if it's petrol you want for fuelling a conflagration, Trump will do just fine...

  • Up Front: Wonder Bi, in reply to Rich Lock,

    I suspect it’s because Nazis have been done to death (as it were) in recent superhero blockbusters, Capt America being the most obvious example.

    Just seems wrong to me both characters had their genesis in 1941 (Captain America March '41, Wonder Woman December '41) and WWII is a big part of their origins and the 'invisible plane' was there from early on - but won't be showing up in this movie reboot - the technology level of WWI precludes it.

  • Up Front: Wonder Bi, in reply to andin,

    have a look at Trumbo and how he got around them

    Puts me in mind of Ed Brubaker's excellent comic The Fade Out (3 issue arc) and the Coen Brothers movie Hail Caesar
    But that's a gawd awful accent O'Gorman is putting on...

  • Up Front: Wonder Bi,

    Sexual preferences aside, what I really don't understand with this movie 'reboot' is why they have set it in World War One?
    The comic was originally created during, and set in, WW II.
    I guess canvas covered planes are cheaper to recreate...
