The US TRAVEL BAN and UK Subjects - Trump Era

Guardian - Live Reporting: Reports in its 5.37pm post the following, " UK Foreign Secretary Boris Johnson has insisted that the UK government has hammered out a new deal with Donald Trump’s administration under which anyone carrying a British passport will not be banned from entering the US...secured a more detailed agreement that dual nationals would not be stopped, even if they were travelling from one of the seven countries covered by the US ban. "

Lets Get Real:

As long as the rights of UK Subjects are respected this blog in the round does not have a problem with the US travel ban, before you start to throw a brick at the screen, this blog has made it CLEAR that the ban is racist and will not work in the War on Terror, that it targets Countries that you want a better relationship with, to get better intel from as to prevent terrorists getting into the US and the West.   At the end of the day it is up to the US, if the Courts do not over turn it then its legal, directed by an elected President.   This will seem harsh, we live in harsh World, this blog tells you what it is really going on, not what it wants or thinks, it supported HRC for a year, that did not end well, it allowed what it wanted to get in the way of its gut, that gut made the blogger place a bet on a Trump victory!   This blog has always been about the truth, and in truth as long as UK interests and people are respected this blog could care less about the ban.   It does not mean to be cruel, it just the way the World is at the moment.   The Democrats need a better candidate in 2020.

POTUS vs. Democrats and his new immigration rules - Trump Era

Daily Mail: Reports " 'Who's his acting coach?' Trump mocks Schumer's 'fake tears' and blames Delta Airlines outage for airport slowdowns as he says there's 'nothing nice about searching for terrorists' "

Lets Get Real:

Thus POTUS is showing that he is appealing to his BASE, these are the fly over States or the Rust Belt States, the ones that he win in November.   The Democrats appeal to the East and West Coast, that is why the LOST last year.   The Democrats were VERY quiet when President Obama signed his orders that closed down mining in the Rust belt States, he did not care that he was closing down an industry and people would suffer, he was doing what the base; extreme left green of his Party; wanted, well there is a different POTUS in the White House now, this shows why it is important to win elections.   The anger from the extreme left wing liberals, Guardian/New York Time readers is getting boring and fast, who cares what a bunch of flaky actors, their main concern is having a decent agent.   Thus to the arts crew get back to doing what you're good at, drama, comedy, singing, etc, leave the politics to the grown ups who see the real world after 9/11.  Also it is not racist to have a different view from the group, a group think is vastly over rated.

When it's NONE of our Business - Trump and immigration - Trump Era

BBC News: Reports " More than 1.3 million people have signed a petition urging the government to call off President Donald Trump's state visit to the UK, amid a row over his recent immigration measures. "

Lets Get Real:

This blog has made it clear that its Trump actions are racist and unhelpful in the War on Terror.   That it makes more enemies than friends, etc.   On the other hand its up to the US President and the Courts to do decide who comes into the US, it does not matter if a BILLION sign a the petition, it is none of our business, as long as UK Subjects are not affected then the UK Government should stay say nothing on the subject.   If the Presidential order is illegal it will be found so in the US Courts, otherwise it does not matter what someone outside the US thinks, we do not get a vote in their Presidential election and the reverse it true, so REST OF THE WORLD, chill, the system will work out, yes it is a racist order and bad but its the decision of the US President, and that happens to be Donald Trump, no longer the weak President Obama.

The US and the UK Special Relationship - Trump Era

Daily Mail: Reports " The special relationship is back on! President Trump declares 'great days lie ahead' for America and Britain, praises Brexit... and reveals he will be meeting the Queen later this year  "

Lets Get Real:

The cool relationship between the US and the UK is now over, the Obama Administration looked to Germany to provide leadership, while the new Trump Administration look to an old ally.  The German policy of allowing in a million refugees is counter to the Trump Policy of restrictions on muslim nations who have a terror history.  One can argue that Germany has paid a heavy price for its charity.   The extreme right has grown in Germany, that is something no wants to see again.  After Brexit is declared the UK can start to have talks under the table with other Countries, the first on the list will be the US.   The elite left in the UK will try to block Brexit, let us hope we are not let down by our leadership. 

The Guardian Review of Press Conference between Trump and May - Trump Era

Guardian - Live Reporting: Reports in its 6.51pm post the following, " So, Donald Trump can act presidential. After a week that has seen multiple instances of Trump outraging Washington norms, he managed to get through a press conference lasting about 20-odd minutes sounding measured and reasonably diplomatic. He stressed that he was willing to defer to his defence secretary, James Mattis, on the subject of torture (Mattis doesn’t think it works, even though Trump does), he insisted that he wanted good relations with Mexico and he played down the prospect of an early lifting of Russian sanctions. "

Lets Get Real:

For the Guardian this is praise for President Trump, let's be honest the elite media hate Trump, they are the official opposition for Trump, the BBC question was what you would expect from the BBC/Guardian type, a long question with negatives towards Trump and managed to bring up abortion in the US, in what way was that a concern for the UK watcher. Overall the President showed he was moderate and could be diplomatic, another good day for Trump.   On the British side the President was a firm supporter of Brexit, and thus we should get a good deal out of the Oval Office. 

Trump and NATO - Trump Era

BBC News: Reports " US President Donald Trump and British Prime Minister Theresa May have reaffirmed their commitment to the Nato alliance after White House talks. "

Lets Get Real:

The Baltic States and Eastern European States will be happy that President Trump reaffirmed support for NATO, the problem is that President Trump has been known to change his mind, and should Russian under Putin place pressure on the Baltic States and Eastern Europe will Trump as the leader of the Western World come to their defence.   As the President stated in his first speech, it's America First, he does not want to do nation building or enter Wars like Iraq.   The Russians will be watching and waiting to put Trump to the test, or it will be Daesh, either attacks in Middle East or Europe/America, every Administration is tested, lets see how Trump reacts. 

President Trump holds a Press Conference with PM May of the UK - Trump Era

Lets Get Real:

This was a good press conference for PM May and President Trump, the President was supportive of Brexit and of the Special Relationship between the US and the UK.  There seems a good personal relationship between the two leaders.  Let us see how it develops.
