Edit: just looked it up. Apparently he denied that.
Even UKIP see him as a liability now and don't want him.
He's great for the satire industry though, they love him.
He should go, now we have Piers Morgan back you are short of an English dickhead over there.
For legal reasons, we are not threatening to destroy U.S. government property with our glorious medieval siege engine. But if we wanted to, we could. But we won’t. But we could.

Just politicized courtrooms.
I honestly don't get how US judges are not supposed to be politicized. Aren't they elected?
Fame is not flattery. Respect is not agreement.

Yeah, the elected judges thing is uber-retarded.

For state judges election rules depend on the state (we still have them). https://ballotpedia.org/Judicial_select ... the_states

Federal judges are appointed for life.

It's all politics, all the time, anyway. We'll have Trump's appointment to SCOTUS in about an hour. Judge for yourself how politicized the process and the nominee are.

President-elect Donald Trump is believed to be planning on shutting down arts and heritage programs as part of a raft of budget-tightening measures.

The Hill, whose source is an unnamed member of Trump’s transition team, reported that Trump will eliminate both the National Endowment For The Arts and the National Endowment For The Humanities, and privatise the Corporation For Public Broadcasting.

The latter partially funds National Public Radio (NPR) and Public Broadcasting Service (PBS), currently receiving $445.5 million a year from the government, around half of which goes to the US’ approx. 350 public television stations.

Don't listen to unnamed sources. This could easily be fake news aimed at stirring up liberals.

The pastor of a largely immigrant Catholic church in Queens has a suggestion for his anti-Trump parishioners: Go take a flying leap off the nearest building.

“Show your hate for Trump. Do it for social justice. #JumpAgainstTrump,” read a meme posted by the Rev. Philip Pizzo just hours after he celebrated Sunday Mass.

The message included an illustration of a man plummeting from a skyscraper.

The conservative priest, who oversees St. Benedict Joseph Labre Roman Catholic Church in Richmond Hill, previously posted a photo of President Obama with the words “He’s not my president’’ and another snapshot of Hillary Clinton titled “Ugly Face’’ in Italian along with “Happy Halloween.’’
