Didn't he say this about the ballroom that he demolished the East wing of the Whitehouse for?

Underground there are more rooms which will be used for security

The arch is going to allow deployment of drones and snipers and will be used to store a large amount of ammunition for snipers. I think the idea is that snipers don't use a lot of ammunition. Maybe he is building it to allow people to have a shot at him?

Fucking idiot thinks he's Napoleon
Needs the same treatment - capturing and shipping off to somewhere remote like St Helena.

One speculation in the papers a couple of days ago was that if he's impeached again he'll jump ship, fly to Scotland and claim UK nationality (his mother was Scottish) and then spend the rest of his life in comfort on his golf courses avoiding extradition

Surely that would give his core UK supporters (Reform / Tommy fan types) a quandary as they'll want him to be given a place of safety but on the other hand they don't want foreigners coming here and certainly not convicted criminals

  couple of the lads I work with are worried about the situation in Poland.

They can not understand the BBC and others obsession with stories of individuals of 15 plus years ago,( whilst awful and should of been dealt with at the time )

while their country has German police and army in open sight on the streets.

"Censorship is not stopping you seeing a girl topless on page three its stopping you from knowing what is happening."

A phrase banned about at the time of Mary Whitehouse by the porno industry at time in the 1970`s

You should make your mind up.
He is either a Russian stooge or he's a guy who went to war with Russia. Can't be both.
I think he'd be safer in Israel.
They like him there.
We fucking hate the cunt up here.
Not sure 'comfort' and 'golfing in Scotland' should be used in the same sentence though

Would he meet the 'good character' requirement? External Link/Members Only

We have an extradition treaty with the US, so I doubt that move would save him - maybe if he was to keep his head down and mouth shut there's a chance, but he seems incapable of that.

If he was stupid enough to seek asylum in Scotland, every round he played on his golf course would be met with an army of Scots holding up these signs.

He could try to claim asylum on the grounds the charges were political

But are they?  If he's breached the Constitution, which applies to every US Citizen, regardless of their political persuasion, he's just a Criminal.

That would confuse the fuck out of the Asylum seeker protest movement up here.
Most of them could be counted among the few admirers he has up here.

Maybe they could unredact the Epstein Files.
Plenty of material in there if it hasn't been misplaced accidentally on purpose

Isn't the Scottish version of the English language wonderful ?
The counter protesters would only need to add one four letter word to that sign to exoress their admiration of the man
