I don't have an axe to grind with your current president. I don't like him, I don't respect him, and I don't rate him, but I don't have any axe to grind. I watch with a mixture of horror and amusement as he demonstrates his unfitness to lead, and watch, 'popcorn in hand', waiting to see whether he escapes being impeached.

On this, as so often, Trump is an irrelevance.
My last point, as I'd hate to detract the attention away from the fine men and women of the Tornado GR Force, past and present: He isn't my President - I fly the Union Flag.
