Trump in full flow

The White House has already put out a flyer about Trump's State of the Union address in Congress later today. It sounds like all the same stuff he imparted to Piers Morgan on ITV at the weekend, all about how wonderful everything is. Now I don't blame the president at all for wanting to get across a positive message, in fact he would be an idiot to make a speech about how all the things that have gone wrong in the White House since he took over 12 months and ten days ago. So tonight it will be all about the booming economy, his plan to build up the military and his strategy on immigration. Oh, and how he's going to spend $1 trillion - why is it always $1 trillion dollars? Perhaps because it's such a great throwaway line - on America's deteriorating infrastructure. If anyone watched Piers Morgan's softly softly interview with his old Apprentice mate, Donald, at the weekend, they will know that Trump thinks everything is going swimmingly well. When asked for his views on the UK, he just replied that he loved Britain, loved Scotland even more, loved his Turnberry golf course, and was sure everyone in Britain loved him. But what about Jeremy Corbyn who has vowed to lead protests against him if he visits Britain, Morgan asked? "I don't know him," Trump replied. Actually, that's a terrific response. Who knows or wants to know Jeremy Corbyn? But Morgan left it at that. Trump and Morgan spent the 45 minutes chatting to each other with their knees almost touching. They must have chosen the smallest room in the building to hold the interview because it was definitely kneesie kneesie. Trump came up with his now familiar refrain, that he is the least racist person on God's earth and loves women. But was he a feminist, Morgan daringly asked? "No," replied Trump. So on the basis of the illuminating responses to "Piers", as Trump called him throughout, I think Congress is due to get a long list of wonderful, beautiful achievements completed in the first 12 months and the wonderful, beautiful projects and policies he has up his sleeve for the next 12 months. Oh I nearly forgot, one of the unbelievable revelations we got from the Piers Morgan exclusive interview was that Trump's first tweet of the day is generally written while he is still under the duvet in his pyjamas! Wow, hold the front page!! (ed. I thought we knew that!!)
