🤦♂️That’s, hopefully, for the professional regulators to determine. Not for politicians trying to flatter a narcissist.

But you didn’t find out if you had anything in common. A person of your assumed intellect should be able to source a subject and discuss with him. You shouldn’t pity someone who has differing opinions, you should engage.Hopefully I am neither!
My family are all very independently minded. They come to their own conclusions. I don’t influence my friends but it’s natural that those who share attitudes tend to get on better than those who don’t. Racist Dave isn’t my mate!

I question why this story has broken now?
Yesterday possibly the most important Panorama investigation I have ever watched was aired. Headlined “Trump and the Tech Titans” it examined how Trump’s rise was bankrolled by the multi billionaires of Silicon Valley and the way they are remaking the US system in their own interest. It looked specifically at Peter Thiel, a PayPal founder, democracy sceptic and early endorser of Trump. He has been almost exclusively behind JD Vance’s rise and is said to control him. He is worth around $30 billion and believes that democracy is holding back technology and needs to be replaced by a billionaire class run autocracy. It is him, and others, who have convinced Trump to launch his own crypto in order to cash in. Theil now owns Palantir Technologies which produces data analysing software used by the military to identify and track individual targets. It’s being used by Ukraine, has probably been given to Israel and is being used by ICE to track those they believe are illegals.
These guys have no respect for the law, democracy or their constitution. I was unaware just how deeply embedded they, and their placemen, are inside the second Trump administration. This is corruption in plain sight which really ought to concern everyone.
So is the release of the BBC “story” about editing out Trump’s words deliberately timed to try to divert attention from this much, much more important one and yet another attempt by the right to discredit the BBC?
It certainly smells like it! You can watch last night’s Panorama here:- (Providing, of course, you have a licence!)

Panorama - Trump and the Tech Titans
Silicon Valley’s original disruptors didn’t just change technology - they rewired politics. Panorama investigates the 'PayPal Mafia' and their influence on Donald Trump’s rise to the White House.www.bbc.co.uk

And this is what you said after your comment to me… (if it’s what you want to hear you’ll accept it. If not, you won’t. How predictable zzzzz)

I’ll decide that after the “outcome” is concluded. Who makes it and why will play a big role.
If it’s by the government to try to pander to Trump’s vanity or get a concession on tariffs, then no I won’t.

He's beyond parody.

This is all a distraction. It’s irrelevant detail in the light of what’s actually happening, even whether true, or not.
It’s becoming increasingly obvious that Trump himself, and all his current stupidity, is a distraction. He isn’t well. His incoherence has become undeniable and there are credible sources suggesting he has dementia which is progressing so quickly he won’t soon be capable of maintaining any pretence of control.
For pretence it is. The real people driving the agenda are the likes of Stephen Miller and Peter Theil. They prepare the executive orders, Trump just signs them, issues the pardons, banks the bribes and then burbles about them when asked. At the appropriate moment he will resign, or be forced to, and Vance will take over. Vance being part of the team that’s engineering this.
The BBC know this. Which is why last night’s Panorama was made. Of course there will be denials, some from people here, but the evidence is all there, in full sight if you have the bottle to admit it.

Both totally untrue and potentially libellous assertions.I would expect nothing less from someone who rationalised wishing death of another human (Trump). And was okay with people celebrating Charlie kirks assassination.
For that reason I no longer see any of the posts.

Watch last night’s Panorama.Utter drivel
England
You don’t talk to racist Dave! He talks at you! I tried having rational discussions with him when I first encountered him but soon learned not to waste my time. He talks over people, so people just ignore him, all except the unwary.But you didn’t find out if you had anything in common. A person of your assumed intellect should be able to source a subject and discuss with him. You shouldn’t pity someone who has differing opinions, you should engage.
There are people I don’t have anything in common with who I talk to.
Especially when I want my dinner 😂😂😂

But Panorama are under investigation for falsifying Trump’s words at a rally- how can we trust that this programme hasn’t been doctored too?Watch last night’s Panorama.
You might change your mind because there are things going on that threaten all of us.
Even the most indoctrinated MAGA devotee is being shafted.
You dismiss it as drivel if you want to stay in your self righteous bubble.
England
Not in this way.So. f***ing. What.
Do you seriously think that there has EVER been a candidate NOT bankrolled by vested interests? FFS were you born yesterday? Even Bernie fookin Sanders was bankrolled
Jesus wept

Ofcom found against the BBC and they have admitted their culpability but it's still not enough. What does it take?Of course that was always going to be the official reaction. They won’t, nor could, argue with Ofcom. My comment is my own. Not that of the BBC.
England
Not in this way.
Some people back people they believe in. This is the mega rich putting their puppets in.
