1. "damp squib" something one would expect from someone with "small hands".

2. Damp squib? How about fizzled?

Pschitt is the sound a soda makes when poured, and also a Perrier brand name. It is also a pun on the English shit.

4. That is funny...never heard of it...

"damp squib", a term for failure named after a dud 19th century explosive mining device, which is often mispronounced as "damp squid."

6. Hello Voltaire2

I hesitated but finally, I thought "damb squib" is a better translation.

3. If only America cared about

what the rest of the world thought.

But they really don't. Like trump, many are ignorant, arrogant, and incapable of self reflection. SAD!

8. Hello Flibbitygiblets

I read a few comments in French and Belgian newspapers...

Trump has his supporters here too... it is far beyond my understanding !

I'll post later a comment from someone pretending being American and my answer.

I'll try to translate a few other comments, you'll see how ignorant are Trumpig's European supporters...

9. Hello dear

I'm feeling better, really

I have nothing to do, just to rest.

Our health system is really great : it not only covers almost all fees but gives many advantages. One of them is a domestic help for the next 3 months. I could also had warm meals twice a day, but I declined : I prefer my cooking

The domestic help is not only for one or two hours per day : it is a full time.

Of course, we have problems too, but to the least, everyone is taken in charge for what concern education and health.

Delusional !

I really despise Sean Hannity ! A pseudo "journalist" whose name sounds to me like "insanity".
