    “Canada does not conduct its diplomacy through ad hominem attacks ... ", said our Foreign Minister Chrystia Freeland today, which will annoy Trump, because he won't know what an ad hominem attack is.

    He'll probably think it is something to do with homonym.

    If I became president, I would definitely memorize the lyrics to "God Bless America" (I'm pretty sure I know them anyway), even if I am a bit iffy about the sentiment itself.  But I hear Donny totally blew the words at a rally.

    Prep man, prep!
    “The fear of death follows from the fear of life. A man [or woman] who lives fully is prepared to die at any time.”
    Variously credited to Mark Twain or Edward Abbey.

    Within the last few pages of this thread there's a clip of McDonald pretending to sing it.

    It's freaking hilarious. What a goof.

    Lartey, who earned an annual salary of $65,969 as a records management analyst, was a career government official with close to 30 years under his belt. But he had never seen anything like this in any previous administration he had worked for. He had never had to tape the president’s papers back together again.

    Interesting. Sounds EXACTLY like what Trump’s supporters try to do in here as well:

    From the article:
    He said his entire department was dedicated to the task of taping paper back together in the opening months of the Trump administration.

    The brilliance is on display right now. This is what I have been talking about since he came down the escalator. Using “crazy” as an advantage. Enjoy the show.

    If Team Trump Treason’s cozying up to a brutal, nuclear armed dictator and giving him the prestige he seeks while simultaneously walking away from a hard fought years long negotiated nuclear deal is your idea of brilliance, you’ve sold your soul to the myth. Enjoy the shit show when nothing comes of it.

    Riiiiight...it was only a few months back that you were whining about “Fire and Fury”, “Little Rocket Man”, and “My button is bigger then your’s and it works”. I know I have been away for a while but I’m pretty amazed that you so quickly transitioned from dove to hawk. You were all cool with making empty deals with Cuba and Iran but on NK you are now the AMT John Bolton! He’s in the room by the way so don’t worry that there is nobody in Singapore to argue for your position...which is war I assume? Personally I like Trump’s path of engaging china, tightening sanctions, and military threats to coerce Kim Jung Un to the table followed by graciousness and potential for carrots but I suppose your war idea could work too. Also...your precious Iran deal had to be cancelled for the NK strategy to work. Iran gave up nothing and got a ton. It was a farce. North Korea needed to know that an Iran type deal is off the table.

    Geez, I don’t even have to read half way through your post before you’re beating the war drum. Have I ever advocated for war against North Korea? And that empty nuclear deal with Iran? You mean the one they were abiding by? And what exactly has changed in North Korea, Professor? Other than being showered with praise by a US president?

    I would like to hear @BS44325 take on the quickly escalating "trade war" Trump has provoked with his home nation.
    It’s a brilliant stroke of brilliant trade negotiating in all its brilliancy, why of course.
    The brilliance is on display right now. This is what I have been talking about since he came down the escalator. Using “crazy” as an advantage. Enjoy the show.
    If Team Trump Treason’s cozying up to a brutal, nuclear armed dictator and giving him the prestige he seeks while simultaneously walking away from a hard fought years long negotiated nuclear deal is your idea of brilliance, you’ve sold your soul to the myth. Enjoy the shit show when nothing comes of it.
    Riiiiight...it was only a few months back that you were whining about “Fire and Fury”, “Little Rocket Man”, and “My button is bigger then your’s and it works”. I know I have been away for a while but I’m pretty amazed that you so quickly transitioned from dove to hawk. You were all cool with making empty deals with Cuba and Iran but on NK you are now the AMT John Bolton! He’s in the room by the way so don’t worry that there is nobody in Singapore is there to argue for your position...which is war I assume? Personally I like Trump’s path of engaging china, tightening sanctions, and military threats to coerce Kim Jung Un to the table followed by graciousness and potential for carrots but I suppose your war idea could work too. Also...your precious Iran deal had to be cancelled for the NK strategy to work. Iran gave up nothing and got a ton. It was a farce. North Korea needed to know that an Iran type deal is off the table.
    Geez, I don’t even have to read half way through your post before you’re beating the war drum. Have I ever advocated for war against North Korea? And that empty nuclear deal with Iran? You mean the one they were abiding by? And what exactly has changed in North Korea, Professor? Other than being showered with praise by a US president?
    You are advocating for war because we are at the point of no return. North Korea missle technology is reaching the point of being able to hit the continental United States. Soon after that they will learn how to mount a nuclear warhead onto one of those missles. You know as well as I that no President can in good conscience allow this. Therefore you are left with two choices 1) Do what Trump is doing or 2) Pre-emptively strike North Korea now. The risk of option 2 is millions dead. The risk of option 1 is giving Kim legitimacy while he cheats on a deal which will then lead to a fall back on option 2. There is potential for option 1 to work...there are small signs such as hostage releases, chinese pressures, positive meetings with South Korea, internal North Korean leadership changes. All of these are baby steps for sure but they are in the right direction. You should pray it succeeds otherwise millions of dead will be the only option you will have left.
