    Another day another article and another nothing burger that will lead to nowhere but an empty stomach.

    From the article.......
    That Trump was not joined in the conversation by his own translator is a breach of national security protocol, Bremmer noted, though one that the president likely would not know about. 

    I'm so tired of, "It's not a big deal, the president simply has no fucking clue what he's doing" being considered a reasonable defense. I don't care if it's "technically" legal. Shit like this shows, at best, a person too inexperienced to lead. There is no way you should be meeting with ANY foreign leader without another member of the staff present, much less the guy everyone knows you want to French kiss.
    maybe trump wasn't paying attention during orientation. probably tweeting during international security protocol.

    Remember all the shit Obama took because of his "inexperience" and his inability to lead? The difference is that Obama possesses the intelligence, intellect and integrity to be on the world stage and navigate the potential pitfalls. Trump stumbles into embarrassing situation after situation like a lurching six year old at a dinner party and thinks he's accomplished something great. A most beautiful piece of chocolate cake, anyone? Jared dear boy, oh Jared, fetch me a plate.

    You are correct sir. I had to get up and wash my Cheeto stained fingers and I missed the latest tweet.
    Latest tweet from President Trump folks...(In bold is the tweet from President Trump)
    Fake News story of secret dinner with Putin is "sick." All G 20 leaders, and spouses, were invited by the Chancellor of Germany. Press knew! The Fake News is becoming more and more dishonest! Even a dinner arranged for top 20 leaders in Germany is made to look sinister!


    thank you, keep'em coming. a direct line from our pres
    All those conspiracy theories about you two being the same person are magnified by this back and forth above. Seriously, were you sitting next to each other?
    It's a hopeless situation...

    Newsom appears to definitely be a future presidential candidate, or at least a Democratic primary candidate... I was even thinking that when he was mayor of San Francisco going on Real Time with Bill Maher... but I'm not sure if 2020 is realistic... he is currently Lt Governor and running for Governor in 2018, which he may very likely win... so I can't see him beginning his presidential bid at pretty much the same time taking over the Governorship of California... and to be completely honest I'm not sure how well a "San Francisco Liberal" is going to play nationally.... so I see it happening eventually, but not yet

    Did he really say that?  Paul Ryan is spineless.  The way he handled himself last campaign season made Ted Cruz look like a warrior.

    Cooking pizza... is that a euphemism for running a child sex ring now?  Kids these days....

    Huntsman is a good choice.  He's not a Trump loyalist by any stretch.  We couldn't rationally expect someone better than him.

    Another day another article and another nothing burger that will lead to nowhere but an empty stomach.

    From the article.......
    That Trump was not joined in the conversation by his own translator is a breach of national security protocol, Bremmer noted, though one that the president likely would not know about. 

    I'm so tired of, "It's not a big deal, the president simply has no fucking clue what he's doing" being considered a reasonable defense. I don't care if it's "technically" legal. Shit like this shows, at best, a person too inexperienced to lead. There is no way you should be meeting with ANY foreign leader without another member of the staff present, much less the guy everyone knows you want to French kiss.
    Remember all the shit Obama took because of his "inexperience" and his inability to lead? The difference is that Obama possesses the intelligence, intellect and integrity to be on the world stage and navigate the potential pitfalls. Trump stumbles into embarrassing situation after situation like a lurching six year old at a dinner party and thinks he's accomplished something great. A most beautiful piece of chocolate cake, anyone? Jared dear boy, oh Jared, fetch me a plate.
    I think it's hilarious to see people like Gorka show up on news shows and act like he's the greatest President to ever achieve office.  The whole thing is surreal.

    Would you put Huntsman in the pro-Russia or anti-Russia category? Same question with respect to Ukraine?

    not newsworthy?

    https://www.google.com/amp/s/amp.cnn.com/cnn/2017/07/18/politics/donald-trump-jon-huntsman-russia/index.html

    Jon Huntsman, chairman of Atlantic Council
    If he cooked at Comet Pizza, that would be newsworthy. 
     

    Cooking pizza... is that a euphemism for running a child sex ring now?  Kids these days....

    Huntsman is a good choice.  He's not a Trump loyalist by any stretch.  We couldn't rationally expect someone better than him.  
    I actually liked him when he ran for president 5 years ago.  its funny cause trump used to insult him when he was the ambassador to China

    Would you put Huntsman in the pro-Russia or anti-Russia category? Same question with respect to Ukraine?
    Considering some of his criticisms of the Chinese gov't when he was there, I would put him in the pro-human rights category.  Generally speaking, I think that makes him anti-Kremlin.  But we'll see.

    I found something I agree on with Steve Bannon

    "Paul Ryan is a limp dick motherfucker who was born in a petri dish at The Heritage Foundation"
    Did he really say that?  Paul Ryan is spineless.  The way he handled himself last campaign season made Ted Cruz look like a warrior.
    That is what is being reported in the new book about Bannon. 

    I agree with him, finally lol

    You are correct sir. I had to get up and wash my Cheeto stained fingers and I missed the latest tweet.
    Latest tweet from President Trump folks...(In bold is the tweet from President Trump)
    Fake News story of secret dinner with Putin is "sick." All G 20 leaders, and spouses, were invited by the Chancellor of Germany. Press knew! The Fake News is becoming more and more dishonest! Even a dinner arranged for top 20 leaders in Germany is made to look sinister!


    This is one of the more crazy tweets he's posted. Wtf? It doesn't even make any sense. I think the guy is really losing his marbles.
    With all its sham, drudgery, and broken dreams, it is still a beautiful world. Be careful. Strive to be happy. ~ Desiderata
