And got to do something no other President had ever done by making an ass out of himself and legitimizing the NK regime...all in a world stage and all for the glory of himself, no matter the cost!!

I'm sure we can all sleep better now that he's got this covered!! I mean he told us we could, why should we doubt him?

“Well, of course dialogue is better than name-calling…” because otherwise WE were warmongers. However, we all knew he was being played and had forced us into a position of support. Man, it stuck in my craw. Now I am almost thrilled—except for the impending thermonuclear winter part.

While they are at it, sit down with the MAGA followers and explain what it all means. They won’t ever hear it from Fox News but someone needs to tell ‘em in simple terms that their guy is a dumbass. And oh, yea, he lied to them, too. Like a cheapass rug.

He wouldn't do that to Trump, of course. Trump is far too useful. Pence might see through Kim. Trump couldn't see through a window so new, the glass hasn't been put in yet.

I heard Stalin was a swell guy too. He'd serve you a chilled vodka and a pat on the back before you left a meeting with him in the Kremlin, just before he had you garrotted on the way to getting your coat.

Everything, I mean EVERYTHING that cretin says, does or signs (like a seismograph zig-zagging over graph paper during an 8.0 quake) turns to complete shit.

And it’s not just his embarrassing public sucking-off of Putin’s tallywhacker, or jumping up and down on soggy sheets with Moscow piss-hookers. 45 is now killing people and tearing families apart. AND NEARLY ALL REPUBLICANS ARE SILENT. Let that sink in. An entire major U.S. political party wants to dance to Putin’s tune; let parentless children just rot away in cages; and to allow this unbelievably horrible, ANTI-AMERICAN tyrant to run loose all over the country, whipping up the white nationalists, neo-nazis and Confederate crackers into a murderous frenzy, while turning Americans even harder against themselves— we’re in full-hate territory now.

Every time that Orange Asshole grabs a live mic, and gets his rocks off by moaning and whining to compliant zombies, he makes the Rev. Jim Jones come off like Andy Griffith. It’d be a riotous joke if it didn’t mean that the entire country is going up in flames.

Does anyone anywhere doubt that something very bad on a large scale will occur in the near future under this Trump “presidency”? Even worse than all the present debacle? Because what’s already occurred is merely setting the table for what comes next.
