Did you ever think...

Calm down, everyone, Saudi Arabia just murdered a journalist, it’s not like they did anything really evil like kneeling during a song. - OhNoSheTwint












Did you ever think you’d see the day that an American President would attack the architect of the Bin Laden raid but go out of his way to defend the foreign nationals that beheaded a US resident?
No. You didn’t. -

It was in 2016 that the thoughts began rambling through this liberal brain...he's Looney Tunes with a Looney Tunes Base. That's what went through my head. It hasn't been wrong yet...and the chances are...never. Replace him, Impeach him, force him to resign...whatever...but get rid of this American Cancer...it's eating us alive.

And the Saudi government denies involvement and we just accept that despite evidence to the contrary.

Not to mention they threaten us financially if we pass any legislation in response.

Trump is going to cover for SA and SA is going to increase oil production to keep oil prices down. This is how Trump operates, like a mob boss, one hand washes the other.

Neither will they.

Lady Macbeth tells Macbeth to wash the "filthy witness" from his hands, where the "filthy witness" is the blood still on Macbeth's hands after he kills King Duncan at their castle. Macbeth hears knocking over and over again, which the audience is supposed to take as his conscience starting a slow mental decline.

I also never thought I would see the day a president dissed veterans, ignored the rule of law, bragged about himself day in and day out, lied to the people on a daily basis, acted like a 5 year old, and I could go on and on and on. It's like living in the Twilight Zone!
