In this case, that’s not the reason. It’s because no one on either side really wants him anywhere near an international crisis.

By existing, that’s how.

Earlier this afternoon, I was in my car listening to NPR, and the squawk they use when announcing weather warnings or tests went off, and I briefly freaked out. :o

No sane person would want him to have any involvement at all. Now if they could take that fucking Twitter away from him…

Even someone as shortsighted and fucking senseless as Donald Trump knows that the American public tends to pull together and support the president in times of war. So we got that goin for us.  
☹  
Thanks Republicans, for electing the most incompetent President ever. Fucking deplorable idiots.

And he’s taking action on this issue. Under Trump’s leadership, the chances of horrendous leadership unknowingly leading us into World War III grow larger each day.

In a disturbingly related story, it’s now being reported that Trump’s “fire and fury” threat wasn’t part of the speech’s written text. Trump apparently decided to add it in while he was making the speech.

Maybe it’s old-fashioned of me, but I think a President should plan out a nuclear war strategy and not just wing it.

Maybe it’s time for Congress to yank his ass out of the White House

By ANY means necessary.

Oh, and fuck the Deplorables. Every last one of them.

Didn’t the NKors threaten us with Fire and Fury before? I think Trump did a little plaging.

I realize that in the big scheme of things it’s not even “first world problems”, but I’ve received a hook for a job that would involve traveling to the US and this time “I don’t know if they’ll let me back into the country” isn’t a tired old joke, it’s an actual fear. And it’s thanks to the Cheeto and his love of barking. He’d love that tiny handbag dog whose noise is larger than a St. Bernard, so long as the itty bitty misbehaved canine scrap was yapping at someone else.

Can we take your Deplorables and the ones in my neighborhood and take them on a tour of Atlantis or something?

With a list of more than 20 “aliases” (most of them rapes of my name) and a complicated name whose spelling in my passport has changed since the last time. Oh, and a cousin who once wasn’t allowed into the US for being Hispanic, female and single.

Do you ever wish you’d just picked a short name and stuck with it? **Nava Garcia** or \*\*Maria Nava \*\*has a nice ring…

(says the guy who has only twice had a clerk spell his last name correctly… I even tried to change to my wife’s when we got married, but she was sick of hers and apparently wanted the Drama of Descriptive Dyslexia…)

Being expelled by Russia doesn’t mean they’re no longer on the payroll. Putin can’t fire US State Dept. Employees. They don’t work for him. At least not yet.
