The Trump Administration: A Clusterfuck in the Making

Mike Pompeo: “I think Chairman Kim [Jong Un] shares the objectives of the American people, I am convinced of that”

If the objective of the American people is to get rid of Donald Trump, then I agree.

I thought, for sure, that is going to be a made up URL…

Well, yeah.

But seriously, it’s a weird thing for a US Secretary of State to say–a brutal dictator shares the objectives of the American people?

I sometimes suspect that many of these bully-boys (Pompeo, John Kelly, John Bolton, etc.) genuinely believe that authoritarian rule is the finest possible form of government.

Imagine the reaction from Fox News if Obama or anyone in his administration had spoken about Kim the way Trump and his people do.

Hell, as was pointed out during the election, imagine the reaction if Obama had had several children with multiple wives. Talk about white privilege!

Especially if Obama did it while wearing a tan suit!

In a very limited way – they both agree that millions of Koreans dying would be a Bad Thing.

CFSG moves boldly to protect vulnerable jobs in China.

I was coming to post this, but I had to reseach it because I was half-convinced I was being whoosed on Facebook…

No it is real. Our Leader actually did text:

Ahem.

One, it was his Department of Commerce, per the articles I read, that put the ban in place in April, so it was a Trump policy he’s reversing. And from the Reuters article,(In concession, Trump will help China's ZTE 'get back into business' | Reuters), I quote:

Bolding and Underline are mine. Aren’t we supposed to be mad at Iran and be all about denying them stuff?

I await the inevitable explanation that isn’t an explanation from his supporters.

Make China Great Again!

Wasn’t sure whether to put this in the SRID thread (because the idea is still being “proposed”) or here: John Sno-Cone-'Stache Bolton floats out his butt-hurt reaction to Europe not siding with the US’s tail-between-the-legging of the Iran Nuclear Deal by maybe imposing sanctions on those bad bad European countries who’ll still do business with Iran.

Alt-right Barbie of Fox News tried to back up John Kelly’s immigrant comments.

A genealogist looked into both Kelly and Lahren’s background

These losers are such fucking hypocrites.

BTW, that’s EXACTLY what this country is based on. :dubious:

Trump’s next executive order: replace “Give me your tired, your poor…” with “Go back to your shithole countries so we have room for the Normegians.”

Should be easy enough - he’s wanted to bullldoze the Statue of Liberty for years to build a golf resort.

Norm!

Well apparently we’re not getting fast tracked for green cards, or I’d have heard back by now.

The White House released a transcript of Jared Kushner’s comments at the opening of the new Embassy in Jerusalem, editing out his comments that said, "As we have seen from the protests of the last month and even today, those provoking violence are part of the problem and not part of the solution.”
