[Video of this quote](http://www.cnn.com/videos/politics/2017/05/21/trump-message-of-love-saudi-arabia-speech-sot.cnn/video/playlists/president-trumps-first-foreign-trip/) So, is he just a Burke grabbing at straws… or a strawman grabbing at Burkas? I haven’t seen reactions yet to this trade program of free guano for every Muslim man, woman, or child, but somehow I don’t see them being impressed. PS- Chrissie Hynde did it [WAY](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3xecXi8SX6o) better. 😃 ---

[Quote=Donald J. Trump] “Now the reason we’re here, as man and woman, is to love each other, take care of each other. When love walks in the room, everybody stand up! Oh it’s good, good, good, like Brigitte Bardot.” [/Quote] OK, he didn’t really say that. We can only wish. ---

The speech was long on rhetoric and short on specifics. But he delivered it pretty well for someone who can’t read. At least he didn’t invite our Muslim brethren to join in a Crusade against Islamic Terrorism. ---

At least he didn’t invite our Muslim brethren to join in a Crusade against Islamic Terrorism. He got the Saudis and the GCC to commit to spends nearly a quarter of a trillion United States Dollars in buying weapons and investments in the US. Probably partying on Air Force One right now. ---

Not relevant to Elections. Hardly a debate. Coin toss came down on MPSIMS instead of IMHO. ---

> [@Count\_Blucher](#): > > Trump- “I Come To Deliver A Message Of Love” Was he wearing a [stillsuit](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_technology_in_the_Dune_universe#Stillsuit) during his speech? _“Muad’dib had become the hand of God, fulfilling the Fremen prophecy. Where there was war, Muad’dib would now bring peace. Where there was hatred, Muad’dib would bring love. To lead the people to true freedom, and to change the face of Arrakis.”_
