Trump may be many things, but an imbecile he is not.

A point you may have lost in the subtle irony there bas.

What does that say about folks eager to label those as ibeciles whose IQ is dozens of points above their own? :laugh::laugh:
 
How many of you high IQ people are president of the USA?
Or even your own boss?

Trump isn't a politician. So of course he doesn't know a lot about the political sphere. Thats the whole reason Hillary is crying on the abc. And keeps company with other losers like Gillard. Trump was an outsider.
 
A lot of republican presidential candidates did as well. And then he beat them.
He may very well be the dumbest man on the planet. But he beat all the other contenders. So what does that really say about them.
He understood the voters mood. Hired the best and brightest. Didn't underestimate Dillary Clinton. And here we are.

The shock on the Democrats faces will last a lifetime. As will there tears it seems.
 
And John Bolton asking Kim to follow "the Libyan Model". Nothing subtle there at all. Just give everything up and trust us......

The North Koreans despise John Bolton. He has serious history in torpedoing any efforts at rapproachment between NK and the rest of the world.

Trump faces North Korea dilemma after John Bolton infuriates Pyongyang

Trump is keen to keep his appointment in Singapore but the row involving his national security adviser presents a serious hurdle.

.... Bolton has a track record with the North Koreans, who blame him for persuading the George W Bush administration to quit a 1994 nuclear deal, the Agreed Framework. In his memoir, Surrender is Not an Option, Bolton boasts about his success in torpedoing state department efforts to keep talks with Pyongyang alive, deriding the diplomats as appeasers.

At the time, the regime denounced him as “human scum” and a “bloodsucker”, banning him from any bilateral talks. On Wednesday, the first deputy prime minister, Kim Kye-gwan, made it clear that the regime’s antipathy had not mellowed with time, noting “we do not hide our feeling of repugnance towards him”.

There go that Nobel Peace Prize.

Trump has only just hired the guy from FOX. Hard to sack him this quickly. He wants to get that noble prize.

Personally if he pulls this off I think he should get it , shared with Xi Jinping and it should be awarded at the same time. It could be argued Xi did just as much (if not more) through influence.
Would make me smile to see them sharing the glory together on the same stage.
 
The sanctions are doing damage more than anything. That and the shift in technology.

Trumps more of an open platform to get deals done. Ideally the US wants to get NK to open up more.
Kim is losing the fight with the public and their interest in freedom is growing.

Can't block the outside world any longer, not with all the technology available. That and no money.

(The reason it would make me smile is that it would kill Trump to share the glory).

In that case, we better hurry and lobby the Nobel committee to award them a shared one :D

Trump just said "the Libya model" would be implemented on North Korea if it didn't make a deal with him.

Dam it, he really wanted that peace prize. That and "victory for the world".

Here's a great interview covering some history on US involvement in the Korean Peninsular and its sanctions on NK.

Apparently two junior ranking officer from the US was tasked by Truman, sent to a room, and with a National Geographic map of Korea they split it into two: One good, one evil.

About the 1.20 mark.

Trump: The Libya Model.... now that model (is where we went in and kick the crap out of Qaddafi) is not the model we have in mind at all. It will be the model if Kim refuse to negotiate and drop his nukes. As in, drop developing it, not drop it :D


Damn it Lil' Kim, Trump really wanted peace. And if you refuse, he's going to Libya your azz.

You can't make these up. :laugh:


 
Bill Maher at his best. Depressing if true....



Bill Maher is always on the money. He is quite right; Donald Trump is above the law. Everything he is doing is stating that he will never accept any legal confrontation of anything he has done. Not accepting the FBI investigation, continuing to call all complainants about sexual harrassment "liars", declaring any suggestion of malpractice "false news" and threatening to sue the pants off anyone who dares make such a statement. What else would you call this behaviour ?

And the Republician party are so morally bankrupt they will let him get away with this behaviour indefinately.
