Saw this clip from Blazing Saddles and my mind wandered to our current supreme exponent of Frontier Gibberish
 
In my three and a half decades as a U.S. Foreign Service officer, proudly serving five presidents and ten secretaries of state from both parties, I’ve never seen an attack on diplomacy as damaging, to both the State Department as an institution and our international influence, as the one now underway.

Summary: There may never have been an attack on diplomacy as damaging, to both the State Department as an institution and U.S. international influence, as the one underway today.

Well I'm quite familiar with hydro-electricity and I used to live about 3km from the world's third largest zinc smelter so will that make me immune? :rolleyes::p:D:roflmao:

Here's a scale model of a zinc ingot (and yep that's my hand). Should I be eating it?

You have no xxxxing idea do you Dutchie ? You just have a kneejerk "Hands up" response to any attack on your beloved leader.

Just seeing the first minute of Trump adorning himself as the greatest expert on any process or situation made the point. The rest of the analysis just examined it in detail.

So sad really. I'm sure there are millions of other totally uncritical unthinking Trumpites who will never hear a bad word about their beloved.

Insane..

CNN pushed the Russian b.s. and every other fairytale fantasy. So did you. Despite it looking suss from day one.
Probably not a good idea to quote from them. Cuomo is a well known hack.

I often wonder what possess you to keep posting about Trump every thread?

As far as I'm concerned he is good as gone and "meh" if he is. Had some laughs and he is a great trigger point for leftists losing their minds.

Lets start with the "alternative facts".
Russia did intervene to support Trump in the last election. That's it. Evidence is all laid out. The fairy tale BS comes from the Liar in Chief denying it to all an sundry and those who chose to believe such mendacious lies.

Cuomo didn't need to do anything more than show the repeated clips of Donald Trump sprouting his ever increasing genius to highlight what an stupid, dangerous egomaniac he is. Trying to trash Cuomo as a "hack" is just another rubbish way of refusing to recognise who the world is dealing with.

Finally if Trump was no longer in the White House and facing multiple investigation for abuse of office, sexual assault, fraud and whatever else perhaps he would be "gone"

But he isn't is he ? He is still determinedly lying and abusing his way through a COVID 19 crisis , trying to undermine the next election and creating incendiary lies about journalists to attack the Press and divert attention.

So why do some people think we shouldn't be aware and absolutely determined to stop this slide to a lying, authoritarian family regime.?

Beats me really .

Russian collusion was b.s.
And why did none of your other b.s. stories stick?
Obama looks to have used the fbi to investigate an opponent. Didn't the dems complain about something similar not that long ago?

Personally I think you reference a lot of lies. Media has been complicit in a lot that was being pushed as well. WHO can forget the whole "school kids threatened an Indian" only to find it was all a lie. It's been constant. Which is why you are as credible as trump. No fact checking, just cheap points in an imaginary war.

The funny thing I find with the whole situation is that Obama is the reason trump ran.
He roasted him in the audience one night at some function. It all came about because Obama was being a dick. And then trump ran and democrats/leftist have collectively whinged ever since.

Obama has been pissing himself over his legacy being squashed ever since. And it's still coming out.
 
The thing that interests me is that if Hilary was such a crook as Trump claimed, then why didn't he sic the FBI on her and why isn't she in gaol ?

This guy is an inveterate liar who will say anything to get elected with nothing to back it up. His attacks on Biden's son have ceased because he knows there was nothing going on.

Personality wise, he's a complete creep. Policy wise, apart from a few taunts and jabs at China, what else has he got ?

That description covers a lot of them, all over the world.:xyxthumbs
Obviously if you want a really nice person to lead, that puts everyone before themselves, we should get a film star or a priest.:eek:

Dragging down to the lowest common denominator is not relevant. There are a lot of better people in the US than Trump, it's a pity that you have to start with millions to get a run there.

It certainly is a different creature to Australia, I can't follow any of it, way too many vested interests on all sides.
 
The US could work on an ignominy antithesis to Mt Rushmore... no trouble in crowd funding that effort.
It would be small and forgettable as a feature ; But would live large as an historical emblem.

T D S , you have a bad case of it.
 
So is actually a hands on President in the US ? What is he actually doing ?
Perhaps very little.

Fire, pestilence and a country at war with itself: the Trump presidency is over
Robert Reich
A pandemic unabated, an economy in meltdown, cities in chaos over police killings. All our supposed leader does is tweet

You’d be forgiven if you hadn’t noticed. His verbal bombshells are louder than ever, but Donald J Trump is no longer president of the United States.

By having no constructive response to any of the monumental crises now convulsing America, Trump has abdicated his office.

He is not governing. He’s golfing, watching cable TV and tweeting.
