Michelle Wolf: ‘Trump Doesn’t Want to Be Allies With Anyone Who’s Good-Looking’
The Wrap ^ | June 17, 2018 | Phil Hornshaw

Michelle Wolf thinks Donald Trump might be picking allies for the United States based on whether their leaders overshadow him with their attractiveness.

On her Netflix show “The Break With Michelle Wolf,” the comedian joked that Trump’s recent foreign policy moves are pretty confusing. Trump insulted Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau on Twitter after a chilly G7 summit, in which longtime U.S. allies were frustrated with Trump over actions like trade tariffs and frequent demands to allow Russia back into the group.

Right after that, Trump met with North Korean dictator Kim Jong Un in Singapore, where he said Kim agreed to denuclearization. The summit didn’t actually set any firm rules for that process, however, and skipped any discussion of Kim’s human rights abuses against the people of his country.

“Good news, guys, everything is fixed with North Korea!” Wolf said during her opening monologue on “The Break.” “Yeah, there was a summit, and a handshake, and now no one is being tortured, California is safe, and everyone in North Korea is full of food. Who knows what’s going to happen. I think best-case scenario, North Korea denuclearizes, and everyone’s a little safer. Worst-case scenario, North Korea is our ally now? Maybe our only ally?

“I think what it comes down to is Trump doesn’t want to be allies with anyone who’s good looking,” Wolf joked. “I mean, think about it. Recently, Trump upset Trudeau — hot; Macron — cute; Merkel — handsome. And look who he made happy: Kim, the guy who looks like the Pillsbury Doughboy wearing pajamas.”

Wolf went on to talk about how, even though Trump’s foreign policy approach appears to be kind of working — at least in the case of securing peace with North Korea — it definitely doesn’t make any real sense.

“Look, if this literal s–t circus leads to some sort of lasting peace, I’m all for it,” she said. “But let’s not pretend that any of this is smart. It reminds me of that one time when I was 13 when I was bowling with my friends, and I hopped backwards on one leg and then bowled a strike, and then I just kept doing that because I thought it was my good luck charm. Did it work a couple of times? Yes. But was it an objectively good strategy? No. Did Jeremy ever want to go out with me again? Double-no! So that’s my advice to Trump and everyone on this whole thing. Keep doing whatever crazy s–t keeps our organs from melting in a mushroom cloud, but just admit that it’s incredibly dumb, and you’re dumb, and you have no plan!”

Such logic can only qualify one as both a dumbass and a progressive (but I repeat myself).
Oh, forgot, Wolf is a “journalist”.

If she almost had you up to that point that doesn’t speak well of you at all.

I guess that means she has nothing to worry about.

Wolf is not worthy of mention on FR.

I wonder how this sort of thing played out during the World War II era. I guess Churchill probably would not have made the bobbysoxer magazines back then, so FDR was okay to be allies with him.

Michelle is doing all she can to attract attention to her TV show. Semaphores haven’t worked. Mooning hasn’t worked.
Maybe this will stir the magic once again.

Michelle Wolf is not a journalist although she pretended to be funny at the WH Dinner.

Mistake understood.

Typical feminist approach .....looks over compitence......Trudeau is an incompetent airhead, an entitled frat boy whose experience in the real world consist of...part time drama teacher, snowboard instructor and bouncer at my friends Whistler B.C. Pub...a rank amateur negotiating against a successful Manhattan Real Estate Mogul....what could possibly go wrong...Trump can spot a fake a mile away and he’s had the Canadian phony from the get-go.

I think Justin Trudeau is gross and effeminate looking, but I’m a straight male so what do I know? I thought the Kennedys were ugly too.

Poor Michelle Wolf. Can you imagine these idiot Democrats running our country? Obama tried his best to destroy the American Republic..he failed. But...he did manage to destroy the Democrat Party.

And....now, Democrats, Nancy Pelosi & Chuck Schumer are screaming for Obama to come out of his hiding place and assume the leadership of the Democrat Party. Can they really that dumb and disconnected to the real world?

Go...Trump...Have a fantastic great and successful rally in Duluth next week. MAGA!!!

They obviously got that from me saying BO never wanted ANYONE in the room smarter than him.

Hence we got HRC, Biden, and the rest of the dummies that made up his inner circle.

V Jarrett was the exception BUT you always saw her behind him, hands not visible and her trying to not move her lips while BO ‘spoke’.

If Trump was a liberal pushing a liberal agenda, they would understand he is “selling” his ideals.

Ideals(specifically the NK deal)BECAUSE previous administrations FAILURE utterly to prevent Lil Kim from getting nukes and latter getting the missile technology to marry them together to make an international nuclear threat.

Wolfe maybe this dense but others in the media surely are not and must be acting naive.
Who gets a crap about Trump “saluting’ a Nork flunkie general if it saves Seoul from being wiped off the face of the earth.

Trump is doing the bad cop/good cop routine to get Lil Kim to go along with the program.
