Here’s another theory being batted around over at The British Daily Telegraph: during the press conf. with Theresa May, May picked as the first questioner a Trump-hating BBC reporter - and she did it purposely to embarrass Trump and to “talk down to him.” Given that yesterday, she went before Parliament and blasted his policy of terrorism - I’m starting to believe this is accurate. We have no friends; only interests - if we’re lucky.
“We have no friends; only interests - if we’re lucky.”
And friendship, even in our own private lives, revolves around self-interest, let alone in politics, whose essence IS self-interest.
Neville Chamberlain. Redux.
