The concept of creating a “safe zone” in Syria is exactly the right proscription here. OK, we don’t want to conquer the whole country, but surely we can grab a piece of it and hold it for refugees. When the fighting eventually ends, they can rebuild their own country. I support it.

A beautiful report in the UK Guardian, showing Trump being confused, the audience laughing at his responses, and in general, showing him to be an idiot.

Much like I imagine they showed Reagan to be an idiot.

Oh, and they inferred that Trump cut the link before anyone could ask him questions.

The idea being, of course, that even he knows he’s too much of a dolt to be able to answer even the simplest of questions.

I think if the worst thing is the use of the word “the”, then Trump did well. Interesting that there is no word for “the” or “a” in the Russian language I imagine Ukranian is similar. This is a tricky problem in translation.

who referred repeatedly to “the Ukraine”, apparently oblivious to the fact the use of the definite article when referring to the country is considered insulting by Ukrainians.

Really? That's been the way it's always been referred to in English. I'm tired of everyone telling us what the English word for their country country should be. We don't say "Italia" or "Deutscheland" either and I don't see Italians or Germans getting bent out of shape about it.

But I thought Trump foamed at the mouth, exposed himself, spoke Latin backward, and levitated off the stage at this meeting?

Let the Euros laugh at Trump.

They will eventually catch on...and they won't be laughing then.
