#4 but keep in mind that King George V, Kaiser Wilhelm II and Tsar Nicholas II were all first cousins.
The result was World War 1 followed by WW2!
#16 Marcus Tullius Cicero
A nation can survive its fools, and even the ambitious. But it cannot survive treason from within. An enemy at the gates is less formidable, for he is known and carries his banner openly. But the traitor moves amongst those within the gate freely, his sly whispers rustling through all the alleys, heard in the very halls of government itself.
For the traitor appears not a traitor; he speaks in accents familiar to his victims, and he wears their face and their arguments, he appeals to the baseness that lies deep in the hearts of all men.
He rots the soul of a nation, he works secretly and unknown in the night to undermine the pillars of the city, he infects the body politic so that it can no longer resist. A murderer is less to fear.”
Born: January 3, 106 BC, Arpino, Italy

Cicero was great.
Thanks for that.
I have an idea. Howzabout if your name is Habib, Mohammed, Salami, Nidal, Hussein, falafel, etc, you are not allowed to be an advisor to the President of the USA.
Half of DC can donate a kidney to the other half.
In 2013, Powell dined with Abedin and the wife of wealthy Saudi Prince Alwaleed bin Talal. Also present was Jenna Bush Hager, the daughter of George W. Bush, and Arianna Huffington.
The hand of Saudi Wahhabi Petrodollars, promoting the most virulent form of Islam.
And looky,looky here, what do we have?
A BUSH!!! I am so SHOCKED! SHOCKED I tell you!
“All of DC is in bed together. It’s the old boys’ club. Evil.”
But we are lucky. I bet Kim the Nork fatso could NEVER hit DC with a nuke. Nope, that would show the world his program was really not to be messed with. But it’s really just beyond his capability.
(Nork agents lurking, yep. Americans laugh at you because we know you could NEVER deliver a nuke to DC. Honest injun, hope to die, that’s what we think. We dare you. We double dog dare you)
” So all the hyperventilating about Javanka and Dina etc etc doesn’t change the fact that Trump has is miles ahead of any politician in DC.”
He’s miles ahead. But Habib doesn’t belong there. Neither does McMaster. And neither does Ivanka who doesn’t have the slightest clue about anything but fashion, and the Manhattan social scene.
Maybe Trump can save the Dem party?
If Trump is fine with them being there, then it’s ok with me. He is the only one I trust.
One hand washes the other as they engage in political incest.......
I trust him, and support him. But I didn’t check my common sense at the hatroom. Dina has no business being there...period. Neither does Ivanka.
I trust done of them anymore. Not Trump as I do not know what he is doing, what team he is on, where he is going with his hubris and contretemps, tantrums, letting people “go” who were very clearly on his team, keeping people like Jared and Ivanka who swill with the filth. I don’t trust any of them...and my trust can only be regained when we have an honest broker. Who is that? I thought it was Trump but I think I was bamboozled.
Are we at the end of honest brokers? No more lining up to be beaten up by the media and cheated by their “friends”?
And McMaster is the one who made sure Powell stayed around.
Here's the big BUT...How did a self made,incredibly successful businessman with incredible vision fail so horribly in the simple art of human resource putting together an administration? The man who coined "You're fired" and "Drain the Swamp" has settled for underachieving,disloyal,dishonest and ideologically opposite administration members while keeping a gross amount of Obama holdovers. There are exceptions but "Swamp Draining" and replacement gets a "D".
This is constructive criticism because it would be devastating to see the full potential of the MAGA agenda go by the wayside. The only way to do it is by putting the right team of people in place that accentuate MAGA and implement its short and long term goals under the auspices of President Trump.
They’ve been by his side, saying the exact opposite of what we want. Guys like McMaster and Kelly have been by his side bragging in Aspen how they have hopefully moderated his talk of an actual wall.
“By his side” doesn’t mean much to me if its advocating the opposite of what we voted for. And a deep friend of Valery Jarrett, the Bush twins, and Chelsea has no place there at all.
I voted for him to drain the swamp, not invite it in.
