Nancy Pelosi ran rings around Trump. Imagine what Kim Jong Un and the Taliban will do.(Barf alert)
Washington Post ^ | January 26th 2019 | Max Boot

His right-wing allies are spluttering in rage, but they shouldn’t be surprised. This debacle confirms that Trump is not the “ultimate negotiator” he purports to be. He is, in fact, a lousy negotiator. Now he may be on the verge of concluding the worst deals of the century by pulling U.S. troops out of South Korea and Afghanistan in return for empty promises from Kim Jong Un and the Taliban.

Trump is preparing for a second summit at the end of February with Kim even though the North Korean dictator continues to expand, rather than dismantle, his nuclear and missile programs. In his New Year’s address, Kim demanded substantial concessions before he would begin to make good on his vague promises of denuclearization made at the June 12, 2018, Singapore summit. He wants a relaxation of sanctions, an end to U.S.-South Korean military exercises, a peace declaration ending the Korean War and the removal of U.S. nuclear weapons from the region.

National security adviser John Bolton, supposedly a hard-liner, just signaled that the administration may give North Korea what it wants. He told the Washington Times, in an interview published Friday, that “what we need from North Korea is a significant sign of a strategic decision to give up nuclear weapons, and it is when we get that denuclearization that the president can begin to take the sanctions off.” So much for the administration’s previous position that the United States would not relax sanctions until North Korea agreed to “complete, verifiable, and irreversible denuclearization.” Bolton is signaling that in exchange for some “significant

Trump will prevail. I’m very glad he’s my president and none of the people of your persuasion are not.

It does look bad.

As for everyone who says, “Trust the Plan,” I have to ask, someone planned that?

Basically you just have to take a deep breath and watch these idiots
smugly repeat this crap. They get off on it because they love to be in on the easy wins, but want to pull this stunt when they want to side with the Democrats.

They’ve done it before, then they slink back off and try to pretend like no one remembers later on.

Take names, and bookmark threads.

Reading these clowns has to make one smile.
After all, when you’re feeling down, there’s nothing like knowing that there are folks out there who are far dumber and less informed than anything you could imagine for yourself.

And when you’re back to feeling up, you know that your thoughts about these “journalists” was indeed true.

Can’t hack it in a difficult university major.
Journalism is for you.

Max Boot would tell us that Hitler got the better of Stalin and would be holding court in the Kremlin before the first snow falls. A perpetually wrong man.

Lefty and his mob of trolls say, “Trump caved! Vote against Trump!” No real conservative is moronic enough to believe that, and trolls are accomplishing nothing more than harassment.
