Negotiations with who?

When you keep announcing ‘last chance’ after ‘last chance’ after ‘last chance’... Your credibility erodes... In the case of Trump that happened about five ‘last chances’ ago. The believability factor is over and most people are now bored of this nonsense.

I used to forget to put my kid’s dough in. We would slip it in the next day under the bed and say it fell out of the Tooth Fairy’s grasp.

I hate this. I’m the biggest supporter out there but they are mocking him and US Ronald Reagan spoke about speaking something big stick. At this point all we do is speak.

Oman... Another untrustworthy despot kingdom in an area full of despot kingdom’s created out of whole cloth by the British and French after World War 1.

You can’t trust any of them.

It seems like a little market manip and then some Iranian moles pop up and it's time to whack them again.

Pattern.
