On Jan. 17, President Trump tweeted: “No ‘Cave’ on the issue of Border and National Security.” Eight days later, he caved, agreeing to reopen the government for three weeks without getting a penny for his border wall. 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

He's nothing more than a paid propagandist for war merchants.
Everyone is running around claiming that Pelosi outplayed Trump ... which means the Republican Party leadership has successfully played a con game on all of you dopes and completely whitewashed its own failure on border security for TWO YEARS.
Russian Jews from Moscow? I’ll eat my shoe if Max Boot is his real name. I would simply assume that he’s a CIA operative with a fictitious identity.
“...Romney is the problem....”
No doubt. Murkowski too. That goes to my point that the GOP was not unified. That being said, POTUS still needs them to get his judges through. Politics is ugly, dirty, obscene business.
Synagouge of Satan bastard who should be run out of America.
Great anoligy.
Yes.
Sleeping Beauty, Superman and Pinocchio were walking down the street together when they came to a Night Club with a sign that said, "Beauty Contest - $50,000 prize and a trophy to the winner". Sleeping Beauty said, "wait here for me, I think I can win this contest". She goes in and a short while later comes out with a trophy and $50,000 dollars in cash.
So they walk a couple of more blocks and come to another Night Club with a sign that says, "Strongest Man in the World Contest, $50,000 and a trophy to the winner. Superman says, "wait here for me I think I can win this contest. A short while later he comes out with a trophy and $50,000 in cash.
They continue walking along and soon come to another club with a sign that says, "Greatest Liar in the World Contest, $50,000 and a trophy to the winner. Pinocchio says, "wait here for me I think I can win this contest. He goes in and Sleeping Beauty and Superman are waiting and waiting and waiting when finally Pinocchio comes out with a bewildered look on his face and nothing in his hands and says, " Who the hell is Nancy Pelosi?"

Nancy ran rings around herself. She now has to negotiate in good faith. Guess what happens if she doesn’t.
Trump declares a national emergency and the wall gets built.
Her victory freezes in place, and rapidly disintegrates.
DACA, her big project that she has declared support for, it will never happen. She refuses to give Trump funds for the wall, so DACA dies on the vine.
Nice job San Fran Nan.
Explain that victory again...
His birth name was But. It means Booth in Russian. After moving to the USA his family decided to go by Boot for obvious reasons.
Max sounds like some our very own concern trolls....
Remember when Playboy magazine reportedly offered Sarah Palin $4,000,000 to pose nude in an upcoming issue?
Then, Michelle Obama was offered $500 by National Geographic to keep her clothes on.
Next, KFC offered a “Hillary” meal, consisting of two small breasts and two large thunder thighs?
Now KFC has a new offer, the “Nancy Pelosi Special,” It consists of nothing but tough left over left wings and C$hit.
Just keeping you up to date.
