Honestly, I highlight most of this garbage. Trump is a shitty president and the media is left as crap. Fake news, reality star as president, etc.

Don't start back peddling now, you know exactly what you said.

Every current U.S. actions runs completely counter to your continued implications.  Given the U.S. presence in your Europe it would be wholly impossible to conduct war against NATO member countries and not attack U.S. military facilities and personnel.   To attempt to do so would essentially admitting you've lost before you've even started.   It's about time NATO member countries get put on notice that they have to carry more of the weight, it's long over due. 

Of course, what you'll never discuss is that the United States and NATO have completely under cut the original intent of NATO by engaging in unilateral war against sovereign nations that posed no security threat whatsoever to NATO and its member countries.  Completely violating the NATO charter.

Quote
Michael Isikioff of Yahoo News reported that four top D.C. lawyers had refused to handle Trump’s defense.
...
Isikoff’s reporting suggests that a lifelong habit of skipping out on bills has saddled Trump with an attorney ill-prepared for the task ahead.

He's such a goddamn dipshit.

Interesting juxtaposition.

That might be the most unsubstantiated allegations ever contained in a single article (what MIR would call "strawmen"). It reads like WaPo editorial board fan fiction.  Nice find

Trump's unyielding, 100% deference to Putin, to me, seems disproportionate to guilt associated with hacked email/troll farm election meddling.

Why is David Frum treated with anything but contempt? He has tried to wash the Iraq stink off, but he is incapable of ever truly owning up to even the basic facts of his involvement or the catastrophic costs. The very same David Frum that now wants to start a war with Iran. It is ok to think he is bad.

i think this is right in the placement of trump as a symptom of a much larger problem.  the real danger is the elevation of more competent actors, when trump fades.

Also he's really old. Like how much could Hitler have accomplished if he was 70 when he got power?
