    1. As Rahm Emanuel pointed out to Jon Stewart this week (watch it if you haven’t already — best 20 minutes of television in years):  [Paraphrasing]  — We had China isolated in jail, and [Dingus McAdderall] just handed them a get-out-of-jail-free card.

       I’m hoping to see the video where both receive their deserved hot poker up their southern exposure.

       

    2. Oh yeah, every world leader are fighting each other to get their place in line to kiss Trump's F A T orange ass.

       

      Why it's all over the news.

      1. Actually. I was temporarily dumbfounded when I heard him say it last night. Though, after a moments' consideration, that kind of vulgar hubris is to be expected from that awful excuse for a human being.

  1. I don't doubt the eventual outcome of a contest of resolve between 

    • the current *resident, Congressional leaders Thune & Johnson, & the minions of the Mad!-ministration and 
    • President and General Secretary Xi Jinping, Premier Li Qiang and those of the Central Committee in the PRC

    I am uncertain what sort of "victory" Trump will declare, but am confident outside observers now and historians will label it another Pyrrhic victory. "One more such victory against the Romans and we are undone."  

  2. I've been Debbie Downer about stock prices lately, so here's a story from today in fairness. T***p announced tariff increases on a lot of countries would be held back for a while, and the Dow shot up like 2,300 points in no time flat. Was it deliberate to tank for a few days so he could say "biggest single-day increase ever" when it shot back up?

    1. I can't take any credit for making a super-obvious prediction, but he's out there now saying it was the "biggest day in financial history." I quit, I give up.

      1. Yep, that is classic Trump!  But experts are all calling BS on Trump

        Diane Swonk, the chief economist at KPMG and one of the many business economists who spent many hours calculating the impact of Trump’s maximalist tariff plan that went into effect at midnight only to have the 90-day pause on them announced today, didn’t mince words voicing her frustration. “This is nuts. Damage done. Market relief is a headfake, unless the administration makes a major course correction,” she argued, adding, “Uncertainty is its own tax on the economy.”
