Trump (cont): Nothing to see here, nope not a Russian in sight

[CaveMum]

Sorry for the rubbish title but I couldn't see a new thread!

hahahahaha I started one too. i'll have mine deleted. That's what we get for waiting so long.

Trump is da bomb.

Thanks, Cave.

I like Ginger's opaque chocolate cake reference. Will you and Ginger have a new thread face off like Trump & North Korea?

Oh - and Ginger also.

Nope. I've already put a link to this one on mine, and requested MNHQ delete mine. I won't escalate. nothing to see here.

Oh, there's an interesting Trump-smashcake-Homeland threads crossover going on.

If only Donnie had your restraint, Ginger.

Last night I spoke with Xi - BUT I DON'T KNOW PUTIN & Xi is president of China. We will do North Korea alone. But alone with others. #Trump pic.twitter.com/ldv0PxVBpa

Thanks both! Is this going to turn into brinkmanship or will we go straight to deploying bombs ala trump?

Well after today's 'business'...............

Phew, thanks CaveMum close call.

I did contemplate using MOAT somewhere in the title (Mother Of All Threads) following today's events, but thought maybe it's a bit soon!

Sorry Ginger, by the time the next thread comes round hopefully this darn baby will be out so you're free to have that one!

I feel so far down the rabbit hole now.....

Cave Silly. I'm not bothered in the least. I don't actually like starting threads, but noticed we didn't have one and well, you know the rest. I'm quite happy to be on this one.

How a US attack/invasion of Syria and Iran helps various players-got all this?

Have they given any more info on the death of Sheila Abdus-Salaam? The reporting is very vague, they're not saying if it's a suspicious death or not.

Pompeo: "You got a weapon of mass distraction? I can grab your news cycle by the balls any time I feel like it #Wikileaks" - #translated

I was just going to mention the judge found in the Hudson tonight:

I found you! I thought you had gone into hiding and I might have to resort to dropping the big one to flush you out.

Whew, thought I'd lost you all in the 1000th post blast zone!!! (Too soon?)

Ok so how this:

Trump and his children are flying to Washington DC. Trump says "I think I'll throw a $1000.00 bill out the window and make somebody very happy". Eric says "Dad, why don't you throw ten $100 bills out the window and make 10 people very happy". Ivanka says "No Daddy, why don't you throw a hundred $10.00 bills out the window and make 100 people very happy." The pilot says "Why don't you all just jump out the window, that'll make everybody very happy!!"
