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!

The original House of cards is amazing. I just couldn't get into the American one at all.

The #TaxMarch is such a success that Trump and the Republicans are probably thinking of who they will bomb next to create a diversion.

Donald Trump has 'backed himself into a corner' over North Korea ind.pn/2oKUkxJ

I agree - he's been played on this one. The trouble is the risk of 'inadvertence'.

Urquhart is so preternaturally evil!

I love him! He's just so fucking evil but so pleased with himself. Still need to watch the final part.

Close to $500K in Trump re-election campaign funds have gone to Trump-owned properties www.wsj.com/articles/donald-trumps-companies-benefit-from-campaign-funds-1492233939?mod=e2tw …

He told The Independent President may have “boxed himself into a corner” by vowing not to tolerate any more violations from North Korea when the country has so far been undeterred by the international community.

That is the beauty of conducting international negotiations away from the public eye, instead of through tweets.
Why most politicians only voice what is sure. Or that they are prepared to carry through. For better or worse, that's what both Presidents Bush did in relation to Iraq.

The North Korea situation is mighty dicey. You can't predict how a maniacal cult leader with a huge army will react. Or Kim Jong Un either.

Look who's at our march!!!

I've just discovered that 'Testament' has appeared on Netflix.

Don't watch it if you're feeling fragile. Really.

More relevant than Boris Epshteyn's Moscow childhood—in my opinion—is that he's known Eric Trump since Georgetown.

Carter wants a deal. FBI laughs in his face. He goes on TV.
Epshteyn wants a deal. FBI laughs again. He renews his Russian passport.

But the solution for Syria is to throw a few bombs at an air field and just leave it be.

Potential conflicts surrounding President Trump's appointees are arising across the executive branch nyti.ms/2oyx8AY

This is an alternative fact clip, but it's a good metaphor of how the Trump Presidency presents itself and it's going. Except that I suspect they still won't believe the other guy and not change course.

Beautiful day for Democracy. Bigly crowd. The best weather. Now all we need is chocolate cake.

Well done.

Thank you for posting that, Across.

Needed to see some happy pictures after the reports from Syria.

That's really cheering across
