It comes to something when a statement from KJU sounds pretty measured and sane.

Anyone else really starting to understand what the Chinese mean by using "may you live in interesting times" as a curse?

cozietoesie · 22/09/2017 21:28

I think that KJU is demented. (I averred to my DBro that having his people executed by anti-air missiles might have been quite humane when he could have had them eaten by wild dogs or torn apart by wild horses - but DBro rightly pointed out that any wild dogs or wild horses would long ago have been eaten in NK.)

He's cunning though.

cozietoesie · 22/09/2017 21:32

KJU thinks he has 45's measure. He probably does. He doesn't have the measure of Mattis, though,

The Korean original statement said "늙다리 미치광이," which means old beast lunatic -- which was translated into "dotard."

I know dotard works but I rather like the original.

Me also. Smile

This is also good if you are in 'a pox on your house' mood.

Bannon is 'in the cold' now - and I doubt he likes it much. Being able to phone 46 just isn't the same as being in the WW, physically, day on day.

How much of this is down to 45's - frankly stupid - comment is anyone's guess.

James Clapper to @ErinBurnett: "Our intelligence community assessment [about Russia] did cast doubt on the legitimacy of the election."
Clapper said Trump was courteous when briefed but was explaining why Trump might now be reluctant to accept the Intel community's findings.

Very revealing that the harshest language Trump has ever used as President was reserved for Black men protesting injustice.

TRUMP: “Wouldn't you like to see one of our NFL owners, when somebody disrepects the flag, say, 'Get that son of a bitch off the field..."

Of course, his followers at the rally in Alabama, applauded this.
Seriously unpresidential Trump
