Trump posted this less than a year ago...



Guess how his mother and father-in-law just became US citizens? I doubt the irony of it will even bother him.


Probably because he has no idea what chain migration is or how it works.

This is a Stephen Miller thing that he somehow is listening too.

I bet he has no clue how his in laws (weird saying that seen as the father in law is younger than him) have green cards to begin with.

He is dumb. Show him love and then suggest any wacky or stupid idea or maybe a sinister idea like Miller has to him and he will repeat it. Not only that he will double down on it even though he has no clue what he is on about.
 
"QUACK!"

"what was that?"

"it wasn't a du.." "QUACK!"

"are you sure?"

What would the intelligence community's 'insurance policy' against Trump look like?

Ah yes the queen of conspiracies herself

The lady who says in her book that when her PC's were being hacked by the government they made a "reeeeeeeeeee" sound.

Straight out of fiction. Pretty sure computers don't make noises like they do in the movies to indicate someone hacking them.

Some of her work over the years is highly inaccurate and conspiracy like. Even before she claimed the government were after her she was all about conspiracies.

Sure she may make some good points and has had a few hits off accuracy but overall she is a nut.
 
For the first time in eighteen months, I found something positive that Trump has done.

Erdogan is a thug, certainly.

But sanctions have very poor track record of successfully effecting coercive power, and often backfire against those who impose them - as the United States will predictably discover once again in Iran. The Castros managed to shrug them off with no real trouble for decades.

Turkey is facing an unholy mess entirely of its own making, and the opportunity Trump has gifted him of being able to blame everything on the United States will seem like a hand reaching down from the heavens. Most people in the developing world despise the United States, usually for good reason, and it doesn't take much cunning to figure out how to exploit this. Every time an American president opens his mouth about Venezuela, for instance, Maduro buys another six weeks. Even Trudeau, the Ages-6-and-Under model of Macronism, has managed to recover from terrible polling simply by having the mantle of plucky bravery against the Yokel Empire thrust upon him by default.

If the United States were capable of wisdom in foreign affairs, it would instead just stand back and let Erdogan stew in his own mess rather than throwing escape ropes. American intervention will only rouse extremists, and make them appear sympathic, and the last thing the Middle East needs right now is yet another emboldened and incompent unhinged demagogue.

... though I do admire your effort
 
Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez denying Shapiro a debate. He then has a big cry about it - and doesn't know what an analogy is.

Can't stand that weird, dishonest midget.
 
on the off chance that anyone cares about Turkey, there is a risk of the crisis spreading. Eurozone banks - Spain in particular - are badly exposed to the Lira, and if it plays out especially badly, there is a distant possibility that we might be expected to bail them out yet again, which would be like all of Tommy Robinson's wet dreams combined into one, not least because the EU won't be able to mask what it is actually doing by gratuitously destroying an entire country for the next 50 years, like it did with Greece in rescuing Germany's spectacularly incompetent banks.

Turkey is also the first canary in the coal mine. The US dollar is soaring, in part because of the tax cuts and in part because with China slowing down, and Britain and the EU committing suicide by austerity, and the persistant lack of any interest rates, the US stock (read tech) bubble is practically the only game in town in terms of returns. An expensive dollar makes it far more difficult for emerging markets to pay back their dollar-denominated loans, and with demand for their raw materials concurrently slowing in tune with China's doldrums, Turkey may not be the first EM to buckle under these pressures. The strong dollar, ironically, is also bad in many ways for the US stock market bubble, because it makes foreign investment more expensive, because it lowers the value of US firms' overseas profits and massive offshore holdings, and because it makes sustaining the absolute mountain of US corporate debt less desirable, which the US firms rely on to further boost the bubble, by buying their own stock rather than contributing anything actually productive.

all of which is a roundabout way of saying that it would be preferable if the Americans had opted not to be led by an ill-mannered toddler with no attention span.

Turkey is a delicate enough situation, but it may turn out to represent something quite a bit more serious.

the Obama Administration, to an extent which few people appreciate, saved the planet from (American-generated) utter financial armageddon a decade ago - it's doubtful that it is responsible enough or even intellectually capable of the same today
