Check out the above clip of our boorish, ill-mannered, egomaniacal monstrosity, and Republican excuse for a president as he shoves his way to front and center for the camera.
Trump was in Brussels, Belgium (a city he has previously rudely called a “hellhole”) for meetings with the other leaders of NATO. There he is, Don the Con, folks, in all his glory, pride of the Republican Party, a “man” who lives off loans and largesse from Russian oligarchs and praises Putin while denigrating our NATO allies and their leaders and the very concept of NATO itself, just like his Russian friends do-- and wanted him to do.
When we were attacked on 9/11/01, it was NATO that was the first to come to our defense with troops and aid. But, here Trump is, acting like a gorilla, disrespectfully shoving his way past Montenegro’s new Prime Minister, Dusk Markovic, to the front of the group to primp and pose for the camera, acting like some overly full of himself 3rd world dictator.
To Markovic’s credit and as a sign of the class that is notably missing form our leader, he diplomatically said that he wasn’t offended. Sure.
If I’d been Markovic’s place, I would have quickly tripped Don the Con and grabbed him by the tie as he fell to the ground, saying, “when you’re the PM, they let you do it.” But then, no one ever accused me of being a politician.
What an embarrassment for our country! Notice how Trump also dismisses one of the other leaders by turning his head from her. How much more damage from this miscreant before he's gone? I hope the other leaders checked for their wallets as Trump moved through the crowd.
By the way, Prime Minister Markovic, is the NATO leader that Putin has been particularly outspoken against and working to sabotage. So, this was Trump delivering a message from Putin as much as anything else.
Ring Of Fire’s Farron Cousins has more, much more on the Trumpanzee’s shitwalk through the Middle East and Europe:
If only we could, like I said last week, ban Trump and his gang of future convicts from re-entering what is still, for now, our country!
"...no one ever accused me of being a politician."
ReplyDeleteI'd vote for ya, Noah!
I don't wish to cease being appalled by Trump -- that would mean I've accepted him.
For every reader here that is appalled and humiliated by this orange-utang, there are 10K Nazi fucktards with raging boners over it. And every single one of them votes. every. time.
ReplyDeleteponder that.
And ponder what we have (not) to vote for.
It's not "our" country any more. It has belonged to the big money for decades now. And now the big money is sharing some of it with the neo-nazis and other haters. Once that sharing starts costing them money, they'll maybe change things. But for now, they're looking at a few trillion (over a decade) in tax/reg relief if their people get what they are demanding. So they're all in.
ReplyDeleteSaying it's "still our country" is delusional and indicates a total lack of cognizance of anything that has happened for 40 years.
Dear Anonymous, Saying "still our country" is not "delusional". It is ironic, deliberately so.
ReplyDeleteAs for what choices we have among politicians to vote for, readers of DWT know that we ponder that, in depth, every day.
Thank you for reading and thank you for your comments.
Noah. Ok. Ironic. But tragically so.
ReplyDeleteVoters haven't demanded it be "our country" since at least Eisenhower. JFK at the latest.
Voters ceded the nation to the CMIC during Viet Nam and have ceded it to the money since Reagan.
Above local seats, there are no candidates not in the Green Party that want to return sovereignty to the voters... because the voters never demand it.
There are so few like Jayapal any more, and the democraps thwart all they can to keep more from joining her/them.
So the word "choice" is also ironic?
