Never trust #PedoPOTUS until the weapons are delivered. He is always stalling and delaying to give Putin time

All that money going from Europe to US defense contractors who are big Republican financial supporters might play a teeny, tiny part in this…

A huge part…and we would be foolish to trust anything other than a money trail with Trump…and so would the Coalition of the Willing or Ukraine - so I hope they also have a plan B or both Ukraine and Canada are in trouble

Yes, there are others who think that the defense contractors are behind this as well. Always follow the money!

There are so many incredibly accurate things in this column that I hardly know where to being.

Bottom lines to me:

1. The Bloated Yam's flunkies told him that Putin is playing him for a sucker. (The Yam is too stupid and demented to figure that out for himself)

2. The Bloated Yam's policies at home and abroad are falling on their face.

3. The Epstein mess will show him in flagrante delicto with a teenage girl.

I just hope the weapons are supplied before Trump flips again!

It is also a typical Trump move. Make a huge announcement to take the media's mind off Epstein. Happy if the weapons actually get there, but realize his tendency to change the news cycle..

Trump threatens Russia with tariffs if it doesn’t make peace in 50 days

Did you say they are using small cages?

" They are using cages. These detainees are living in cages. The pictures that you've seen don't do it justice. They are essentially packed into cages, wall to wall humans," said Wasserman Schultz. Judge Hernán Vera in Los Angeles ordering the Los Angeles Police Department to stop assaulting, detaining, and using nonlethal ammunition against journalists who are covering protests. He also ordered LAPD to stop limiting journalists’ movements absent conditions that absolutely require it.

Also in the Central District of California, Judge Maame Ewusi-Mensah Frimpong, in an order that applies only in that district, has granted a temporary restraining order directing DHS/ICE to stop making arrests in violation of the 4th Amendment, using appearance, accent, and type of work to arrest people, because none of those considerations amount to probable cause. She’s also ordered that people who have been detained are entitled to access to legal counsel and access to confidential phone calls at no cost with their counsel—none of which should even be an issue.

It's all a set up to gaslight the American people into believing that Trump and his long time lover, Putin, are at odds. When is Trump going to send the weapons to Ukraine? Why isn't he putting these new sanctions on Russia today instead of two months out? That time frame gives Russia time to invade and take all of Ukraine while that liar Trump can keep his hands clean. He's as much a part of this as Putin is. All of a sudden Trump has empathy for Ukraine? He has no feelings for anyone but himself. He's a full blown Psychopath which leaves him soulless.

I’ve always said malignant narcissist. Also the 50 days is a surprise - he usually says 2 weeks

That's exactly what I said. Donny two weeks is now Donny two months. Gives Putin lots of time to do lots of damage.

On Epstein in particular, I'm almost 100% certain that Donald has never read a page of Shakespeare in his life, but surely he now understands the expression, "Hoisted by my own petard"

When you lie down in a cesspool of your own creation, don't be surprised if you end up reeking of excrement.

Marshall you are too kind to Mad King Darn'old Drumpf of Dementia-Felonia.

He would think in that context "petard" would be a synonym for "boner."

He probably wouldn’t understand the words ‘hoisted’ and ‘petard’.

I was just going to point that out. Grandpa had prostitution associated with all his businesses - barber shop, lodging & eateries - primarily in Canada for the prospectors heading to the Klondike Gold Rush - but also in Washington state.

INSTEAD!

Instead of acquiescing or attempting to placate the White House, the Brazilian leader is standing up to the U.S. president. “If he charges 50 from us, we will charge 50 from them.” “Respect is good. I like to offer mine, and I like to receive it.

CANADA?

‘He’s Nuts, Your Trump.’ Canada Unites Against America.

Even here, it is hard for an American not to feel the anger and incredulity President Trump has stoked with his tariffs, talk of a 51st state and offhand insults.

However, the tariff wars play out, the growing sense in Canada that the “good America” is gone is likely to linger for a long time. Mr. Carney is already in the process of seeking stronger trade relations with Europe and Mexico. And Canadians have begun re-examining the bonds they’ve forged with the United States over the years and their own complex identity, including the geographic and language differences that have fed tenacious secessionist movements in the oil-rich province of Alberta or in French-speaking Quebec.

Tariffs on Brazil Could Leave Coffee Drinkers with a Headache

Trump’s pledge to place a 50 percent tariff on all imports from the South American nation will drive up the prices of coffee — and orange juice.

Found it hilarious that Mad King Darn'old Drumpf of Dementia-Felonia was trolled by a Russian politician today for his statement about a 50-day period for Putie to "come to the table for negotiations."

The pol said that the statement by the Pedophile-In-Chief was him again "blowing hot air."

Drumpf has his nose so far up Putie's ass that he can't see he's being made a world-class fool.

The internal contradictions in his multiple policies are now coming home to roost. The so-called American Firster who promised growth, prosperity and an end to "forever wars", now conducts his foreign policy as if arch-neocon John Bolton is running the show. It's even more extreme than the policies of Bush/Cheney. On domestic policy, Trump's team looks like a bunch of intellectually incoherent Peronists.

This reminds of one of those "Sounds to good to be true" events. I hope the weapons get to Ukraine before TACO flips again. I love how Zelensky thanked the "American People". He knows the real score.

So what if Putin had the "Epstein Goods" and so much more on tRump all along, and was holding it over his head, so to speak?

Now that it's all coming home to roost, also so to speak, I wonder if this about-face with Russia is buying tRump time and creds to wriggle out of this mess. When you're caught between a rock and a hard place, desperation leads to strange behaviour.

Also, tRump can't think himself out of a wet paper bag these days, so I wonder who's come up with this tactic.

It's almost Shakespearean; as if King Lear, Hamlet, Richard III, Twelfth Night, As You Like It, and A Midsummer Night's Dream were all rolled into one: "TACO Trump Does America".
