Dubai sold the world a skyline. Today tourists in Dubai are filming missile interceptions from the beach instead of sunsets. Every video shared is a tourism brochure burning in real time. You cannot sell safety at 2,000 dollars a night when your guests are watching air defense systems work from their 5 star hotel

Now that Obama’s poll numbers are in tailspin – watch for him to launch a strike in Libya or Iran. He is desperate.

I am allowed to destroy a country. I am even allowed to impose a destructive embargo on a foreign country. I can do whatever I want – Trump. Trump is completely insane.

In any other time or presidency, this story. reported by @WSJ, would be an earthquake of a scandal. The size, scope and implications of it are unprecedented and mind-boggling. But will this Congress, which brayed endlessly about the "Biden crime family," probe it? Not a chance.

It is difficult to describe what kind of morally depraved, malignantly narcissistic mindset you have to have to only ‘feel bad’ for dead people based on whether their parents voted for you. He may be the worst person to ever feature in American public life.
Crooked Media@CrookedMedia

“And I’m not sure about [Alex Pretti’s] parents, but I know [Renee Good’s] parents were big Trump fans. Makes me feel bad anyway, but, I mean, I guess you could say even worse— They were tremendous Trump people, Trump fans.” —Trump

It remains incomprehensible to me that any country still considering itself civilized allows federal officers to appear: 1. Masked; 2. Armed; 3. Without name tags; 4. Without any accountability. ICE belongs to military dictatorships. Has Trump already brought the US there? Sad.

No, they're not Navy Seals. They're not Delta Force. They're not going to fight terrorists, or foreign armies, or organized crime, or violent criminals. They have all that firepower to beat up grannies from Honduras, go up against 5-year-olds, and shoot Americans in the back.

American tech billionaires are making a calculated bet on fascism. They believe they can control a dictator in exchange for deregulation and total market dominance. They don't care about your rights or the constitution. They only care about securing their own power

This is the grim, depressing reality Trump has made of American life. Instead of waking up on a Saturday, relaxing and spending time with your loved ones, you now have to watch American towns being ravaged and its citizens being murdered by violent secret police.

This is what Minnesota looks like right now. I don't think the US has three more years of Trump in it.

Fucking prick My son spent 6 months in Iraq, and then two 7 month tours of Afghanistan with the Royal Marines He fought hard in Sangin saw friends die, or be maimed. He bears scars of his own, and he did it because the USA triggered article 5 Risible, amoral fucking bastard

Trump on NATO: "I've always said, will they be there if we ever needed them? That's really the ultimate test. I'm not sure of that. We've never needed them. They'll say they sent some troops to Afghanistan and this or that. And they did. They stayed a little back, off the front lines."

Two conclusions from the amazing Trump turnaround on Greenland: 1. If you're firm, and have sufficient power, he will back down. 2. The most powerful man in the world is visibly losing his marbles. And we have up to 3 more years of this to survive…
