June 10 Open Thread: Toddler Trump Tries to Wreck G7

Filed in National by on June 10, 2018

I’ll cut to the chase: Anything Trump says about why he sabotaged the G7 meeting is bullshit meant to cover up the real reason: He wouldn’t cross Putin with the communique’s demands that Moscow “cease with its destabilising behaviour” and withdraw its support for Syrian President Bashar al-Assad.

As for Trump’s idiot suggestion that Russia be re-admitted to the group, it should be noted that Russia’s economy ranks from 11th to 13th in nominal GDP depending on who’s doing the figuring, with South Korea and Australia either just ahead or just behind it. China, India and Brazil all are a good bit larger, and nobody’s inviting them to the table (not industrialized enough).

He likes to claim that nobody’s been tougher on Russia than he has, but as usual the opposite is true — he’s triple-ply Charmin on the ass of the Russian bear, which has just shit in our woods.

    Whatever Putin hoped to get from helping Trump – he got it and MUCH more.

    All cops are the incredibly shady and thuggish. Good cops don’t stand up because they want similar treatment. It’s a government sanctioned gang.

    This fucking Capriglione has been a god damn nuisance in Newport since I was a kid.

    Great work from my man Lex. FYI men and women of the fuzz. This is bad look for you and it’s why I don’t trust any of you. You even turn dogs into snitches and tools of terror.
