Summations Only

His narcissism is the basis for his foreign policy. If a world leader says nice things about Trump, he will bend over backwards to do whatever they want. Putin is a perfect example of this.He doesn't care if he uses lies to attack people that are critical of his policies.Today's policies are tomorrow's garbage. He thinks the best path is whatever he feels like that day.Trump thinks women are sex objects, and little else.Those are a few off the top of my head.

His Twitter outrage against SNL skits is a perfect example. You never saw Obama being outraged by the same thing. Trump's recent raging fit against Meryl Streep is another good example.

Trumps own words:1. Narcissism and foreign policy:

quote:

---

LAUER: Do you think the day that you become president of the United States, he's going to change his mind on some of these key issues?

​

TRUMP: Possibly. It's possible. I don't know, Matt. It's possible. And it's not going to have any impact. If he says great things about me, I'm going to say great things about him. I've already said, he is really very much of a leader. I mean, you can say, 'Oh, isn't that a terrible thing' -- the man has very strong control over a country.

2. Does he still want to throw women in prison for getting abortions? Is he still appointing a special prosecutor to go after Hilary Clinton? Is he still arresting all these criminal immigrants within the first hour of his presidency, as he stated in his speech on immigration? I could go on with hours listing his flip-flops.3. Multiple women have come forward describing how Trump has assaulted them.These aren't opinions. These are facts. Why do you hate the idea that people shouldn't be proud of saying racist, hurtful, and misogynistic things?Edited by Taq, : No reason given.

"And in all of my years of public life, I have never obstructed justice. And I think, too, that I could say that in my years of public life, that I welcome this kind of examination, because people have got to know whether or not their president is a crook. Well, I am not a crook. I have earned everything I have got."--Richard NixonNixon said this about a year before Congress impeached him, with the first charge being obstruction of justice. Hearing Nixon's words coming out of Donald Trump's mouth is beyond spooky.Edited by Taq, : No reason given.

It is a bit self serving when the party full of the incompetents is the one who says to vote for them because the government is incompetent.For example, they will run on the idea that government is incapable of handling healthcare, so you are better off on your own. To prove themselves right, they screw up healthcare.Until people wake up and figure out that there is only one popular political party who is trying to do good by the American people, we will continue to see incompetence in government. Apparently, there are tons of conservatives who are willing to lose affordable access to healthcare just to have an orange man yell out "Radical Islamic Terrorism" at the local tractor pull.

This also speaks to a much broader problem. Just a few months ago it was reported that US intelligence organizations were holding back information from Trump because they were afraid he would just blurt it out. It seems their fears were well founded.We have a President who has so little self control that he will out important intelligence assets and partners just to brag to our enemies of how wonderful his briefings are. This was after Putin called Trump and asked him to meet with his foreign secretary and ambassador, about which Trump stated that he couldn't say no to Putin.So we have a weak President who can't say no to Putin, and then blurts out random pieces of sensitive intelligence because he can't help himself. Buckle up folks, it's going to get bumpy.

What bias?The information that Trump shared was not his to give. Israel gave us that information with the promise that we wouldn't tell other people. That's a much different situation than sharing information that we haven't promised to keep secret.

Could you imagine what would have happened if Obama fired the lead investigator for the Benghazi incident, went on TV and flat out said that he fired the investigator because he wanted the Benghazi investigation to wrap up, and then asked the FBI director to lay off the Hillary email investigation?How many minutes would it take Republicans to vote for impeachment if those events took place?

Exactly. Anything Republicans do is considered just fine by other Republicans, no matter what it is. If a Democrat does the same things they scream to the high heavens.

Russia absolutely detests the US influence in the region so they would be all to happy to have those agent/s dead and then blame it on the loose lips of Trump. Anything that diminishes US projected power is a win for the Russians.Afterall, why did Russia erect anti-aircraft batteries in Syria? The rebels fighting in the Syrian civil war don't have any airplanes. The only airplanes fighting in that war are Russian and Syrian planes. The answer is really simple. Those missiles are there as a deterrent to US aircraft.

If so, Trump is doing the best impression of a guilty person that I have seen in a while.

Russia would probably love to be Israel's favorite ally and have the US kicked to the curb. Russia and the US are, and Russia would love for the US to lose face.

Intelligence agencies have always withheld knowledge of sources and methods from the President unless they were vital for decision making processes. That same information is also compartmentalized in the agencies themselves. There's nothing wrong with that.With Trump, we have something much more pernicious. We have a person who release damaging classified information for the simple purpose of stroking his own ego. That is scary.

The mental picture of cabinet secretaries trying to outdo each other with their Trump B-Day gifts both entertains and scares the shit out of me. Either way I get to laugh hysterically.

Or at least some scraps from the Fox News table. I, for one, wouldn't want to be getting on a ship when the rats are running the other way. Even top notch defense attorneys are turning the Trump down, but that might have more to do with Trump's penchant for not paying lawyer bills.
