Paraphrasing Dwayne Johnson when there was unserious chatter about him running for president recently, he said “I used to think I was unqualified - but after 2016, now I think I’m overqualified.”

I really regret the age bracket I’m in. I would have liked to spend more than 5 years in the workforce with a mainstream party having a good grasp of anything fiscal.
At least when I was in High School Republicans knew how supply and demand worked.

Now that’s a recipe for disaster.
But I have to say that Trump was given a very good speech in Poland with some great points. So credit goes to people behind it and the underlying policies espoused in it.
Naturally, I’m using the phrase “was given” because Trump managed to reproduce it haphazardly in garbled chunks out of order on the opening ceremony.
It’s plainly obvious someone tried to coach him, but he mixed a lot of things up, conflated and omitted others, even asking “do you know what I am talking about?” to two presidents not as a turn of phrase but as a genuine question “did I remember this correctly? Is this making sense?”
True, yet he also complained about the US media, a former US president and our IC while on foreign soil.
That is a theory of economics put forth by the Bigly-Gooder Ecole D’economie more recently.
Its like this- You have 5 apples and someone else has 6 apples. Therefore I have the best apples.

Well, that seems his usual MO.
The novelty factor was the effort to lead (help/cajole?) Trump into transmitting a coherent message about a specific foreign policy topic with very mixed results.
EDIT: just realized someone put the effort into teaching Trump to pronounce the word “Krk” correctly. That must have taken some patience

No kidding. It actually makes me very nervous. I hate to think that I’m paranoid but it does seem that that tinfoil hats get more and more attractive as style statements in a Trump administration.

Director of the government office of ethics steps down. In keeping with the theme of I know this person style of picks here’s to hoping Trump’s hair stylist gets promoted.
It just occurred to me. We witnessed racism in action right here today: a white man banned a brown man from the site.
Raj would be so proud.

What could go wrong if Trump appoints a family member to the ethics office. It’s not like he’s giving a foreign agent a seat on the National Security Council again.

This is a pretty warm greeting, unlike his usual aggressive, “alpha” handshake.

The first minute or so is part of President Trump’s speech in Poland. But after that Greg Gutfeld comments on Trump’s speech and I thought that it was pretty powerful. I don’t want to beat a dead horse so for those who already heard Trump’s speech skip to about :51 to listen to Gutfeld.
It seems that G20 was also “bring your child to work” day. Does she have any official role to sit with other heads of state?

She’s not just his daughter though he has a long history of wanting to fuck her as well.
If someone called my daughter a piece of ass I’d punch them.
Anyways she’s a step up in intellect I’m sure. Maybe she can just take over and Dad can focus full time on bashing female journalists
Why are any on those women sitting there?
