Where is/can Donald Trump take US (sic)?

Does Donny Jnr operate without the knowledge of his father? That's the question that either sinks the Trump family or just the son.

FWIW, I think there's no way Trump Snr didn't know about this meeting, the dirt they were promising, or that it was coming from the Russian government. Proving it is still an unknown. If these emails are legitimate (which doesn't seem in question given Jnr released them when the NY Times called and asked him for comment before they published them themselves), then that Russia tried to influence the outcome of the US election seems unequivocal, and the Trump campaign was both aware of Russia's influence and accepted help.

I don't blame the Russians, every foreign power would do the same. I blame the idiot in the Oval Office who thought nothing of enlisting the help of a foreign power to win the presidency.

I always thought Jnr seems like a bit of a dope.

It probably doesn't matter whether Trump Snr knew about the meeting or not. It's another hole in the Swiss cheese of his Presidency which will weaken it untill it crumbles.
 
Hillary decided to send Trump a message to let him know how she felt.
He opened the letter to read a coded message

370HSSV 0773H.

Trump was baffled so asked his kids but no one could understand.
FBI, CIA, NSA had no idea. So he referred it to MI6.

Within minutes, MI6 replied "Tell trump he is reading it upside down".
 

How come he didn't send it to the KGB?

As I said, Luutzu, The Greens were singing the praises of Castro, who shot his own people and his political opponents.

I'm pretty sure they didn't sing his praises for those acts. Maybe for the fact that he established universal healthcare and education for his people; train doctors and nurses and send them out to Haiti and other parts of the world whenever there's disasters - natural and man-made.

I don't know Castro and his crimes, but those things are a bit better than that "indispensable nation" sending out drones, jets, aircraft carriers, special ops, the CIA on liberation and peace-keeping missions. You know, flatten cities then give kids who managed to survived it some candies, their parents a few packs of food drops to call it even, and peace.

Then at home, give two shiet about thousands of its cities and their inhabitants not having clean or safe water to drink; working overtime, literally, to put 44 million of its poorest and most vulnerable people out of any chance of healthcare... all the while giving tax cuts to the richest of the rich. W. T. F.

Good Hollywood movies though.

The Heritage Foundation? Serious? I've only ever good things about them... freedom, Liberty Bell, repeal ObamaCare so that 24 more million Americans can go die in their home (or in the gutter)... you know, be with their family instead of with doctors, nurses and all those me'cine and stuff.

Again, I haven't really read much on the life and crimes of Castro, I only know the basic outline of Cuba's history. Judging from that historical perspective... and I'm not avoiding the questions of Castro crimes against humanity or whatever, just that when you discuss that you then have to ask whether his killing is any more or less evil than the killings ordered by all other head of states.

Anyway, the hate against Cuba has a lot more to do with the fact that Castro and his bandits dare stand up against the might of the United States. Dare to be free and independent of American influence and dictate.

You know how hard the yanks have to work to kick the Spanish out of the US's backyard? How hard they have to work to take over Cuba, turn the place to their Ag corporations, Casino operators and the Mafia?

When Castro and his Godless commies overthrew the US backed president of Cuba, they also shut down gambling and end the mob money laundering business. And of course they took the land and assets from American Ag.

One of the reasons the Kennedy brothers want Castro dead was.. one, as patriotic Americans they cannot permit a band of hippies wresting independence from American imperialism. It sets very bad examples for others to follow.

And two, Daddy Kennedy has quite a connection to the mob. I heard from Gore Vidal, JFK's half-brother in law, that JFK won the race because he has money from both his father Joe and his Mafia friends. They help put him in office and won't mind a payback.

Also from Gore Vidal... they didn't very much like the idea of failed coup attempts but RFK's stance against the mob really push them over the edge.

All conspiracy theories I guess.

That was priceless I noted that the last section said that trade was only moderately important to Cuba
s economy. In fact very little.

Does this have anything to do with the fact that the USA has imposed a Trade Embargo on Cuba since 1958 ? What absolute, drivel..

United States embargo against Cuba
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
"Cuban blockade" redirects here. For the 1962 weaponry blockade, see Cuban Missile Crisis § Quarantine.
John F. Kennedy and Fidel Castro
The United States embargo against Cuba (in Cuba called el bloqueo, "the blockade") is a commercial, economic, and financial embargo imposed by the United States on Cuba.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/United_States_embargo_against_Cuba
 


I know right? Look at Cubans under the Castros... old cars, not trading with anybody.

They might be able to if you didn't sanction any other state against them. Would be able to if you didn't take their best port and turn it into your offshore prison camp.

It's just like this recent headline and story I read on Reuters about Gaza.

Goes something like: Gazans malnourished and totally screwed 10 years after Hamas took power.

They go on about the three hour power, the raw sewage, the lack of drinking water, the high youth unemployment, the poverty etc. etc. since Hamas took over.

Then... then they say Israel sanctioned and blockade Gaza. Cut its power, only permit certain food, power and goods in, blocked Gaza's only trade access through Egypt... The Palestinian Authority turn against Hamas, withheld money etc. etc.

From the headline you swear they're saying that Hamas did the killing of Gazan Palestinians.
 
You have to hand it to The Don bringing in his own Consigliori to sort out the coms team at the White House. Tony Soprano would have Scaramucci sleeping with fishes years ago. The Don promotes him to head destroyer.

Where are the adults ?

Anthony Scaramucci is vindictive, petty and unprincipled – perfect for Trump
Richard Wolffe
Bravado does not translate to any ability to fill the job of comms chief – but in the Trump White House, competency is of far less value than sycophancy

Anthony Scaramucci moves quickly, but not always coherently. In so many ways, the new White House communications director is so much like his boss: grotesquely entertaining like a drunken party before the projectile vomiting begins.

Scaramucci, as his call to the New Yorker so aptly demonstrated, is undisciplined and unprincipled, over-reaching and under-qualified, petty, vindictive, and above all, in love with his own image on TV. In short, he’s the perfectly-coiffed face of Donald Trump’s presidency.

Now there are some signs that he is not in fact the media maven so beloved by political reporters many moons ago, when he was named to his job last week. It turns out that a bravado briefing from the White House podium does not translate to any ability to fill the job of communications director.

But no matter. This is the Trump White House, where competency is of far less value than sycophancy, and virtuous staffers are worth rather less than a Ruby Tuesday special.

I'm surprised why any self respecting person would want to work for Trump. If anyone fits the bill of a corporate psychopath he does.
 
More fall out from the Groper-in-Chiefs speech to the Scouts..... ?

Girl Scouts Obtain Restraining Order Against Trump

By Andy Borowitz

July 25, 2017

WASHINGTON (The Borowitz Report)—In an extraordinary rebuke of the President of the United States, the Girl Scouts of the U.S.A. have obtained a restraining order against Donald J. Trump.
The order, which the Girls Scouts were granted on Monday night, prevents Trump from coming within three hundred feet of any gathering of the Scouts’ organization.

Tinkles ?? dear...
You are familiar with Ronald Reagan whilst Californian Gov calling in the national guard to the student protests in Berkley and those shot to death?? (thought not)
You are aware of Henry Kissinger sabotage of the 1968 Paris peace talks that led to unnecessary deaths of 20,000 thats Twenty-Thousand US service men?? (thought not). Go straight to Christopher Hitchens 'Crimes of Henry Kissinger'
When and if you ever get a grasp on 'cause and effect'; do a little background on the 'Batista regime...'

luv your work back there Pix...
