lol CR will be along in a mo to tell us how offended he is
Trumps disrespect for the CIA is one of his better qualities in my opinion, I consider the CIA half think-tank, half terrorist organization. We should dwell more on the bad and fucked-up things he's into.
It would be different in America. For starters, a lot of the areas that voted Trump are in "dry" counties - no pubs, no bars, yuppie or otherwise.Every pub has a Trump, but now we look at them wondering, 'fuckinell'could she/he.........
I love the preemptive assumption of fake news, so obediently Trump trained already.

My bold, no pause for laughs at the end there, not many laughs at all.
Is he talking in general or specifically? The broad implication is there is no victory without spoils for Trump. More subtly Trump thinks depriving IS of oil revenues would eradicate it as he promises too. IS finally necessitates the appropriation the prophet Trump wisely saw as an extractive economic opportunity earlier. The US security establishment, part of which he is addressing, was/is too stupid to see this. He's wrong of course, IS revenues aren't mainly from Iraqi oil, but from taxation. At the very least its an example of very poor and confused messaging.
The IRGC will regurgitate that on their social media in Arabic. They don't even have to frig with it. That'll filter through to their 60K+ guys on the ground if they aren't already cursing the Ali Baba Trump on Youtube. These guys in any case are convinced the US backs IS and came to steal their oil. Most Iraqis are unfortunately. They don't need the Iranians to tell them. It's just confirmation when Trump jokes about having a second crack at it. US troop numbers have been escalating in Iraq recently. That's a sensitive topic in Baghdad politics. Threats against them by Shia militia leaders are common. If some IRGC asset sticks an EFP on US SF Humvee up Mosul way as a hands off message to the freshly incarnated orange Great Satan it really won't seem so funny.
Thing is, Trump isn't complaining about their terrorist exploits abroad. If he was, he might have garnered a bit more respect. He's pissed at them for casting doubt on his legitimacy.
Because that doesn't scream "North Korea" at allOn Monday, the paperwork was filed with the federal government declaring officially that Jan. 20, 2017 — the day of Trump's inauguration — would officially be known as the “National Day of Patriotic Devotion.”
What does that even mean?!“Now, therefore, I, Donald J. Trump, president of the United States of America, by virtue of the authority vested in me by the Constitution and the laws of the United States, do hereby proclaim Jan. 20, 2017, as National Day of Patriotic Devotion, in order to strengthen our bonds to each other and to our country — and to renew the duties of government to the people,” the order says.
“Our Constitution is written on parchment, but it lives in the hearts of the American people,” the order continues. “There is no freedom where the people do not believe in it; no law where the people do not follow it; and no peace where the people do not pray for it.”

Eh? Got the US and SP wits the rest?
Donald's been busy today - signing $1.8m worth of arms deals to Kuwait, Saudia Arabia, Kenya and the UK, bless him.
Reminds me of Saparmurat Niyazov...Jeeeeesus christ, he's like a one-man batshit machine.

Also, what to British eyes and ears seems like off-putting cockieness, loudness and swagger is seen and heard by many Americans as a sign of confidence and good leadership.

I'm waiting for the announcement of the giant golden statue of Trumpmenbashi on the mall in DC. One that will shower the adulatory crowds (attendance obligatory) with his refreshing benevolence. Like the sweetest rain.
Trillions of $ available in federal lands, all now available to our friends who made my presidency possible.
Told ya, some sort of hostage, poor thing.
Too much hair and not enough man boobs to be the 'real thing'looks like the son of man is about to bend trump over the desk
EVERYTHING he says is about promoting his legitimacy - lying about numbers at his inauguration, dissing anything that looks like criticism, complaining about unflattering photos, the lot.
I think this is partly due to his colossal ego. Throughout his incredibly privileged life, he's had people constantly saying "yes" to him, so when that doesn't happen, he's furious.
I think his tweets and tantrums provide a convenient focus for outrage, so few folks notice the other things he and the GOP are doing just under the radar - the arms deals, for example.
And this
LAWMAKERS IN EIGHT STATES HAVE PROPOSED LAWS CRIMINALIZING PEACEFUL PROTEST
Told ya, some sort of hostage, poor thing.
He didn't pull anything though. This is who he is. He is the most important Agent Orange in the world. He needed to walk up those steps and it mattered not if she was beside him. She isn't important in that regard.If he's confident enough to pull this shit publicly, well . . .
