Now, if Bill would own the fact that he fucked up by voting for this decrepit a-hole… this would be a fairly good post.
But he never will admit his mistakes. Nor will Mirengoff, Hinderaker or the others. Electing a know sociopath — and, for a SECOND TIME! — was more than a mistake. It was completely complicit malfeasance, by those who knew better, at the ballot box. Admit it you chumps. You’ve screwed us — and yourselves, too. Here’s the part that proves Bill and Paul ought to beg forgiveness:
…Trump’s much-hyped (especially by him) sharpness as a negotiator is ironically (or perhaps comically, if the circumstances weren’t so dire) exposed precisely by his announcing his desire for a deal. It’s obvious to a middle school kid that the best way to get any kind of deal worth having is by disclaiming, not embracing, the idea that you want one, and instead letting it be known, vividly and by your acts, that troubling yourself with negotiating is not much more than an annoyance: You have the strength and will to take what you want anyway, and you’re inclined to use it right quick if the other side doesn’t get its mind right.
In the Iran context, that would mean, say, sinking a few of their military ships, bombing a few of their oil fields, and assassinating a few more of their generals — then wait for them to seek talks.
Trump cannot help knowing this. But from the almost daily vacillation we’ve seen so far, you’d never know it. And much, much worse, the mullahs won’t know it either [I think he means the mullahs have Trump figured out. He’s a transparently stupid human.]….
Yes — this is churlishly malign moron you all put in charge of OUR nukes, as well as… theirs.
You people should beg the people of our nation… for forgiveness. Damn,
