Easy to do when you are as big a jibberer as Trump.
Just heard excerpts the Pom PMI's speech to the republican conference. Pretty nauseating stuff....special relationship...snort snort...we defeated the Hun, twice..snort drool..we created the UN and IMF...drool, drool... Together we did smite communism....oh Donnie....now, now, now......so special.
Hmmmm ...... I note that various boffins are concerned in light of some of the presidential campaign announcements now that DT is in a position to act on them.
One bomb the seppos dropped on Japan was called "Little Boy". Wonder if there will be a Presidential Decree requiring all nukes to be named "Small Hands".
Lots on uncertainty about people born in the 7 black list nations and their ability to get into or stay in the US, despite having left their home country years ago. One example is Australian Sudanese-born NBA player Thom Maker; the other is the Iranian director of one of the films nominated for an Academy Award.

Oh, and Sir Mo Farah.
I am a British citizen who has lived in America for the past six years - working hard, contributing to society, paying my taxes and bringing up our four children in the place they now call home. Now, me and many others like me are being told that we may not be welcome. It's deeply troubling that I will have to tell my children that Daddy might not be able to come home - to explain why the President has introduced a policy that comes from a place of ignorance and prejudice.
The Pentagon on Sunday confirmed the death of a U.S. service member in a raid in Yemen targeting al-Qaeda, marking the first American combat death under the administration of U.S. President Donald Trump.
The gunbattle in the rural Yakla district of al-Bayda province killed a senior leader in Yemen's al-Qaeda branch, Abdulraoof al-Dhahab, along with other militants, al-Qaeda said.
"She was hit with a bullet in her neck and suffered for two hours," Nasser al- Awlaki told Reuters. "Why kill children? This is the new (US) administration - it's very sad, a big crime,"
The US military said in a statement that the raid netted "information that will likely provide insight into the planning of future terror plots".
The American elite forces did not seize any militants or take any prisoners offsite, said a US military official who spoke on condition of anonymity.
The three commandos who were injured were hurt when a military aircraft experienced a hard landing and was "intentionally destroyed in place," the Pentagon said.
"The operation began at dawn when a drone bombed the home of Abdulraoof al- Dhahab and then helicopters flew up and unloaded paratroopers at his house and killed everyone inside," said one resident, who spoke on condition of anonymity.
"Next, the gunmen opened fire at the US soldiers who left the area, and the helicopters bombed the gunmen and a number of homes and led to a large number of casualties."
In a message on its official Telegram messaging account, al Qaeda mourned al- Dhahab as a "holy warrior" and other slain militants, without specifying how many of its fighters were killed.
"Trump ban is boon for ISIS recruitment, former jihadists and experts say.
"It can play into their propaganda, to make it clear for anyone who could be in doubt, that it's a war on Islam and all Muslims," Abdullah told CNN over a messaging service. The names of the now-defected foreign fighters in this story have been changed to protect their identities."
"Last week, Trump has signed an executive order asking his national security team to prepare an action plan within 30 days to defeat ISIS.
US President Donald Trump is taking decisive steps to "defeat and destroy" ISIS, the White House said on Tuesday, terming the destruction of the dreaded terror group's capabilities a "humanitarian imperative". "The United States must take decisive action, and the President is taking the necessary steps," the White House Press Secretary Sean Spicer told reporters at his daily news conference."
Smells like WWIII to me.
He's just nommed the next supreme. Another "black letter" judge who likes to use the "original intent" of the framers. So another mind reader who should recuse himself from any decision requiring constitutional interpretation.
Normally a political leader is castigated for not fulfilling their campaign promises.
Here we have the opposite.
this made my day ..
Hard to know if the deal is a good one or bad one because we don't actually know what the deal is.
Aren't we getting some of the US's version of Nauru in return?
