HE GAVE AMERICA AWAY

Apply NamedĀ ā€œTheĀ FakeĀ Presidentā€Ā ā€” To Be Removed With His Accomplices…

We have lost our protection by those who know best.Ā  Ā EDITOR:Ā Ā T-RUMPSĀ imaginary advisors, conspirators,Ā weirdos, Ā incompetents, ass-kissers, snake oil salesmen, flatulence producers and imaginary generals, all of those fake friends he inventsĀ with no names in his twisted imagination and Mark IV Ā Bullsh*t Ā BrainĀ rotating from Crainial-Rectal Dyslexia (Ā Sh*t for Brains Syndrome) have advised him on a myriad of fake subjects making them worse.

And as far as I know his disdain for the military, T-RUMPĀ is Ā sick, no real person many of our hero’s whom I haveĀ served with wants anything to do with thisĀ imbecile liar and fraud. Ā Thats whyĀ there are never any names,Ā T-RUMP invents people,Ā no-one believe him, they are his toy soldiers of the mind, invention generals of his imagination from the land of Bizarro, who was Superman’s enemy…inĀ Marvel Comics…


And I ask why are we leaving Germany, another Putin gift.


How A Draft Dodging Coward And Liar Can Change A World Forever… 
This past week, on US President Donald Trump’s watchĀ RussiaĀ andĀ ChinaĀ have effectively re-aligned the coming world order. They didn't do it together, but both took advantage of uncertainty and unpredictability that Trump has helped create.

It’s far from clear that the next US President will be able to roll back the consequences of this week, which leave both PresidentsĀ Vladimir PutinĀ in Moscow andĀ Xi JinpingĀ in Beijing more decisively in control of their own countries and more able to act assertively. Ā In other words,Ā TrumpĀ has made an indelible mark on the world -- and it may not be for the good.

It is no coincidence that Putin and Xi have cemented their grip on cherished goals, as the clock runs down on Trump’s first, and hopefully only, term in office. Ā Four more years will destroy the American dream.

This past week, in a referendum on constitutional revisions so predictable that copies were on sale before the vote, Putin has effectively been made President for life.Ā 

As Xi hasĀ done last year and moved equally ruthlessly, taking control of Hong Kong through a new national security law, while telling US allies Canada, Australia and the UK to keep out of China’s internal affairs.

Both seem to be of the view the US has neither the will nor the consistency to put up resistance. Indeed, Trump's White House gave evidence of exactly that this week, floundering for a coherent response to allegations Russia paid the Taliban to kill US forces in Afghanistan. The Russian Embassy in Washington and the Taliban have both denied the claims.

Russia Is His Bank  — Ā As David Ignatius wrote in The Washington Post PutinĀ ā€œĀ is in the payback business. He believes the United States destroyed his former country, the Soviet Union. He likes the United States to feel pain." He now has had plenty of years for more payback.

Former senior US officials with a very different take. They thoughtĀ T-RUMPĀ ā€œĀ delusionalā€Ā about his ability to bend other leaders to his agenda, believing he couldĀ ā€œĀ either charm, jawbone or bully almost any foreign leader into capitulating to his will." Ā Words and thoughts, no deeds from a very sick man.

Just so you know…Mr. Putin and the Russian National Bank VRB guaranteed T-RUMPS loans for Golf Courses and Hotels from theĀ DeutscherĀ Bank whenĀ NOĀ US banks would factor him…due to theĀ bankruptciesĀ he caused and that he laughed at them after sixĀ bankruptciesĀ and 3500 lawsuits. Ā 

Now you know theĀ Russian connection, so he paid Putin with Syria, Crimea, Black Sea Ports for the Russian Navy, Ā Ignored attacks on the Ukraine, and laundered money in theĀ T-RUMP towers for the .Ā Oligarchs who are Putin friends. Ā 

T-RUMP admires Putin, poison, power andĀ perpetude, Ā and all because Putin might be the richest man in the worldĀ becauseĀ of what he hasĀ stolen from the Russian peopleĀ andĀ theirĀ subserviantĀ countries under the heel of the USSR confederation. All in Swiss banks and untouchable. Ā Thats where the NAZI’s hid their cash for a rainy day. Ā It rained bombs…instead. Ā Im sure the Russian people would like the billions for food and housing…

VRBĀ is a joint venture between the two leading banks in Vietnam andĀ Russia, Bank for Investment and Development of Vietnam (BIDV), accounts for 50% and Bank for Foreign Trade ofĀ RussiaĀ (VTB) with 50% of chartered capital.

This is the collusion and the main reason T-RUMP befriends Putin so willingly. Ā  Sort of a scumbag to Scumbag love affair. In return Putin can launder any money he wishes that he robbed from the Soviet allies when Russia was a confederation. Ā Most of theĀ T-RUMP tower in NY is owned by the Russians who live there, and serve as an escape if they have to leave Russia due to assassination, killing, bombs or anything else Putin dreams up. Ā VRB is a partnership with Vietnam being most of their weaponry is furnished by them and China.

Again,Ā PutinĀ ā€œĀ justĀ outplays" him, said a high-level administration official -- comparing the Russian leader to a chess grandmaster and Trump to an occasional player of checkers. While Putin "destabilizes the West," said this source, the President of the United States "sits there and thinks he can build himself up enough as a businessman and tough guy that Putin will respect him." (At times, the Putin-Trump conversations sounded like "two guys in a steam bath," a source added.)Ā 

In separate interviews, two high-level administration officials familiar with most of theĀ T-RUMPĀ Putin calls said the President naively elevated Russia — a second-rate totalitarian state with less than 4% of the world's GDP -- and its authoritarian leader almost to parity with the United States and its President by undermining the tougher, more realistic view of Russia expressed by the US Congress, American intelligence agencies and the long-standing post-war policy consensus of the US and its European allies.

" Trump gives away the advantage that was hard won in the Cold War," said one of the officials -- in part by "giving Putin and Russia a legitimacy they never had," the official said. "He's given Russia a lifeline -- because there is no doubt that they're a declining power ... He’s playing with something he doesn’t understand and he's giving them power that they would use aggressively." Ā  Ā Eg. Syria, potentially Ukraine, Crimea, Black Sea ports etc…done deal

Both officials cited Trump's decision to pull US troops out of Syria -- a move that benefited Turkey as well as Russia -- as perhaps the most grievous example.Ā ā€œHe gave away the store,"Ā one of them said.Ā 

BigĀ frickin hero and tough with women… wonder how he treated those Russian Hookers in the Golden Shower… it’s all coming out now… in the Senate Congressional Memoir of 1000Ā pages ofĀ CollusionĀ and lying to Congress under oath. And three books soon to be brought out before theĀ election.Ā 

He’s toughest in the phone calls with those he looks at as weaklings and weakest with the ones he ought to be tough with.ā€ Just like a third grade bully and coward that he is…Thats all he knows, after the thirdĀ grade Dads money took over… Fred just bought the schools with bribes he sent Donald too. Ā Thats how scumbags teach their kids…


Russian Fake News  —  Simple, no one will lend him money in New York … so he sells all his condos to Russians and uses their ( now laundered) money to support his buildings… The cash is handled through Deutscher bank and co-signed or backed by the Russian VDB bank… thats why Putin is such a good fiend… friend… Putin owns Donald…


T-Rump Allows Russia  — Ā Trump’s " Fawning over authoritarian strongmen, his ignorance of history and lack of preparation" jeopardized US national security. Ā Whether it's Putin's payback or Xi's decision to violate and chip away at the Hong Kong agreement signed with the UK in 1984, both leaders appear to see opportunities.

Go back three years. Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov dropped into the Oval Office the day after Trump fired James Comey as FBI director. Comey was overseeing the investigation into allegations of Russian election meddling. An official Russian photographer caught the bonhomie, as Trump told his visitors: "I just fired the head of the FBI. He was crazy, a real nut job."

Two months later, Trump met Putin -- alone -- on the margins of the G20 summit. The White House trumpeted the encounter as a success, highlighting a new ceasefire deal in Syria. The Russians cynically used the deal to freeze the conflict, allowing the Assad regime backed by Russia to pick off rebel-held areas one-by-one.

Trump could have protested, ripped up the deal, forged a new US policy on Syria that would have crimped Russia's growing influence in the Middle East. Instead he bought the lie. Ā It would be a recurring theme. Trump's former national security adviser John Bolton recalls in his new book "The Room Where It Happened" Trump's 2018 meeting with Putin in Helsinki, Finland.

"Putin had to be laughing uproariously at what he had gotten away with," writes Bolton, after Trump accepted Putin's assurances there had been no Russian interference in the 2016 US campaign.

So fast forward to this year as Putin,Ā in power for 20 years, needed a constitutional fix to hold on for longer. He appears to calculate that despite tightened US sanctions over his invasion of Ukraine, and the poisoning of exiled former agent Sergei Skripal in the UK,Ā T-RUMPĀ won't push back for what he does at home. Ā Ā He was right. He is now effectively President for life, hoping to emulate Soviet leaders by stepping down only into his grave.


Russian Collusion  — The Connection  — A Traitor and Liar — T-RUMP GUILTY

Yesterday The Long-Awaited Senate Report Finally Was Produced And Distributed, It was By-Partisan, Critical And Sensitive Information Was Shared, Ā And Exchanged With Russian Operatives, Ā Via His ā€œ Friendsā€ Ā And T-Rump Lied To Congress And Knew All About It… Ā He Should Be Brought Under Charges And Properly Dealt With… 

Four years ofĀ turmoilĀ starting every day with lies, four years of hatred, four years of the destruction of the Democratic core, four years of the destruction of the major protection we enjoyed, four years of loses of some of the most talented people doing the right thing but not theĀ T-RUMP thing.

Talent, compassion and concern for fellow Americans and replaced by cronyism, family, scumbags, retards andĀ jerk-offsĀ totalĀ incompetent in the roles they were given, all they required was cash.

He has embarrassed,Ā shownĀ elitism and hate for our allies who gave their blood in our causes. He has ruined treaties, Ā  destroyed our leadership in the world and allowed the enemies of out country, Russia and China to move forward.

In the world leader role only the enemies if the United States have anything to do with him. Ā Our electoral system hacked by false information on social media, and ruined by massiveĀ losses to Russian and Chinese intelligence. Ā 

Our options were clear, evidence was in and we ignored them: Ā  We as a people haveĀ failed, believing in, falsehoods due to lies, promises, excuses, untrue blame games, naiveness, greed,Ā revenge, stupidity, a lack of reasoning, laziness, ignorance andĀ religion intervention, Russian intervention and a superb con man whom we knew all about and ignored. Ā Almost fourĀ years of lies and distortions and we have anĀ extremely sick America getting worse not better… by the day.


China will not fall underĀ T-RUMP… and The Chinese WillĀ Reign Ā 

Oh, so you know those tariffs are not paid by the Chinese, the Wall is not being paid by the Mexicans and thats costing you a personal minimum of Ā $600-800 a year more. And Ā go price some vegetables andĀ necessities for your home… TheĀ fees are passed on in the higher prices of the goods, how stupid can you be to not understand that simple explanation and it proves the America voter who believesĀ T-RUMP is a dumbass and believes all the lies you were told and you just stand there and do nothing. Ā 

Lemmings live like that… I’m frank, crude and harsh, I have had enough of him, you deserve crap, Ā you voted for it…Xi’s experience withĀ T-RUMPĀ has been different. Tangled in a trade war, he has had to calculate Trump’s real intent: on money, human rights issues, such as the Uyghurs or Hong Kong, and simply stopping the rise of the world's next superpower. Ā A diplomat, who had spent many years in Europe, told me in very precise terms thatĀ T-RUMPĀ was intentionally preventing China taking its rightful place in the world as a high-tech advanced economy.


I can be sure of what he’d say now as the Trump administration tries to persuade allies not to allow Huawei's 5G technology into their digital bloodstream. Ā But those allies are less willing to say no, partly because of China’s commercial power but also because their relationships with the US have frayed.

Even the Umglicks, noted fourth world underdeveloped, not so bright till they found fire… had anĀ expression. Ā ā€œ He who first burns a bridge across a deep ravine should not try to cross that bridge ā€
ā€œ Moreover burnt timbers may lack strength
ā€¦ā€ they were very observant and mentioned this at the funerals of those they toasted who were hauled out of the ravine…

Only this week German Chancellor Angela Merkel, who Bernstein’s sources say was berated byĀ T-RUMPĀ in phone calls, appeared to reject Trump’s China tactics, saying, Ā ā€œĀ Only together can the 27 EU member countries have enough weight to achieve ambitious deals with China." Ā Ā While Trump has been applauded for confronting China on its trade policies, commercial espionage and intellectual property theft, his tactics face heavy criticism.Ā 

"Now the challenge for the president and his successors is to persuade Beijing, through enhanced US power projection, more able alliances, and adroit diplomacy, that the United States will grow ever stronger in Asia and, with its allies and friends, will robustly confront destabilizing Chinese actions."

All of this will have been in Xi's calculations about Trump, whether he is an existential threat to China's rise to be the world's superpower, or a prelude to a smarter adversary with the same goal.

Xi appears to have hedged toward the latter, choosing to act now against Hong Kong’s determined pro-democracy movement, and pushing the narrative that the West is behind it, before it became a real thorn in his side. Ā Hong Kong's new National Security Law, promulgated in Beijing this week and immediately enforced on the territory's streets, is a game changer. According to the UK, it breaks the 1984 joint Sino-British declaration of one country-two systems.



T-Rump Gets Skunked  — Ā Viva La Mexico ForĀ Having Cojones,

Guts and Pride for Standing Up To Him and His Lies…

šŸ‘ŗĀ Ā T-RUMP SAID: Ā The border wall is almost finished, but that is untrue and his second biggest lIe. Ā The WallĀ is now at a cost of 21Ā billion dollars,Ā and Is out of funding as the courts turned downĀ T-RUMP stealing from the Military Fund for our troops. Ā 
Mexico said, Ā ā€œ NO WAY JOSE, YOUR WALL, YOU PAY FOR ITā€ Ā Ā Money was secured by a small amount in Congress andĀ theĀ rest stolen fromĀ Education,Ā Housing, Ā plus seventeen other departments, many we do not know about, twelve programs so far

According to experts and analyses, the actual cost to construct a wall along the remaining 1,300 miles (2,100 km) of the border could be as high asĀ $20 millionĀ per mile ($12.5 million/km), with a total cost of up toĀ $45 billion, with the cost of private land acquisitions and fence maintenance.Ā 

The Wall That Mexico will Not Pay For -Ā T-RUMPs Biggest financial lie we think…… Bullsh*tā€. Ā  TheĀ price of the wall will be 21 billion dollars plus whatever the rest is, possibly double. Ā  WhoeverĀ that Judge was, he should be commended…

North Korea — No More Love Letters From Kim Jung UnĀ 

Lots Of Promises, Love Letters Lots Of Photo-Ops, And Grand Standing Images Regardless It Turned Into A Magnum Sized Expensive Bullsh*T Session And No Treaty… Kim Jung Un Beat Three Presidents, T-Rump Was A Lapdog Layover Loser… And Kim Laughs At Him…

North Korea hasĀ blown up -- as in, completely destroyed -- an office used for talksĀ between itself and South Korea. If ever there were a sign that the relationship between the adversaries is deteriorating, this is it. The building has been closed for months due to theĀ COVID-19, but it was obviously a symbol of goodwill between the nations.Ā 

North Korea says it decided to raze the office as yet another retaliatory measure against South Korea afterĀ defectors used balloons to send anti-North Korean leafletsĀ of the DMZ.Ā 

The country recently announced it is cutting all ties with South Korea over the incident and will remilitarize parts of the Korean border that have been dormant for years. It's illegal -- and extremely risky -- for average North Koreans to consume literature or entertainment that's not approved by the government. Experts also suspect North Korea’s recent actions may be its attempt to gin up a crisis.

Unpredictability becomes an impediment to success when it interferes with orderly process. ā€œSay you’re going to have an engagement with North Korea,ā€ a general who served under multiple presidents told me. ā€œAt some point you should have developed a strategy that says,Ā Here’s what we want the outcome to be. And then somebody is developing talking points. Those talking points are shared with the military, with the State Department, with the ambassador. Whatever the issue might be, before the president ever saysĀ anything, everybody should know what the talking points are going to be.ā€ To avoid confusion and a sense of aimlessness, ā€œeverybody should have at least a general understanding of what the strategy is and what direction we’re heading in.ā€

ā€œIf the president says ā€˜Fire and brimstone’ and then two weeks later says ā€˜This is my best friend,’ that’s not necessarily bad—but it’s bad if the rest of the relevant people in the government responsible for executing the strategy aren’t aware that that’s the strategy,ā€ the general said. Having a process to figure out the sequences of steps is essential. ā€œThe process tells the president what he should say.Ā 

When I was working with Obama and Bush,ā€ he continued, ā€œbefore we took action, we would understand what that action was going to be, we’d have done a Q&A on how we think the international community is going to respond to that action, and we would have discussed how we’d deal with that response.ā€

To operate outside of an organized process, as Trump tends to, is to reel from crisis to rapprochement to crisis, generating little more than noise. This haphazard approach could lead somewhere good—but it could just as easily start a very big fire.

If the president eschews the process, this general told me, then when a challenging national-security issue arises, he won’t have information at hand about what the cascading effects of pursuing different options might be. ā€œHe’s kind of shooting blind.ā€ Military commanders find that disconcerting.

ā€œThe process is not a panacea—Bush and Obama sometimes made bad decisions even with all the options in front of them—but it does help.ā€



Ā IRAN

As the US standoff with Iran hurtles forward, it’s revealing some truths about us power, influence, and alliances. among them, is thatĀ AmericaĀ can no longer ensure the security of gulf oil shipping on its own, and thanks to domestic us oil production, it lacks the incentive to assume such a demonstrative Ā responsibility… Ā TheĀ standoff is not only a test of American power, or of T-Rump’s personal handling of a crisis situation, it’s testingĀ T-RUMPS Ā entire foreign-policy doctrine of unilateralism… 

After T-Rump Ā has alienated US allies, he finds himself in a confrontation where he might actually need them, many argue, he’s on his own.

BRITAINĀ 

Trump’s conversations with May, theĀ UK Prime MinisterĀ from 2016 to 2019, were described as "humiliating and bullying," with Trump attacking her as "a fool" and spineless in her approach to Brexit, NATO and immigration matters.Ā ā€œHe'd get agitated about something with Theresa May, then he'd get nasty with her on the phone call," One source said.Ā ā€œ It’s the same interaction in every setting — COVID-19Ā or Brexit — with just no filter applied. Ā She is retired and had enough of him, expressing her indignation at his tact. Ā 


GERMANYĀ 

Ā But his most vicious attacks, said the sources, were aimed at women heads of state. In conversations with both May and Merkel, the President demeaned and denigrated them in diatribes described asĀ ā€œ near-sadisticā€Ā by one of the sources and confirmed by others. Ā  Ā ā€œSome of the things he said to Angela Merkel are just unbelievable: he called herĀ ā€˜stupid,' and accused her of being in the pocket of the Russians.
