Post-Tillerson, US seems to be heading to simultaneous nuclear confrontations with both North Korea and Iran, also simultaneous trade wars with South Korea, China, the European Union, and - if they wont sign on the NAFTA dotted line - Canada and Mexico too.

[Mr. Ected]

1. Meanwhile, 60 million Americans plug their ears and cry out in anguish:

LOCK HER UP.

BUILD OUR WALL.

Boy will they be surprised when all hell breaks loose in this country.

But somehow, someway, they'll find a way to blame it on the Dems. They've always been able to pull the wool over their flock's eyes, because the flock is predisposed to hate "libs".

6. Theyll just ignore it

And stay in their iPhone/iPad,Netflix,and Facebook bubble.

[AlexSFCA]

18. 60M use fox news and re radio as the ONLY source

of “news”.

[duforsure]

2. Because Putin and trump

Are terrorists, terrorizing the world now.

[dalton99a]

3. Draining our blood and treasury, and causing worldwide chaos

[NewJeffCT]

5. and they'll pay for it by

slashing social security and medicare and getting rid of medicaid

[dalton99a]

8. "Well, somebody has to pay for it"

"We must do SOMETHING about the DEFICIT!"

[bronxiteforever]

10. True their hypocrisy is unending!

[maryellen99]

4. Its almost as if the movie Countdown to Looking Glass is reality

[longship]

7. There are two former Republicans I listen to.

First,John Dean. Second, David Frum.

The former who has been with us for decades, the latter who has increasingly has been arguing for rationality in government.

Sic transit Gloria mundi.

[bronxiteforever]

9. John Dean is great! I agree with your assessment of Frum.

Rationality is needed in government. Or at least in a free society.

[longship]

11. Remember Dean, a regular on MS/NBC Countdown?

Keith Olbermann would regularly feature him. Dean is so fucking intelligent!

Read his Conservatives Without Conscience some day. It is one of the most intelligent political book that I've ever read. I have a signed copy.

John Dean is a real treasure.

14. Thanks!

15. There are suddenly a whole bunch of republicans who are coming from the dark side.

Never thought I would ever agree with Bill Kristol.
Also, Nicole Wallace, Steve Schmidt, David Frum and a few others whose names do not spring to mind immediately.
They all wail about what a debacle their Republican Party has become.

[barbtries]

12. trump's approach

is insane, scorched earth, stupid, dangerous. the republicans who continue to kiss his ass and don't fulfill their oaths make me every bit as sick as he does. they all suck. #RESIST

16. War is not his end game.

He won't attack either nk or iran. Putin has interests in both countries and would never stand for it. Even under obama, putin would threaten and find some way to retaliate if we took any military action against either country, let alone both.

But it does create instability in the region and weaken the us interests. That is the goal, not actual war. If nk ends up lobbing a missile, so much the better. But we won't fire.

The same is true with the trade wars. It creates instability in the markets and separates us from our allies.

If this were a normal potus, it would be bad enough. But if you believe this potus is a manchurian candidate, it becomes even worse, and on a much larger scale.

That also brings the uk nerve gas attack into focus. Why would moscow use a method that could only have come from russia? Because trumps weak response will rattle the nerves of every ally we have.

Brittain feels alone right now. They have lost the EU, and now america is standing apart. That has to be scary. Every other ally right now is likely convinced any mutual defense treaty is worthless. Even nato.

17. The period between now and November is one of increased danger.

dOtard’s corner will continue to increasingly shrink, and his erratic behavior may spill over to really unimaginable life threatening actions. Until we have a functioning check on his power we remain exposed to his evil ability to use that awesome power to prop up his corrupt and grandiose concept of himself. He has to be impeached and removed from office for the national and international good.

19. Putins is now cultivating Italy

Read article in the international NY Times and Frank Bruni wrote that now Italy is looking to Russia for international world leadership. They recognize under Twitler we are now a country with less influence. Saw this great exhibit today in A museum near the colosseo and they had an exhibit iof current day Russian artists.

I fear our country will be in major shambles under 8 years of Twitler. If he gets us into wars he will be re elected easily in 2020 like bush did in 2004.

20. Agree.Imagine an economic crisis with Cheeto as POTUS.

[Martin Eden]

21. Putie loves it when his plan comes together

The surest way to destroy an adversary is not from without, but from within.

[Thunderbeast]

22. But, But, But.....We're going to MARS!

23. What he says is true but remember-He is a MASSIVE piece of shit.
