Trump Administration Could Be Massive Train Wreck Even Before It Starts.

[TheMastersNemesis]

Watching Trump is like watching a blindfolded person walking across a minefield. Something bad is about to happen.

[bdamomma]

1. For him

or for us? the freaking man called Taiwan, and who else has he called??? I can't keep up with this stupid man.

What an idiot a very dangerous one at that.

[TheMastersNemesis]

2. Hell We Are On The God Damned Train!!!!!!!!!!!!!

And that fact is the scary part.

[Jeffersons Ghost]

3. Trump is dangerous for EVERY citizen in the USA and most other nations

[femmocrat]

4. He has invited Duterte to the WH.

Is he going out of his way to be as obnoxious as possible, to rub everyone's noses in his crassness?

[Tanuki]

9. They are quite similar and will probably bond over their "locker room talk"

and grotesque misogyny:

http://www.cnn.com/2016/04/17/asia/philippines-election-rodrigo-duterte-gang-rape-comments/

" (CNN)Philippines presidential hopeful Rodrigo Duterte has refused to apologize after his controversial comments on gang rape.
A YouTube video appeared over the weekend of Duterte joking about the 1989 rape and murder of an Australian missionary that took place in Davao City, in the country's southeast, where he is mayor, CNN Philippines reported.

"I was angry she was raped, yes that was one thing. But she was so beautiful, I think the mayor should have been first. What a waste," he said, according to a CNN Philippines translation of the comments."....

10. Sure he is

gonna show us for laughing at him at the correspondence dinner when Obama put him in his place. A classic I must say LOL

[napi21]

5. On MSNBC Rachel mentioned the Con spoke to the leader of Taiwan. Aparently as US Foreign Policy has

been not to recognize the gov't of Taiwan, and the Con might have dramatically and not even realized he did! Soooo, this is the first proof of what CAN happen when you elect a President who knows NOTHING!

[stopbush]

6. Expect the media to launch a narrative about "Trump's boldness" in calling Taiwan.

Yep, he's gonna shake up decades of gridlock.

BTW - the last time the media obsessed about a "bold" leader was W, who boldly took us into an illegal war and boldly wrecked the economy. That was after he boldly ignored the warnings that Bin Laden was determined to attack the US.

[napi21]

8. Well, FWIW, Rachen didn't talk about his boldness. She talked about his lack of knowledge

and how catastrophic, horrible things could happen without him even knowing what he did.

[NewJeffCT]

17. yes, today was pissing off China

home of 1.3 billion people and the #2 economy in the world. Yesterday was India, home of 1.2 billion people and a rising economy. So, in two days, he's pissed off 35% of the world's population.

What happens when it moves beyond pissing them off? India & Pakistan is potentially a nuclear situation.

[Hortensis]

7. Everyone on the planet except those who voted

for him know he's mentally dysfunctional. When possible he'll get something of an idiot pass. Like his faux pas in talking with Taiwan--regardless of whatever stance China takes, how alarmed and offended can they really be?

Leaders will try to take advantage, of course, but I imagine a lot of them will also be joining us in cleaning up after our un-house-trained leader. Whatever works for the moment.

[montana_hazeleyes]

18. I believe some of his voters do know he's mentally dysfunctional,

but they don't care. He 's like the leader of their cult. He represents what they believe and want and they will follow and defend him no matter what.

[Hortensis]

19. Absolutely. Partisanship run amok.

I am now absolutely sure most of these people would vote for Adolf Hitler, insisting that all information about him was scurrilous lies and it was really the Democrats who were kidnapping and murdering.

[montana_hazeleyes]

20. It's such a horrible truth Hortensis,

but I think the same thing.

[Bernardo de La Paz]

11. Trump has just upset China by calling Taiwan

He claims he was called.

It seems that his minions arranged the call, so effectively he made the call.

[mobeau69]

13. It really doesn't matter who called who.

If they called, rump shouldn't have taken the call. Of course he's not consulted with the State Department yet. There a bunch of no-it-all elites. rump is in way over his fucking orange head. I just wanted to live to see our first woman president but I guess now I may live to see nuclear war instead. Whiskey, bartender.

[TygrBright]

12. "Could be?" You are too generous. n/t

[Dorian Gray]

14. There were like 4 BBC push notices

i received today that made me cringe because of his idiocy.

Taiwan.

Ugh.

Next thing you know, he'll swing his private jet around to pick Dennis Rodman up to go play golf in N. korea with those great men who do fabulous things there.

[lonestarnot]

15. LOL Ya think?

[They_Live]

16. Already is

and boy, am I depressed.

[leftyladyfrommo]

21. I don't think any world leaders take him seriously .

He is just a huge joke.

He will get out maneuvered at every turn.
