'This is the worst deal ever': Trump 'hung up' in first call with Turnbull

When will other world leaders stand up to this lunatic?

For instance : Australia hosts Pine Gap in Central Australia. It has been for decades the US' primary Satellite Communications centre which is used by NASA and the US military, CIA etc. All US military engagement communications are run through there, Iraq, Afghanistan etc.

It cannot be replicated. It is placed where it is for perfect atmospheric conditions.

Oz has just accepted a new US military base with 1000s of infantry near Darwin.

Both MI6 and German Intelligence services are expressing doubts about passing on intel because they are becoming fearful of Trump's alleged Putin links.

NATO doesn't just defend Europe, it is the front line for any attack upon the US and Germany is the base for 10,000s of US military and spy stations.

I think Trump is completely ignorant to any of this history and the same goes for those who immediately surround him.

Leaders like Theresa May have got to stop trying to cosy up to this deceptive snake.

I think Russia has the goods on Trump and because he is a narcissistic, lying asshole he would rather destroy the country than deal with Russia.
