Need some devious thinking here. It drives me nuts.

Same way we always seem to underestimate power-hungry jerks like Putin. Hell, like trump.

“…oh that’s not gonna happen…”

“….oh he wouldn’t…”

Seriously???? Still giving the bad guys the benefit of the doubt? Still? Who’s really advising you? Who are you getting your ideas from? Who’s still blowing softly in your ear so you’re not prepared? How gullible ARE you? You haven’t seen enough by now? That’s what I’d like to ask all our leaders.

ESPECIALLY our Dems - who always seem to want to arm themselves with feather dusters when they “prepare” to go into battle.
