  • Trump's former National Security Advisor .. 'he's a laughing fool'

    From risky biz@21:1/5 to All on Tue May 16 12:41:04 2023
    'Former President Donald Trump has long touted what he says are strong relationships with high profile leaders on the world stage, but they actually think he’s a ‘laughing fool, according to John Bolton, Trump’s former national security adviser.

    During the CNN town hall last week, Trump said he could end Russia’s war in Ukraine in one day if he wins reelection to the White House. The war never would have happened, Trump said, if he won a second term in 2020. That’s hard to believe on both
    counts, Bolton said.

    “I have been in those rooms with him when he met with those leaders, I believe they think he’s a laughing fool. And the idea that somehow his presence in office would have deterred Putin is flatly wrong,” he said on CNN Tuesday morning, naming the
    Russian, Chinese and North Korean leaders in particular.

    Trump also doesn’t “think in terms of winning and losing” when it comes to the war, the former president told host Kaitlan Collins during the town hall.

    That, combined with his insistence that he could negotiate with Putin to end the war in a day, “shows he’s utterly out of touch what the war is all about and what the implications of Russia’s aggression against Ukraine are all around the world,”
    Bolton said.' https://www.politico.com/news/2023/05/16/donald-trump-fool-world-leaders-00097103

    How Nixon of him. One of the good things LBJ did for our country was not reveal to us, and the world, that Nixon committed treason when he told the North Vietnamese leader, “Don’t sign a truce until after the election. I’ll give you a better deal.


    Typical Republican. “Who cares if more troops die, I get elected and get to ‘save the day.’

    Same for Bush 2. “Let’s preventively attack an innocent nation, kill 90+ thousand old men, women and children and make millions for Halliburton. We shouldn’t lose too many American soldiers.”

    Same for Gulf of Tonkin. “Let’s fake a war, lose 50,000 American troops, and make millions for our Congressional Military Industrial Complex.

    Write your own story about the Middle East Wars…

    But he gets these fools to keep voting against their – and their families - best interests by voting Republican.
