Trump's Middle Eastern tour

But let it hang the rest of the time as well as with different tops?

That one has straps down her arm.
Whether or not it was intentional she's on vacation... they can go to a nudist beach for all I care.

While some are desperately trying to spin this trip as some sort of flop even CNN Politics editor-at-large Chris Cillizza has admitted that "Donald Trump's foreign trip is going smoothly" being "defined thus far by its smoothness and general lack of controversy," and saying it's "been the best six days of his presidency in quite some time."

Yes, he seemed to go over well in the medieval royal court of the Saudis, with its abysmal human rights record and sponsorship of violent Wahhabism worldwide. But his crass, bullying approach at NATO left a lot to be desired.

In case the conservatives here in their fake-news bubbles haven't seen this-week's stories:
Trump reportedly told EU officials Germany is 'bad, very bad'
Watch President Trump push a prime minister aside
Trump insults allies in a speech to NATO
Trump’s behavior at NATO is a national embarrassment

Those can be added to the general background of these older stories:
Trump refused to shake Angela Merkel's hand
Trump calls NATO 'obselete'
Trump tried 11 times to get Merkel to agree to a trade agreement between the US and Germany and she had to tell him 11 times that only the EU as a whole can make trade agreements
Donald Trump 'printed out fake £300bn Nato invoice and handed it to Angela Merkel' (hopefully she brought one of those oversized fake TV checks to NATO to pay him with!)

;_; Trump insulted euroweasel losers crying because Trump doesn't want to keep paying for their own defense ;_;

This one is rather funny: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Iimj0j4NYME

No need to put too much into it, but it is a good laugh.

Could not help myself. I had to quote this:

"Thomas Wright, the director of the Centre on United States and Europe and the Brookings Institution, described the Nato leg of Trump’s European tour as “a policy failure of epic proportions” that “increases the risk that Putin will test him in the years ahead.”"

Yup, asking the various European leaders to quit shirking and be responsible for paying their promised share for the upkeep of NATO was absolutely horrendous

It seems that Putin is getting what he paid for re NATO. Next comes the lifting of sanctions against Russia. .

My favorite part in that article is when they invoked the infamous "body language experts" to try and determine if Trump's trip was a success or not.



From what it looks like, certain members of NATO are pissed that the President asked them to start carrying their own weight instead of expecting the US to do all the heavy-lifting. If that's a "policy failure of epic proportions" then I look forward to more "policy failures" in the future.
