OK, What the fuck?!?!?
One
of the problems with keeping up with the bullshit espoused and acted upon by Trump
and his sniveling, spineless sycophants is just how much of it there is to keep
up with.
Thursday
was a clusterfuck explosion of this bullshit on full view for the world to see.
Let’s
start with the whiny man-baby, Li’l Donnie Trump. He arrived in the United
Kingdom after spending time in Brussells pissing all over NATO.
OK,
before we get to the UK, let me vent about NATO.
Once
Trump locks onto something, he sticks with. Way back in the more innocent days
of Trump’s nascent candidacy for President (Trump as President? What a joke!
Ha! Ha! Ha! Ha! Ha! Ha! Ha! ---SHUT THE FUCK UP! IT’S NOT FUNNY, OK?!)
Where
was I? Sorry….
Way
back in the more innocent days of Trump’s nascent candidacy for President, Li’l
Donnie made NATO the subject of attack, complaining about the lack of
commiserate financial support from member nations towards NATO compared to that
of the United States.
The
thing is that since 2014, the member nations have been bolstering their
contributions to NATO as per an agreement that contributions should be 2% of a
nation’s GDP (Gross Domestic Product) by 2024. The members of NATO are paying
more into NATO than they were before and will continue to do so to meet the 2024 target.
By
the time Trump began running for President in 2015, his information on NATO
contributions was at least a year out of date. A solution was agreed upon and
put into practice to resolve disparities of NATO financial support a year
before Trump started bitching about it on the campaign trail.
Two
years into this term of office, he’s still bitching about it.
During
the NATO conference, there was a meeting, I think, about the situation in
Crimea. Trump shows up for the meeting 30 minutes late and begins bitching at
the attendees about why NATO members are not contributing their fair share to
the budget. Li’l Donnie boorishly shows
up late and changes the subject to what he wants to talk about and it’s a subject
that has already being addressed since 2014.
Seriously,
what the fuck?!?!?
Later
when he leaves Brussells, Trump makes a statement that NATO members have agreed
to put more money into NATO. Always remember Trump doesn’t do or say shit
unless it’s directed to his base. The message was “Look at me! I was the tough
guy who made NATO pony up more dough.”
French
President Macron later issued his own statement afterwards which I will
summarize as follows: “Bullshit.”
Basically,
Macron said no new arrangement or deal was put into place in any meeting with
Trump, that NATO members are committed to reaching the financial targets set
back in 2014 and have been working towards ever since.
Trump’s
trying to take credit for bullying NATO into doing what it was already doing.
And
speaking of “bullying”, what is this shit that Trump is trying to pull with
German Chancellor Angela Merkel, berating her leadership skills and spouting
off negative and demonstrably false information about Germany?
Don’t
feel alone, Angela. Trump started the shame shit with Prime Minister Teresa May
when he landed on the U.K.
Hey, Merkel and May are both women. You don’t suppose that would have anything to do with it, do ya?
So this brings us to the UK where Li’l Donnie promptly decided to rag on Theresa May in an interview with The Sun on Thursday.
On
Friday, Trump denied he said anything bad about Theresa May: “It’s called fake
news.”
Trump
suggested that the recording of the
interview would prove his case that he didn’t say anything negative. However,
The Sun published an audio recording of the interview that included the remarks
Trump claimed he did not say.
The
original Sun article, both online and in print, does include Trump calling May
“a very good person. I think she is a nice person. I get along with her very
nicely.” Otherwise, he spoke negatively of her leadership, especially in regards
to Brexit negotiations.
In
person with the Prime Minister, Trump was backpedaling as hard as he could.
Trump is a bully and like all bullies, he’s a coward and flinches from a real
fight. Once he’s safely back on Air Force One, Li’l Donnie will go back to flinging
crap at Theresa May.
He
also goes full on white supremacist by chastising England for allowing so many
immigrant to come in and destroy so much of English culture.
It
should be noted that The Sun is owned by Rupert Murdoch, the same conservative
media mogul who also owns the Trump-friendly Fox News.
In the interview, he also dumped on the mayor of London (who is, by the way, a
Muslim) of “doing a terrible job”. That’s
Trump standard go to for anyone he doesn’t like: they’re doing a terrible job.
Li’l
Donnie’s hostility towards the press continued at the Friday morning press
conference. At one point, he refused to take a question from CNN’s Jim Acosta,
before calling on Fox News correspondent John Roberts. “Let’s go to a real
network,” Trump said.
Well,
let’s move on from that fuckery to some different fuckery across the Atlantic.
That’s
coming up in our 2nd post later today.
