Amateur Hour Continues

This is an excerpt from a report currently seen on CNN.com from 35 minutes ago:

"Cables from U.K.'s Ambassador to the US blast Trump as 'inept', incompetent" by Michelle Kosinski, Schams Elwazer and Stephen Collinson, CNN 10:04 pm EDT July 6, 2019

Diplomatic cables sent from the United Kingdom's ambassador to the United States back to London describe President Donald Trump as "inept", "insecure" and "incompetent" a U.K. official confirmed Saturday to CNN.

The leak could cause serious diplomatic damage between the two "special relationship" allies.

While foreign envoys of all nations are often candid in classified dispatches back home, there are periodic episodes when such assessments leak, causing great political embarrassment. Months of efforts by the ambassador, Sir Kim Darroch and his diplomats to build trust with Trump and his political acolytes will be undermined.

The cables were leaked to and first published by the Daily Mail.

Darroch used secret cables and briefing notes to warn the UK government that Trump's "career could end in disgrace," and described conflicts within the White House as "knife fights," according to the Daily Mail.

A UK government source told CNN the memos described in the Daily Mail story are genuine.

The Daily Mail says the memos span the period between 2017 to present day, covering everything from Trump's foreign policy to his 2020 reelection plans. ....

Nice to see that our President has earned such great respect from an old and important ally.
They're corrupt as they come. Do you really think they would say anything good about someone pulling their crimes out in to the light?

More like they handed the title and responsibilities of super power to us and expected us to act like it.

Considering we opposed colonization and never had a dictator reigning supreme, I guess they should have been smart enough to see that we would probably go our own way and reject a little bully's attempt to rule the entire world as it saw fit. A lot of problems in the ME are still the result of England's attempt to define and patch together countries; let's not forget British "diplomacy" at the end of WW1 as a real winning policy ... seems like Marshall had a significantly better touch.

I learned in another thread that the Treaty of Versailles was Wilson's handiwork.
 
I find it extremely American to have athletes who represent the country speak out against our elected officials. Regardless if you agree with their stance.
I think it's extremely American too. I also think it is extremely Un-American to do it during the National Anthem.

Maybe, but I don't remember my old school history that way, and I can't see that WIlson could ride roughshod over all the other leaders, so I doubt that. Read up on British "nation building" in the middle east sometime ... that was a piece of work. I think (but don't absolutely remember) that they had a heavy hand in patching together people of conflicting ethnicities and religions (catholic, orthodox, and muslim ... nothing inflammatory there) to form eastern European countries ,,, we got involved in a little war in the Clinton days when that one unraveled. Then there was some of their absolute best tailoring in the partitioning of Palestine and India.
 
Not sure this is smart.

MAGA! Wonder how long before Lyin' Ted is spotted in Nikes.


If I had their money I would burn and replace them.

As it stands I will be buying pairs, not Nike, to replace my running shoes as they wear out. Just have to find a New Balance or Under Armour pair that's comparable to the Nike Pegasus model I like.

I never liked Nikes running shoes. Lots of better options, new balance being one. Plus, their higher end running shoes are made in America.

I see Trump as just being an arrogant Yankee prick from New York City. There are millions just like him. Why should anyone think that he would be that much different from most other NYC folks?
I think it's funny that people think Trump is so dispicable. It's as if they think politicians are morally upstanding citizens or something. Trump is like that mean old coach you had in high school..... he was an a-hole, but you always knew where you stood with him as he didn't sugar coat anything

I affectionately remember how my old coach banged porn stars after his wife had just given birth and lied about everything under the sun. Good memories!
