    Right off the bat, hey would probably insult each other’s hairstyles. And it would go downhill from there. Or — Trump will send Dennis Rodman back as ambassador: one-way ticket, please.

    Both are examples of what happens when the people around you are too afraid to tell your haircut is an embarrassment.

    Trump will start his new coalition of Russia, North Korea, Iraq and China. All the Republicans know we have always been allies with them. When you learn history through your gut, we end up with decades of war.

    The cartoon is clever, but I think young Kim has a similar narcissistic personality disorder to Trump’s, so complimenting someone else will come very, very hard to him.

    The only thing ‘funny’ here is that many liberals like Toles are actually stupid enough to believe this gibberish!

    Among other things, Trump has already announced that if a crewman on an Iranian boat flips a crewman on a US sailor on a tin can in the PERSIAN GULF, he’s willing to start WW III to show how “tough” he is. Hmm, would he be in Cheney’s secure undisclosed location bunker when he issues the order to fire??

    Donald Trump is actually the preferred candidate of the political elites in Communist China because he is viewed in Beijing as the candidate least interested in promoting human rights or countering China’s efforts to assert its hegemony across the Asia-Pacific region.

    Well, there is another communist dictatorship that appears to be taking a liking to the presumptive GOP nominee. The Washington Post reports that the North Korean state media is heaping praise on “wise politician” Donald J. Trump:

    [The North Korean] State outlet DPRK Today published an editorial that called the business mogul a “wise politician” and said he could be good for North Korea. “There are many positive aspects to Trump’s ‘inflammatory policies,’” the author of the article wrote, according to a translation from NK News. “Trump said he will not get involved in the war between the South and the North, isn’t this fortunate from North Korea’s perspective?”

    From:http://www.nytimes.com/2016/09/15/us/politics/colin-powell-emails-hack-donald-trump.html

    But the leaked emails make clear that Mr. Powell, who also served as the chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, has no intention of supporting Mr. Trump. In one back-and-forth with a former aide, Mr. Powell insisted that Mr. Trump should not be elected president.

    “No need to debate it with you now, but Trump is a national disgrace and an international pariah,” Mr. Powell wrote in June, noting the criticism of Mr. Trump by several prominent conservatives. “He is in the process of destroying himself, no need for Dems to attack him.”

    Mr. Powell also made clear in a series of exchanges how much he was offended by Mr. Trump’s attacks on the issue of Mr. Obama’s birth. “Yup, the whole birther movement was racist,” Mr. Powell wrote. “That’s what the 99% believe. When Trump couldn’t keep that up he said he also wanted to see if the certificate noted that he was a Muslim. As I have said before, ‘What if he was?’ Muslims are born as Americans everyday.”

    Mr. Powell dismissed as completely ineffective Mr. Trump’s recent attempts to reach out to black voters, saying that the Republican nominee “takes us for idiots.” Mr. Powell said that nothing Mr. Trump could say to black voters would improve his standing, in part because of the things he said about Mr. Obama.

    “He can never overcome what he tried to do to Obama with his search for the birth certificate hoping to force Obama out of the presidency,” Mr. Powell wrote, saying to his aide, “You don’t fall for his false sincerity, I hope.”

    In the emails, Mr. Powell blamed the news media for helping fuel Mr. Trump’s candidacy. In December 2015, he turned down a request from CNN’s Fareed Zakaria to discuss Mr. Trump. “It is time to start ignoring him. You guys are playing his game, you are his oxygen,” Mr. Powell responded.

    In August 2015, Mr. Powell predicted that Mr. Trump would “take it to the convention” in part because news networks were chasing ratings. “He appeals to the worst angels of the G.O.P. nature and poor white folks,” Mr. Powell said in the email.

    In that email, Mr. Powell in part defended Mrs. Clinton’s actions in the attack on the American diplomatic compound in Benghazi, Libya, in 2012.

    In December 2015, he told Condoleezza Rice, his successor at the State Department, that the Republican political attacks on Benghazi were “a stupid witch hunt” and wrote that “basic fault falls on a courageous ambassador who thought Libyans now love me and I am O.K. in this very vulnerable place.” He added that “blame also rests on his leaders and supporters back here,” including Mrs. Clinton.
