Did anyone actually watch his stupid emergency speech? I'm too scared to dive into a transcript.

According to reports it was an hour long rambling mess even by Trumpian standards.

Reminds me of when I wrote scripts for children TV and one of the rules was saying everything twice.

So apparently Trump believes North Korean missiles can't reach the US because Putin told him so.
I've given it serious thought. I must scorn the ways of my family, and seek a Japanese woman to yield me my progeny. He shall live in the lands of the east, and be well tutored in his sacred trust to weave the best traditions of Japan and the Sacred South together, until such time as he (or, indeed his house, which will periodically require infusion of both Southern and Japanese bloodlines of note) can deliver to the South it's independence, either in this world or in space.  -Lettow April of 2011

What's the deal with the Trump tweet telling European countries to take several hundred ISIS fighters in for trial, or else they'll have to be released?

It's Trump doing the humanitarian thing for once. The only alternative is to hand them over to Iraq, where their rights to due process will not be guaranteed (to say the least).

We might improve relations just by keeping Trump and Pence from going abroad in the future.
The medievals were only too right in taking nolo episcopari as the best reason a man could give to others for making him a bishop. Give me a king whose chief interest in life is stamps, railways, or race-horses; and who has the power to sack his Vizier (or whatever you care to call him) if he does not like the cut of his trousers.

Government is an abstract noun meaning the art and process of governing and it should be an offence to write it with a capital G or so as to refer to people.

Does it matter?

This isn't, and should never be, normal.

Well, Mueller says it ain't entirely accurate.
