The Chinese Chief negotiator actually laughed out loud at Trump. In the Oval Office.   :wacko:

I hadn't noticed that the first time I saw it, the Chinese are sitting there saying to themselves, "I can't believe how easy this has become" as they make a note to further play to Trump's need to contradict his own experts.

At this point you are going to have the Russians and the Chinese both competing to influence the 2020 elections in Trump's favour.

Trump is going to be livid with India and Pakistan for over shadowing his Kim love in.

Nah, it won't get near as much coverage on Fox and CNN.

Yep, there are two headlines that mention India or Pakistan on the CNN.com homepage; and there are twelve that mention Donald Trump and two more that mention Ivanka. (3/43/1 on Foxnews.com though they also list India-Pakistan tension as a "Hot Topic".)  Nothing can overshadow the Trump.
In Italy, for thirty years under the Borgias, they had warfare, terror, murder and bloodshed, but they produced Michelangelo, Leonardo da Vinci and the Renaissance. In Switzerland, they had brotherly love, they had five hundred years of democracy and peace—and what did that produce? The cuckoo clock

Thanks for the Sav.

So the news coverage he expects and gets in some quarters is heading for that which Kim enjoys in the DRPK?

To be fair the Kashmir thing is deep buried even on the Guardian page, and we are talking about former colonies with a lot of Brits/local immigrants with ancestry there.

On mobile layout, it is story below Trump.

on the regular page it is one of several tiny boxes below Brexit, Trump, and Labou antisemitism debates.

Watching Cohen's testimony, this is very entertaining.

Every time Trump negotiates with foreign leaders, I'm reminded of Babylon 5.

In practice it seems eager to pass responsibility to the President than make tough decisions.


Congress has been ceding power to the Executive Branch for 80-some years.  It's gotten worse in recent years, which is made more apparent by having an idiot in the White House.

Just found out that at a charity auction of celebrity portraits in E. Hampton, my portrait by artist William Quigley topped  list at $60K

"@realDonaldTrump: at a charity auction my portrait topped  list at $60K" coincidentally you also have a $60K charitable receipt for 2013 ;)

Can you imagine being so vain that you buy a portrait of yourself to boast about it online? Must be painful.

Presumably if they nuke each other into oblivion they'll get 4 headlines on each network.

It's worse. He used a fake buyer and the Trump Foundation, a registered charitable organization, paid the fake buyer back.
