Tweet of the Day: Trump at Decided Disadvantage?
"Trump has found that his lack of experience in politics and diplomacy, which require policy knowledge, team building and nuanced negotiating ability, has left him at a decided disadvantage despite his boasts about his deal-making prowess" https://t.co/B5cZYgQbfE

So many tiresome people pn Twitter…
Credentialed morons we have in abundsnce. People who take the fishwrap of record as Gospel are generally odious.
I really can’t even muster any more than revulson at these people anymore. His very idea that the so-called “government shutdown” was a serious issue to attack either Democrats or Republicans dispatches Fukuyama’s credibility within seconds.
What really puts Trump at a disadvantage when he is negotiating with KJU is that KJU knows that Trump is a wuss who will not order a pre-emptive strike on the DPRK.
Trump will, but only as an absolute last resort. That should be the thinking of anyone sitting in the Oval Office. The norks are good enough at stirring the pot of aggression that all the US has to do is sit back and wait. They will do something egregious enough that the DoD will convince Mr. Trump the only solution is to be aggressive militarily.
Does RockTroll really understand the difference between preemptive and retaliatory?
Does he understand asymmetric responses?
One wonders…
