Of Course Donald Trump never trusted the CIA and thinks he’s smarter that the intelligence community….
He is now desperately trying to resurrect a meeting with the North Korean’s…..
“A new U.S. intelligence assessment has concluded that North Korea does not intend to give up its nuclear weapons any time soon, three U.S. officials told NBC News — a finding that conflicts with recent statements by President Trump that Pyongyang intends to do so in the future.”
“President Trump is continuing to pursue a nuclear summit with North Korean leader Kim Jong Un even though the CIA analysis, which is consistent with other expert opinion, casts doubt on the viability of Trump’s stated goal for the negotiations, the elimination of North Korea’s nuclear weapons stockpile.”
“In an odd twist, a list of potential concessions by North Korea in the CIA analysis included the possibility that Kim Jong Un may consider offering to open a Western hamburger franchise in Pyongyang as a show of goodwill.”….

Kim will open the hamburger joint, Trump will declare victory ,and his acolytes will cheer the arrival of”free enterprise” in NK.
The Nukes?They will be the subject of “further discussions.”
The Nobel awaits!
CG says
Which burger franchise would open there?
Burger Dear Leader?
Nuke in the Box?
Big Boy?

I just saw Trump’s lackey supporters interviewed on the CIA FBI etc. None of them trust anything but Donald Trump. They’ll believe whatever he tells them. Sheep. Republican sheep is all they are.
And not a damn Republican sticking around DC will call them what they are.
Defeat. Every. Republican.
CG says
They are Trump Sheep. Not Republican Sheep. They will hate Republicans the second Donald Trump tells them to.
And since you can’t defeat every Republican, maybe a realistic look will be better. Maybe some that will survive in 2018 will feel like they are now emboldened to tell the truth. Maybe the Republicans outside of Washington D.C. or outside of elected office will need to lead the way.
CG says
and if G-d willing, John McCain gets better, you know he will have plenty to say now.
scott says
No they are Republican sheep. The never Trumper Republicans have never been less relevant.
Governors Hogan and Baker are essentially independents these days.
And while I hope John McCain completely recovers putting your trust in him to lead the Congressional GOP resistance to Trump shows how completely feckless that group is now.
I’m sorry. Truth is truth.
In 2018 Republican=Trump and Trump=Republican.
CG says
I see no basis for saying that Baker and Hogan are Independents. There have always been moderate Republicans.
Again, those who defend Trump reflexively, on anything, are loyal to him, and not to Republicans.
