trump is such a goddamn shit-for-brains asshole.
Pretending to be Israel's ally - when he doesn't have the first fucking idea about anything. At all.
This morning, President Donald Trump visited Yad Vashem, the Israeli Holocaust memorial museum on the edge of Jerusalem.
...
And, when he left, he signed the guest book: It is a great honor to be here with all of my friends so amazing and will never forget!
...Journalists and activists immediately took Trump to task. Yair Rosenberg of Tablet magazine wrote on Twitter that it was basically just what teenagers write in each others high school yearbooks.
...His advance team had reportedly initially scheduled him for a scant 15 minutes in the museum and thats including the time it would take for him to sign the guest book, lay a wreath, and deliver his remarks. (He ended up onsite for nearly 30 minutes.)
Barack Obamas message reads:
I am grateful to Yad Vashem and all of those responsible for this remarkable institution. At a time of great peril and promise, war and strife, we are blessed to have such a powerful reminder of mans potential for great evil, but also our capacity to rise up from tragedy and remake our world. Let our children come here, and know this history, so that they can add their voices to proclaim never again. And may we remember those who perished, not only as victims but also as individuals who hoped and loved and dreamed like us, and who have become symbols of the human spirit.

(16,926 posts)if both of these notes were shown side-by-side to the great populace - but then again, there's such an anti-intellectual mood now, what with IQ45 leading the charge - I'm afraid it really would only be preaching to the choir - stuff we already know.
He's an ASS - and it's never gonna' change.

(16,926 posts)our last PRESIDENT thought not in paragraphs, but chapters!
The audacity of IQ45 to even THINK (yeah, that's an oxymoron in itself) that he deserves to be in the same state, let alone the same room, is beyond reasoning.
I just can't imagine what was going on in PRESIDENT OBAMA'S mind when he had to greet IQ45 at the White House on Jan. 20, 2017.
