Oh for the love of dog. Eric Trump's tweet on Dec. 31 2019.





******

BTW Trump kicked off the latest round of this insanity after meeting with Russian Foreign
Minister Alexander Lavrov in the White House and then taking a call from Putin 1 week later
after which he bombed a pro Iranian faction in Iraq.

I'm sure that they knew at the time that they were going to "strike back" in some way... how far in advance would they know the general's schedule and know that they could hit him?

The president says he wants to strike back... tweets his "threat, not a warning" nonsense and tells the situation room to come up with options ASAP.

At that point, Jr knows that we're going to do something... but that doesn't mean that he knows anything. It's possible that nobody knew much of anything at that point. Situation room (likely through a call to a golf course) gives him five options and he says "Ooh... I like that one" - but that might have been mere hours before the strike.

Eric trDump got a dishonorable discharge from the Cub Scouts. They tried to teach him how to tie various knots but he was a total failure.

He was so incompetent he could not even tie his own shoe laces. His brother Donnie Jr. had to do that for him.

By using insider information, they hedge their buys to make massive amounts of money. Go Rep
Ted Lieu. Add this to your investigation of Chicago markets.

He does it all the time.

Trump isn't stupid.

He always does what Putin says, and Putin has a lot more money than he does....
