Trump Fawns Over Dictators (last night on fox)

Trump Fawns Over Dictators

"SNIP.......

Here’s how Donald Trump described meeting with Chinese President Xi Jinping on Fox News last night:

* President Xi is a brilliant man. If you went all over Hollywood to look for somebody to play the role of President Xi, you couldn’t find, there’s nobody like that.

* The look, the brain, the whole thing. We had a great relationship. You know, when he first came to Mar-a-Lago, It was so organized by them and by us, but by them very pom, pom, pom. Everything’s like business. No games, you know.

Here’s his take on North Korea’s Kim Jung Un:

* You know, when you come out and as a young man at 24, 23, even though he sort of inherits it, most people when they inherit, they lose it. And that’s easy stuff.

* He took over a country, a very smart people, very, very energetic people, very tough people at a very young age. And he has total dominate control. That’s not easy. These are these are very smart.

Here’s what he says about Russian president Vladimir Putin:

* You can’t beat Russia. Russia right now, I’m not saying anything out of school. I read it in one of our newspapers. So, you know, it’s probably fake news, but maybe not. I don’t think it is.

"[E]ven though he sort of inherits it..."

Sort of inherits it?

And then, "[M]ost people when they inherit, they lose it."

Do tell, Donald.

How this blob continually convinces anyone that he should be in charge of anything greater than a public restroom is a mystery to me.

WAAAAAAAAY beyond parody at this point.

Something is very wrong when a NAZI gets installed in the Oval Office by a former Commie tyrant.

Xi again, Putin as always and Kim even though his people are starving again.

This idiot loves our enemies more than he loves our country. Just sickening and I can't imagine any other politician fawning over these dictators.
