Pompeo experiences the sound of one hand clapping after laying out Trump's great "accomplishments."

1. Russia clapped? . . . .

[Faux pas]

2. I can't listen to

it long enough to hear the sound of one hand clapping. I have no fucks to give any of the hump's ball kissers.

3. A little surprised they didn't laugh out loud.

4. What a boring speech.

He is not exactly a "ball of fire" is he? Monotone would put me to sleep. Hard to believe that this chubby guy could convince ANYONE to help tRump frame another election fraud. tRump insulted one man by saying "he is not worthy of carrying Mike Pompeo's jock strap" His belly hangs over so much, I doubt he can even see if he is wearing a jockstrap or not. I can understand why tRump supports him so much. Bland and boring. Not likely to give tRump any competition in the personality department.

5. The looks on the faces of the audience

Wow. Disbelief. Disgust. Nobody smiling except Pompeo. I made it more than halfway. Talked about the evil of east Berlin. That was Putin asshole. Ugh. I hate this man.

[Grins]

6. Same thing happened to Pence...

...a couple years ago. (NATO?) Made some comment how Trump is great and...silence.

Worse than one person clapping.

7. This is what the Trump message looks like

when given to people who aren't brainwashed or compromised.

8. Well...

...I for one am just a bit surprised he called out Russia as many times as he did to be entirely honest. I'm sure it won't happen much more if any as soon as Mr. Putin hears this speech and complains to his lackey in chief. I sat through the whole speech and the lies and misinformation was staggering to me. The U.S. is leading the way against climate change? I almost spewed my morning coffee. But I digress. Very little applause at the end but I was hoping for complete silence. I guess our European friends and allies are much too polite for that though.

9. I hope he gets the clap he deserves. nt

10. The bullshit alarm sounded loudly when he started talking about Ukraine.
