"Fixing" Problems He Caused

The thing about Donald Trump is that he constantly is causing his own problems. He does something really stupid, then does something that he thinks "solves" the problem he caused in the first place.

Most of the time he causes political problems for himself with his constant lying, but this habit has much larger consequences that endanger the entire economy and risk nuclear war.

For example:

A while back Donald Trump started making bellicose tweets and threatening to nuke North Korea. Then Trump did an about face, had a meeting with the dictator that runs the joint, Kim Jong Un, proclaiming how smart and how much Little Rocket Man loves his country. Trump got nothing from North Korea and publicly gave a petty dictator a blowjob.

Trump adopted Kim's position that the United States and North Korea should pursue "denuclearization of the Korean peninsula," which basically means that Trump will retreat from South Korean peninsula, abandoning our allies.

Trump brags he saved us from nuclear war -- the one he threatened to start.

A while back Trump started a trade war with China and our allies. Other countries are now retaliating. The trade war is hurting companies like Harley Davidson, but even the threat of a trade war was killing American farmers who export soybeans to China. So the other day Trump announced that he would spend billions of dollars to subsidize farmers hurt by the idiotic trade war that he started. It's nothing short of a bribe to make them overlook how much he's screwing them over.

Months ago Trump tore up the deal to limit Iran's nuclear ambitions, which was reached by international consensus. The other day Iranian President Rouhani said, "America should know that peace with Iran is the mother of all peace, and war with Iran is the mother of all wars." That's a pretty conciliatory thing for an Iranian to say, considering that most every time an Iranian says "America" it's preceded by "Death to."

But Trump responded with a blistering all-caps Twitter tirade threatening to destroy Iran if they ever threaten the United States again.

Which is almost exactly what Trump did when Kim Jong Un threatened to nuke the United States. And then Trump turned around and had a summit meeting with Kim and has since had nothing bad to say about the petty little dictator, who by all reports is still developing nuclear capabilities (according to the Wall Street Journal).

And the stupid thing is, Iran is going to continue to yammer "Death to America" and Trump will do nothing about it, because Trump is stupid and weak, and is Putin's puppet. Putin uses Iran and Hezbollah to indirectly attack the United States, usually through Israel. (This eternal antagonism is intentional and mutually beneficial because it keeps the conservatives in power in all involved countries: Russia, Iran, Israel, and the United States.)

Trump desperately wants a "win" with Iran to make Obama look bad. As he did with North Korea, Trump will sell out any- and everyone to make himself look good.

So what did Putin and Trump talk about in Helsinki? None of his advisors seem to know.

I'd wager that Putin agreed to let Trump start a fake beef with Iran. Then Putin will come to the United States later this year and "broker" a fabulous new agreement with Iran, solving the problem that Trump will cast as Obama's fault.

The agreement will keep the status quo exactly as it is. Iran will sell oil, and continue to ramp down their nuclear program. It will make Putin look great, and Trump will bask in his master's glow.

And again, Trump will "fix" a problem that he caused in the first place.

Trump is just a transparent con man. A piece of trash who changes his story almost every hour.

First he asks Russia to hack the Democrats. They do. Trump's son, son-in-law, security advisor, campaign manager and other campaign surrogates meet dozens of times with Russian ambassadors, lawyers and spies. Republican and NRA operatives like Paul Erickson were literally sleeping with Russian spies like Maria Butina.

Then Trump wins the election and denies Russia messed with it. He blames a 400-lb fat guy sitting naked on his bed (could that be projection?). Pressed, all his experts constantly acknowledge Trump is lying. Then Trump grudgingly admits Russia interfered. Then he flip-flops on this ten more times, back and forth, back and forth, looking like a mendacious, feeble-minded nitwit embarrassing himself and everyone who works for or supports him.

In Helsinki Trump fawns all over the man who ordered the hacking of our election, the man who made Trump president. Reporters ask Putin if he wanted Trump to win and if he helped him. Putin says yes!

And days later Trump insists that Russia wants Democrats to win, even though Putin publicly endorsed Trump while getting a blowjob from him in Helsinki.

And then, to top it all off, Trump orders the IRS to eliminate the requirement that PACs report the identity of their donors, opening the floodgates for foreign money into American elections. The governor of Montana has already sued over this.

Why did Trump do this? He wants the Russian money, of course: he's notoriously cheap. But it's also quite possibly a false-flag operation in the works. Russia and other countries will secretly fill Trump campaign coffers, while making a few small donations to Democratic PACs, funneling through innocuous intermediaries, which will conveniently be "discovered" by WikiLeaks at some embarrassing point in the fall campaign.

Trump will then say, "See! I told you Russia wanted the Democrats to win! Nyah, nyah!"

This man is a traitor. Each day that Republicans let this piece of garbage sit in the Oval Office they blacken their souls as collaborators in treason.
