Trump didn't say shit about Africans having to solve their own problems. He called AFRICA a shithole country. Now you have to go find the biggest Uncle Tom from the Motherland to rep Trump?? Sorry but that's not gonna work. By your own logic, Bliss, why are YOU in this country?? What was wrong with Australia?? And why are you more entitled than any other immigrant to want to be here?? And don't say shit about how you emigrated legally. This is what the African Union thinks about Trump and his comments, 2:30 minute vid. You just repping on the wrong side of history with this dude. (FYI, start learning what obstruction of justice means. It's a real thing. )
Letter from Trump prompts African leaders to refrain from criticising him Reuters • By Aaron Maasho • Thu, Feb 1, 2018 ADDIS ABABA (Reuters) - African leaders say they have decided to refrain from issuing a resolution to criticise Donald Trump's alleged reference to their nations as "shithole countries" because the U.S. president sent them a letter expressing respect for the continent. The leaders who met at an African Union summit in the Ethiopian capital were initially set to demand an apology from Trump over the remark reported by sources at a meeting on immigration with him this month. Trump denies making the comment.... Rwanda's President Paul Kagame, who met Trump last week on the sidelines of the annual World Economic Forum in Davos, Switzerland, said Trump's reported comment had no impact on the AU summit. "When the United States decided to give us Trump as their president we deal with that president of the United States. It is not an issue of whether you appreciate him for this or for that, it is a job that he is doing for his country," added Kagame, who assumed the African Union's chairmanship this year. He said both he and Trump had stressed the need for more cooperation...." More.. https://www.yahoo.com/news/letter-t...eaders-refrain-criticising-him-075704583.html
They don’t want a fall-out out of fear those development aid checks will be stopped. So they will say something that sounds good to his face and curse him behind his back.
Whuuuut? You mean curse like every President does (in closed meetings) about other leaders or countries? To be fair and balanced, you should run to the WP to report your nugget of wisdom, so we can hyperventilate on CNN over those curses 24/7 for a month.
OK... Trump can say whatever the heck he wants (as he already does). If a person is regularly doing and saying foul crap to you (and others), but when called out... They have a lame excuse and/or say sorry... It would be understandable for the person to question/doubt their sincerity. However... If the offending person were to come clean, with a detailed apology in which they acknowledged their actions, and followed up by changing their behavior... Over time that may be a person whom you can say... maybe he/she was truly apologetic. This letter from Trump (clearly at the urging of his staff) is nothing more than a half-baked attempt to appease anyone who objected to his BS statement.
There's a difference in having justified criticism for someone based on their own actions, and having malice for an entire continent because you happen to be a bigot.
And besides for goodness sake, if I had people like Kagame and Museveni backing me up I’d seriously advise myself. I wouldn’t use that as a well- done point at all. Presidents who are seriously undermining democracy in their countries saying Trump is the best American President ever, go figure. Congratulations Mr Trump, you have great friends.
It's yet to be boring with this group. How about one of the latest bigly revelations... Apparently, he considers many of us to be "un-American" and "treasonous" for not applauding his SOTU speech. SMH!
In Trump's defense though, he has the mentality of a child. Did I say "in defense?" I probably should have said "in all honesty" or something.
I seriously question the so called cognitive evaluation his doc did recently. Clearly there are some very basic first level assessments I do that he couldn't pass, let alone those that are more in-depth. Unfortunately most doctors do not even do the basics though....they simply are not trained or skilled in these areas.
I'd love to know what that evaluation says. But he does have the best words and the best brain and is a very stable genius so those doctors who say otherwise are obviously liars.
I seriously don't think they did much of an eval. They will usually send them off for evaluations....even after stroke or any traumatic brain injury. This is an area that is a big gap in the medical system in this country. (Even with the BEST of the docs)
The whole country/world is one big playground for him. Hope he doesn't accidentally play with the nukes one day. They said they were gonna childproof them though. So yeah he was impressed by Macron's military parade so he called up Pentagon to order for one. Has to include tanks, he said. So the Americans have an opportunity to feel patriotic.
One Asian looking lady psychologist (I forgot her name) wrote a book that comes to the conclusion he has some psychological disorders.
