At least he sorted out North Korea!
Hang on. The summit is over. Early. No agreement from the great negotiator?

Which he has to do without it being mis-interpreted as anti-Semitic!
A big ask.

If he can't spell it or say it he can't be it, can he?

My daughter is flying to New York for the weekend (as one does).
She has asked us if we want anything on the 'family' WhatsApp.
I have requested a red baseball MAGA hat.
There is what might be called a lively debate amongst my children on WhatsApp just now.
I suspect I'm about to be taken off their WhatsApp group.
I am not holding my breath about the hat.

Someone seems to be mischief making releasing the UK ambassador's memo to the press. I am not surprised at all about the insecure comment going by the sudden staff changes that we hear about.
Needless to say Nigel Farage has jumped in with a comment as he has not been in the media for a few days.

Love him or loathe him, we probably have to admit that the Donald has, so far, reprieved considerable chunks of humanity from certain hellfire and damnation. Despite the best efforts of the neocons in his administration (Bolton, Pompeo etc.) he's frustrated their aggressive intentions and held back from any major US military interventions. If he could only ram a hot poker up the arises of Israel and the Saudis, and hobble the CIA's horses, he might yet get above Tyler in the presidential rankings. For sure the saintly Hillary would have gone in all guns blazing to Syria, Iran and probably North Korea too.

I see Trump has been Tweeting with his narrow minded views and getting it wrong yet again, the man obviously has no idea on how the President of the USA should act or even think.

He was actually almost right on this one considering they are all American citizens with only 1 being born overseas, he forgets as well that they were all elected on a majority vote ticket unlike himself.

In the latest news from bizarreland, fire-breathing neocon national security adviser John Bolton's been speared by Trump. Maybe that'll mean that any trade deals negotiated by Johnson's Tories
won't (for the moment at least) be linked to UK support for US foreign military adventures:

On the other hand, the Donald's attempts to redirect hurricane Dorian over Alabama failed:

Despite his claims that this is all a bit of a bad joke etc. The Donald is fielding a fairly high powered legal team for his impeachment hearing in the Senate -

I thought it was time for a much needed laugh.
Anyone think this will win him a second term?

I trust you are not inviting mockery of the state of head of the Head of State?
