Agreed. All they have to do is look less crazy than us and they come out ahead.

I lived in Charleston 3 yrs while she was Governor of SC.....thought she did a fine job then, as now.

And then you'll do what? Don't know if you've noticed - after all, the State Department has staffing issues and all - but over the last year, even traditionally US-aligned nations have been decoupling themselves from US foreign policy.

So, that would be one non-answer, any others?

Yep. Empty threat. When you have to buy your friends, you can’t effectively threaten anyone.

Trump scares no one.

She came in at the right time. The economy was booming and grabbed that wave and rode it hard.

I thought she showed grace, strength and leadership with the Dylan Roof matter. The only time she really impacted me.

That whole security breach of the South Carolina Tax Dept. was a fiasco. She kind of stumbled off the block on that one and recovered nicely.

I think she's been given a position for show. I think she could do more in the Cabinet.

She's basically telling certain allies , and others that might want things from us in the future, that we will remember this slight, if it indeed happens. Nothing wrong with that , IMO. Its a US embassy on Israeli soil , the only 2 parties that have any real say in the location of it.

Yes, excellent on DR murders

I too think she'd be better in cabinet....but she despises T, so would she really want it..? Guess you take a position when it's offered...

That is a good point about despising T.
