LOL. But his "fake news" response FELT so good! These guys are as bad as a bunch of flower power 60's hippies. If it FEELS good, say it. Believe me, zero critical thinking goes into 75% of the junk that gets posted on this site by the RWNJs. If you read and think you are going to struggle to follow the threads here.

Worrying? Spain is spying on suspected criminals and money-launderers (Russians--not Americans). Isn't that called investigating crime? Kind of odd the way Trump and associates keep turning up on the other end of the conversations.

Ever since we've had a scumbag president who has been dirty dealing his whole adult life, it's like LE is not allowed to do their job because the sleaze at the top might get caught doing something, which he then blames on someone else or on the people who caught him.

Maybe Dick Wolfe's next show will be Crime and Disorder--stories ripped from the headlines of the International News.

1. The tap was between two Russians

2. Trump Jr. had contacts with Russians

I guess we can expect some "Tough talk" about Spain from Trump in the next few days, or his next lie: Spain spied on the trump campaign.
Or he'll announce that Spain harbors terrorists ......

Trump may be the greatest monster the world has ever seen.
Or Putin puppet, or Putin court jester.

Well put.

Governments around the world are keeping an eye on known criminals (Russian mobsters, money launderers, killers, hackers) and associates of Donald Trump pop up in their conversations ... all over the world!

Then Trump supporters complain that these governments are spying on Americans!

This is the dirty circle Trump has always run in, he generates a lot of business for money launderers apparently.

They are currently printing money to pay debts and then buying bonds to pay for the money they just printed. Ponzi scheme of the highest order. They want Trump gone so they can keep the Ponzi going.

I would not put it past the criminal element in any government to fabricate evidence against Trump. They have too much invested to just give up.
lol, wow dude, that is a massive stretch.


EU is doing fine and has no need to bend to Trump. You just have to deal with it, because that is the reality of this world. Trump's attacks on one national leader after another is aligning our one time allies against us.

it is looking more and more like China is winning by courting the same leaders Trump is publicly degrading.

Trump acts like a school bully and seems to think big threats will make leaders scared of him and willing to make a deal.

What trump is missing is that they get stronger at home when Trump publicly attacks them. Trump's words actually weaken his position but he is too dumb and ego driven to see it.

Merkel would have been crushed at home if she went into a trade war with the US, but now? Well now virtually every global leader can increase popularity by resisting Trumpism.

CHina is using that to build an alliance that could crush the US in a global trade war. Trump meanwhile has managed to push our allies away and into China's arms.

Bingo.

According to Pew Research, the only nations where U.S. approval isn't on the decline is Russia and Israel.

Trump's proclamation on tariffs today is unlikely to improve that situation.

The idea that we're the big dog here is nonsense. China is eating us for lunch, making trade agreements left and right, oil deals without petrodollars, ...

How much intelligence other nations are sharing with the U.S. these days is up in the air, given that it's clear anything Trump learns about is shared with Putin.
