During the Cuban missile crisis, John F Kennedy became a hero to much of the world’s population, credited with pulling the world back from the brink of nuclear disaster with statecraft, a little help from spies in Russia and great oratory.
Donald Trump’s phonecall – of which a transcript is now in circulation – to the governor of the Pacific Island of Guam, which is feeling threatened by the prospect of North Korean missile tests, will certainly propel Trump into his own, unique historical bracket.
Not in a good way.
The official White House press release about the conversation was succinct and professional:
Trump’s conversation was not:
Rambling. Inane. Narcissistic. Vacuous. An empty vessel making the most noise. An empty vessel with his finger on the nuclear button.
The governor apparently told Trump that Guam has never felt safer.

Just think, Given the opportunity, Liam Fox is going to do a trade deal with Trump. How much longer do we have to wait before people get really frightened about the mania dressed up as politics, but in reality it’s handing the lunatics the keys to the asylum.
Sorry but I felt compelled to stop reading this shite when I got to “… with you 1000%.”
We’re being played. In a few weeks’ time, both Kim Jong Un and Trump will be more popular than ever with their respective plebs, having pulled the world back from the brink.
Reblogged this on sdbast.
He has to retire on the grounds of ineptitude
two fat men with funny haircuts able to blow up the world.
There is a real need for a Trump to intelligible English translator mind you I don’t think even a super computer could cope with the huge task required !
AS THEY SIT ON THEIR BIG FAT ARSES THREATNING EACH OTHER, WE, THE ORDINARY PEOPLE OF THE WORLD SIT BACK AND WONDER HOW DID THESE TWO MEGALOMANIACS EVER COME TO POWER!
ONLY THOSE WHO VOTED FOR TRUMP KNOW!
WHEN THEY RUN TO FIGHT, ONLY THEN, WILL THEY SEE THEIR FOLLY!
THOSE WHO LIVE IN NORTH KOREA KNOW NO BETTER!
POOR BASTARDS!
He has to be the most arrogant stupid, president ever. He is so unpredictable which probably is how he has managed for so long in business. This isn’t business, we’re talking about the lives of millions of people and neither of these 2 idiots can find a way to resolve their stupid dispute
If it were not so serious, it would be almost bad comedy if not tragedy. ……
