monitoring Trump and relevant contemporary events

If it works out to a "first strike", lets think about fully arming the S Koreaqns with NIKE ZEUS's and let THEM decide.

Your(and gooey's) light thinking will lead to WWIII as a definite possibility.

However if we fully arm both sides and send them info about MAD, maybe they will come to respect each other a bit more.

The new SK president thinks more like me than you.
I think thats the key to this all.

stop being purposely obtuse. If you dont get the analogy , ask someone who understands

Wht scares me i if Trump has a one dimensional thought pattern as yours.

We will never agree to your "nuke em" crap.

ANY idea how many lives would be lost ?

Ps "T rex" is Rex Tillerson , one of a few folks in the qmdin who thinks like an adult.

Your entire attitude is "**** S Korea and **** Japan while were at it"

Im glad that Trump is being distanced by a growing number of his "colleagues " in the Senate

Will. Not. Go. Over. Well.

The hosts of MSNBC’s “Morning Joe” said on Monday that the White House counselor Kellyanne Conway complained extensively about President Trump in private conversations with them before he was elected.

Mika Brzezinski said during Monday’s broadcast that she heard Ms. Conway denounce the candidate in private after promoting him on television.

“She would get off the air, the camera would be turned off, the microphone would be taken off, and she would say ‘Blech, I need to take a shower,’ because she disliked her candidate so much,” Ms. Brzezinski said of Ms. Conway.

Joe Scarborough, Ms. Brzezinski’s co-host and fiancé, echoed the statements, saying that Ms. Conway said after being interviewed that she had only taken the job for money and that she would soon be done defending Mr. Trump.

“ ‘But first I have to take a shower, because it feels so dirty to be saying what I’m saying,’ ” Ms. Brzezinski added, mocking what the hosts said was Ms. Conway’s attitude at the time. “I guess she’s just used to it now.”

So, Conway grasps to some degree that her behavior is morally and intellectually equivalent to wading through the **** in a sewer.

But the money is really good, so she'll do it.

New NBC WSJ Poll. 78 percent of Americans think there should be aspecial prosecutotor for Trump andRussia probe and 15percent do not.

Trump revealed highly classified info to Russian diplomats in meeting

President Trump revealed highly classified information to the Russian foreign minister and ambassador in a White House meeting last week, according to current and former U.S. officials, who said that Trump’s disclosures jeopardized a critical source of intelligence on the Islamic State.

The information Trump relayed had been provided by a U.S. partner through an intelligence-sharing arrangement considered so sensitive that details have been withheld from allies and tightly restricted even within the U.S. government, officials said.

The partner had not given the United States permission to share the material with Russia, and officials said that Trump’s decision to do so risks cooperation from an ally that has access to the inner workings of the Islamic State. After Trump’s meeting, senior White House officials took steps to contain the damage, placing calls to the CIA and National Security Agency.

“This is code-word information,” said a U.S. official familiar with the matter, using terminology that refers to one of the highest classification levels used by American spy agencies. Trump “revealed more information to the Russian ambassador than we have shared with our own allies.”

The revelation comes as Trump faces rising legal and political pressure on multiple Russia-related fronts. Last week, he fired FBI Director James B. Comey in the midst of a bureau investigation into links between the Trump campaign and Moscow. Trump’s subsequent admission that his decision was driven by “this Russia thing” was seen by critics as attempted obstruction of justice.

One day after dismissing Comey, Trump welcomed Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov and Ambassador Sergey Kislyak — a key figure in earlier Russia controversies — into the Oval Office. It was during that meeting, officials said, that Trump went off script and began describing details about an Islamic State terrorist threat related to the use of laptop computers on aircraft.

Then the 78% are idiots. There is no more special prosecutor statute. Also there must be evidence of a CRIME. And there ain't none.

The only thing that I can see that warrants appointing a special prosecutor is the IRS' persecution of conservative groups during the Obama Administration.

Give it a rest. Last I checked, no one on A2K was sitting on the US security council making decisions. He's allowed his opinion just like everyone else. Disagree and move on.

The info Trump shared was so classified WH officials contacted CIA and NSA right after it happened. Washington Post has the info but for purposes of national security, they are not sharing as government officials asked them not to share it. Apparently, they can keep a secret better than Trump. He needs to resign. He is incompetent imbecile.

Yup...just as I thought it was all a ******* lie...more fake news.

All the people in the room with Trump deny the account of "unnamed" sources. And all you silly cheese heads bought it hook line and sinker.
