Also that I guess. Too bad Trump doesn't have Darth Cheney controlling him.
He does. THe name of trump's supreme Sith Lord is Robert Mercer, and the direct control is exerted through the sith apprentice Steven Bannon.
We've gone from the Dubya era, when the presidency was run by an Vice President who, however villainous, was nonetheless a 40 year veteran of public service and former congressmen and secretary of defense; to the Trump era when the presidency is run by a reclusive hedgefund manager and his lieutenant, a racist perveyer of the most insidious political pulp press.

Growing Russian threat? To what? Germany? They would get nuked to hell if they invaded a western European country. There is no reason for the US to give any money to NATO. The cold war is over, old people need to stop trying to force a new cold war on those of us who grew up without it. Russia is far less of a threat to world peace then the US is.

I think he is much more stupid than Shrub. For one thing Shrub knew enough about his limitiations to appoint a bunch of proven and intelligent (albeit incredibly evil and one eyed) people to positions in his grace, and for another Shrub, while not being intelligent, had a cunning about himself and was not near as stupid as he let on.
You can say neither of these things about the Oberststurmbanngroppenfuhrer.

Well if I wanted to translate properly into German I'd have used some variation on "Fummeli" or "Gefummel". But if I were doing that I wouldn't be putting both "Oberst" and "Sturmbann" in the title either.

Of course the WLB has plenty of time to do something equally stupid.

7 years of Iraq was a negligibly slight misstep compared to the scorched earth destruction of the fundamental basis of American global influence that Trump has already prepetrated in less than 70 days.

Actually, now that I think about it, "groppen" is how Hitler would have pronounced it according to the stereotype.
