What a Weak American President Looks Like

BuzzFeed: āTrump spent much of this past weekend watching the U.S. Womenās Golf Open at his family-owned golf club, a kind of metaphor for a presidency disconnected from actual power. But the health care failure ā in which Trump allowed himself to lose control of his own agenda, and then lose the fight for that agenda ā was the most humiliating in a sweep of presidential defeats.ā
āThe White House has lost control of its foreign policy to the military and to allies who canāt work with a globally loathed American leader even if they wanted to. He has lost control of his domestic policy to Congress, which has been unable to give him a signature win despite Republicans controlling both chambers. He has lost control of his own aides to leaks and investigations, of his old television cronies to spiteful personal feuds, and most of all of the narrative of an āAmerica Firstā presidency with a coherent vision or promise.ā
Also interesting: āEven the presidentās top backers are losing patience. Billionaire Trump patrons Rebecca and Bob Mercer are āapoplecticā over the health care debacle, with renewed fears that Trumpās lofty goals of changing Washington have become all but impossibleā
Donald Trump and Shinzo Abe have vowed to increase pressure on North Korea after the regime launched a missile over Japan on Tuesday morning.
I'd say Kim Jung crossed Trumps red line.
Back in January, Donald Trump responded to Kim Jong Unās claim that he was close to testing an intercontinental ballistic missile (ICBM)āthe kind of long-range missile that, if fitted with a nuclear warhead, could deliver the worldās deadliest weapon to the United States. āNorth Korea just stated that it is in the final stages of developing a nuclear weapon capable of reaching parts of the U.S.,ā the American president-elect tweeted. āIt wonāt happen!ā
Has North Korea Already Passed Trump's Red Line?
Donald Trump is a bigger pussy than Obama!!!! LOL
