And at this point, it's pretty clear he doesn't need one. You guys are fucked.

Antipresident Cheeto himself admitted that the US has been very foolish recently... of course, he probably meant something different than what I heard in that.
More importantly, Putin admitted that he wanted Trump to win the last election.

But it is possible that Trump has finally gone too far even for the Republican establishment now, given the statements that I've seen various GOP figures issuing in the last day. The question is, are they perfunctory, or will there still be red-side outrage in a week?

Trump, standing with Putin, sided with him over U.S. intel. Is this the dawn of 'America's surrender'?

To the best of my knowledge, as long as the Angry Cheeto lets trickle-up economics give the donor class everything they want and more, Mitch McYertle (R-Sala-ma-sond), Paul Ryan (ZEGS-Wisconsin), and others of much ilk show no sign of giving one fat damn, or even a skinny damn, what he does or doesn't do.
I just had a thought.
The Balseraph-in-Chief has been complaining that other NATO member states haven't been paying their share in the costs of keeping NATO going. (Never mind that he's only looking at dollars spent directly on NATO, and is ignoring things such as upkeep of bases and member nations' training of other member nations' personnel.) He's now given the rest of NATO a reason to squeeze the USA out of the alliance. I doubt that the Balseraph-in-Chief is intelligent enough to have done this on purpose, though...

The phrase, diplomatic fellatio comes to mind. I don't think I've seen that much cock gobbling on a public press conference since the AVN awards.
I'm just waiting for someone to unironically announce the John McCain has been punished by God with brain cancer for speaking out against Trump, or something utterly retarded like that. I love the smell of rotaries in the morning. You know one time, I got to work early, before the rush hour. I walked through the empty carpark, I didn't see one bloody Prius or Golf. And that smell, you know that gasoline smell, the whole carpark, smelled like.... ....speed. One day they're going to ban them.

I mean, they're still not making as much noise over that as they did about things as minor as the colour of the suit Obama wore.

Some voters supported Trump when he made his statement in Helsinki, and continue to support Trump even after his flip-flop.
This is why the Balseraph-in-Chief will never have a 0% approval rating - there are people who accept his doublespeak.

Let's talk about diplomatic immunity. And extradition (y'know, I finally got around to noticing the formulation "extraordinary rendition," which I now don't believe was ever a coincidence). And letting the Russians interrogate a retired U.S. ambassador.
For once, I agree with the word President Windrip used, although not what he meant by it. He thinks it's an "incredible" offer. It certainly is incredibly bad. One Trumpite who posted comments in support of turning McFaul over to the Ivans kept referring to Windrip as "our preeminent leader." WTF, over?! Incidentally, my Merriam-Webster's says the etymology of the word "extradition" is related to the word "treason." In this case, that seems very appropriate.

Oh, that offer is definitely incredible. It stretches my credulity...

Diplomatic immunity is something granted by the hosting country. It can be retracted, but usually isn't for diplomatic (and 'diplomatic') personnel. And just because 1 country gave you diplomatic immunity doesn't mean the one you are in has...

... I never thought I'd feel nostalgic for the days when the phrase "Washington's puppet government" referred to assholes in other countries whose bids for power were supported because they served our political agenda.
Ah yes, the Shah of Iran, so natsukashii. /s
I just finished reading Harry Potter and the Methods of Rationality, so I've been thinking a lot about Bayesian probability. It seems like Trump being a Russian asset explains more of his actions than ignorance of foreign policy alone. Certainly, he's not given to diplomacy, and he's easy to manipulate. Certainly, he likes strongmen like Putin, Kim, and Duterte. But the constant compliments of Putin, and the fact that he tells Twitter about his plans with Russia before his own staff, I think those can only be explained if Putin has some dirt on Trump. (I mean, it's either that or the Imperius Curse.)
