Donald Trump takes to Twitter with threat to terminate deal with Cuba.

Courtesy of the New York Post: 

The comment is the latest hardline stance towards the island nation following the Friday death of longtime leader Fidel Castro. While President Obama and some other world leaders issued carefully worded statements on Castro's death, Trump's statement called him a "brutal dictator who oppressed his own people for nearly six decades." 

The tweet goes further, suggesting that he would roll back the first major thaw in U.S.-Cuba relations since Castro seized power in the late 1950s. Following months of secret meetings, President Obama and Raul Castro, who now runs the island, announced an agreement to normalize diplomatic relations and begin allowing trade and travel between the countries.

Damn that is short sighted.

With Fidel Castro now dead, and his brother talking of stepping down as Cuba's president, this is a prime opportunity for the US to exert some influence and work to create a relationship that benefits both countries. 

But no, the corpulent tangerine anus has to shit on every policy decision that President Obama has ever made simply out of spite, without any regard for the benefits they may afford the American people or our relations with foreign countries.

    This appears to be the source of Trump’s unsupported claim of massive voter fraud

    ...Gregg Phillips, a former Health and Human Services Commission executive who appears to be the source of the unsubstantiated claim. In the days following the election, the self-styled voter integrity activist said on Twitter that he has discovered that more than 3 million people who voted were not citizens — a claim which was later highlighted by InfoWars, a conspiracy theory website run by fellow Texan and Trump ally Alex Jones.

      The last thing that an undocumented person wants to do is walk into a polling place and try to vote. The fraud, this time as before, came from pre-election voter suppression and, on the day, manipulation with the vote tallies. Something that an individual voter cannot do.

  4. I remember how delicately Cuba and the US worked to accomplish the deal, with the help of the government of Canada and Pope Francis. Negotiations took place over many, many months.

    One can only imagine how often the principals involved had to set their egos aside in order to keep their focus on what they ultimately hoped to accomplish for their respective countries.

    The result was a win-win for both countries.

    In trump's world, if one person wins, another must lose. He will not negotiate with Cuba as equals. He will just set dictatorial demands while strutting his (in his mind only) yuuuge balls on twitter.

    The entire world is going to suffer greatly thanks to traitorous republicans and their moronic followers.

    ‘They need to be dead and buried’: Legal gadfly plans to use recount to ‘finish the Clintons off’

    Conservative legal activist Larry Klayman plans to challenge recounts in three states where Donald Trump won in hopes of destroying his longtime nemeses, Bill and Hillary Clinton.

    Cybersecurity experts have urged Hillary Clinton to ask for a recount in Michigan, Pennsylvania and Wisconsin to ensure hackers had not tampered with the results, and Klayman accused her of trying to overturn the election results.

    “We need to finish the Clintons off, legally,” Klayman told Newsmax TV. “They need to be dead and buried, legally, because they’re going to come back like the Wicked Witch. A house needs to be dropped on her right now.”

    Klayman and his group, Freedom Watch, hope to intervene in the recount as his previous group, Judicial Watch, did in 2000, when the conservative group conducted its own tally of Florida votes during the Bush-Gore presidential election.

      Hillary Clinton didn't do a thing abnormal or something not done before throughout history in agreeing to the recount, which she did not institute!

      Why isn't the media covering that factual information?

      Trump is blowing it all out of proportion and the media is helping him AGAIN! Trump does not know his political history. Recounts have been done often throughout the years and Hillary Clinton, having her attorneys present, is and has been done before!

      Fuck Donald Trump! And, media folks - get your shit together. Research, write and publish the facts in all the newspapers nationwide. Stop listening to Trump and following his lead!

    “The news divisions are now stating that it’s a lie,” Behar said. “Like, now they’re saying ‘with no evidence,’ ‘it’s not true.’ Which is what they should have been doing all year when Politifact said he was lying. But now they’re starting to say, ‘This is a lie, this is a lie, this is a lie.'”

    Co-host Whoopi Goldberg was similarly annoyed by Trump’s unfounded conspiracy theorizing.

  13. He's a liar, he's a bullshitter, he's a narcissist and a sociopath. He's shallow, but wants immediate gratification. He'll openly blackmail opponents. He's confusing the hell out of me. I don't know how he got this far. I thought I knew sociopaths, but this is more like a bull in a china store. Maybe he's just too audacious for people to grasp.

    Trump is too hateful, nasty, racist and ego driven to ever succeed! Plus, he's not bright enough to compete against President Obama who would always be about ten steps in front of him!!!

    I hope he is shoved out of the White House in good order once the majority get their shit together throughout the country and stand against him! Down w/the SOB! I can hardly wait to be a part of the pending disruption even though I'm in my 80's!

    Melania Trump attorney threatens lawsuit over Barron autism video made popular by Rosie O’Donnell

    The wife of President-elect Donald Trump has retained a lawyer who is threatening a lawsuit against the creator of a YouTube video suggesting that her son has autism, reports TMZ.

    According to the website, attorney Charles J. Harder is asking that the video, posted by James Hunter, be taken down and that Hunter issue an apology. In a letter from the attorney obtained by TMZ, Harder said that the video implies the 10-year old is autistic which the family insists is false.

    The video was posted days after the election and suggests that the youngest Trump might be autistic based upon video clips of his actions.

    Comedian Rosie O’Donnell came under attack after tweeting about the video, writing: “Barron Trump Autistic? if so – what an amazing opportunity to bring attention to the AUTISM epidemic.”

    The letter notes that Harder isn’t threatening to sue O’Donnell, but warns Hunter the video — which has been viewed over 3 million times — must be removed or the family will take further action.

      Good grief. Donald Trump and Co. thinks that everything can be solved by threatening a lawsuit. In an interview some time ago (I don't recall where I found this information), Melania said that her son had his own all white apartment on a separate floor because he wants to be surrounded only by white. He also, presumably as a small child, scribbled on the walls - not good with all that gilt. She said that he does not like any kind of mess and that he keeps his white bedding and his room very tidy. She was the one being interviewed. I guess she was willing to let readers come to their own conclusions. I was left wondering what the boy's father's problem was that he didn't want his child living in close proximity to him.

  23. Mr. No Diplomatic Experience thinks he can do a better deal on anything ever.

    What are the chances he will be so outrageous and make plain he is so unfit and such a danger to this country before the electoral college meets that even more electors will not be able to bring themselves to vote for him?

    They need to just shut up and vote their conscience, not declare publicly and resign to be replaced by a Deplorable.
