Indeed. You can't really negotiate with Kim - you can just contain him. He will just carry on playing one president after another. US presidents come and go. He's in for life.

Hatters gonna hate.

Maybe China is tired of Nuclear bombs being tested on their border and with urging from America, SK & Japan, threatened to cut NK oil imports.

Weird watching Americans wanting their President and SOS to fail.

Worst Nightmare. But can always hope it doesnt work out.

If Obama met KJU they would give him a peace prize no matter what happen

For the record I never thought bad of Obama

If Trump meets KJU and NK agrees to de-nuclearize, Barack Obama will get his 2nd Nobel Peace Prize.

Trump Meeting Is Just What Kim Jong Un Has Always Wanted

 

[enlytend]

The past Presidents (Clinton, Bush, Obama) were invited as well and didn't take the bait to help legitimize the regime and treat them as an equal. Kim is just playing Trump here. Using his ego against him, "I did what the other Presidents couldn't do" type of deal.

Exactly.
Oh - and he publicly second-guessed his secretary of state again. Just hours before Tillerson said he was not going to NK. You realize what a bunch of idiots that makes us look like? KJU is probably ROTFLHAO.
Hope someone remembers to bring a ruler or a tape measure to that meeting ...

That's the "new" liberal way! They have no other game plan. I might fall off my chair if @JB Lions @enlytend or @Kate ever issued one positive statement about our president! It's weird and disheartening! Obstructionism is the new liberal mantra. Don't vote for anything Trump wants, including tax cuts for most Americans, and a path to citizenship for undocumented dreamers. Mind boggling!

CNN Includes Caitlyn Jenner in ‘International Women’s Day’ Celebration
CNN asked Caitlyn Jenner, a biological male, to supply a quote for its celebration of “International Women’s Day.”
For its March 8th International Women’s Day discussion, CNN asked women around the world: “What single thing would you change to improve gender equality where you are?” One of those asked to contribute was former Olympic champion, Kardashian TV cast member, and, biological man, Caitlyn Jenner.

The cabler invited celebrities, athletes, politicians, businesswomen, and activists to offer their pearls of wisdom about the day meant to praise the contribution of women across the world.

So typical... Pathetic Fake News CNN invites a Fake Woman "Thing" for International Women’s Day...

I'm glad he's continuing Obama's streak of job creation, good numbers. Too bad he's going to screw it all up with these tariffs and other bad decisions. As you can see below, Obama was doing good numbers as well.

Job Creation
First Two Months of the Year
•2018: +552,000
•2017: +459,000
•2016: +360,000
•2015: +478,000
•2014: +356,000
•2013: +472,000
•2012: +581,000
•2011: +226,000

Let me pull @Theo Goodman Unemployment is actually going back up, from 8% to 8.2%. It was 8% back in Oct/Nov, now 8.2%. Or 8.6% Not seasonally adjusted, depending on which chart you like.

https://www.bls.gov/news.release/empsit.t15.htm

Now, I always use the 4.1%, just like all media/politicians but it was funny when Obama was President and the number kept dropping from a high of 10% down to 4 something. I would always post it, Theo would always get mad and post the U6 numbers, the real numbers he said.

I keep waiting for him to give me a reason to make one....

And btw, I’m a pragmatic and moderate centrist who has voted republican from time to time. I’m also from our current presidents “home turf” and know his local history very well. There’s a reason he didn’t do well with voters around here. Grifters don’t usually change because they get a new job or a new title.

45 had little to do with the tax bill. but his pressuring the repubs to push it through ASAP led to hasty and shoddy legislation. Had they taken more time and maybe negotiated across the aisle they could have come up with a better solution for everyone.

Ps - if he was on his own show he would have fired himself within the first month.

ITALY: Attacked for Filming in a No-Go Zone
Tommy Robinson was attacked in Rome for filming in a migrant zone. Check out the sweet right hook at 3.05. Well done Tommy... the bastard deserved it. Wish all reporters were like you

Italy... time to send all this scum back to their African sh*tholes

Kate... disliking my Post for calling that thing, a "Thing". Hey Kate I also know how to give dislikes. Next time it will be an eye for an eye...

I never watched that stupid Apprentice show lol Not even one minute. (And I tend to like reality tv shows) I never watched it because it was about Trump and forever knew what he was like.




Now I did like Marla Maples lol



But I hate guys that drop their long time wife and mother of their children for a hotter younger one, so I didn't approve of the Marla marriage

But like an NBA girlfriend, Marla made sure to have a golden baby. So we now have socialite Tiffany

If the meeting between Trump and Kim is anywhere but South Korea or TMZ I will be surprised

Would be Epic if Kim came to DC

S Korea sounds like the most logical place and DC the least logical, but, it could also happen in China or in a small island in the Pacific.

I detest Reality TV Shows, but will make a sacrifice and watch them for 5-10 minutes, just to confirm how detestable they are IMO. The Apprentice also got about 5-10 min. As an example, I only discovered years later that the detestable Piers Morgan was in his show.

DOW JONES WARNING: World stock markets heading for 40 PERCENT crash JP Morgan chief warns
A plunge of this scale would effectively erase the recent gains for US stocks - the S&P 500 has increased by 38 percent over the past two years, while the Dow Jones Industrial has rallied a staggering 45 percent over the same period.
https://www.express.co.uk/finance/c...rld-stock-markets-JP-Morgan-market-correction

Not sure about 40%, but a plunge of about 20-30% sounds realistic at some point in the not too distant future. A few sharks with inside information will make a lot of money, but the "small fish" majority will lose a lot... as always happens.

After the divorce Marla and Tiffany have wisely kept their distance from the epicenter. Last I heard, Tiffany was still in law school, so there’s that.

They’re going to be on TMZ ? Lol. Would be appropriate! I think maybe you meant DMZ?

 

[johname]

Was thinking the THE version and must be too used to seeing TMZ

I read many times Tiff really high up in knowing the rich people her age. Also remember her law schooling as an excuse not to be too into the election running around
