Perhaps the further we are from the USA we can either see it more clearly or maybe it is not as it seems .

IMO Trump will make 2nd term - prove me wrong

BM

I... I should prove you wrong? You endow me with too much power. But here, I see the younger people rejecting and fighting against the old status quo (and Trump is it, even though he pretends not to be).

Do you like Trump and spam? I do not like them Sam-I-am.. Would you like them in your house? No, not as much as a louse".  LOL * with apologies to Dr. Seuss

Send us your "thoughts and prayers", as the politicians like to say, after massacres. LOL

You asked what Bml gets out of Trump? 1st because he now has a jewish family member and a great new best friend, Netanyahu. Kushner his omniscient son-in-law will lead them all to glory.

Palestinian Foreign Minister Riyad al-Maliki has described the anticipated US Israel-Palestine peace plan as a "consecration" of Palestinian suffering."The US 'deal of the century' is the consecration of our century-old ordeal: no independence, no sovereignty, no freedom, no justice," al-Maliki said on Friday at the London-based Chatham House think-tank."And if they do not think that this...
