saying, “It's increasingly clear that there was and continues to be a
conspiracy to discredit Trump and ultimately remove him from office”:
Well, if it is so, I think many would now welcome its
success.
Trump has proved an unqualified disaster, and I say that as
one who a year ago hoped he had something, at least in a few areas of
international affairs, to offer.
But he does not, at least anything anyone would want.
America’s Extrajudicial killings are running at record
levels, an unforgivable activity for a state claiming loyalty to human rights.
We have open aggression in Syria continued with America
troops and equipment occupying places they are not welcome.
We have a dangerous and unnecessary confrontation with North
Korea. And a gigantic fleet placed, as part of that confrontation, near China
is a serious provocation to a great power.
There is no end of the hostilities to Russia, which now include
open talk of arming Ukraine, an insane provocation and something guaranteed to
bring no peace.
There is absolutely no end to the utterly false claims of
Russian aggression, Crimea having chosen its own fate as surely as did the
Falklands, Gibraltar, or Kosovo.
We have increased intensity of trade restrictions with
Russia, a brainless set of measures only making everyone poorer at a time of
economic difficulties.
We have an American UN Ambassador who is literally a
world-class embarrassment, an ignoramus in knee-high suede boots with a very
big mouth and absolutely no judgment.
We see Trump giving the Nazis now running Israel everything
they want and demanding nothing from them towards peace or justice.
There is Trump and his ridiculous Ambassador threatening the
UN, time and again, to get what it wants on Israel's behalf.
We have the spectacle of Trump featuring his damned,
incompetent daughter, Ivanka, at the G-20 as though she were an important world
figure. He looked like the world's greatest dumb-ass father pushing her into
photos with other world leaders. After all, they all have children, too, with
whom they could pull the same brainless stunt.
And, in several matters, Ivanka has demonstrated
incompetence comparable to Nikki Haley. She belongs nowhere near the Oval
Office.
No, Trump is beyond a disappointment.
And he is either a grotesque liar - on a par with Tony Blair
- with all the things he campaigned for or he is world-class coward for backing
down on everything almost as soon as he took office.
I'm definitely inclined to think the latter in view of his
earlier background.
No, there'll be nothing missed but a lot of bluster and
bullying if he goes.
