    Get. Off...My...Plane....

    An iconic moment has just arisen in China which, I fear, cuts against the prospects of the sanity caucus of the electorate going forward...

     

    On the fucking tarmac (where, in case you weren't watching, the Teabaggeristas are ever vigilant for insult) under the very wing of Air Force One,the following:

    The press pool was brought under a wing of Air Force One where the pool was supposed to stay behind a blue rope. However, a member of the Chinese delegation began shouting at White House staff, demanding the pool leave the arrival scene.

    A White House official said Obama was our president and Air Force One was our plane and that the press was not going to move from the designated area. The Chinese official responded, "This is our country."

    I think it's time for HRC to internalize Bill Maher's riff on letting her inner bitch fly, because this is looking like a pissing match.

    I believe her dick is bigger than Deadbeat Don's (I know she has bigger balls).

     

    She's gonna hafta own it.

    Sorry, polls have been unable to identify sufficient numbers of the "sanity caucus of the electorate" to exceed the margin of error in any sample, no  matter how numerically and/or geographically distributed.

    Carry on.

    Jolly ... No biggie...

    There's no money to be made from a "sanity caucus of the electorate."

    So, Esteemed Ducky, were you on the inside advising HRC on the politics of "who's got the bigger dick ", and allowing for a 100% credit to her for a metaphoric monster, how might she best capitalize on the serial rudenesses.

    I am informed by folks who know better that we actually kinda need the Phillipines to offset China[s island building enterprise in the South (you know who but we won;t use the word) Sea.

     

    Are there no frames that make this Trump's fault, for showing his ass on a dailly basis?

    Jolly ... but but but . . .

    You haven't heard?

    Duterte later expressed regret over his remark about Obama. /snip/ "He expresses deep regret, regards and affinity for Obama and the U.S.’ diplomatic partnership with our nation...”

    Just send Duterte this clown as new ambassador...
