It very much bothers me that people do not understand respect for other cultural customs, not to mention over 30 years of diplomatic relations. America is so freaking ignorant sometimes. Kellyanne Conway said something last night about Trump voters - its not what offends them but what affects them. That is such a…

It’s a big fucking deal. Chinese people can be insulted over non-verbal conduct such as how you sit and how you pay attention. This is totally next level shit.

I would not underestimate China like that. Also, this type of behavior is especially egregious in many Asian cultures. While we Americans might shrug it off, its a big fucking deal

China wouldn’t nuke us over this... now our economy? Yea, THAT they’d consider nuking when they decide to call in that little trillion dollar debt.

In the current idiocracy, the ability to read three pages of text in a row without falling asleep would make him the smartest person in the administration.

And it prevents an uprising of mutant Australian spiders.

“You read... and in particular, newspapers? Tell us more. We’re intrigued.”

I mean - look at what happened with Obama and the steps from his airplane when he went to China. That showed how prickly they are - and Drumpf mocked Obama over it.

It’s a tricky subject, the points of view are often incongruous.

It’s also a matter of understanding how other cultures function, even if certain things seem “silly” to us. Trump is acting like the loud, ugly American in Paris who won’t eat anything but McDonald’s. He has no idea how other cultures function, or how people in other cultures think.

And why doesn’t it start the “constitutional crisis” Drumpf claimed would occur if Hillary won over her supposed conflicts of interest??? Where are the adults who care about the US in all of this?????

We broke the congress phone system making calls to the house oversight committee (chaired by Chaffetz) asking them - demanding them - to investigate his finances and his conflicts of interest. Chaffetz - who wants to start a new investigation into Hillary’s emails - has said that he wants to give Drumpf a chance and…

I’d like some examples of figuratively unconstitutional items.

This is men. No where in his pissbaby rant did he mention consent. “Do you think it’s wrong to send people pictures of yourself?” Yeah, if they haven’t asked for them. “Are porn stars creepy” No, they consented to those videos being distributed to the public. And the public isn’t being forced to watch them. The…

He SHOULD have been briefed. But reports say he’s been turning down the State Dept. briefings before meeting/talking with foreign leaders.

He’s actually not a bad looking guy, but yeah, the posting pics of an ex, that’s a deal breaker.

I’m glad that the law has finally stopped looking the other way with this bullshit.

Okay, so I’ve seen a lot of people shrug and say “so what”?

He doesn’t even bother to attend his intelligence briefings, so there’s no way for anyone to tell him how much of an idiot he’s being. His whole administration will be governed by the seat of his pants.

So let’s imagine I got hired for a job. I interviewed, it went well enough, and I got offered the position. “You can start in two weeks! Welcome to the team!” Imagine in that two weeks, I ran over my new boss’s dog, set the office on fire, slept with my colleague’s wife, and sold some insider knowledge to my new…
