President Donald Trump's First Negotiation Was A Humiliation

Maybe you're capable weathering whatever storm this bastard may brings, but a lot arent. There are a lot of people out there who just trying to get by. Your lust to see others suffer sickens me.

The people who will suffer the most are the people who voted for Trump. Sometimes you have to deal with the consequences of your actions, as shitty as that may be. To the people who didn't vote for Trump, and end up getting caught up any potential recession or economic dip, it sucks, but the people to blame are the ones who voted. Hopefully, if that happens, some of them may learn from it and not make this sort of mistake again.

I need to find his quote where he says he would be improving relationships with Mexico like never before.

The USA are going to have to get used to more embarrassment, mockery and humiliation for the next couple years, no doubt.

And we deserve every ounce of it. I wish there was a TV station showing people all over the world laughing at America and Trump 24/7.
 
I would argue that CNN is stepping their game up too. Even if only a little. Jake Tapper went in on the Trumpster the other day. Was pretty magnificent.

Tapper's really about the only one on CNN who has consistently been anti-Trump, so that's not a big change really. CNN will do all they can to keep that 'both sides' shit alive.
 
It's a good video, although I don't entirely agree that forcing a meeting to be cancelled can never be a valid negotiating tactic.

It's valid, but O'Donnell's problem with what Trump did was that the meeting was cancelled publically. He said that if another president threatened to cancel a similar meeting through private diplomatic channels, the other person would have likely tried to keep the meeting open just to hear them out.

Donald's problem is that he's playing with his hand facing the wrong way so everyone can see it.

O Donnell with that sentence can really screw Trump. Now it will be easy to prove how bad he is:

"Trump is so bad at negotiating that he met with Putin and removed the sanctions: what did the great negotiator get in return? Nothing."

No wonder Bannon called the press to tell them to shut up; Trump is fixated on what the media is saying about him and is likely to fuck up bigly as a result.

nbc just let this man spit straight fire for 10 minutes??

He spits fire for an hour every weeknight.

He wrote books about police brutality and worked for Sen Moynahan for many years. He wrote for the West Wing. He proudly calls himself a socialist.

I'm pretty sure he marched in the 60s as well.

The man is a treasure.

The other countries are going to alienate us while Trump's admin alienates everyone who isn't white living here.

Its crazy that almost everything said about Obama and his presidency from Republicans and Trump is some type of projection. They would always say that Obama made the US look weak and was the laughing stock of the world. Yet here we are were. Trump has done this in one week.

That was fucking brutal.

But not as brutal as what Americans did to their own worldwide credibility by electing that orange polka dot as POTUS.

i want to see mexico and canada start making some trade deals with china to fuck with trump. or even just have a meeting of leaders and not include trump to piss him off.
 
People keep calling out CNN for bad reporting, and while there certainly still is some of it, they've definitely gone on the offensive after getting called "Fake News" by Trump. Jake Tapper in particular has been a vocal critic, essentiall calling Trump and the administration liars on his show earlier this week.

Yes, they could be better, but they're nowhere close to Fox News.

Oh my gawd, that ending, I was not ready for that. Shade! I couldn't stop laughing, but man is that sad, we're going to realize how important it is to have a competent president after Trump I feel. He better learn fast, or have someone else do the heavy lifting.

Putin will be chewing bubblegum as he run circles around Trump. Or maybe he's the one that's pulling the strings in the first place, and the call is to make sure everything is on track. I'm sure CIA or something will be listening in on that call, right?
 
That was a great video. Is Lawrence always this good? No offence to Americans but your media is normally class act shite. I'd happily watch more of him.
 
Yikes, he went in. This is refreshing and needed. I am tired of crazy right wing apologists infesting CNN for "balance". Even Joe one morning this week was going in on Trump.
 
As an American I truly hope the rest of the world shuts us out as much as possible for the next 4 years. We need to truly feel the repercussions of electing this orange trash monster.

I'd like to start a movement that speaks on behalf of the 54% of the country that DIDN'T vote for this madman so that we as citizens are not thrown under the same label as Trump and the rest of the US.
 
It really is a joke how much faith people put into the negotiating skill of, of all people, Donald fucking Trump. The guy's barely able to finish a single sentence, what makes you think he has the finesse to close out trade deals with other countries.

I would like more journalist to use the phrase "President Trump lies/lied...".

It's always "President Trump says a lie" or "President Trump wrongly states" or something along those lies.

So, more use of the word "lie" as a verb from journalists.

dude sure knows how to make noise with his mouth while saying fucking nothing

Okay, here is the thing to that, if it was any other president, his rambling would make even less sense, he talks vaguely about Lincoln doing something "big" that would have been thought "impossible 20 years before", that's only one thing he'd possibly be talking about: Abolition of Slavery, which im pretty sure 90% of the world knows is what Lincoln is known for.

Here's the kicker, Trump vaguely talks about lincoln doing something big, well recieved and universally concidered good, but holy fucking shit, is he trying hard to not convey the message that "lincoln was great because he freed black slaves", like can't fucking get more trump than that, he can't bring himself to talk about something good that happened to black people back then.
 
Good, I'm tired of the softball. Trump wants to brag about his abilities? Then we tell him when he's an abject failure. He cries about the media no matter how softly they handle him, so no point in holding back when he falls flat on his face.

Trump though he had this shit figured out when he toddled into office, and he didn't have a single fucking clue. All he's done so far is wreck things. And to destroy takes no talent.
 
If leaders throughout the world stonewall Trump (sans Russia) he will use the military to take what he wants. This is a dangerous game to play, pushing a narcissistic authoritarian to the edge. They can't 100% appease him, but I'd be warry of spitting in his face. Trump will go to war with Mexico if he's pushed hard enough.

He's never been a good negotiator, and I don't see how anyone who looked at his career critically can think that. He's a good promoter of brand, but that's it. Every single other aspect of buisness or government he is fucking awful at, and has caused him and others ruin many times. I hope more world leaders refuse to meet with him. They need to be strong and not accept a bully like Trump. All negotiating with him would do is give you a worse deal than you already have.

I'd like to start a movement that speaks on behalf of the 54% of the country that DIDN'T vote for this madman so that we as citizens are not thrown under the same label as Trump and the rest of the US.
Almost half the country didn't vote at all, ensuring his victory. Only one in four Americans actually did the right thing.

A man truly ahead of his time
Hahaha
