Perhaps he was worried about his trip to China and could not sleep. But the dementia was undeniable in 3 hours of late night ranting. More than 50 posts railed against Obama, NY Times, and the supreme court – he even included a a doctored image of himself on a $100 dollar bill. So hours before meeting Xi Jinping he lost the plot – again. My, how Americans must be embarrassed by their President.
So when he should be studying diplomatic and scholarly papers on China’s recent growth in economic and political power he is frothing at the mouth. Given thathis default modus operandi is to bully and threaten tariffs the world will watch meetings with China’s leaders with baited breath.
Meanwhile the rest of the world festers quietly. Israel continues as a rogue state killing innocents in a slaughter resembling parallels with the Jews of Nazi Germany. Attrocities continue in Sudan and sub-saharan Africa. Cubans continue to suffer under Trumps cruel driven blockade. At home Labour call for an investigation into Polanski’s council tax problem (which would almost certainly cost more than any monies owed. Farage continues to face questions regarding his dodgy finances and lifestyle – the lastest is a non-submission of details regarding a ‘gift’ of a helicopter flight. A survey of 500 millionaires revealed that three-quarters would be willing to pay more tax. It is a no brainer actually – either the millionaires pay for health insurance for their workers and private security for their homes and work places, or they pay more tax and ensure that society is better for all!.
Next rant – charities, but saved for tomorrow.
