But you can have several disorders at the same time. If you are rich, wealthy and powerful enough, you get away with a lot.

He is. He thinks I was pathetic or silly for thinking that it’s a bit annoying that someone doesn’t appreciate you taking the time to correct their misinformation with facts and explaining why it is wrong etc., and wants to make a truly, truly tedious point out of it with his great wit.

This is from a Pakistani news channel.

The deputy PM admitting that he wanted a ceasefire when Pak’s airbases were hit.

So much for Trump and his grandstanding.

Would you even call it a bribe? They didn’t actually give him anything.

Yeah, I read it and shrugged. The article was very odd, claiming that Pakistan could some how influence the Nobel Peace Prize (which it truly cannot).
The crypto story also seemed a bit overblown to me…

Gave him enough to massage his ego.

It would be interesting to hear Mr. “I’ll decide on the sanctions against Russia within 2 week” (more than 4 weeks ago) comment on this statement.

Putin also says that "where the “foot of a Russian soldier steps [in Ukraine], that land is ours”, according to TASS.

Fuck sake. I see this guy write dumb shit on twitter all the time, but I did not know he was a writer for the Atlantic. This framing is fucking absurd

In Trump’s last term, he was gleeful over dropping MOAB on Iran, something he did just for the LOLs, and it was only through Iran’s incredible restraint that his extralegal assassination of Soleimani did not escalate into something really bad.

Yes Trump criticized hawkish foreign policy on his way up in politics, but not because he was against it but only because that was the stick he needed to beat up on the people standing in his way to winning. He was never consistent about this ever, and someone who thinks he was should not be allowed out of the house on their own, let alone be writing for the fucking Atlantic.

It’s the N-word. That’s a very nasty word, right? In a lot of ways, the N-word used in a nuclear sense, that’s the worst thing that can happen. And I think they were very close. But Iraq was before the N word

What’s worse, the fact that he is so stupid, or the fact that his followers are even more stupid?

Amuses me this, I have to say. It’s clever. If you don’t have self respect, this is a very good move.

Pakistan is going to give their airbases again to the US.

China won’t take that well though.

But that’s Pakistan , a mercenary army ruling a state

Trump is easily bought. Massaging his oversized ego will do the trick.
