WE SHOULD BE WORRIED



Hey, it's been a lot of fun watching American politics over the last year and Donald Trump's systematic erosion of the advancements that the Obama and even the Bush and Clinton's administrations have forged because - they are just fucking stupid Americans OK?

But, there have been some worrying decisions made by that 'old lunatic' Trump like the withdrawal from The Paris Accord and the Trans Pacific Partnership Agreement, the schoolyard bullying of North Korea,  the naive dealings with most every other world governments, the ignorance of the existence of many countries in the world and many, many other dangerous miscalculations.

The latest is Trump's decision to relocate the US Embassy from Tel Aviv to Jerusalem thereby flying in the face of seventy plus years of sensible American diplomacy (yes an oxymoron) and potentially reigniting conflict in the area is the most dangerous yet.

What is wrong with this man? Critics and defenders both have hinted that he may be a very clever strategist who niggles at age-old problems and forces a solution but, given the 'lunatics' past history of disastrous business dealings, there is the possibility that what is staring us in the face is correct: He is disturbed and maybe ill.

Watch this:       THAT OLD LUNATIC
