Ok, time for more coffeeshop yadda. Shooting the breeze. Yapping and yawing. Trump uses fierce rhetoric to threaten Iran, but Bolton doesn’t see it as setting the stage for a deal...
Instead, Bolton takes Trump’s Iran rhetoric as setting the stage for actually whacking the daylights out of anything he wants to in the Middle-East, and then some.
So I am not surprised that Trump sees Bolton as a fairly worthless dealmaker’s team member. If Trump boots Bolton, it may make Iran talks more likely.

Ok. I am going to shoot the breeze now and it will be a layperson’s coffeeshop talk thread.
Let’s imagine that China sees the Trump trade war as a transient episode, and it hopes for a more pliant Dem President to emerge in 2020z
Let’s also imagine that the Trump re-election machine wants all bases covered, and declines to push for election security from foreign influence and interference.

Gen Luo does not understand that a large portion of the electorate in the democracy known as America are not trigger-happy to bash China. news.dwnews.com/china/news/201…
He talks as of the entire country isnprepared to bash China militarily, which is not true. This rhetoric is unhelpful for the rest of the SCS countries.
I give him the benefit of the doubt that he is addressing a limited audience, and that his remarks are fit for that occasion as a rah-rah cheerleader yell. SCS countries should not make toi much of his comments.

1) Just thinking aloud on Twitter: I just saw a long-time acquaintance’s post on FB. (We members of a digital art community). I knew she’d lost a teenager some time ago to OD.
2) She never wrote much about that loss, and we’re 12 timezones or more apart, and I didn’t pry.
3) Recently, she wrote at length about her painful loss. And she mentions that her child was not able to get proper medical treatment because of ACA. Well shebused the O’care term.

War on #Iran has been a priority for Trump’s admin since the transition.

Why the delay?

Only Internal division between Bannon isolationists and neocons prevented this inevitable“#Iraq Debacle, Part II” scenario — until the chaotic purges.

#ToldYouSo

Now the #Iraq Debacle’s sequel is nearing its release date:

“Infinite War #Iran” — featuring a familiar, returning all-star cast of characters, including Judith Miller and John Bolton.

#ToldYouSo

The night before Trump’s inauguration, I received a hysterical phone call from a friend inside the D.C. political establishment.

Why the hysteria?

This friend is Iranian-American... with lots of interesting info on Iran War plans among the administration-to-be.
