Per Dump: "NATO is old and fat...it's sloppy".

Strange, I could use the same description for Dump himself...couldn't describe him better.

This trip is destined to be a complete disaster, once again undeservedly embarrassing the country this jackass is supposed to represent. If it's important to be friends with Russia and North Korea, it's even more so to be friends with those who are - or perhaps now, were - guaranteed to have our back. That's what NATO is all about, and Dump is too ill informed to know.

It's time someone pushed back on this bully, be it Pompeo or Kelly, before one of the world leaders takes one for the team and stands up to him and tells him off royally. He needs - no, deserves - to face-to-face be put in his place.

Projecting his own qualities on to other people and things. That is a perfect description of him. "Old and fat...and sloppy." Does nobody in that party see the ridiculousness of his accusations?

Yep. That was my first thought before I even got beyond the subject line. I doubt anyone from his party sees the ridiculousness. Projecting their own faults, failures, and behavior on others is their M.O. It's so natural to them, at this point, they don't even notice they're doing it. As I always say, if you want to know what the republicans are up to, just look at what they accuse others of doing.

Who cares if it is fat and sloppy?

NATO keeps the peace among neighbors who fought with each other over and over until 1945 and then the formation of NATO.

I'll omit the pot/kettle metaphor, but behold old, fat and sloppy at NATO today:



His jacket, which doesn't seem to match his baggy, ill-fitting pants, is unbuttoned because he's too fat to button it, his tie is too long, his hair is weird and his skin is orange. This is not someone who should ever utter the words "old, fat and sloppy."

Doesn't even look like it is his.

Looks like he is either squeezing one out into his Depends or trying to teleport himself to the loving aura of Putin.

I guess he hasn't found a new Hope Hicks to make him presentable.

NATO has helped to prevent such a catastrophe from happening again.

He's talking out of his ass again.l
