Donald ("And you've weaponized 'Just say no.'" ) Trump is saying: "I've told everyone I'm going to bring up human rights, so I will. . . . But human rights or not, I've got to hand it to you, Rodrigo. You did a great job. . . . First you vetted the press (extreme vetting, I might say) and since then there's not been a single charge brought against you. . . . It's win-win as far as I'm concerned. . . There, I've brought it up."
*************************************************************
Above CAPTION based on Trump's meeting with Rodrigo Duterte, the butcher of the Philippines, as reported by NPR:

"What's it like, Rodrigo, to order an assassination? . . . I mean, sure there's a part of you that feels bad, but it also must be some kind of a kick!"

that you took the time to match the votive holders to my fake tan. People think I don't notice little stuff like that, but I do; I'm very observant. I'm probably the most observant person you'll ever observe. But anyway, police brutality? I'm ok with it."
