It's rather jarring to hear 45 (didn't catch all of it) touting all of his "accomplishments" on this Asia trip, and then turn on MSNBC and everyone is saying his trip was a disaster and it accomplished nothing.

Surely there is some truth in the middle somewhere? I'd like to hear if anything was truly agreed to or signed on this trip. Was 45's speech all lies?

if there were any agreements signed (and I doubt it, after all they have demolished most of the State Dept and other agencies) I'd like to hear about them because he keeps going on and on about how "disastrous" the previous administrations agreements were.

Don't just ridicule him for nothing. Take what he said and throw it right back in his face.

when he spoke and dropped after he was done.

Lots of raw meat for his knuckle dragging base though.
