Poor, poor wittle Jared!

On Thursday evening, the White House senior adviser Jared Kushner arrived at the Winder Building, in Washington, D.C., to attend a meeting, reportedly focussing on nafta negotiations, at the Office of the United States Trade Representative.

[...]

Wearing a slim, dark suit, his neat-as-a-pin hair like an incoming prep-school freshman’s, he tried the door’s handle a couple of times; buzzed the intercom, waiting for a response that failed to come, then buzzed again; pulled out his phone and appeared to scroll through it, as useless as a man stood up on a first date, and then lifted it to his ear, speaking inaudibly. Finally, after what seemed an eternity, the door opened, and he was ushered in. Curtain!

Couldn't happen to a more appropriately smug little weasel! :D

Quite symbolic of what the future holds for the Trump Clan the moment Trump leaves office whether by being bounced out of it on his ass with impeachment branded on his forehead or as a loser of losers in his failed re-election try.

I suppose we'll soon see reporters waiting outside the bathroom to see if he dripped on his shoes.

"Confusion and misinformation reigned in Washington, as Freeland headed off to meet Lighthizer late Tuesday. But this shabby drama is reaching its denouement and in the next day or so, Canada will discover the extent of the shaft."

""Confusion and misinformation reigned in Washington"

Just another ordinary day under Trump. I cant imagine what its like for Canada and Mexico to have to negotiate deals with a petulant child and his army of kleptocrats. Lose lose lose for everyone.

I hope Trudeau doesn't cave, it will all get redone in 2020 anyway once our groper in chief is gone.

It doesn't matter if Trudeau caves or not. The result will be better for the United States regardless of what Trudeau does or doesn't do.

They're Canadians, so who the hell cares, except the maple syrup gobblers? ;)

Roughly $673 billion in 2 way trade. I'd say that a few folks on both sides of the border probably give a shit. At least the ones smart enough to understand the importance of the trade between our two countries.

Edit: had the number wrong.

I have been reading that people in the White House are working overtime behind Trump's back to keep him from fucking up everything. How does that inspire the confidence you seem to have that he's making things better. The word from the people who work with him seems to be he's crazy and crazy dangerous. What if the Russians nuke us and he says, don't respond, Putin is a good man and we deserve it because of God knows what, some pee pee in a bed? A Russian plant can't ever be good for the country, or not the one I grew up in. This is even crazier than Liberals are. Is this all about the new Black is Orange? I'm lost?
