Baby Trump's bigly summit with his BFF Kim went bust and he even have No Korea a major concession in giving up denuclearization for nothing. What an idiot!

Poor Trump he's getting destroyed at home by Cohen's testamony, and eaten alive by an advasarial press corps, but he icing on the cake today was the laughable ineptitude of the House Republicans on the committee. It was must see TV where Cohen held much of the world rivited to their Tv's while Trump's photo op with props sputtered in the dust.

Democrats are raising the specter of still more investigations that will blow the lid off Trump's criminal enterprise setup. In fine mettle, the House just shot down his fake emergency scheme.

Looks like the foreign policy distraction ruse didn't quite work out as anticipated, and Trump ditched Kim -- ain't nrequited love a bitch! -- in a huffy snit that will likely become an international incident. Now Trump's so pissed he's packed up his tent show early and is dragging his sorry lard ass back home to seek comfort in petty, vengeful tweets against the world.

What a day!

7. Not entirely sure if your title is sarcastic or not. If not, I actually think you're partly right.

Yeah, no "deal" was reached, but I'm sure Spanky would have milked the cameras for longer if enough eyes and ears were tuning in.

Have held the Cohen hearings a couple days later, so I think you're right. It's all about all eyes being on him. What a Kardashian.

He was just waiting to see what the former lawyer said about his boss and he called him a con man. King Kim doesn't want to do business with a con, he had to save face, just in case some of his devoted subjects* got their hands on the video.

I'm going to stop myself short of praising a dictator, but he did the right thing. Something, prestidigitation will never do.
