Trump just finished a presser before stepping onto AF1.

I couldn't listen to him too long without puking, but I did catch the last minute, where he said he was the greatest president ever, that he's not just blaming Obama for doing nothing about North Korea, he's blaming every other president, because they're not as great as he is.

Essentially he didn't get squat regarding nuclear disarmament. He said he got Kim not to test missiles and nukes, but that decision had been made by Kim months ago and had nothing to do with Fat Donnie.

Talks broke down because Kim wanted sanctions lifted entirely. Trump complained about how expensive it was for the U.S. to be in the Japan-South Korea-U.S. alliance, which freaks out the other members.

He talked about how many real estate development opportunities are available along the beautiful beaches, and how much money there was to be made.

Basically, the trip was a waste of time. It showed a complete lack of planning on the part of the State Department, which should have had a deal worked out before IQ45 set foot in Hanoi. It also showed the depth of ignorance of Trump, who honestly thought he could walk into a major negotiation with a canny adversary and wing it on his own.

Did I mention that he said he was the greatest president ever? Multiple times?

I feel the bile rising in my throat, so I gotta run to the bathroom.

Fat Donnie will just tell himself he's so great that he's outgrown the White House.

Is so desperate to con people into thinking he's great for making us all more unsafe from this corrupt criminal dictator Kim, and we still could be hit by one of his nuclear bombs anywhere in the USA . Kim's busy making more nuclear bombs now for his stockpile.

No more, no less. And now, that anus-brain idiot is returning home to tweet his ample ass off.

Makes me sick to look at photos and video of him, and to hear that creature’s embarrassing braying about his greatness.

How can anybody with a functioning mind (one that’s open yet critical), not be repulsed by the words, thoughts and deeds of 45?

I guess Fat Donnie needed to have him close so he can ask him what to do.

Fox Entertainment is staging this “presidency,” led by the reactionary Neck With a Face.

45 didn’t get the popular vote (by a long shot), and Hannity lags in the ratings. But these two scofflaws are calling the shots for the entire country.
