Then I remember that all happened nearly 80 years ago the US education system is garbage. Edit: Well then, I guess we are just openly saying "we are going to fuck up everything in the middle east". Its almost refreshing in its clarity. If Congress ever had the will to take back executive power, their moment has come. But who are we kidding, that means they would have to make decisions. | ||

Here's the original report. Quoth the Spicer: Russia is an island on this...[North Korea and Iran are also disputing the attack and] this is not exactly a happy-time cocktail party of people you want to be associated with. | ||

(If you were curious about why she sort of vanished). https://www.washingtonian.com/2017/03/07/katrina-pierson-what-is-she-doing/ | ||

I remember those. I mean, okay. First, i really, REALLY wouldn't want the job as white house speaker under trump. It's bound to go sideways at some point, there's no running from it. But boy, oh boy, will Spicer have a bad night tonight. Of course, mistakes are bound to happen, but this is neither the first time, nor was it a "slight slip up". The speaker of the white house is not able to form coherent sentences after getting called out for saying some dumb, thoughtless crap for half a minute, to then clarify four times, to then clarify the clarifications for a fifth time, while telling the world that he doesn't want to stand in the way of trumps efforts to destabilise the region. You can't even make that up, honestly. I sincerely feel sorry for that guy. | ||

His career is maybe over, but probably not. But even if it is, his life can only improve from here. | ||

Though the likely reason is the same one as for why nobody is using nukes in their wars right now. If you start using them then the other side will as well and you really really don't want that. | ||

If you start using them then the other side will as well and you really really don't want that. Yeah, the Nazis didn't use their gas capabilities on soldiers. Mainly because of the fear of repercussions, they had pretty much the deadliest gas available at the time. Which possibly could've even stopped the normandy landing. He would've, if he knew that the C weapon capabilities of the allies were not even close to what he assumed it would be. On the bright side, he is likely rich and could make a fortune writing a book.

I agree, i could live with being "that idiot" if i had like 8 or more digits on my bank account - but for some, it might not be. Still.. Wouldn't want to be him right now. Especially considering that trump won't be happy that he touted out the destabilising thing. He doesn't strike me as a "pleasant" superior. | ||

Investigations for Russia ties, starting an international feud with Russia, and now Assad is eviler than Hitler. Just another ploy to distract from the Russia ties IMO. Spicey falling on the sword for Trump senpai as a distraction | ||

edit: and no. I don't think this is a ploy to distract. That's way too far fetched. Especially considering that Spicer constantly fumbles and stumbles through those meetings. | ||
