#BREAKING: Lawrence: “What an abject ignoramus. That is so painful. Donald Trump obviously has NO IDEA how many Americans were killed in the war in Vietnam that he managed to avoid by getting a doctor’s letter saying that the feet that he spent the rest of his life playing golf on, just weren’t capable of
ever wearing combat boots. Donald Trump thinks hundreds of thousands of Americans were killed in Vietnam…We…lost 58,220 Americans who were killed in Vietnam…”😳
Donald Trump ran for President claiming he would be the one to drain the swamp.
Instead, he built a fortress around it, protected it, and fully became king of the swamp.
Lindsey Graham has an F rating for his conservative voting score card and loves war almost as much as Mark Levin.
This is repulsive.
He needed to inconvenience hundreds of thousands, if not millions of people, & ruin the experience for lifelong fans so he could fall asleep in the luxury box.
It's the perfect image for the sloth & the corruption, the decadence & the rot that has descended over America.
I’ve been thinking a lot about the extraordinary outbursts of the President of the United States against female journalists... well, actually against journalists in general and journalism. But it feels like he saves his most childlike behavior and irrational language for female reporters, calling them all kinds of names that kids in kindergarten are given times out for. It’s stunning to me to witness such behavior from any leader, any CEO, any person of influence or importance. I’ve never witnessed someone like this raging, this weekend with @meetthepress host @kwelkernbc, just last week in the Oval Office with @cnn’s @kaitlancollins, calling women stupid or piggy, telling them to “smile”, calling them darling, demeaning their credibility. Every good man should denounce this behavior. Every person should be able to stand up for their colleagues and say “No more.”
Imagine this man screaming like this at your daughter, your wife, your sister, your mother... would you stand for it? No, you wouldn’t! And neither should any of us. It’s unacceptable and undignified. Period. End of story.
French Presidential Candidate Jean-Luc Mélenchon:
I propose that we discuss and organize with the Chinese because they are reasonable people.
They are not gringos ready to pull out their Colt every five minutes to exterminate whoever displeases them.
They are reasonable people. So let's talk with reasonable people.
You cannot whitewash conduct that violates FIFA regulations and breaches the United States’ host obligations merely by praising yourselves.
Why do you not say that visas were denied to a large portion of the managerial and executive staff, technical advisers, and others who are an integral part of any national football team?
You have now escalated the deliberate and discriminatory treatment against Iran’s national football team to its highest level.
By extending your whimsical hostilities against the Iranian nation into the realm of sport, the U.S. government in practice is depriving Iran’s national team of its right to play in the World Cup under normal conditions and without undue pressure and stress.
This represents the worst possible form of politically biased interference in sport.
FIFA must hold the US accountable for violations of its rules and for the discriminatory treatment of Iran's national football team.
