(ron) Sarah Huckabee Sanders: “I want to be remembered for being transparent and honest.”

Folks, she's being sincere, much like Charles Manson wanting to be remembered as a great spiritual leader, or Lincoln for being a lot of fun to join for an evening at the theater.

(ron) North Korea summit cut short: no agreement reached, not even a "ceremonial signing to agree to keep talking".
Best dealmaker ever. So much winning.

(ron)
US: "Don't worry South Korea, this love affair with the communist dictator is no big deal, we'd never throw an ally under the bus."

(Mike) Even though Bernie hasn’t officially announced his campaign for 2020, he’s come up with a campaign slogan which recognises his effect on 2016: “Four More Years!”

(Mike) Under Trump, the government is effectively topped up like a pay-as-you-go cell phone — every couple weeks and by white dudes still living in 2001.

[ERAFN @ethicalreport]

(ron) This conversation happened a month before Trump clinched the nomination. The House GOP leadership admitted this really dud happen between the Republican House number one (Ryan) and two (McCarthy) officials.

(ron) McConnell is adamant that he won't let the Senate even vote on a bill the President won't sign.
