SHORT RIBS AND RANDOM THOUGHTS, Feb 20, 2018
From CNN Business: A new book by Andrew McCabe says Trump didn’t believe US intel reports about a North Korean missile launch because “he thought that N.K. did not have the capability to launch such missiles. He said he knew this because Vladimir Putin had told him so.” Well, thats all we need in the White House, a dummy who believes what Putin tells him. Don’t think about it too long- it’s pretty scary. This week also revealed that Trump is such a jackass he ASKED Japanese PM Abe to nominate him, Trump, for the Nobel Peace Prize. Abe apparently complied, being too wise to argue with a fool. Trump has also taken to trashing Jeff Sessions, his first supporter in the Senate. Don’t expect loyalty from Trump. For loyalty, you need a dog and he doesn’t like dogs either. |

While we’re at it, have you heard about the plan to Demolish the COW PALACE? The iconic COW PALACE? Everyone has a Cow Palace story. I attended the ’64 GOP convention there, the Goldwater convention.
