America's pathetic, needy, malignant narcissist president begging for the Nobel Peace Prize -- again:
Trump: "I called Putin yesterday. I have a good relationship with him. I solved 7 wars*. I thought this would be an easy one, but it turned out to be the toughest… I hope President Putin is going to be good…And I hope President Zelensky will do what he has to do. He has to show some flexibility also."
*It was SIX wars this past Monday afternoon. When did he "solve" the 7th war? Monday night?
PS. When will what's left of MAGA wake up and understand that Trump is not right in the head?
Look at the Saddamification of the once dignified, historic Oval Office, now gilded in cheap gold geegaws and painted styrofoam medallions plastered on the walls and mantel. Trump has turned the once dignified and historic Oval Office into what looks like an 18th century bordello run by an orange-painted madam.
DIGNIFIED:
THE SADDAMIFICATION OF THE PEOPLE'S OVAL OFFICE:
IMO, it looks like King Midas threw up in the Oval Office.
If the Oval Office is a reflection of the man who now occupies it; then, I suppose, it is fitting that it looks, cheap, tacky, ostentatious, and vulgar.

Shaw, you missed the huge photo of the Trump shooting at Butler that also now hangs in the White House...
Hagiography at it's finest.
As for Trump's wars... six, seven, eight or nine? Who knows? At this point, President Cankles is just saying incoherent stuff to be saying stuff. Off the campaign trail, he's a hot mess.
Arrested development childness. Reminds us of the old child mantra -
Liar, liar - pants on fire, nose as long as a telephone wire.
M. Gessen writing in the NYTimes about Trump's brag about ending wars:
"And that brings me to the number “six” — something Trump kept invoking on Monday, when he claimed that he had resolved that many wars in his first seven months in office. The conflicts he is taking credit for resolving seem to be the ones between the Democratic Republic of Congo and Rwanda (little evidence that it’s over); Egypt and Ethiopia (ditto); India and Pakistan (there is evidence of very little U.S. involvement); Kosovo and Serbia (same); Armenia and Azerbaijan (ditto, but the sides did go to the White House to sign an agreement); Cambodia and Thailand (U.S.-backed talks resulted in a cease-fire, not necessarily an end to the conflict); Israel and Iran (Trump claims to have prevented a nuclear war by dropping bunker-busting bombs). That’s actually seven. But also, none."
LOVE that doctored photo from the film The Shining!
Thomas Friedman, NYTimes:
“So, I end where I began: Trump and Witkoff are not wrong to want to stop the war and all the killing. And it is not wrong to be in regular communication with Putin to do that. I am all for both. But to stop this war in a sustainable way, you have to understand who Putin is and what he is up to. Putin is a bad guy, a coldblooded murderer. He is not the friend of the president. That is a fantasy that Trump chooses to believe is real.
Once you understand those things, they lead you to only one conclusion: The only sustainable way to stop this war and prevent it from coming back is a massive, consistent, Western commitment to give Ukraine the military resources that will persuade Putin that his army will be chewed apart. The United States also must provide the security guarantees that would deter Russia from ever trying this again and encourage our European allies to promise that Ukraine will one day be in the E.U. — forever anchored in the West.
Putin’s punishment for this war should be that he and his people have to forever look to the West and see a Ukraine, even if it is a smaller Ukraine, that is a thriving Slavic, free-market democracy, compared with Putin’s declining Slavic, authoritarian kleptocracy.”
But how will Trump ever learn that truth when he basically gutted the National Security Council staff and shrank and neutered the State Department, when he fired the head of the National Security Agency and his deputy on the advice of a conspiracy buffoon, Laura Loomer, and when he appointed a Putin fan girl, Tulsi Gabbard, to be his director of national intelligence?
