Taking a job is meaningless if you can't figure out what's required at a bare minimum. Talk is cheap. Passing tests could be expensive but worth it.

Now if there were an Employment Manual he could have avoided wasting people's time having to rescue the papers and tape them back together.

The ones who are responsible for GREAT EVIL in the world? Ought they not be investigated too and acknowledged for it?

In fact those so anointed are honored and show up for the ceremony. Good natured fun I expect. A lousy performance in a movie, TV show, Stage Play hurts no one. It isn't a matter of life or death. It's just good clean poking fun at lack of talent. Lighthearted. It offsets Oscars and Emmys and Tonys. We need to offset a NOBEL PEACE PRIZE with something. What?

She is a business woman in her own right. She does need to ride anyone's coattails. I think it is insulting to her personally. Do you too?
OF COURSE there will be a Trump Tower in North Korea on one of those "beautiful" beaches where nuclear missiles have been tested. Testing will probably be moved to elsewheres.

Could you manage on earnings like that? Everyone should get a job as advisor to the prez and take no salary. It's a patriotic thing to do. Serve your country out of pure love for it. SIGH

The nature of the attention isn't relevant. Do you understand people like that?

There will be further future meetings on this topic No dates are set for them. No time limits are set. No idea what the mechanics will be. No idea if what Kim means by "denuclearization" is what the US means. Besides photo ops and attention what did the US walk away with? Anyone know? Future intentions alluded to and agreed to by two well-known liars means little. Doesn't it? less

Besides Kim wants him to stop and he wants to please Kim.It is alleged that Don has agreed to a softening of sanctions. We did not hear him say that. It was leaked.Of course when two liars go into a room with only interpreters who knows what was said or agreed to? There were no aides there. There was no one there to record the conversation. So we will never know what transpired UNLESS we can buy an interpreter to tell us. Probably if we did that would cost the life of such a person. We KNOW Kim murders folks who don't kiss his arse and we're pretty sure King don would find a way to "destroy" such a person. So only 4 people know what went on inside that room. Two are silenced or will be punished severely. Two are LIARS whom you cannot trust. Pity. :( less

How could it not? SIGH. I wonder what other things "they" will come up with to dissuade folks from coming here? I don't know why anyone wants to be here any longer. There is nothing of value here but corruption and greedy and despair. Why go out of your way for that?

Every major city in every country will have one. They will be as ubiquitous as McDonald's fast-food joints or Starbucks. Why shouldn't a guy who wins an election and his family make out like bandits and get richer and richer and richer day by day by day?

There is no logical sensible fair honest jusitifiable reason for it. That's like going out to dinner and leaving without paying. Then getting into your limousine and have your driver take you home to your gold-plated mansion.

Strong intelligent women cow him, shame him, overwhelm him so he trashes them. But admiring Turkey's Erdogan, Duterte in the Philippines, Russia's Putin and of course his newest bestest "friend" Kim of North Korea. They have all committed atrocities against their own people. Torture. Murder. They operate by fear/intimidation. A coupla years ago when he was waxing poetic about how much he admires such men and was reminded that they murder torture their own people...he shot right back that America has murdered people too. He patterns himself after them. Wants to be one of them. Is he well on his way to be or is he? less

Don said when asked about human rights and the 100,000 North Koreans currently held in gulags don said he thought they would benefit most from the summit meeting. Yes he did. He actually did say that. I bet they're cheering in those detention centers where torture is the entree every day. :(
Kim, don, vlad. Others? The goal is to prove once and for all whose is bigger. Whose "what" you ask? The "what" is an FITB and you get to do it any way ya wanna.
