The news is that you are destroying that stability as we speak...big mouth, bloviating self-centered maniac!

I will reiterate: The biggest threat to our national security and to peace in the world is: Trump!

That must have been a very short part of the meeting. Trump can't respond to congressional inquiries about what the hell he thinks he's doing, but he's got plenty of time for off-calendar meetings with the folks who dismembered Khashoggi.

a stroke, a brain hemorrhage - any one or all three. Give him some friend chicken and three scoops of ice-cream with two slices of chocolate cake.

Now that you've totally screwed up the Middle East forever?

You both were probably plotting on how much money you could put in your pockets through this whole mess you've created.

As long as Trump is in office, there will be no stability in the world!

Idiot!

reneging on the nuke treaty with Iran
instituting new sanctions
assassinating and martyring the number two official of the Iranian gov't
pissing off the Iraqis
igniting a nationalist fervor in Iran
threatening war crimes
further alienating our European allies
abdicating US influence in Syria, and Iraq without a treaty in place
allowing ISIL to resettle.

basically turning over influence of Iraq to Iran

and turning over the influence of the ME largely over to Putin.

Trump is the stupidest SOB to ever draw a breath in the Oval Office.

The first thing he makes mention of is trade? Money is all this clown cares about, everything else is secondary, and I bet he's funneling a lot of money by proxy to some account overseas in either Switzerland, the Cayman Isles, or some other place with lax laws like Russia. He's been manipulating the stock market ever since he got in. Geez
