"Putin & I…"
The POTUS seemingly has no idea about what kind of career Putin had before he entered politics.

“The Power of Illegal Immigration to Manipulate Popular Sentiment”
Roger Stone, a longtime adviser to Donald Trump, is credited, along with fellow political consultant Sam Nunberg, in coming up with the idea to build a wall across the U.S.-Mexico border.
Donald Trumpās plan to build a wall along the U.S.-Mexico border did not come from security analysts following years of study or through evidence that a wall would reduce illegal immigration. Amazingly, for something so central to the current U.S. president, the wall came about as a āmnemonic deviceā thought up by a pair of political consultants to remind Donald Trump to talk about illegal immigration. […]
Inside Trumpās circle, the power of illegal immigration to manipulate popular sentiment was readily apparent, and his advisers brainstormed methods for keeping their attention-addled boss on message,
writes Joshua Green, author of Devilās Bargain: Steve Bannon, Donald Trump, and the Nationalist Uprising. […]

Enemy of the People
The "HERO" thing seems to be a bit overstretched. Heros don't bow to those who are responsible for the slaughtering of #Khashoggi and for getting rid of witnesses by means of death sentences issued by kangaroo courts. pic.twitter.com/FHsE1uBkt1

Kangaroo Court Trial
Trial against the alleged killers of #Khashoggi starts today. Death penality should help to get rid of 5 witnesses. If their relatives and lawyers address any involvement of MbS, they would be in trouble. MbS' business partner Trump looks the other way.https://t.co/yTpBzVHv8D

The Christian Right
You mean the American Christian right. I've traveled a lot around the globe and I can say with certainty that what's going on in America isn't Christianity. Idolators is what we have in America. pic.twitter.com/49IKvYy8xY

A good tool to put differences aside rationally is the Deming Cycle (https://t.co/P1r9mHxoTV ). With regard to the consequences of the #Brexit, applying Ā»planādoācheckāactĀ« is the least you have to do if you don't want to deliberately do harm to the citizens of your country.

Would Julia Hartley-Brewer have complained about the Queen too?
How about calming down? That helps to rethink.https://t.co/kBfvHmeh6X

Heroic Failure
On 2019-03-09 I saw this tweet:
Regardless of his politics, this rant from George Galloway says so much about Brexit. Nostalgia for lost youth and sentimentalism about the past mixed with nationalistic hubris.
