Swamp water from a fire hose
Last week and over the weekend, we found ourselves drinking swamp water from a fire hose, again.
In the space of mere days, our dangerous president, Donald Trump, tweeted that he was about to bomb Syria. “Get ready Russia,” he warned. Then he said he was not about to bomb Syria. Then he said he wouldn’t talk about it.
A gnat has a greater attention span.
On Thursday Trump told the White House press corps there wasn’t a timeline for NAFTA talks. But he also told them a deal is “getting pretty close.” Then he said a renegotiated deal on the North American Free Trade Agreement (remember we pulled out last year) with Mexico and Canada is probably “weeks or months away.” And he said he’s willing to “renegotiate forever.” Really, Mr. President, which is it?
