    Interesting to see how he spins the GM cost cutting, car industry well overdue a shake up (although GM plan to focus on gas guzzling sports cars & SUVs) but his tarifs & trade war have cost US car makers $bns.

    Most of these factories are in the rust belt states he took from democrats, too.

    I see the Donald has weighed in against the Brexit deal, claims it might endanger future trade deals with the US. I wonder why that might be?

    Yeah that and Manefort just screwed himself on his.deal so it sounds like something going to coming along.

    Too many fires to put out around the place, not sure how the orange idiot will keep up.

    That Manafort story is very revealing about the Mueller probe. It suggests they can prove the opposite of what he was telling them.

    What is Gary Mabbutt doing in that pic with Trump and Farage?

    Now he wants to start a state controlled news network

    https://www.newsweek.com/donald-trump-replacing-cnn-propaganda-network-1232065

    If he stopped caring about his vanity for 5 minutes he’d maybe see how all his ideas so far just seem to come straight out of the Nazi party playbook

    Is that a real tweet? The global warming one?

    Sadly so. It is embedded, you can click through to the original on twitter and read the replies. Thankfully many people (on twitter at least) seem to have a better handle on climate change than he does.

    He has now also said he “doesn’t believe” the findings of The Fourth National Climate Assessment produced by his own government:
    https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-us-canada-46351940

    Seems literally anything that conflicts with his views is “fake news”, even when his own government produced it.

    What a child.

    Now he wants to start a state controlled news network

    I like the people pointing out that “Voice of America” is a thing that already exists.

    More ‘nothingburger’ news..

    https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2018/nov/27/manafort-held-secret-talks-with-assange-in-ecuadorian-embassy

    Not sure how Manafort thought he could have a clandestine meeting in the Ecuadorian Embassy. I’m sure all comings and goings (and possibly a bit more) are closely monitored  by the British security services . Still, must’ve been important if he didn’t want to commit it to email.

    I’m sure it has nothing to do with the decision to void his cooperation agreement and send him straight to jail. 🙂

    Cue a volley of ‘whaddabout Hilary’s emails?’ from the orange buffoon.

    Oh, and I notice the Guardian piece was filed from Quito…

    Sounds like the Ecuadorians may have had an ear to the wall. Let’s hope they taped it.

    Between the Mexican anti-migrant protests (big **** lol @ that) and their rampant government and societal corruption, I’m not surprised that. The US and Mexico seem quite suited to each other.

    I was under the impression that proof of collusion now looking more likely than ever.

    Line from Russia to Assange straight to the transition team, now that Farages chum Ted Malloch’s been fingered by the people Muellers flipped.

    And as we know that Farage visited Assange at the same time, we can only hope that Nigel gets extradited when the time comes 😁

    Bit behind the curve here but, if you haven’t already done so, please read Bob Woodwards book, Fear. It really is remarkable. I’m half way through listening to it on Audible, a few times I’ve had to rewind and listen to something twice as I thought I misheard it first time round due to being so out there.

    Cohen to plead guilty about lying to congress

    It has been previously stated that Trump considers his tweets to be official Whitehouse announcements.

    So by retweeting that meme is The Whitehouse officially accusing his opponents of treason, a crime punishable by death?

    Plus, coincidentally, Deutsche Bank’s money laundering activities getting some overdue attention. Lots of documents seized.

    Seth Abramson thinks it’s all kicking off now – with a picture of a Chicago firm which works with Trump on property deals raided and shut down by the Feds today.

    If he’s right, hold on to your hats…

    TBH if I’d done work for Trump I’d be running a mile at this point!!

    I might skip the Muller book but the Netflix series should be awesome

    So the wrap up from all the stuff about Cohen and Manefort was that the revelations about lies, changes in testimony etc. came just after Trump and his team had made their written submissions to Muller there, detailing the truth (well their version of it) the whole truth (well sort of) and nothing but the recollections of a man who can’r remember the lie he just told

    Trump: “Vlad mate, could you invade the Ukraine, I’m in the sh!t again”

    Putin: ” It will cost you”

    Trump: ” The usual?”

    Putin: “Yep”

    Again, things have changed and I don’t think that Trump will manage anything so useful or cordial. (especially if he leaves in the back of a police van)

    Trump more likely to steal toilet seats and sell them on eBay.

    Well never let it be said I don’t give Trump credit for what he is achieving, he is responsible for draining the swamp

    https://www.nytimes.com/2018/12/01/opinion/sunday/under-trump-the-swamp-is-draining.html

    Most of them in his employment or associated with him, and it’s only his brazen attitude to ignoring the rules that is causing others to find them and prosecute them.

    Something strange, twitter has him retweeting his own tweet there

    I suspect he posted a dud link/url to an unregistered domain and someone generously registered it for him 🤣

    That Tweet is now many hours old yet it hasn’t been pulled or edited. Unbelievably it is still linking to the same message. Perhaps not an accident after all.

    The importance of spacing. Because he hasn’t put a space between ‘G20.’ and ‘In’ Twitter has assumed it’s a webpage ‘g20.in’ and is looking for it. Seems someone has created something for it to find… Bravo!

    Squeaky bum time for the Trump gang

    Good tweet from Seth Abramson yesterday that said this is exactly what Meuller would do if he had some big revelations to come

    In fact our elite is rotten and deserves judgment, yet Trump’s mix of kleptocracy and kakistocracy is worse.

    From the ny times, first time I’ve ever come across the term ‘kakistocracy’, a government run by the least suitable individual. Must remember that term.
