    Rand Paul, LOL.
    Yes, Trump made the right decision calling off the strike but why initiate a response in the first place? it's inflammatory to say the least. Then calling it off shows a chaotic approach to his thinking and planning. Not a confidence builder in our allies' eyes nor in the eyes of our adversaries.

    He should have kept the Obama deal and we wouldn't be going through this roller coaster ride. We could've been negotiating other deals such as their rocket development and aggression in the Middle East.

    Apparently if Iran attacks us Trump is planning to kill John Kerry and Barack Obama.

    Masterful, and highly effective is an oxymoron in this instance.

    POTUS Trump continues to win the pot every time he plays cards with these slow-witted posers.

    Varney: Trump 'dominated' the G-7 summit 'like no other president has done in years'

    By Fox News Staff | Fox News

    Fox Business Network's Stuart Varney has a message for Americans, after a deluge of criticism of President Trump's performance at the G-7 meetings in France.

    "No matter what you read and hear from the media, this G-7 was all about Trump re-aligning the world -- reshaping the world economy with America's interests first and foremost," said Varney on Fox Nation's "My Take."

    CHINA ANNOUNCES IT SEEKS 'CALM' END TO TRADE WAR, AS MARKETS TANK AND CURRENCY HITS 11-YEAR FLATLINE

    After President Trump's news conference, at the conclusion of the summit on Monday, CNN's Jim Acosta said, "I think perhaps one of the biggest headlines coming out of this press conference that we just witnessed here in France is that the President would not be pinned down on this question of climate change."

    Varney said that analysis misses the point. "Trade was the headline issue ... A deal with Japan -- they will import a lot more of our agricultural product. Britain gets a major trade deal after Brexit, and there's dialogue with Germany on car tariffs as well, but the most important -- China," stressed Varney.

    At the press conference Monday, President Trump said, “China wants to make a deal. And I tell this to President Xi [Jinping] who I really respect ... I told him very strongly, I said 'Look, you’re making $500 billion a year and stealing our intellectual property…We can’t make a 50-50 deal ... If it’s not better, I don’t want to do business.”

    Varney believes that it is time for America's European allies to get on board with the President's agenda. "Europeans are frankly scared of America. Their economies are sinking. They've entered the fantasy land of negative interest rates. Their money is pouring over here, and they just don't know what to do. My advice -- jump on the Trump train and quit whining about Iran and climate change," advised Varney.

    This is compete and utter bullshit. It’s laughable if it wasn’t so critically important that we have a fucking clown for a President. He’s the laughingstock of the world with zero respect. He’s put America in an absolutely horrible state. He was handed a great economy and all he had to do was not a single thing and it’d still be great. He’s fucked over America. He is clueless and can’t string together a full sentence without butchering it.

    calvin natt, you have an alarming case of TDS. Get help before we read about you. I hope you don't take your irrational anger out on your family.

    You are spouting delusional nonsense, obviously disproven by facts, history, China's tanking economy, European Union's imminent collapse, America's jobs/employment/GDP/WallStreet/USTaxRevenues/minorities' record successes/strengthened relationships with old and new allies, or any other objective measure of success.

    Trump is the best POTUS since Eisenhower and will soon eclipse even Ike's accomplishments for America. It's indisputable in any sane conversation.

    Trump’s fabricated China phone call is ‘a serious escalation of his lying’ which bodes ill for America: reporter

    On Monday, President Donald Trump was once again busted in a lieafter claiming the government of China called him and asked to restart talks over his disastrous trade war.

    But this seems more egregious than a typical Trump lie, wrote CNN contributor Garrett Graff — as an attempt to mislead world powers about the state of international diplomacy, it could have serious consequences for America’s ability to conduct discussions of any sort, especially in an international crisis situation:



    Trump’s tariff hikes on Chinese goods in 2018 alone cost consumers $32 billion, threatening jobs and economic activity across the country. But there is no sign China is interested in negotiating for a deal to end the standoff.

    Former Secretary of State Rex Tillerson has suggested that China doesn’t even need to negotiate with the United States — they may decide to just step back, let Trump’s tariffs ruin his own economy, and negotiate with the next administration when people vote Trump out over the losses.

    You aren't supposed to say he's lying. He's "trotting out a strong game".

    Trump also claimed that Melania has met Kim Jong Un.

    She hasn't.

    I knew it wouldn't take long to hear this again. Just had to wait a few hours until the next lie.
