USA Gets No Respect From Philippine’s President

by Jack

MANILA, Nov 2 (Reuters) – Philippine President Rodrigo Duterte chided the United States on Wednesday for halting the planned sale of 26,000 rifles to his country, calling those behind the decision “fools” and “monkeys” and indicating he might turn to Russia and China instead.

Duterte’s tirades against the U.S. are routine during his speeches and he said on Wednesday he once believed in Washington, but had since lost respect for what is the Philippines’ biggest ally.  END

I say let him turn to Russia or China, who cares?    This is an old game and we played it too many times during the cold war.  We spent billions upon billions trying to buy the friendship of dictators around the world, many of whom were more evil and corrupt than the communists we tried to compete with. And of course it never worked, it was just money down a rat hole.  And what have we learned from that long and painful experience that tarnished America’s reputation?  Absolutely nothing…and you know we will do it again at the first opportunity.

    Now … who does this remind me of? Ah!

    He and Trump would get along famously; Trump will admire his kindred spirit and sell him all the arms he wants … or maybe … they’d just call silly names back and forth and make both their selves look like pathetic jackasses.

    Wouldn’t that be fun?

      The alternative has been a president that prances around the world like god’s gift to peacocks, who cozies up to enemies like Iran while they, in turn, mock him and take us for an expensive ride. The alternative has been a president that disrespects our allies and friends. The alternative has been a president who appoints a Secretary of State, Hillary Clinton, who committed egregious ethical and legal deeds while enriching herself…a woman who gave a big assist to the destabilization of the ME and caused the rise of ISIS.

      The alternative has been a man who signed the worst healthcare law in history and has overseen an economy over eight years that averaged less that 2% growth…a record….and doubled the already sizable debt.

      The alternative has been a man who, with practice, can sound intelligent when speaking but, when off the cuff, sounds illiterate.

      The alternative has been a president who has divided the nation pitting rich against poor, minorities against whites, and blacks against police officers…shameful for the first black president!

      As for the future alternative, she is a shrew whose own foul mouth is legend and who speaks of half the country with great disrespect…basket of deplorables. This is a woman that passes herself off as a champion of women and yet when her misogynistic horn dog husband sexually used and abused women she demeaned, maligned, and threatened them to protect her own and her husbands ambitions. This woman is an unethical proven liar of epic proportions.

      At this point anyone would be “more fun” that this pair of colossal losers.

    I want our Congressman to take pictures and inventory the Lincoln bedroom and count all the silverware… if Hillary is elected. I don’t want them stealing our stuff again.
