I see King Piggy the Sticky-fingered has covered himself with glory again. Doesn’t smell glorious, but then his snout is probably ruined from decades of horning fat rails of Adderall. His handlers should’ve maybe slipped a little more Thorazine into his Panda Express before letting him anywhere near a hot mic. Or his phone.
While Xi Jinping was making sly references to an Athenian historian’s musings on the Peloponnesian War, Piggy was squealing about how Sleepy Joe is to blame for — well, for everything, including the sinking of Atlantis, the crucifixion of Christ, and the 2008 real-estate bubble — and how “hot” the United States is now after he drove it into the ditch. “Hot” as in “on fire” and with nary a firefighter in sight.
The feeble old fool probably thinks “The Thucydides Trap” is a “Star Trek” episode, the one where Captain Kirk boinks the green gal.
Or maybe he thinks Thucydides is the antibiotic that saved him from one of the venereal diseases that constituted his Vietnam.
Shit, I’ll bet he can’t pronounce Thucydides, much less tell us anything about him. Probably never read any Barbara W. Tuchman, either. No Helen of Troy foldout.
Mad Blog Media 
Glad I’m not the only one thinking about Tuchman’s book in the context of current events. Also, when I read in that Journal article that Xi alluded to the Thucydides trap, the first thought that came to me was that I doubted Trump had the foggiest idea what he was talking about.
I guess now we have to start thinking about making our own bicycles as well as our own iPhones. They must be bunkering up in Taiwan.
I wonder how many denizens’ first thoughts were TFG has no idea who Thucydides is/ was?
I’ve worn out a dozen pair of eyeballs rolling ’em at the dumb shit this pendejo says. And that’s just this week.
You could insult this numbnuts to his face and as long as you were smiling when you said it he’d think you were kissing his ass.
“Wow, dude, ballroom bunker, well done indeed. What genius! Hasn’t been a work of defensive military engineering like this since the Maginot Line!”
If you mentioned Maginot Line to this doofus, he would probably think it was a hit of French cocaine.
Meanwhile, if you’d like to see what a couple of smart fellas have been up to, catch the latest episode of “The Late Show with Stephen Colbert,” in which he and the legendary David Letterman have a few pointed yuks at the expense of CBS.
If you can’t/won’t watch anything on CBS, you can get the gist of it at Digby’s place.
When Colbert is gone, so are we. Fuck a bunch of CBS.
Good night and good luck muh fuggers. Fitting tribute to CBS.
Making peace with China? Establishing good trade relations with China? What’s in it for me, he asks.
Nothing this incompetent tool does surprises me. If happened more that 10 minutes ago, he is not concerned with it. He doesn’t care about anyone. Neither does congress or the supremes.
