The Class of President Obama when compared to Trump - Trump Era

Daily Mail: Reports " Commander in Tweet! Barack Obama's Charlottesville comments become the most popular Twitter message of all time as Donald Trump is attacked over his soft line on Neo Nazi thugs  "

Lets Get Real:

In the tweet President Obama quotes Nelson Mandela on race, the views should have been those that President Trump should have used the first time when he reacted to the tragic events in Virginia, the former President speaks for all those can not stand racism or any other form of hatred, from religion to gender.  The question is WHAT NEXT, will the issue go away, for a time, yes, there is always North Korea or tax cuts a major part of the Trump Agenda.  Race is and will always be a flashpoint in US culture and politics, that was one of the failures of the Obama Administration, the first African - American President could not resolve an issue that is a tragic aspect of modern America. 

Donald Trump on Race in the US - The Trump Era

BBC News: Reports " Former Presidents George HW Bush and George W Bush have called on the US to "reject racial bigotry, anti-Semitism and hatred in all forms". "

Lets Get Real:

The Republican Leadership should tell President Trump to resign or he will be impeached.  The VP, Mike Pence then could take over and try to repair the damage that Trump has done to race relationship in the US, under President Obama the first African - American President, who tried to be President of ALL the people, one would think that Obama would have handled this tragic mess in a better manner.   It is really time to tell the base it's OVER, and that Trump was not fit to be President.

The Left Wing Guardian and Brexit - Post Brexit

Guardian: Has an Editorial on the Brexit plans for a new Custom Union with the EU, the article states the following, " But it represents a political victory for the chancellor, Philip Hammond, in his efforts to save the government from the prime minister’s insane readiness to take the UK over a March 2019 cliff edge with the EU rather than confront the Daily Mail. It means Mrs May’s earlier claim that no deal with the EU is better than a bad deal is now in the dustbin of history. This is something to welcome in an otherwise confused document. "

Lets Get Real:

IF the left wing Guardian is having a go at, it must be alright, there will need to be a transition period, one would not expect World trade to stop because the UK has left the EU.   The question is how LONG, it should be a few years,  there needs to be an end date, it can not be used to keep the UK in the EU.   Also the UK should not pay a farthing to the EU, as stated they need us more than we need them, the EU Countries will know be dominated by the Germans and their Bank.   The Kaiser would have loved the idea.

The UK post Brexit - UK and the EU Talks

Daily Mail: Reports " 'It's a fantasy': David Davis clashes with top Eurocrats after he unveils plan for temporary customs deal and 'streamlined' borders after Brexit  "

Lets Get Real:

The EU should be grateful that we are offering them such a good deal, they export more to the UK than we export to the EU.   The EU has to learn that the gravy days of the UK paying billions to the EU is OVER, the remainers have to get the FACT that we are out of the EU. The act as if they are the elite, what they think is more important than what the people voted for in 2016.   As to giving cash to the EU, this blog is totally opposed, they owe us, we have given them billions over the years and for what, nothing much but bent bananas.   This is the time for the UK to stand up for itself, the EU needs us more than we need the EU. 

North Korea BLINKS - North Korean Crisis

BBC News: Reports " North Korean leader Kim Jong-un reviewed plans to fire missiles towards the US Pacific territory of Guam but will hold off, state media said. "

Lets Get Real:

This blog was right, North Korea blinked, if you think CNN or BBC News will praise President Trump for his rhetoric then you are wrong or very naive, the tough language from POTUS put the fear of God in to the North Koreans.    The liberal elite will argue that NK is less crazy than Trump.   The interesting question will come when the US and South have their joint military training, will NK react to this development. The North Koreans have paid a heavy price for their ICBM's launches, one does wonder what kind of private pressure China placed on NK.   The heat will go away from the NK crisis for now, when will it return is any ones guess. 

Another ICBM Test by North Korea ? - North Korean Update 2 - North Korean Crisis

Daily Mail: Reports " Is another North Korean missile launch imminent? Kim Jong-un disappears from public eye in echoes of the last two tests  "

Lets Get Real:

The North Korean Government would be crazy to try another launch, with Trump at home in political difficulty it would be a way for Trump to change the subject, if they launch a missile at Guam, all bets are off.   This blog is still keeping to the view that the CRISIS is over, there are sane Generals around Trump, while in North Korea one assumes Kim Jong - un wants to remain leader of North Korea.  Thus we are at the end of the sniping, North Korea will back down while in the US Trump should be quiet and keeps his attention on twitter. 

South Korea on North Korea Crisis - North Korean Crisis

BBC News: Reports " South Korean President Moon Jae-in has called on his US allies to help prevent a war, amid worsening tension over the North's nuclear threat. "

Lets Get Real:

One can postulate that North Korea will find a reason not to launch missiles at Guam, and that they two sides will just go on sniping at each other, from news reports we have learned that US and North Korea have had secret talks, one can only hope that the US made it clear that any missile launch or a nuclear test would be a red for the Trump Oval.   In other words the crisis is OVER for now, of course this blog could be wrong, very wrong, but it has doubts.  The US will have its finger on the trigger should North Korea go MAD, but even the North Korean leadership is not bat out crazy.
