Is Donald Trump FINISHED ? - Trump Era

BBC News: Reports " Ex-national security adviser Michael Flynn has pleaded guilty to making false statements to the FBI about meetings with Russia's ambassador weeks before Donald Trump became president. "

Lets Get Real:

In one word POTUS is FINISHED, it is just a matter of time before Vice - President Pence becomes President, it really depends how badly Trump wants to stay as President.  Let's recall the Watergate break in took place in 1972, Nixon lasted in till 1974 when Ford became President.  Those with a brain within the Trump Administration will try to move their support to Pence, the Cabinet will be wondering who will stay in a Pence Administration.   This blog made a mistake in 2016 in predicting that HRC would win and who would be in her Administration, in this case this blog would place a heavy bet on that PENCE will be President before the end of 2018.

A New US Secretary of State ? - Trump Era

Telegraph: Reports " Donald Trump 'plans to sack Rex Tillerson and make Mike Pompeo secretary of state within weeks' "

Lets Get Real:

At the end of the day, a President of the United States must have confidence in his Secretary of State, if for nothing else as to allow the Secretary to his job!! Of course in the modern era foreign policy comes out of the White House, with twitter it is more of a problem, a President like Trump causes massive problems for the State Department, they like clear communication, diplomacy not the ravings for a bored President.  The President should be able to chose his own Secretary of State and sack him or her if they are no longer of use, thus the point with Tillerson.   D.C will be full of gossip to see who shall be the next Secretary of State. 

Democrats still have problems with Bill Clinton and 1998 - Bill Clinton

Guardian: Reports "  Gloria Steinem on her Bill Clinton essay: 'I wouldn’t write the same thing now'..The feminist icon spoke to the Guardian about her 1998 op-ed, which drew criticism: ‘what you write in one decade you don’t necessarily write in the next’ "

Lets Get Real:

Democrats and those on the left still have a HARD TIME when it comes to being critical of Bill Clinton and his personal actions, the above article finishes the thought that policy is more important than personal actions, by that theory Democrats could or would support Jack Ripper as long as he was for abortion.   The Democrats if they are to go forward must axe the Clinton link to the Party or they face going down to defeat in 2018 and 2020.   The liberal elite are as toxic as the far right, GROW UP LEFT. 

The Moral leadership of the Presidency is too important to trade for some policy, no matter the left or the right, neither Bill Clinton or Donald Trump should have ever gotten to the Presidency. 

The UK Government, DUP and Brexit - Post Brexit

BBC News: Reports " Brexit talks may jeopardise DUP-Tory deal "

Lets Get Real:

The UK Government has to be clear to the EU and the Irish Government that Northern Ireland goes the way of the rest of the UK, that the North can not be treated as part or separate from the UK, there can not be two deals when it comes to the North.   The DUP will bring down the Government should PM May try to please the EU and Dublin, the UK population of the North has made it clear it wants to remain part of the UK, thus for the sake of democracy of both the North and UK the EU deal has to be about the whole of the UK not parts.

57 Billion to the EU - The Shame of the British Government - Post Brexit

Guardian: Reports " UK and EU agree Brexit divorce bill that could reach £57bn..Britain agrees to settlement in attempt to move negotiations on to future trading relationship "

Lets Get Real:

The HARD BREXIT MPs of the Conservative Party should reject this blackmail of a deal.  In essence we are giving EU neary 60 billion pounds just for a trade deal.   That sixty billion could have helped with a HARD BREXIT, this is nothing more than appeasing the moaning remainers of the Conservative Party and half of the Labour Party.   One can only hope that Conservative MPs call for PM May to go if this is the best she can come up with in talks with the EU.  The LEFT WING media, as is the Guardian and BBC News will be overjoyed, they can suckle again at the chest of the EU, while the rest of the UK has to go through austerity.  IF the PM was tough she would walk away with honour and tell the EU to get stuffed and force Labour to vote to give 60 billion to the EU, this is shameful day for the UK. 

Hillary Clinton on the North Korean Crisis - Trump Era

Fox News: Reports " Hillary Clinton used a conference in Beijing to blast both President Trump and the Chinese over their stance toward North Korea — saying it needs to soften up soon before things get out of hand and nuclear war breaks out. "

Lets Get Real:

This easy for HRC to be critical of President Trump, if she had won in 2016 would she be so easy on North Korea, the first woman POTUS, one has doubts.   It could be that HRC is thinking of running again in 2020, this time as more of a LEFT WING candidate, what else left for her to do, my suggestion that she run for the House seems to have fallen on deaf ears.   The Oval Office should no nothing with North Korea, this is just NK wanting attention, if you give them that they will make money demands, as they have in the past.   The Oval Office should only react if North Korea launches a missile that gets close to Guam or the mainland US.  One last reason that the Oval Office should react should NK test a above ground nuclear missile, that would be a stark escalation, the best thing to do is just ignore North Korea. 

North Korea FIRES Missile - North Korean Crisis

Daily Mail: Reports " BREAKING NEWS: North Korea fires ballistic missile, claims South Korean military  "

Lets Get Real:

This is North Korea showing off and wanting to get attention back on itself, it looks from early reports that it could have gone over Japan but there is no confirmation.   As long as no missiles are in range of Guam the rest of the World can rest easy.   Any perceived attack on Guam, thus the US would see the US react.   This is a developing story:
