Trump sees geopolitics as just negotiating a real estate deal
His big negotiator is a real estate lawyer with zero geopolitical experience.
He's already fallen on his face in Russia and in the Middle East.
He's as useless as was Antony Blinken.
Trump should have brought back Mike Pompeo. He was tough and had huge onions.... but sadly he has, an independent mind.

Somehow I just don’t see as a negotiator. A bully, yes. He has no nuances.
He’s a bumbling fuckwad who has been lucky his whole life.
Pompeo is a buffoon and another who just never understood nuance, he was in it for what he could get out of it. At least Blinken worked as a true negotiator.
So, Mr Policies, your man is fucking up absolutely everything?

Ok, Mr. Personalties... how can anyone fuck up more than your senile "leader" (sic) did?
When someone votes on the basis of policies one is choosing between two different imperfect sets and weighs them in a balance.
When one votes on personalities one does not give a shit that they actually do as long as one likes them,,, or prefers them to their opponent..
You hate Trump and were willing to live with open borders, DEI, insane spending, gender fluidity, over regulation, woke cancel culture, etc., etc.
Huh? Are you effin’ kidding? This guy is tanking the whole nation. Biden is on Mt. Rushmore compared
to him.
We have a extremely different notion of what is good for the country when it comes to policies.
I saw the Biden administration's policies as absolutely ruinous.
I support 70% of what the Republicans are trying to do.
Swear all you want... I feel my perspective is reasonable.
So waddaya think of Oranges tariffs, revenge tactics, deficit spending, incompetent appointments,
his public health disgrace, his Medicaid cuts to extend rich people tax breaks, his economic uncertainty and his ineptness roiling the bond and stock markets, his Ukraine policy, Putin appeasement, and isolationism? You think any of THAT is good policy?
You should be ashamed. While you complain and snivel about your own guy all the time, you also blame the other side for what you and your fellow idjits did. Sad.
Ignore laws; ruin economy, public health & foreign relations. You & the dummies are batting 0.000.

Sure, Don getting 'them' - bad browns & pathetic trans teens - was worth tanking the entire country.

YoY spending & deficit are up. Stop lying to yourself to protect your prejudices.

YTD spending is all under Nancy's legislation. There are almost no Dem policies that I don't loathe.
Whereas you probably can't/won't name a single Dem/progressive/woke policy that you do not support.
Trump losses following W & Vice playbook. Complete lack of regs led to financial meltdown.

Even more than that, a complete crisis in confidence that these bozos are competent is destroying

Your boy’s policies that you worship are estimated to add 20 trillion to the debt in 10 years. Wake
the eff up. And quit yer bitchin. The GOP controls all 3 branches of govt. You should love all of these policy disasters.
And he announced today that he is going to ignore the 9-0 Supreme Court decision
MAGA world must be so proud.
It's not that simple.
Abrego is an illegal alien and a citizen of El Salvador. He is not a US Citizen.
Trump has time to facilitate the return.
9-0 is pretty simple, actually. Ignoring the Supreme Court should result in impeachment.

How many times did old Joe ignore the Court with the student loan thing?
Don't recall you calling for impeachment.
Do you really think a 3rd impeachment is going to make a difference? The first 2 worked out great.

They keep grasping at straws and strawmen.
Every day is new emergency to the Constitution and the Republic.
DJT got impeached for a "Quid Pro Quo", and an attempted overthrow of a free and fair election...
...definitely qualified him for such charges. His Ambassador the the EU, Gordon Sondland, admitted the 'QPQ' under oath in the first Impeachment...and participants in the Willard Hotel War Room on Jan. 5th pled Guilty to "Seditious Conspiracy" in the second. Hardly 'Straws' and 'Straw Men'.
Trump has been a criminal all his adult life.
I get the hatred, I really do. I hated Obama and Biden as much as they hate Trump but I
Chose to ignore them when they were on TV and didn’t go in search of news on them. Trump makes their lives absolutely miserable and it’s like they feed off of that feeling. It’s pretty fucking strange.
It's non-stop from the same people with the same tripe every day.
They make their own lives miserable.
Repetitive, rigid and mean spirited.

He has time to facilitate the return.
If the Leader where Abrego is actually a citizen won't release him, that complicates things.
It's a mess, but it will all get worked out.
If he doesn't - if he ignores the SCOTUS - he should be impeached. Agreed?

He is not a US citizen and not in the US. President has no authority.

Trump has to "facilitate" the return. He does not currently have to "effectuate" the return.
Trump can ask for Abrego's return. El Salvador can say they will not deport their own citizen to a country where he is an illegal alien.
It seems simple enough for most people to understand.

Depends on how it plays out.
If El Salvador refuses to release him because he is their citizen, all bets are off.
Can they deport him to the USA where he is an illegal alien?
Let it play out. All kinds of variables are possible, including impeachment.
If Trump asked, he’d be returned in 10 seconds. You know this.

You are entitled to your opinion. You are not entitled to to mine.
Don’t make pronouncements for me.
What decision was that?
I haven't been paying attention recently, so I'm curious what you're talking about.
If it was a 9-0 decision, I don't see how he can ignore it.

Can you give me something more? The portion I was able to read said Trump claimed the 9-0 decision was in his favor, but that seems to be not the case?
What was the ruling about and how is Trump supposed to uphold the ruling that was made?

Thank you
Unfortunately, facilitating it does not mean it will happen, but I would hope that they make an actual effort to do so rather than slow playing it. From the article you posted it is likely he's already undergoing torture if what was alleged in the previous court order is true.
Perhaps use Google

In neither case. Both Blinken and Witkoff are exactly who we knew they were.
Instead of having diplomats who lead their Presidents we only get ones who cater to them.
Witkoff couldn’t shine Blinken’s shoes. Man is a professional diplomat. This guy is a real estate
dick like the Mango Man.
I agree on Witkoff, but Blinken is a career globalist who never strongly advocated for our country.

Not a fan of Antony. Or Pompey for that matter. See Afghan disgraceful deal. But they are at least
experienced at FP. This arsehole is a buffoon.
