This transcript reads like an SNL parody. Duterte is a monster, and Trump praises him and his murderous style. Strength! Or some crap.
I believe it is also the first time in history that a president has discussed the location of our nuclear subs (SSBN or SSN, unclear) with anyone. Correct me if I am wrong. But I'm not.
And for you Trumpamaniacs: it was released by the Filipinos, and has not been denied, in whole or part, by the Trump admin.
It's OK to say that this is unacceptable. It really is. You might feel good. And it doesn't mean that you think Hillary should have been president.

But in a Philippines plagued by drug war violence and Islamic terrorism he represents a desperate peoples' yearning for security. I do understand that most respectable Phillipinos are as aghast of Duterte as most Americans are of Trump... bu, just as here, the elites were not addressing the anxieties of the huddled masses.
There was no major drug plague in the Philippines. And many of these "drug dealers" happened to be Duterte's political opponents.
He is a dictator, seizing power slowly. He is also about to declare martial law over all the islands (not just a few, where it is now), for NO REASON except to give him emergency powers to jail - and brazenly kill - anyone he wants.
You don't have to play the part of Trump's lawyer on here, for godsake.

The CIA's job is to do the bidding of the President.
As for Kissinger, First off, I can't believe he's still alive.
Secondly, he's an agent provocateur of Israel
Thirdly, he has this knack for cozying up to Presidents, Foreign leaders and wannabes.
But it was their policy and directives that led to it.
