I'm having a hard time finding anything on it because of all the noise from this, but there was definitely an incident in the 80s or early 90s with a bunch of wrestlers getting caught in Saudi Arabia with a shitload of drugs but it all got swept under the rug.

President Assad: As for Trump, you might ask me a question and I give you an answer that might sound strange. I say that he is the best American President, not because his policies are good, but because he is the most transparent president. All American presidents perpetrate all kinds of political atrocities and all crimes and yet still win the Nobel Prize and project themselves as defenders of human rights and noble and unique American values, or Western values in general. The reality is that they are a group of criminals who represent the interests of American lobbies, i.e. the large oil and arms companies, and others. Trump talks transparently, saying that what we want is oil. This is the reality of American policy, at least since WWII. We want to get rid of such and such a person or we want to offer a service in return for money. This is the reality of American policy. What more do we need than a transparent opponent? That is why the difference is in form only, while the reality is the same.

trump's half baked brain not being able to focus on any one project or theater at a time means the amount of damage he can actively do is pretty limited at least. too bad about all the other dumb poo poo he's done.

wasnt the trump state department chaos responsible for shitshows like denying visas for stateside medical care for the family of some venezuela general lol i mean venezuela not turning into a military junta probably has more to do with the conditions created under the rule of chavez and maduro, but i imagine the trump administration being a cesspool of unreliable incompetence thinking that a mass heel turn of the venezuela military was imminent certainly didnt help the guaido situation

yeah what Guaido told them was that he already had popular support and military support and just needed US support, and what was actually happening was that Guaido was hoping US support would give him the popular support and military support he did not in fact have yet then the time came to pull the trigger and he ended up launching a coup attempt with like 60 people, several of whom had been brought there under false pretenses and immediately turned around and went back to their barracks when they found out what they had almost been roped into participating in. the rest of them stood around on a highway interchange with their thumbs up their asses for a few hours and that was pretty much it, that was the coup Mister Bates has issued a correction as of 02:41 on Nov 2, 2019 |
