Is not that he “lies”. It’s that he tells the truth.
President Donald Trump signaled Monday that he was prepared to cut off aid to Pakistan if the country failed to cooperate with the US.
“The United States has foolishly given Pakistan more than 33 billion dollars in aid over the last 15 years, and they have given us nothing but lies & deceit, thinking of our leaders as fools,” he wrote. “They give safe haven to the terrorists we hunt in Afghanistan, with little help. No more!”
When you get Rand Paul and Hamid Karzai on the same side…
More… President Donald Trump on Tuesday appeared to threaten to cut off U.S. aid money to the Palestinian Authority, asking why the U.S. should make “any of these massive future payments” when they are “no longer willing to talk peace.”
WATCH: Ambassador Nikki Haley speaks on Pakistan, Iran”
“asking why the U.S. should make “any of these massive future payments” when they are “no longer willing to talk peace.”
Gosh what a good question. However, I am sure Trump will be attacked for asking it.
The first fallout from voting against Israel.
Can’t say the _akis weren’t warned.
Next?
“no longer willing to talk peace” LindaL
The Palestine People have never wanted peace with Israel… The UN history set by that Canadian twit Pearson was that Palestine refused to negotiate “anything” for (now) more than 75 years…They need to GO away NOW
Gawwd do I LOVE MY President!!!
“They” said that a “businessman” was unsuitable to be POTUS. That a “businessman” lacked the nuance and subtlety to “lead”. NONSENSE!!! President Trump is simply CRUSHING IT! Was it “nuance” that led HER to leave our American Ambassador UNPROTECTED in Benghazi? Was it “nuance” that led Hussein Obama and Valerie Jarrett to airlift tons ($billions) of cash to our sworn enemy, Iran?
Have you heard the leftists talk about … “speaking TRUTH to Power”? Well … MY President is doing that … without any nuance, or subtlety. The TRUTH he speaks is self-evident. Why would we PAY our enemies to work against our interests? Why would we airlift plane loads of $$ CASH? to a nation that mocks us and chants “Death to the Great Satan”? Is THAT “nuance”, John Fitzgerald Kerry?
I have been FRUSTRATED my entire lifetime, wondering WHY our country keeps sending Billions in $$$ American Tax (and borrowed) dollars to The Palestinian Authority. A group which is nothing more than a proxy BULLY cheered on by most of the UN General Assembly to keep kicking Israel and America in the ball sac.
Mr. President … I’ve got your back! Keep it up! Keep speaking TRUTH to the artificially-powerful. Time for my country to stand erect. I’m tired of crawling and begging for peace. And sick to effffing death of Islamo-Terror. Islamo-death. Islamo-destruction. Islamo-lies.
The Palestinians have now painted themselves into a corner. No nobody wants them and they have no political capital.
It’s time to move on. Their intransigence has come back to bite them.
I almost hope President Trump has one of these moments every week for the next 2 3/4 years leading into his second term.
Bet those smashed greenhouses in Gaza could have been put to some use. Or any type of effort going into making something, as opposed to tunnels into Israel.
Gaza greenhouses …

“I want to reorganize the land so we’re clearing it out for now,” Al-Najar said as two workers carried off a stack of tall metal support beams. Asked whether he intended to sell the materials, Al-Najar shook his head. “We’ll probably rebuild with them, but I want the greenhouses to be our own, not Jewish ones,” he said.”
… lol
the Turd must be quaking in his socks, the new leader of the world, the TURD, will run out of our cash before this all ends…..wait, I think he has already run out
go Trump go MAGA
‘…”We’ll probably rebuild with them, but I want the greenhouses to be our own, not Jewish ones,” he said.’
I want them to be the Palestinian’s stuff to be their own, too. When they have to build their own country and earn their own living with their own hands, instead of getting it by theft, begging, and international welfare, maybe then they’ll start to think differently about pissing it away on terrorism.
What I can’t figure out is why this is considered such a big deal. It would seem to be self-evident that it’s not a good idea to help your enemies. Pleasing your enemies does not make them your friends. So why didn’t previous presidents cut the funding? (That question doesn’t apply to Obama, he was funding friends.)
Marc in Calgary.
You have brought up the absolute mind boggling instance of folly by these people. How could anyone with an ounce of common sense smash this valuable property? It is beyond my experience in this old world. Smashing greenhouses instead of using them to an advantage. The word “moronic” scarcely describes it.

whatever you may think of trump… he
sure makes all the right people crazy.

The US has the elected the right man to deal with global affairs…he gives out the straight goods, the unvarnished truth, no gobble-de-gook crap, just the facts.
Political correctness does not work to protect our safety and security against the evil we have in parts of this world. We need plain language, call it what it is to avoid any mixed messages.
Trump is driving the Left mad…that is what needed to happen, their doctrine doesn’t work.
Canada has yet to catch on, our media and even so called comics can’t stop joking about Trump.
If Trump ciuts the cash off to the Palestinians then where do they get their handouts? The Saudis have used them as a proxy for decades. Well the Saudis are in deep doo doo now that their attempted overthrow of Syria has backfired. The Iranians have embraced regional intervention in Lebanon, Syria, Iraq and of course Yemen. Well that isn’t working so well either.
The Saudis bankrolled Sadam Husein to invade Iran and have financed international Muslim terrorism globally. I am not to worried about their pay back that is coming. IMHO Canada has no national interest in the ME and they can blow themselves up. Like Trump, Canada should not be creating a haven in Canada which is what is happening.
“The Palestine People have never wanted peace with Israel…” Exactly!
Good for Trump! Hopefully he keeps up slapping the UN thugocracy and cutting off aid to duplicitous states that stab the US in the back continuously.
More and More I am totally liking this President of the United States.
No BS, No cheap obfuscation of the issues, no wink wink – nudge nudge. For the FIRST time in my 65 years, I am hearing straight talk.!
Do this and I will do that. Period.
Why has this world of ours not learned a damned thing since 1939.???
Like President Iminadinnerjacket who told the world: “We will Annihilate
& Obliterate Israel.
Like Adolf Hitler stated in his Mein Kampf….ya gotta believe their statements – they were being truthful.
Why do we not believe them when they threaten our world.? Why do we kiss their collective (_i_)’s eh.? From Clement Atlee, Lester Pearson, Jimmy Carter, Obama & Justin Trudeau….nothing but bowing down and Ass kissing totalitarianism.
It doesn’t work – never did. One must meet Evil with STRENGTH
One good look at the Palestinians…they have NEVER EVER sought peace. They as their forefathers want nothing less than to Destroy Israel and drive the Jews into the sea. (their words). Said Peace Process was a process alright….a process to extort US Tax monies – period.
Well, not to equate Donald Trump with the above 2/3 slime-bags in any way…but he too is being truthful in his statements. And has put the UN and the rest of the planet on Notice…there will be repercussions based on your actions.
AWESOME…!!
nuance. ya, latin for ‘fcuk, dont ask me, I dont know, Im just guessing here’.
also, I take issue with the media presenting this as ‘Trump chose Jerusalem’. no he godd&^mn well DIDNT, Jerusalem had ALREADY been chosen, by the Israelis. Trump ‘chose’ to RECOGNIZE AND ACKNOWLEDGE the decision made by others.
I think one of the reason Im drawn to Trump has to do with my autism. I take things quite literal. with Trump I ‘miss’ the ‘nuances’, I dont have to friggin DEAL with any nonsensical half arsed wishy washy quadruple meaning crapola.
wysiwyg BIG TIME with the Donald. even the juvenile stuff. ALL REAL. you bloody well KNOW what youre going to get because he said so. and furthermore, I just had a lengthy confab on the bus about cdn vs american politics, citing the fact I have watched these people for 5 decades + and regardless of ANYTHING ELSE the media coughs up, it is my strong opinion that the n korean nuke issue is going to become large and heavy in 2018. Trump is the only one of ALL the 2016 candidates capable of doing what needs to be done with kim jong unhinged. THAT, temporarily, outweighs all other aspects of the present administration and times.
