How this young Indiana couple stole $1.2 million from Amazon

https://www.cnbc.com/2018/06/07/how-...om-amazon.html

No doubt Donny sees them as heroes. Brilliant con artists, just like Donny. Donny hates Amazon. Will he pardon them, too?

I am sure that the Dotard will pardon the Finans. After all, Trump believes that Amazon cheats on taxes and is screwing USPS. Then there is the WaPo resentment to get even with.

The Man Who Would Be King

In order to protect the president, Trump’s advocates have turned to arguing his power is virtually unlimited.

Odd. These same wingnuts sure weren't saying this when Obama was (a real) president. Maybe our local wingnut lover can explain...

Au contraire, mon ami. I'm trying to put the misdirected naif on the straight and narrow.

Donny’s G7 Temper Tantrum

https://www.cnn.com/2018/06/08/polit...eau/index.html

Campaigning is easy. Governing is hard.

And it turns out that simply telling other countries to, say, pay for a border wall (and enjoy it!) or renegotiate broad and complex trade deals isn't as easy as firing someone on a reality TV show.

That reality makes Trump mad. And when he gets angry, he tweets.

Donny’s demolition theory of foreign policy won’t work

Even if the president strikes a deal with North Korea, his approach will harm America and the world

Excellent read from The Economist. Sorry, Whell, it’s way over your reading comprehension level.
