In an interview with CBS News, Putin puppet and co-conspirator Donald "Rump" Trump called the European Union a "foe" of the United States. The EU consists of 28 of our allies -- including France, Ireland, Norway, Germany and the Netherlands -- representing 519 million people, and together is the U.S.'s number one trading partner. At the NATO summit in Brussels last week, Rump referred to Russia's authoritarian thug Vladimir Putin as a "competitor" and not an adversary or enemy.
Within hours, European Council President Donald Tusk hit back at Rump's moronic statement:
America and the EU are best friends. Whoever says we are foes is spreading fake news.— Donald Tusk (@eucopresident) July 15, 2018
Later in the interview, Rump continued to malign Special Counsel Robert Mueller's investigation into Russia's interference in the 2016 elections on behalf of Rump:
"Mr. Trump also continued to criticize the special counsel's Russia investigation, saying it is having an impact on America's standing in the world. 'I think we're greatly hampered by this whole witch hunt that's going on in the United States,' the president said. 'I think it hurts our relationship with Russia. I actually think it hurts our relationship with a lot of countries. I think it's a disgrace what's going on.'"Yes, the "witch hunt" which indicted 12 more Russian military intelligence officials last Friday. He's "hampered" from betraying U.S. interests and national security because of that "witch hunt." Now, he has less to offer up to Putin because everyone's watching him, not that he won't try to please his Kremlin handler in some way.

We must always remember that everything in Trumpland is upside down and backwards. The truth is never spoken there, only Trumpish. So when he declares allies and villains, know that it's a reverse of that.
And also remember that whatever he says, he can turn around and say he never said it. As recently as his crazy-assed interview with The Sun newspaper, he talked for over an hour with the reporter, the interview was published, and the next day Trump declared itnwas fake news and he never said it.
It's no wonder that the rest of the world thinks we're idiots. With Trump, there is no honest discourse, treaties mean nothing, and every agreement comes with a price tag.
I hate this man. And that's not opposite day.
donnah - The malicious, treasonous fool is wrecking in 18 months what it took 70 years to construct. We hope our allies take the "this too shall pass" attitude and stick with us until we're rid of him.
