The Trump Swagger
Posted By: Imright, 3/19/2021 6:01:55 AM
At the 2012 Republican National Convention, Mitt Romney was a few minutes behind schedule to take the podium and accept the nomination for president. In the long walk from his private room through the corridor and behind the stage, the genteel Mitt kept whispering “Excuse me” as he wiggled his way through well-wishers or just bystanders. The uber-polite Mitt just wouldn’t move any faster, along with his equally polite security.And Donald Trump? At a European Union conference with all the heads of state from those countries big and small it was picture time as presidents and prime ministers jousted for the premier photo op.

MISSION, Texas — Children as young as 5 are sent across the Rio Grande in a raft by themselves with nothing but the clothes on their back and a phone number, sometimes scrawled across their stomachs. If they make it past the churning, green waters, they hike up steep embankments, dodge rattlesnakes in the brush and say one thing when they eventually encounter a law enforcement officer: “Me voy a los Estados Unidos” or “I’m going to the United States.”

While the news of the day was Joe Biden tripping and grinding himself into the stairs of Air Force One, a much bigger story happened just prior.Secretary of State Antony Blinken decided to invite the Chinese delegation to Alaska to hold diplomatic talks. Holding a publicly-broadcast meeting is typically something you do when you know exactly how things are going to go. The last thing you want is to see your country humiliated by a tyrannical regime. Yet Blinken, clearly not prepared for the job he holds, ended up making the United States look absolutely pathetic in the face of the communists.Here’s one of the clips of Blinken getting owned.
