Noam Chomsky is putting it the most stark terms.

“It’s hard to say because we don’t really know what he thinks, and I’m not sure he knows what he thinks,” Chomsky told The Guardian. “He’s perfectly capable of saying contradictory things at the same time.”

“But there are some pretty stable elements of his ideology, if you can even grant him that concept,” he continued. “One of them is: ‘Climate change is not taking place.’ As he puts it: ‘Forget it.’ And that’s almost a death knell for the species – not tomorrow, but the decisions we take now are going to affect things in a couple of decades, and in a couple of generations it could be catastrophic.”

      no question about it KA. The rest of the world including the slobs best friend Putin are in a state of either fear or confusion or doubt or all three. The guy is an absolute political, social, and human menace.

        I can see him going to a NUCLEAR CONFRONTATION really quick to keep donald j. trump from facing criminal charges in a country where he has exploited human suffering beyond tyrannical toleration of the most desperate despots – it’s just that I can’t see him winning with the number of ‘alliances’ he will LIE about having.

      didn’t he like play some music or something while the roman teabaggers did a job on their empire?

    now that we’re on the same page with the world’s greatest JUNK DEALER –

    I’m thinking the end with this Klown will come much sooner and with a heck of a lot bigger bang!

    anybody who exploits human suffering to MAKE JUNK in China to make donald j. trump great in america again,
    anybody who exploits human suffering to MAKE JUNK in Mexico to make donald j. trump
    great in america again,
    anybody who exploits human suffering to MAKE JUNK in India to make donald j. trump
    great in america again,

    does not have the interest of the species (except for donald j. trump) in mind or heart.

    trump is either on the run from a government where his exploitation of human suffering has reached criminal mass, or he’s contradicted his own words too many times for a New York Italian family to take at face value. (probably with a cash sum involved). Without the US TAXPAYER’s Security (Secret Service) – of which donald j. trump pays no taxes – his orange toupee loudmouth flim flam scamming head is up for a ‘closed auction’. If you want to see this con man in actuality, watch him when he loses the election in November and his secret service protection is taken away. run and hide donnie has tremendously lost a lot of hiding places – maybe to the point where there is nowhere to run, nowhere to hide except behind the US Taxpayer’s monies (of which a lot has no doubt already been given to him through the scamming games republiKons have placed inside US tax codes.

    make america great again – REFUSE to buy cheap made donald j. trump imported JUNK!

    because we don’t really know what he thinks, and I’m not sure he knows what he thinks,”
    Wrong!
    Everything Trump thinks, does, and says is to benefit Trump
    Simple.
