Let's hope Bolton doesn't whisper in his ear that a drone strike would be cheaper and easier.
Doesn't US law actually prohibit the use of military as a police force?
National Guard can be mobilised.
Yeah but you're not supposed to use the actual army though right?
Who knows anymore! It'd be spun as defense of the nation rather than execution of any laws.
As if following the law has ever prevented Trump from trying something...
That's scary.
'Ladies first', what a dolt.
This Lithuanian speaks better English than Trump.

Trump giving the Estonian President the look of love
As he is the president is shit like this still technically "presidential"
They should have kept the oil
Lithuanian President looks like Trump's sister
Edit: Derp
Mansplainin' international relations to the Baltic reporter chick.
She could beat him up if she wanted.
Really? He doesn't seem that intimidating to be honest.
He looks like The Hood from Thunderbirds
Don't feck with a bald bloke, they've got nothing left to lose.
If there's a pool, raoul wins it.
For some reason this doesn't surprise me. He had the look.
Well those that said the Trump train would be entertaining are bearing fruit. Amazon is one of the most exploitative and unethical companies in the Western World. Trump might actually be the lesser evil here. Hopefully Bezos and Trump tear each other to pieces.
Yes this is one of these odd issues where Trump finds himself to be strange bedfellows with leftists who are dubious of Amazon's labor practices. That said, his involvement in this issue is related to Bezos and the Washington Post's negative coverage of him, so I would hold off on nominating him for any awards in altruism.
It's obviously not altuism but just maybe it could set a precedent in dealing with tax dodgers. And that obviously isn't the motive but we know no Democrat would dare to threaten the same action.
He's reduced corporate tax for all of them. Then picks out one to go after. The only precendent he is setting is write bad things about me and mine and i'll go after your money.
How we all feel
Re: his Amazon attacks...it's a bit like Ann Coulter going after Trump for not being racist enough.
I hope Bezos buys twitter, and effectively ends his presidency.
No fan of Amazon and agree they're incredibly unethical as well as often being a fairly horrible and exploitative company to work for, but I struggle to get behind this considering it's basically Trump on his own personal vendetta against one specific company/man. If he were applying this to all big names like Amazon I'd be more liable to sympathise but it's clear that isn't the case, and anyone who falls in line or who actively courts him is fine. Will be fun to watch the two hopefully tear each other apart though, as you say.
Buying Sinclair would be a massive start.
