This is an emergency, it always was and now it’s coming to a boil, and if the GOP doesn’t do something to stop it they’re now an existential threat to this country.
Agreed. We’re way past hair on fire danger here!
And his complete lack of knowledge and unwillingness to learn is not just a danger to this country - he’s proving to be a danger to the entire world.
Here we go:

“The mayor of Taoyuan confirmed rumors on Wednesday that US president-elect Donald Trump was considering constructing a series of luxury hotels and resorts in the northwest Taiwanese city.”
And so on and so forth…
This is a fucking outrage.
As I posted on another thread, HO also called the prime minister of Pakistan earlier this week which will piss off India.
This man must be stopped and, at this point, I don’t even care who does it or how.
Yep. Nothing else matters now.
O my god and he called Duterte? O my god.
O my god - this can’t happen. This has to be stopped it’s gotten mortally dangerous and he’s not even in charge yet.
Jeeeeeebus wept
“Bull in a china shop” indeed.
This moron has already made more blunders before his inauguration than most people do in their entire term in office. Who is going to stop him? Who has got control over this man?
This is how the populace must have felt when an obviously insane inbred ascended to the throne. God save us.
Will World War 3 begin before the son of a bitch is president? He is insane and putting the country at grave risk. This is so much worse than was imagined.
Bet he’s too chicken to deal directly with General Tso.
He is just not fit to serve in this office. A majority of the Americans who voted also feel like we do - he is unfit.
This just can’t happen and I don’t know what to do goddamn it

Media and press corps, you own this monster you helped create.
Correction: Nothing matters now. It’s over. It’s been nice knowing you all but, this whole “civilization” thing… it had to end sooner or later, right? It was good while it lasted though. Let’s hope that 1,000 years or so from now, as their digging through the ruins of what we once were, they’ll at least highlight the good stuff.
I’ve been offline most of the day, but my daughter told me Rachel Maddow discussed the seriousness of Trump and his naive and dangerous call to the Pakistani PM.
Someone needs to pull the plug on his telephone and gag him.
Edited to fix the x.
And edited to add that this man should not be president.
Do something, someone, before it’s too late!!!
Impossible to overstate how sensitive the Chinese government and businesses are about Taiwan.
I knew some people with Raytheon who went to Beijing to market turbines. Some fool gets the idea that he is going to put a Chinese map on the cover of the briefing books, with Taiwan in the map.They distributed them at their first meeting, and the Chinese participants literally stop talking and put their heads down.
One of the Americans looks at the map and says Taiwan doesn’t look right. So they slightly change the position of Taiwan in a second and then a third briefing book. Same reaction. The Chinese go quiet and put their heads down.
The trip, of course, was a glorious failure and gave rise to a short rule about future marketing in China – “No maps.”
I simply can’t believe how stupid this was and how it illustrates that Trump knows virtually nothing about the world outside of Manhattan.
Ok so where/who is the Republican foreign affaires go-to-guy? Luger is out, Rogers is out, Hadley is …, and Corker here’s looking at you kid. GOP you own this. Fox News you own this.
