Any bets that after he meets with Duterte in the Philippines he suggests we solve the opioid crisis by gangs of armed thugs and extra judicial killings?

He also probably would like to see China flood the U.S. market with fentanyl and carfentanil - to kill off as many addicts as possible.

Why is this suddenly a downside for his supporters?

I think a lot of Trump supporters are focused on domestic issues, and if Trump's not around to act belligerent he slips out of their minds, perhaps. His own message has been that the rest of the world doesn't matter, so why would he need to travel? Those foreigners are all either trash-talking the U.S. or trying to steal our jobs.

It's just a hunch.

How can any country take President Trump seriously ? After weeks of bellicose rhetoric, he's now suggesting diplomacy:

Which should be good news but how can anyone be sure that he's not going to revert to his original message ?

I'm guessing here that China worked out a deal where Lunchbox won't test any nukes or missiles during the trip and The Hair won't break out the bellicose rhetoric.

No one is a big fan of squirrels.

Not even squirrels like other squirrels.

I claim you're a barefaced liar. Or an idiot.

No offense intended, of course.

Ahem and racoons because squirrels distract from how racoons are actually the worst.

Lord knows how his translators manage to get all that goop conveyed in Japanese or whatever the language du jour. I can picture a translator being tempted to edit Trump's words, because they make so little sense taken at face value. How do you translate that crap? Samurai nation should have shot down North Korea's missile. In his quest to be non-PC he's crossing the line to coming off as a rude, nasty, petty and petulant man. It can't be good for the U.S. image and I think even some who support Trump find his demeanor cringe-worthy.

The worst part for a real-time translator has got to be the way he talks in sentence fragments. We can usually guess where he was going before he suddenly does a "jump cut" but I bet that drives the translators nuts, trying to make it sound intelligible in translation and then catch up.
 
Trump backlash has started in governor races.

This may be easier than we thought. Generic Candidate for 2018 election is asked: What are your plans? Answer: erase everything Trump did and prevent further harm.

There are elections going on?
How weird... I've had Fox on for an hour and there's no mention of it.
Tucker and now Sean have been going on about Weinstein and then D. Brazile, and now Gorka is giving Trump a long distance remote hummer.


jk... I've been watching and not once have I seen the elections on the Fox chyron. Not even the small script scroll underneath... wonder why? Every other cable outlet has running coverage. :p

Trump is currently describing NK's authoritarian system.... essentially, how he wishes the USA worked. He's jealous.

Pretty minor victory for the Dems, isn't it?

It's something, but a little early to call it a backlash. Let's wait and see regarding 2018, given the special elections thus far.
 
Trump washes his hands of the thing.
“I don’t want to talk to you no more, you empty-headed animal-food-trough wiper. I fart in your general direction. Your mother was a hamster, and your father smelt of elderberries.”
WAIT, he’s not that clever:
Trump blasts Gillespie over Va. loss: He 'did not embrace me or what I stand for'
