Srikcir Posted November 4, 2017 Share Posted November 4, 2017 "the US President Donald Trump has decided at the last minute to extend a marathon trip to Asia and will spend “an extra day in the Philippines” to attend the East Asia Summit" That's another day people in North America will hold their collective breathe to whatever unforeseen behavior Trump displays.

Cadbury Posted November 5, 2017 Share Posted November 5, 2017 (edited) Hope he remembers to take his Article 44 with him. Just in case one of those Asean external partners or some tin-pot Asean member gets a bit uppity with him or tries to push him around. He'll show them who's boss. I guess now he and Trump are best buddies they will probably shoot a bit of pool together later in the evening.

Seriously, this is probably a good opportunity for him to get away and talk to some sane (with perhaps one exception) and sensible people for a change. Not having to listen to, talk to and put up with some of his incompetent ministers should be of great relief and contrast for him.

Trump wants to see more export. When he fails to produce the general will be a door mat. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chris Lawrence Posted November 5, 2017 Share Posted November 5, 2017 Starting to fit into 'big boy pants' as the other boys in the yard are now playing with him. He is getting more lunch money now to buy cream pies and Fanta at recess. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
