President Donald Trump bumfoozled the world and the media for the umpteenth time on Monday when he had a successful meeting with North Korea's nuke-happy little dictator, Kim Jung Un, to talk about a world in which
neither nation has to reduce the other to glowing radioactive debris.
This has, of course, been derided by Trump's critics (and they are legion) as either a completely meaningless gesture or a godawful tragedy of historic proportions. If not both.
We see it a little differently. Donald Trump has opened the door for meaningful progress with North Korea...and it's far too early to know if it will pay off or not. That being said, even getting to
this stage was considered impossible by previous administrations, so Trump deserves considerable credit.
Based on the progress made, it seems that Kim Jung Un is a little more willing to deal with a President who takes a tough stance (
"I will bomb you so bigly that your entire country will be like molten lava spraying from the devil's butthole") rather than the more
nuanced approach affected by Barack Obama.
And by nuanced, we mean acting like a prissy pantywaist when he watched North Korea launch test missiles towards Hawaii
on the freaking 4th of July and
still gave no more reaction than a cocked eyebrow, pursed lips, and an exasperated sigh.
It was basically the same sneering reaction Barry would have at a formal dinner if he spied someone incorrectly using a salad fork instead of the escargot fork...while completely losing sight of the more important fact that
any fork is a danger in the hands of a volatile, sociopathic murderer.
Here at
Stilton's Place, we still don't really understand Donald Trump...but we
do understand winning and, from the Left, whining.
And currently we're enjoying both.
BONUS: NORM!!!

"Dammit Bill, don't get any of her blood on my private email server!" |
Bill Clinton continues to be the anti-feminist gift that keeps on giving. When recently talking about disgraced former Senator Al Franken getting busted for fanny fondling, the syphilitic ex-president offered up this rationale as a feeble defense: "
The norms have really changed in terms of what you can do to somebody against their will."
Apparently in Bill Clinton's world, there was once a "norm" in which it was okay to have state troopers drag women to his hotel room, it was okay to drop trow and do an enticing weenie-waggle, it was okay to take sexual advantage of women too young and stupid to know better, it was okay to shove cigars up their tunnel of love, it was okay to threaten women (or worse) who didn't keep their mouths shut and, of course, it was okay in Bill Clinton's "norm" to rape a woman and leave her bleeding in bed after chewing on her.
And the Left agreed, for decades, that this not only
was the norm but it was
empowering for women. Because otherwise, they'd have had to condemn Bill Clinton
and the loathsome wife who enabled (and possibly encouraged?) this appalling behavior.
#MeToo is finally saying the things that conservatives had been saying all along. Welcome to the club, ladies.
