As per tradition the US president gives a speech to the UN…..but most presidents touch on issues that represent a grasp of world affairs….and then along came the babbling buffoon…..and threatens genocide in front of the General assembly….
In his address to the UN General Assembly on Tuesday, President Trump threatened Iran with “annihilation” and “hell,” but said he believes there would be a deal after the midterm elections, and said later in the day that his envoys held talks with Iranian officials.
Trump told the General Assembly that he has a “big decision to make” regarding Iran, repeating a talking point he’s used in recent media interviews.
“Will a deal be made with Iran that lets them rebuild and create a far greater country than it ever was before, maybe one of the greatest in the Middle East or even the world? Or do I annihilate the Islamic Republic and do it quickly, never giving them a chance to kill and destroy people and countries again? Do I drive them into hell with no chance of survival and no hope of future greatness or generations?” the president said.
“But I believe we’ll make a deal right after the election because it doesn’t make sense for them not to. They’re waiting to see how I do in the midterm election. What they don’t realize is that I’m not running. I did that already and won in a landslide. We won in a giant landslide, and I’ll be here for two and a half years. The Republican Party is running, and I’ll be helping them. But I am not running. I gave absolutely no credence and will not give credence to the election when it comes to Iran,” he added.
Trump also boasted of his attack on Venezuela and takeover of Venezuela’s oil industry, saying “to the victor belongs the spoils.” He also took aim at Cuba, where civilians are suffering under a ramped-up US oil embargo, calling it a “failed state.”

All that smacks of authoritarian bullshit…..can it be used against his loud obnoxious mouth?
The rest of the speech was pretty much….blah, blah, blah….same regurgitation as always.
After thumping his chest like a sex crazed primate he them attacks the media….
President Donald Trump lashed out at a CNN journalist Tuesday morning at the United Nations, telling her, “You should not be here covering me,” as the Department of Justice prepares to defend in federal court his ban on that media outlet, MS NOW and Politico from the White House.
CNN anchor Kaitlan Collins had asked Trump about a new poll that found two-thirds of Americans do not think the U.S. is winning its war with Iran.
“When will it end?” Collins asked the president.
“So it’s an honor to be here. I’m surprised that CNN is here covering me,” Trump told reporters as he gestured at Collins, before he entered the General Assembly in New York to address that body.
Collins interjected, “The United Nations allowed us in here, sir.”

The world is really starting to see what an infantile bully this moron truly is and they will make work arounds….
Once again the clown prince of absurdity embarrassed himself and the country….any wonder why people do not like this twat?
I Read, I Write, You Know
“lego ergo scribo”
He should be invited to attend a court in the Hague, a ringside seat in the dock awaits him. He is a war criminal without doubt.
He will not face justice for the US did not sign onto the ICC and can ignore any summons just like BiBi is doing. chuq
Or do I annihilate the Islamic Republic and do it quickly, never giving them a chance to kill and destroy people and countries again?

That threat by Donald Trump can only be construed or explained as the threat of ordering nuclear weapons to be unleashed against/on the Iranian people.
The immediate removal of Donald Trump from office via 25th Amendment provision (The man is clearly clinically and criminally insane) has never been more urgent.
Sorry, Jerry– he is here for the duration because his supporters are as nuts as he is and there are plenty of them…enough to destroy the democratic republic– which is what I think they are intent on doing…. from the looks of things.
Agreed….he is promoting genocide like his butt buddy BiBi….time for action against this fool. chyuq
I get a vague sense, from reading your blog, that you are not particularly in agreement with the president…LOL
Good call whoever you are. chuq
Shameful of course, but he cannot embarrass himself because he has no shame or self-awareness. He actually believes all of the shit he talks about himself. The best bit was so many countries walking out when Bibi went to speak. But what happened to Mamdami threatening to arrest him if he set foot in NYC? I badly wanted to see that happen, and presume he lost his nerve. What’s the point of ICC warrants if they are never executed?
Best wishes, Pete.
I loved it when BiBi started and the delegates left…..bully for them. chuq
As I mentioned elsewhere … can you imagine a TRUE leader of the U.S. standing before the U.N. representatives and giving a speech like a individual who barely made it out of kindergarten??? He is such an embarrassment to this country!!
And people wonder about his mental process….to that I say…what process? chuq
