Chaos is the goal for Trump. To keep everyone, both allies and enemies, on the edge at all times, always wondering what crazy thing he might say or do next, with the only constant being his greed and corruption. This is no way to live and especially no way to run the world.
The final decision maker is Trump’s accountant…
Does that help?
Ok, lets put the erupting scandal surrounding Kevin McCarthy in a Chinese context.
Bo Xilai was one of the eight princelings headed for the top, the seven-member Permanent Standing Committee of the CPC. But then, fucking relatives…
You silly goose, the final decision maker is the last guy to talk to Trump. Everyone knows that.
Now if you want to be the last guy to talk to the toadpole you’ll have to write some checks. Not sure where to send the checks though since Cohen’s singing to every prosecutor who’ll take his calls.
Jared the Silent is your man, Ambassador ! Say Xi sent you !
