In response to War is the worst thing in the world

Feeding the chooks

Poor thing, Donald. I quite enjoyed him as a candidate. I was often reminded of Joh Bjelke-Petersen’s “feeding the chooks” when describing his news conferences. Never have I watched a greater player of the media than Donald.

Then he got elected only to have President Putin call his bluff in Ukraine and President Xi call his bluff on tariffs. Fortunately for Donald, along comes Netanyahu, the Zionist lobby and his own select advisers to explain that this one’s easy. We can make you great again. Just bomb Iran.

When was the last time that lot got it right?
