When has Il Douche ever given a shit about the geopolitical situation on the Crimean Peninsula? More likely, he’s starting to sweat…

So, on the one hand I’m appalled that President Porky continues to conduct his foreign policy via Twitter, on the other hand I’m relieved that he won’t be getting any fresh instructions from his handler this weekend, and on the gripping hand I’m hoping Putin will tire of his lapdog making messes on the carpet and send the Trumps some delicious Russian eggnog seasoned with Polonium.

Well, either the White House is too inept to inform Russia the meeting isn’t happening, or Trump is still going ahead with the meeting, but hopes that by saying on Twitter that it isn’t, people won’t notice when it still happens. Both are plausible because they’re things that happen with this administration.

Folks need to remember when Michael Cohen was negotiating the deal with “Russia” for Trump, he was not negotiating like a regular business transaction. The plea agreement says he was negotiating with Kremlin OFFICIALS – not private businesspersons. This is no ordinary biz.

The Westphalian diplomatic system was getting a little bit long in the tooth anyway. I don’t see any downside to replacing it with twitter hashtags.
