Water Cooler Discussion Today

[Agent Zero]

Several of us were talking today and someone brought up a point that I never thought of and, to be honest, think it could be a viable observation.

What if Trump is crazy enough to rattle all these swords, threaten to obliterate all of North Korea, insult world leaders left and right, post insanely improper of gifs of Hillary being injured, tweet all hours of the day....

Only to distract attention from the Russia investigation?

Is he really capable of destroying the world in order to not face the shame of losing his office?

It is to your credit that you had not thought of that silly hypo on your own. I am pleased.

[Perianne]

Your coworkers sound fascinating. Please share more of their insights.

This OP poster by his/her own admission works for the US State department. Aren't you glad that your tax money pays the OP to work on our behalf using the mentality on display here. We need mandatory drug testing for all government workers.

Bush 43 is at least twice as intelligent as Trump and he started a war in Iraq that has taken the lives of more than 4,400 U.S. service members and - by some estimates - half a million Iraqis, in order to one-up Bush 41 and be assured a second term by being a "war-time President".

So, the answer to your question is, of course, yes.

I worked under Bush, as well as Obama. Neither were crazy enough to threaten to drop nukes on a country and think it the resultant firestorm wouldn't cross any borders or waft through the skies.

Trump lives in a world of his own, and I'm not entirely sure what color the sky is there. I'm guessing gold.

You don't know much about nuclear weapons, do you?

You can refer to him as Mr President Donald Trump

MV, you need new material. The "My word, don't you know anything?" bit has not aged well.
