PSA


Well, our feckless, short-fingered vulgarian of a leader managed to alienate most of America's closest allies last week, even going that extra mile and insulting the head of the host country, and now he's off to Singapore to work his diplomatic magic on the possibly half-mad dictator of an emerging nuclear power.  What could possibly go wrong?

Actually, I wouldn't be surprised if they don't wind up getting along just fine.  They're both autocrats more interested in retaining power than doing anything substantive for the people of their respective nations, and they'll probably understand each other perfectly and leave the meeting as besties with a play date set for the future with Vladimir.
