It should have been one of the most congenial calls for the new commander in chief — a conversation with the leader of Australia, one of America’s staunchest allies, at the end of a triumphant week.

Instead, President Trump blasted Australian Prime Minister Malcolm Turnbull over a refu­gee agreement and boasted about the magnitude of his electoral college win, according to senior U.S. officials briefed on the Saturday exchange. Then, 25 minutes into what was expected to be an hour-long call, Trump abruptly ended it.

At one point Trump informed Turnbull that he had spoken with four other world leaders that day — including Russian President Vladi­mir Putin — and that “This was the worst call by far.”

Aus government officials are describing the conversation as "robust" and shorter than expected. The PM himself had earlier described it as "constructive".

Ha! He actually ranked the calls and told the guy. What a fucking moron.

At least the President pretended to know something about a black person.

Wow. I guess having faith in the intel community is a good idea after all.

Reuters:

The U.S. military said on Wednesday it was looking into whether more civilians were killed in a raid on al Qaeda in Yemen on the weekend, in the first operation authorized by President Donald Trump as commander in chief.

U.S. Navy SEAL William “Ryan” Owens died in the raid on a branch of al Qaeda, also known as AQAP, in al Bayda province, which the Pentagon said also killed 14 militants. Medics at the scene said, however, that about 30 people, including 10 women and children, were killed.

U.S. military officials told Reuters that Trump approved his first covert counterterrorism operation without sufficient intelligence, ground support or adequate backup preparations.

As a result, three officials said, the attacking SEAL team found itself dropping onto a reinforced al Qaeda base defended by landmines, snipers, and a larger than expected contingent of heavily armed Islamist extremists.

That sure reads like military intel burning trump in public.

But he surprise greeted the dead soldier today!

Shit goes down so fast now it's basically a real life version of There's No Time to Explain.

The best thing about today by far was the part where the Australian government tried to smooth over the incident and help trump save face, and he shat on the whole endeavor with a tweet.

If he somehow wins re-election it will probably be a lot more than 8. i can't imagine he would ever willingly step down.

I always thought presidential term limits were pretty weird anyway.
