It’s just Kegbreath spewing praise on Dear Leader. Who needs to brag when you have serfs like Kegger to do it for you? When they go into “praise gear” they all sound like Charlie Brown’s teacher to me. Out Bibi-ing Bibi ... sickening

He does not have nearly the gravitas for this role, or to give a press conference. That speech was awful, effectively telling the world that Trump had been lying for weeks, which apparently was a better option than telling the world that Netanyahu talked Trump into it in the last few days. The triumphalist tone is absolutely the wrong message to the rest of the world, because it tells the world that they might be next.

Don't believe anything he or legacy media says because they are trying to cover up everything that's going on.

He's just like Cruz was with Carlson. Hasn't got a clue.
