Donald Trump didn't pay the girls in his rally. And has he ever fed that poor guinea pig stuck to his head?

Bernie is delightfully consistent and scandal free

That's certainly what the Sanders followers believe. There aren't any actual facts to support that belief, though.

Hillary has, to date, won approximately three million more votes than Bernie, and that's with unrelenting attacks on her ever for decades. In the meantime, everyone has bee careful to not say anything negative about Bernie*; the Clinton campaign because they need to woo the Sanders supporters once he's out of the picture, and the Republicans because they want Sanders to be as strong as possible for as long as possible in order to weaken the Clinton campaign.

*And there is plenty of negative to say about Bernie; just as much as about Hillary.

Don't be a doormat is what I'm saying. Respect yourself enough to never let people step on you. If someone insults you, be insulted.

Combine that with an apparently strong 'kiss my ring' impulse ...

why try and bring down Obama in a Trump thread?

A low-ranking governor, not high delegation. Do you people get insulted and remain ignorant of it? Feels like trying to explain veganism to a carnivore.

Are you aware that the "governor" is a member of the Saudi royal family, or are you just choosing to not mention that?

Mustafa Alani might have expertise within his own job, but he’s out of his lane here. A Security analyst from Iraq is free to opine about nuances of insult within official Saudi Protocol, just as you are and I am.

But he holds the legitimacy of any other random blogger, especially while writing so floridly and so far outside his knowledge area. Like when an obstetrician/politician like Ron Paul puts on his Economist hat to shill for Precious Metals dealers. On a website like American Thinker, Alani doesn’t have to be accurate or accountable, or trustworthy. All he has to do is demonstrate hostility for the current Administration, and he’s in the club.

Regardless, it shouldn't take some Senior Advisor and Program Director in Security and Terrorism Studies at the Gulf Research Center to know when you've been insulted.

But what does he know right? /sarcasm

The guest blogger on American Thinker? That Mustafa Alani? I'd sooner take my talking points from Rush Limbaugh.

Lol. I couldn't help but facepalm.

Mustafa Alani, a security analyst at the Gulf Research Center, said that the Saudi decision not to send high-level delegation to the president was unusual and intended to send a clear message that they had little faith in him.

The 2012 Republican nominee, who has openly opposed Trump's candidacy, went further than he has before in outlining to CNN's Wolf Blitzer how the country's character would suffer in a Trump White House. Trump's rhetoric has caused even some other Republicans to label him a racist, and Romney said he would not be able to paper over his incendiary remarks.

"I don't want to see trickle-down racism," Romney said in an interview here in a suite overlooking the Wasatch Mountains, where he is hosting his yearly ideas conference. "I don't want to see a president of the United States saying things which change the character of the generations of Americans that are following. Presidents have an impact on the nature of our nation, and trickle-down racism, trickle-down bigotry, trickle-down misogyny, all these things are extraordinarily dangerous to the heart and character of America."

Romney, who actively sought to recruit an independent, third-party challenger to Trump, also conceded that a credible candidate will not emerge. But he did show a new openness to one non-Trump candidate, libertarian Gary Johnson, whom he did not rule out voting for.

When a foreign head of state visits the United States, the President might or might not meet with the individual, by appointment, at the White House, the President's own turf, during that head of state's visit. Depending on why the person is in our country. But our President would not normally, if ever, go to the airport to meet that person's plane and be that person's "greeter." The President has people for that. You want to meet with the President, you go to the President, not the other way around. The President might throw you a state dinner, but again, it depends on why you're here and whether your intent is more aligned with the President's party or the opposing party. Obama did not hold a state dinner, for example, or even meet with, Benjamin Netanyahu when House and Senate Republicans invited Netanyahu to come here to address Congress.

Trump doesn't know what he doesn't know about protocol. Protocol doesn't mandate heads of countries kissing up to heads of larger countries by riding to airports to meet their planes. It would be unseemly to expect that. Trump would probably expect that.

When Obama visited Saudi Arabia, he was greeted by a governor. The President of the United States visits Saudi Arabia and is greeted by a governor, NOT the crown prince or the king, but some governor. To make it worse, Obama kissed a** the entire time actively trying to placate the Saudi king. That's a slap on the face for us because we are starting to be perceived as weak (which is absolutely terrible on the global stage). You've got to remember that being a superpower is more than just having lots of weapons or a huge army. At the risk of sounding Machiavellian, the perception of power is often more influential than the power itself. If I recall correctly, something similar happened to Obama in China too. This is not good for our image.

I have not figured out how to use the quotes. nr32 some of what you said I agree with and some I don't and that is totally cool. Your comment about being scared of something and not making it true is a very odd comment. People are scared of a lot of things and that is a feeling. If I am scared of spiders does it make it true? Makes no sense to me at all.

Shall we post opinion pieces on Hillary, as well?
