One development I'm wondering about is rumps phone call with the Taiwan President. Did he do it because he is changing US policy (which would seem a bit strange given how he does not seem very aware of or have any international policies - he's far more inward looking) or was it just total ineptitude ?

He's not made any announcements about changes of policy over China and with US relations with Taiwan so one wonders if he is really aware of what he is doing ?

The next leader of the US spoke to the leader of a free, democratic country which is under threat from a near neighbour! Dreadful scandal ensues.

Some brilliant images of Trump http://www.independent.co.uk/news/world/americas/alison-jackson-donald-trump-spoof-photos-sued-litigation-self-publishes-a7465041.html. And given how easily some forum participants seem to be offended, it is an independent report open to anybody of any age though will undoubtedly offend some of the "more sensitive" contributors here.

And Trump (or his team) are threatening to sue over the images!

I cant wait until they appear on line and in papers of Daily Mail quality (though not persuasion) as genuine photographs of Trump.

It gets worse. Now it appears that Russia was behind it all:

I await with dismay the news that Harump has appointed Julian Assange as his National Security Advisor. Or maybe as new head of CIA?

“We are committed to ensuring the integrity of our elections.”

Does letting the electorate get to know some of the facts about their politicians harm the integrity of their elections?

Now it appears that Russia was behind it all:
They always claimed that Russia was behind it all.
The thing that has changed is now they admit that Russia didnt make the whole thing up and that the emails were real emails hacked by them.

Here is a fake news* item from a reputable source about stories invented by Russians and their "agents" who spread the stories for them.

*As in it is a fake story about fake stories.
