Stooshie is a new word in my vocabulary.

Scottish informal - A row or fracas.
Origin : Early 19th century: of unknown origin.

Used all the time here!

Mr Trump's idiocy knows no bounds. Pointing the finger at an ally? Seriously bad form, even if it originated at Fox (faux) News!

Agreed on the UK, but I did think it refreshing that Trump sympathized with Angela Merkel, who should not have been spied on.

He was a boor to her. The man has no manners.

Subsequently he was a boor when he publicly called her out on NATO contributions.

She's a women of some stature; he's not fit to carry her luggage. He's outclassed everywhere he goes.

I don't think Trump feels the US has any allies. To him, we have enemies, and countries which have not yet been proven to be enemies.

He is not a diplomat. His need to always win, plus his need to grind his opponents into the ground, is not going to serve my country well.

One thing I thought weird was President "I'm going to grab your hand, pull it toward me, and not let go for 3 minutes" wouldn't even shake hands with Merkel when offered.

Strange Man!

It's frightening to know he is such a powerful figure in the world.

Many of us here in the US feel the same way.

We have progressed from a US President spying on the Germans and lecturing the British to a US President lecturing the Germans and accusing the British of spying on him.
