"There are countless horrible things happening all over the world and horrible people prospering, but we must never allow them to disturb our equanimity or deflect us from our sacred duty to sabotage and annoy them whenever possible." -Auberon Waugh

Can we send you some kangaroos?
Time for the intermission, complete with music:
Clowns to the left of me, Jokers to the right, here I am, Stuck in the middle with you.
Kangaroos would definitely be appropriate.
To quote a comment on Ace, witness intimidation vs witness elimination.
It seems this is a desperate attempt to hold the fragmenting Dems together until 2020, even at the risk of sending more people over to the growing 'this is all BS' side of the electorate. This how the Dems hope to at least survive intact, so their leaders can say 'we did our best'.
Yes, it does have something of the character of a forlorn hope (except for the true believing idiots who think this is shrewd strategy).
One thing too, the "I Hate America" US elites have this delusion that everything revolves around the US. We talk of superpower etc, but the outside world gets on as it always has by making all sorts of deals of convenience with each other, especially now with wealthy China. So apparently Ukraine, signed up to China's 'belt and road' already gets unknown amount of support from China. It's not like they'll starve without US aid. Trump's instincts that it's all a 'deal' are right, the bureaucrats with their fantasy of standing astride the world are the ones out of touch.
I've seen this personally, fresh US college grads in India wandering around asking 'Did the US do this?' when local affairs often have little or nothing to do with the US. It's a delusion they have, which enables others to game them actually, 'Oh sahib, give us money or we don't know what we'll do!' like Pakistan does, when they too get lost of support from China.
Rumor has it that Twitter is banning users for tweeting "I hired Donald Trump to fire people like Yovanovitch", because some leftist blue-check "influencers" decided only bots would retweet something like that 7,800 times in an hour.
Apparently, these self-important "influencers" have no idea what "going viral" means.
At one point, some humorless dolt tried to claim it was a 4Chan hoax, but the first time it appeared on the /pol/ board was almost an hour after Jack Posobiec got it started.
We are reminded that Bill Clinton fired and replaced 'everyone' when he took over, if that's accurate, while GWB's (pre 9/11) attempt caused outrage (including I guess his Dad's old friends telling him to 'lay off').
Then after 9/11 and the Patriot Act the Deep State convinced GWB that they were essential, which lacking alternatives at that time was mostly true, despite obvious failures. They even had some poor CIA guy riding around Iraq on a scooter on the news before the invasion, to show they weren't out of touch - the guy was killed a few weeks later and we all mourned. As a PR stunt it worked.
Was that CIA guy in Iraq or Afghanistan? Actually now I think it was Afghanistan.
I turned against Bill Clinton mid-90s when I saw him claim on live TV that 'India wanted to invade Pakistan' - bizarre, India just wants to maintain its borders especially after it was briefly invaded by China in 1962, with Pakistan's collusion. All these guys have been gaming the US forever through naive State Dept policy it seems to me. They use flattery to manipulate people and diplomats, it's the oldest game on earth, and the bureaucrats fell for it. 'We are helpless without you!'. Why? Because they have unlimited greed. US foreign policy actually NEEDS someone like Trump who's wise to these games, a non-politician businessman who has succeeded around the world on his own is a perfect choice (imagine how much crap he had to get through to build his hotels in strange places). Instead they want to lock him out.
The problem with "Foggy Bottom" - "Deep State" - "the Swamp" is all these career diplomats are utterly convinced that "diplomacy" is the ultimate goal, not one of many means to achieve a goal. Massive and disastrous foreign policy failures become "successes" to these "seasoned diplomatic veterans" because there was "diplomacy".
It's as if “the operation was a success, but the patient died".
Instead they want to lock him out.
All they see is Al Czervik at Bushwood Country Club.
