Trump is in talks with Russia to end the war

I'm using "bloviating" in my job quite a bit, thanks to you!

It's a polite way of telling someone that they are talking bollox.

It fits Trump exactly.  
Bloviating.

You don't live here so you might not know ... but New York business men are known for self promoting and bloviating and grifting.  What you are seeing with Trumps personality is to be expected coming from that city.  The serial adulterer thing ... I think that is all him ... that's not part of the 'persona' of a New York businessman like those other things are.

wow is literally impossible for this thread to stay on topic even when there is perfectly cromulant neurosis thread active too. not criticizing anyone here but it is interesting trump phenomena he is like tarbaby sticky disagreement and controversy anything he's involved in. impossible to make narrow! has inescapable reality vortex around everything he's involved in. maybe a post-truth thing? two different factsets, no facts anymore. weird.

"Cromulent" is right up there with "embiggens".

I believe we can thank the Simpsons for those.

Oh. Apologies. Was mistakenly thinking this was the Trump Neurosis thread.

I'll get my coat.

Trump and Putin to have a talk on Tuesday of this week, at Putin's convenience, of course.

I looked at Putins list of demands.
He'll probably get most of them.
the NATO one for sure.   Keeping certain lands probably.
But the one saying 'no foreign troops in Ukraine' will be sticky.
The United Nations will be putting peace keepers in place.
Russia is part of the United Nations.  
The UN 'troops' are a useless joke.
But still ... they could qualify as 'foreign troops' to Russia.
They shouldn't ... but Putin will call them that if he doesn't want the peace deal.
He'll use it as an excuse.

Yes.

I wonder what cards Trump will play?

A legacy mad spirit embiggens the smallest man.

In the Eastern version karma isn't simply "what goes around comes around" as it is out west. It's more like a role. And Trump is here to make sure he will be remembered as great with his active kriyamana karma. Which becomes our collective kriyamana karma. The today for the next karma.

And his live's karmic role could possibly be to release Cthulhu from beneath the bottom of the sea.
