Kerry to Abbas confidante: 'Stay strong and do not give in to Trump'
The former US Secretary of State also surprised his interlocutor by saying he was seriously considering running for president in 2020.
While the White House confirms that since the "Jerusalem Declaration" there has been a complete disconnect between the Palestinian Authority and the Trump administration, it turns out that the previous administration actually maintains contact with PA officials. Ma'ariv reported that former US Secretary of State John Kerry met in London with a close associate of Palestinian Authority President Mahmoud Abbas, Hussein Agha, for a long and open conversation about a variety of topics. Agha apparently reported details of the conversation to senior PA officials in Ramallah. A senior PA official confirmed to Ma'ariv that the meeting took place....
During the conversation, according to the report, Kerry asked Agha to convey a message to Abbas and ask him to "hold on and be strong." Tell him, he told Agha, "that he should stay strong in his spirit and play for time, that he will not break and will not yield to President Trump's demands." According to Kerry, Trump will not remain in office for a long time. It was reported that within a year there was a good chance that Trump would not be in the White House....
According to the report, referring to the president, Kerry used derogatory terms and even worse. Kerry offered to help create an alternative peace initiative and promised to help garner international support, among others, of Europeans, Arab states and the international community. Kerry hinted that many in the American establishment, as well as in American intelligence, are dissatisfied with Trump's performance and the way he leads America. He surprised his interlocutor by saying he was seriously considering running for president in 2020. When asked about his advanced age, he said he was not much older than Trump and would not have an age problem.
In a report on the conversation, Agha said that Kerry appears to be "crazy about things," very energetic, and someone who is yearning to help realize the dream of peace between Israelis and Palestinians. Kerry explained, according to the report, that even in the Republican Party they do not know what to do with Trump and are very dissatisfied with him and that patience and breathing time are needed to get through this difficult period....
Trump Derangement Syndrome? Sedition? Has he been in contact with Mueller? Or is this just part of the Dem plan to impeach Trump after winning the 2018 mid-term elections?
Note: This conversation apparently took place recently while Pence was in the Middle East.

Now that Kerry has exposed himself to being charged for sedition he can be considered an "enemy combatant", and therefore be tried in a military court.

Damn Twitter is a cesspool.
If citizens act against the US they can be considered enemy combatants. This opens them up to a military trial. That's been true since 9/11, and was also true during WWII.Bald Messiah said:It was only a week or so ago that it was absurd to suggest military trials for American citizens.TexAgs91 said:drcrinum said:

CNN)More than a year after the 2016 presidential election, former Democratic nominee Hillary Clinton's favorability rating has dropped to a new low, according to a Gallup poll released Tuesday.
The poll showed 36% of respondents rated Clinton favorably compared to 61% who rated her unfavorably, which is a new high for that measure. Gallup said this beat out her previous low of 38% at the outset of the general election last year and in 1992 when she was not yet a household name.
I'm not sure where I read the theory about her book and excuse tour. I'll look for that.Quote:
Gallup's poll marked a five-point drop in the former secretary of state's favorability rating since June, when a poll of national adults showed 41% rated her favorably.

Since losing to Trump, Clinton's favorable ratings have not improved, in contrast to what has happened for other recent losing presidential candidates. In fact, her image has gotten worse in recent months as Democratic leaders, political observers and Clinton herself have attempted to explain how she lost an election that she was expected to win.
I hope so.IDAGG said:TexAgs91 said:

If you read this statement closely, Schiff is accusing a member of congress, specifically a member of the freedom caucus, of discussing this memo with the POTUS! Like that's some kind of crime.drcrinum said:
