The Unmasking of the Un-U.N.

Bringing Tears to Their Eyes

Fausta looks at President Trump's UN presentation:

"Bonus: He did not need to say, “Let me be clear.” He was."

She also makes this important point:

"The purpose of the UN, as delineated in the speech.
Elliot Abrams (h/t Just One Minute) explains it (emphasis added),

He reminded the delegates that the United Nations was never meant to be a gigantic bureaucracy that would steadily become a world government. Rather, he said, it is an association of sovereign states whose strength depends “on the independent strength of its members.” Its success, he argued, depends on their success at governing well as “strong, sovereign, and independent nations.”
Trump cleverly turned patriotism — love of one’s own country, and what he called the necessary basis for sacrifice and “all that is best in the human spirit” — into the basis for international cooperation to solve problems that nations must face together

Latin Americans view the UN and other international, non-elected, supra-national organizations (such as the International Court of Justice) as saviors of sorts – regardless of corruption and other scandals. They would do well to live by this instead...".......

Indeed(tm).

The Iran Deal was a treaty Iran negotiated with itself. Both the American people and the Iranian people were shut out of the process. Obama's role was to make it look like there were two parties to the negotiations and get the best possible deal for Iran without giving the game away by making the treason too obvious.

Let me be clear:

The goal of the Deal is to give Iran political cover until it gets nukes. EVERYTHING ELSE IS JUST WORDS TO DISGUISE THAT CENTRAL FACT.

It is not meant to paralyze Iran--it is meant to paralyze the West. Much of OfficialWashington(tm)--those not actively on #TeamAyatollah, I mean--cling in vain to this scrap of paper. But that is all it is, and all it will ever be.

As a bottom-line business guy, Trump is not invested in their fiction. But as a bottom-line patriot, he is invested in America.

Are you?
