Reagan was a better speaker than Trump even while he had dementia.
He had his acting skills - including learning his lines - burned in to the point where he had to be quite far gone for them to be lost. A good speach writer, and he had several, could make him look good for a long time.
OTOH, Gorbachev found him as easy to wrap around his little finger as Kim, Putin & Xi do with Trump for much the same reason.

Had to go read about it. I am afraid I am more inclined to sympathize with the Japanese in this case. It was not a flag created to symbolize a new and evil movement and there are very negative things that the US, UK, French & Belgian flags flew over as well. Should those flags be banned for those colonialisms and genocides as well?

I have to disagree. The Rising Sun flag is much, much worse than the Confederate flag. Plus it’s not even the national flag of Japan, which is a more apt comparison to the US, UK, French, and Belgian flags.
Would you feel the same if the French were to sport Vichy-era flags?
Even in Koreatown LA the use of Rising Sun imagery is very controversial.
The types of people in Japan that sport the Rising Sun imagery are the equivalent of MAGA rejects in America, spewing anti-Korean epithets and even calling for the expulsion of Zainichi Koreans:

There are a lot of actual MAGAts here who sport the US flag the same way and would like to see all non-whites thrown out. It also flew over the genocide of the native American tribes. Should the US flag be banned?
I am not saying that Korea does not have serious history here and that emotions can run deep. However the rising sun flag goes back to at least the 1600’s according to wiki. That’s still different than a flag invented for a political movement in Germany or for traitors in the Southern US.

The origins go back to the 1600s, but it was explicitly adopted as a flag of Japan’s armed forces in the late 1800s, specifically marrying the symbol to martial practices of the country. And you can’t exactly blame many countries in East Asia for seeing it as a symbol of imperialism due to Japan’s expansionist campaign up to WWII. Again, it’s not even a national flag, but a military flag. While it’s understandably still a symbol of something else in Japan, there’s good reason to limit the amount of intentional use in an international spectacle such as the Olympics. There’s a reason why anime that’s likely to be localized outside of the country tends to concern itself with things like the Manji symbol (卍), and why video game companies such as Atlus made edits like removing a character’s Rising Sun shoe designs in the game Persona 5 when it localized that game for international markets.
Sometimes, it takes awareness to see what cultural symbols might be taken as outside of one’s country. I mean…as someone pointed out, there’s a good parallel with the Confederate flag, as the one we know it wasn’t even their National Flag, but a battle standard, one adopted likely for that reason as a rallying point for racist activism. Yes, the Rising Sun Flag in Japan has actual valid reasons for use in Japan itself, but it’s also still being adopted by racists for racist activism too, and recognizing that is worth something.

Lindsey Graham is getting the vapors, apparently.
On Wednesday, following intense criticism of the intelligence briefing on the Iran strike by Sens. Mike Lee (R-UT) and Rand Paul (R-KY), Lindsey Graham (R-SC) shot back at them ferociously when asked about their concerns by CNN congressional reporter Manu Raju — and accused them of “empowering the enemy.”
“I think they’re overreacting,” he said. “I’m going to let people know … to play this game with the War Powers Act, which I believe is unconstitutional, is that whether you mean to or not, you’re empowering the enemy.”

The Rising Sun flag is still the official ensign of the Japanese Maritime Self-Defense Force (navy in all but name) and Coast Guard.
If they want to fly it in Japan and on military vessels, then I can understand their argument that it is of historic and cultural significance. But flying it in other countries (especially ones that Japan once invaded and occupied) is utterly unnecessary and tasteless.

I’ve been saying this for awhile. Trump will have a very hard time getting reelected because its unlikely that the Democratic nominee will be as unpopular as Clinton was (thanks in great part to msm joining with rightwing media in hating on her) and now people know Trump can win if they cast a third party protest vote. I expect third party voting will be way down in this election.
Trump does not have enough voters who *like him* to get reelected. The only way he wins is if people who oppose him refuse to get on the same page after the primary.

Dang! There’s racism everywhere. I had no idea that any Japanese flag was so controversial.
again, if they want to fly it in Japan, that is one thing, but to fly it in countries they once invaded and occupied can be construed as an affront.
re: #18 BigPapa
The Qiam 1 is a short-range ballistic missile designed and built by Iran. with a range of 750 km and 500 m accuracy
If the missile used has 500m CEP then that was a lucky shot.
All the impacts seem to be on visible features and none of them seem to have been near US or Iraqi personnel. With 500m CEP that is extraordinarily lucky.
I think the Wikipedia claims for 3m CEP for some Iranian missiles, which seemed incredible at the time, are looking a lot nearer the truth than the 500m CEP claimed here.
Vice President Mike Pence told NBC News that the intelligence justifying the killing of Iranian Gen. Qassem Soleimani was “too sensitive” to share with Congress.Said Pence: “Some of the most compelling evidence that Qasem Soleimani was preparing an imminent attack against American forces and American personnel also represents some of the most sensitive intelligence that we have. It could compromise those sources and methods.”
Aside from the obvious lie to cover-up
And that’s not how any of this works
I’ll accept this moronic approach
I will:
Prove this.
Prove is will compromise…
that congress can’t keep secrets, like when it debates declaring wars and stuff or natsec
No don’t give up the actual intelligence
Simply prove just what you said
Well that worked out well: Trump messed up the Iran wag the dog situation so badly, he’s now trying to switch the conversation back to being a victim of impeachment.

Three of Iran’s top strategic goals were the following:
-Get US troops out of Iraq
-Get rid of limits on Iran’s nuclear program
-Get its people to rally behind the Iranian government
The decisions by @realDonaldTrump delivered all three goals to Iran.— Ted Lieu (@tedlieu) January 8, 2020
Be skeptical: The executive routinely shares highly-classified information with lawmakers, particularly Gang of 8, who are notified about covert actions.

That’s not how it works.
If you have “the most sensitive intelligence” you do not tell people about it. You do not act on it unless you can find some other believable explanation. Churchill let the Nazis bomb Coventry because he could not find any way to pretend they knew about the raid without revealing Enigma.
Just saying “we had the most sensitive intelligence about what Soleimani was preparing” is exposing the source.

AFAICT - and a quick Wiki probe can confirm - it’s the other way round: many (most?) Iranian ballistic missile systems are domestically made, but derived from North Korean designs/originals (NoKo: Arsenal Of Dictatorship). Their origins go back, ultimately, to old Soviet-era weapons systems, but have been continually up-engineered and up-teched. Which the Norks have made into a (?) thriving export business, and which the Iranians latched onto. Their latest generation of missiles are, I think, the Fateh series: SRBMs whose main improvements seem to been to their guidance systems. Which investment seems to have been borne out if the Al-Asad/Erbil attacks are the evidence.

There were other actors, such as the Iranians who fired the missiles, but I won’t disagree that he definitely owns it.
Trump just said that Nancy Pelosi and the Democrats are “defending Soilemani” and then a reporter somehow asked a question that was *not* a demand that he provide an example of how they’re “defending Soilemani.”

Asked re his vague call for NATO to get more involved in the Middle East, Trump says he has come up with a “beautiful” name, “NATOME,” for NATO Middle East. He says he is great at names, like USMCA, which is like the song YMCA. “Doesn’t that work beautifully?…’NATO’ plus ‘ME.’”

Or Grindr.
The Grindr date charged with murdering hairdresser Kevin Bacon — allegedly slitting his throat before stringing him up from then rafters and eating his testicles — had been stopped a month earlier chasing a half-naked man who was “terrified” at being chained in his basement, according to a report.
Mark Latunski, 50, was stopped outside his rural Michigan home on Nov. 25 as he chased a 29-year-old man who was only wearing a leather kilt, Michigan State Police told The Flint Journal-MLive.
Latunski insisted he was just trying to get back his $300 kilt — but the younger man told officers he fled after being chained in the basement, the report says.

And even if our ass-kissing “MSM” ever noted this, it’s unlikely to make a difference. One thing Trump does know is his audience, and what his audience expects. He could stick a mic down his pants and broadcast his farts, and there would be a nontrivial segment of the RW media who would loudly cheer him for his “bold” and “unprecedented” “telling it like it is”…..

Welcome to the third world, Americans.
Similar to when the USS Vincennes shot down Iranian flight 655 back in 1988 after the ship was involved in a shooting incident with speedboats. War gets real messy and decision making is accelerated past safety limits. Horrible all around.

Damn, I was too subtle:
The 9M730 Burevestnik (Russian: Буревестник; “Petrel”, NATO reporting name: SSC-X-9 Skyfall) is a Russian experimental nuclear-powered, nuclear-armed cruise missile under development for the Russian Armed Forces. The missile is claimed to have virtually unlimited range.
With, for extra Dr Strangelove vibes:
The Poseidon (Russian: Посейдон, “Poseidon”, NATO reporting name Kanyon), previously known by Russian codename Status-6 (Russian: Статус-6), is an autonomous, nuclear-powered, and nuclear-armed unmanned underwater vehicle under development by Rubin Design Bureau, capable to deliver both conventional and nuclear payloads.
The Poseidon warhead can contaminate a large area with radiation. According NukeMap simulations, the size of the radioactive area will be about 1700×300 kilometers. For this purpose, the Poseidon is believed to be equipped with a toxic cobalt bomb, containing cobalt-60.
You’ve obviously never heard of cobalt thorium G!
