It is pretty scary when a President with a failed foreign policy chooses to receive input from foreign policy advisors on a failed network notoriously inept and completely out of step with the American people.\u00a0 With the President relying on this level of expertise for advice it is increasingly difficult to be an optimist.<\/p>\n<p>TDM<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I have tried to watch MSNBC on rare occasion and always come away with astonishment that anyone would watch this nonsense.\u00a0 They are so far off the mark it is laughable.\u00a0 It is almost like watching a Will Farrell parody &hellip; <a href=\"https:\/\/scotshonor.com\/?p=2840\">Continue reading <span class=\"meta-nav\">&rarr;<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_coblocks_attr":"","_coblocks_dimensions":"","_coblocks_responsive_height":"","_coblocks_accordion_ie_support":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-2840","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-latest-headlines"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.6 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/product\/yoast-seo-wordpress\/ -->\n<title>THE CLATTER OF THE CLUELESS!
