Yeah, I know.  Some still think Obama passed some awesome health care reform, and ended the war in the Middle East.  Bailed out GM and Chrysler with what, more than $60 Billion?  He also made unemployment better, right?  And he sure put Iran in their place.  Solyndra, the Bowe Bergdahl swap... just to name a few.  The good news is that he has made it easier for Trump to improve upon the presidency overall.

Hardly.

 

Sure I wouldn't mind a grand piano, but I would never get a white one. Only Liberace should own a white grand piano.

The gilding and mirrored ceiling, no one should own. Doesn't matter how expensive it is or how rich you are. It's horribly tacky. There are things trump owns that I would like I'm sure, but nothing in that photograph.

The Trump Tower penthouse looks like some Fragonard cherubs vomited ormolu all over the place. There are tasteful ways to do excess, but this is not one of them.

Tasteful and Donald Trump simply don't go together.

Barack Obama’s announcement that Washington will avenge alleged Russian efforts to interfere in the US election with new sanctions and the expulsion of 35 diplomats has focused attention once again on Russia’s main intelligence directorate, the GRU.

Powerful and mysterious, the GRU is one of the country’s three intelligence agencies and was itself put under sanction on Thursday, along with four individual officers and three companies the US claims provided material support to its cyber operations.

Russia also has the FSB and SVR. The former is the sprawling structure that absorbed most parts of the KGB, while the latter is the part that focused on spying abroad, which became a new structure in modern Russia. The GRU, the intelligence wing of the Russian army, has always been separate entity.

All three run agents and missions abroad, but US intelligence has come to believe that the GRU took the lead in hacking operations, though there has been no concrete evidence provided publicly to definitively link it to the hacks. The US sanctions also hit the FSB, but all four individuals named are high-ranking GRU officials. 

Donald Trump has scorned US intelligence agencies’ assessments of Russian hacking. His spokeswoman, Kelly Ann Conway, told CNN: “The GRU doesn’t really travel here, doesn’t keep its assets here.” 

Experts say this is not true. “The GRU is an active, aggressive and extensive intelligence agency, with all kinds of assets in the US,” said Mark Galeotti, a specialist on the Russian security and intelligence services.

“The GRU is a military intelligence agency, which makes it especially willing to take risks, but in the competitive world of Russian spying it doesn’t confine itself to military secrets but hunts everything from insider business information to political gossip.”

Putin just made Obama look like an Idiot again by his actions.   Just shows how sharp he is at being a leader, He is 5 steps ahead of Obama.

At what cost though?

In order to make Obama look like an idiot, Trump made himself look like he is wanking Putin's knob under the table. What a great President we'll have, someone who will gladly give Putin a handjob instead of respect US sovereignty.

How do we know this is taken inside Trump's house?  Maybe it's in a professional photographer's studio?

 

There are lots of photos out there that show rooms like this and say that it is his penthouse in Trump Tower. 

If it was just a photographer's studio, fire the photographer.

It only cost Obama his dignity.  Putin just basically told him you are nothing and your leadership is not taken seriously.  Putin will wait till Trump takes over the Whitehouse.  As said by others here, it like he is treating Dumbo like a child.   Time to wait for the adults and men to take over.

So it’s probably no surprise that the tickets sold out. Incoming White House Press Secretary Sean Spicer gave reporters the news on a Friday press call. He also noted that more than 800 guests are expected, including actor Sylvester Stallone and music producer Quincy Jones.

Despite Spicer’s assertion that Jones was expected to be present, the legendary music producer tweeted on Friday night that he would be spending New Year’s Eve in Los Angeles with family and friends. Jones’ daughter Kenya Kinski-Jones called the claim that her father would attend the event “false information” and a “total lie.”

Trump has hosted similar star-studded New Year’s Eve parties at Mar-a-Lago many times in the past, including last year, when his presidential campaign was in full swing. But this year he’s about to assume the highest office in the land.

Norm Eisen, who served as ethics counselor to President Barack Obama, had a one-word response to the spectacle:

The Trump transition team did not respond to HuffPost queries about the cost of the tickets and whether the president-elect is concerned about any conflicts of interest the party could generate.

Trump has struggled to quiet criticism that his sprawling international business will create multiple conflicts of interest for his presidency. He announced this past Saturday that he would be closing his charitable foundation to avoid the perception of such problems, but he has not laid out any plan to divest from his company and place his assets in a blind trust, as ethics experts recommend.

Putin doesn't take Obama's leadership seriously because Obama actually has leadership. Putin is waiting for his boy toy to enter the white house so that he can continue to receive love and adoration.

Seriously calling Trump an "adult" is the biggest joke of all.
