WASHINGTON (AP) — President Donald Trump says he thinks it's great that China's president now holds that office for life and muses that maybe the U.S. will do the same someday.

Trump's remarks were met with laughter and applause during a luncheon for Republican donors Saturday at his South Florida estate. CNN said it obtained a recording of the remarks.

Chinese President Xi Jinping recently consolidated power. Trump told the gathering: "He's now president for life. President for life. And he's great." Trump added, "I think it's great. Maybe we'll give that a shot someday."

Trump criticized his Democratic presidential opponent Hillary Clinton, repeated his view about "a rigged system," and called the Iraq invasion "the single worst decision ever made." He referred to former President George W. Bush as "another real genius."

I heard that off the cuff remark and think it's just him joking. Can't take everything the guy says seriously. If he ever attempted something like that, he would be thrown to the dogs.

He's great. Maybe we'll give that a try here someday.

Holy fuck could your head be any further up Trump's ass? Can't you just say one time that his comment was stupid as fuck? He completely trashed your first post in this thread.

Christ, OBK, the Celestials have always had an Emperor going back many thousands of years. It is their natural state of affairs. Doesn't have a god damned thing to do with socialism or communism.

With every Trump Trigger Tweet I'm always amazed how he gets you to jump on command.

Just glad to see your support for a communist dictator.

We all know how to call you home, too, Pavlov.

China is going to China how I feel about it is irrelevant

Oh, Trump just tweeted again Jump, bitch

Funny...wasn't some idiot in the NYTimes telling us we should be more like China a while back?

And anyone who doesn't realize Trump is just trolling the nutjobs out there (HI HondoFS!) you might want to take a step back and get some perspective...although if you can't see that its probably not possible in your state of mind.

Trump is trolling the nutjobs? Glad to see you can finally admit it.

Speaking of another nutjob that apparently got trolled...

Nothing goes over the head of @HoustonHusky This guy “gets it.”

I appreciate the "Trump is trolling you" response. It's your admission that Trump is fucktarded and you have nothing else to say.

Ironic.

Trump is shit posting. White House now keeps company with youtube comments.

anybody know when Trump is gonna announce?

I'm sure it has nothing to do with the round of laughter he got after joking about it.

HondoFS...

Yeah, because nobody ever does that here or anything. [eyes on full roll]

Some idiot in the NY Times

Seems clear to me

That idiot Friedman just outed @creepycoug and he's not a lawyer after all:

“Globalization has neutered the Republican Party, leaving it to represent not the have-nots of the recession but the have-nots of globalized America, the people who have been left behind either in reality or in their fears,” said Edward Goldberg, a global trade consultant who teaches at Baruch College. “The need to compete in a globalized world has forced the meritocracy, the multinational corporate manager, the eastern financier and the technology entrepreneur to reconsider what the Republican Party has to offer. In principle, they have left the party, leaving behind not a pragmatic coalition but a group of ideological naysayers.”

A Baruch College consultant is your source?

PS: like 3 guys who enthusiastically poast in the Tug will have a shot at understanding that passage. and sledog is not one of them.
