I highlighted that area just to emphasize it. I am not a clinician by any means but DJTs irrationality gives me cause to wonder about his state of mind. Especially his choice of Secretary of Health....who is completely unhinged.

I was under the impression, and they themselves have repeatedly said that everything they do is above board?

The image that immediately comes to mind, a dog giving away it's guilt of doing something you haven't even discovered yet.

US ambassador on the new strategy: "Let's just kind of see how this plays out ... It can be interpreted in a bunch of different ways."

Hoekstra downplays fears of Trump administration meddling in Canada's politics

OTTAWA - U.S. Ambassador to Canada Pete Hoekstra is downplaying concerns America's new national security strategy could lead to his government supporting political movemements in Canada.

www.thecanadianpressnews.ca

After all, when has the U.S. (like many other superpowers) EVER meddled in a country when said country wasn't doing what the U.S. (or major businesses therein) wanted, right?

Also the U.S. ambassador to the Canadian Press: " "I don't remember many Canadians expressing much concern about the political engagement of a Canadian government into U.S. politics," he said, after describing Ontario's fall ad campaign as a "specifically targeted political intervention against the president."

Many think the ad can be interpreted in a bunch of different ways, too

Pete Hoekstra should be sent packing back to his master in Washington. The guy is incompetent and has stirred up a sh*t-storm at each of his postings.
