Trump looks to turn attention to Western Hemisphere, at least for a moment, at a regional summit

The leaders of Argentina, Bolivia, Chile, Costa Rica, the Dominican Republic, Ecuador, El Salvador, Guyana, Honduras, Panama, Paraguay, and Trinidad and Tobago have confirmed they will take part in the gathering at the Republican president’s Trump National Doral Miami, a golf resort where he is also set to host the Group of 20 summit later this year.

Before the summit, Trump announced that he was naming Kristi Noem, whom he just removed as his Department of Homeland Security secretary, as his special envoy for the Shield of the Americas.

Noem said Trump will announce “a big agreement” at the summit centered on “how we’re going to go after cartels and drug trafficking in the entire Western Hemisphere.”

We know that Generalissimo Trump really doesn't give a hoot about drugs. Drugs are nothing but a politically correct excuse.

God on Earth Trump starts out by only talking to like minded people. No differing viewpoints allowed. Typical "JC" move. SecState Rubio has been tasked with trying to buy off the Cuban leadership. A right wing influencer is saying the war with Cuba will start, soon, perhaps, this weekend. Another report says Rubio will be made Generalissimo of Cuba.

Cenk did a hilarious routine about how Trump the Magnificent's NeoCon cadre manipulates him into launching war after war, by telling him what a big man he will be in the world.

Cenk's riff starts around the 9 minute mark.
