Reposted by Richard SmithsonMeidasTouch @meidastouch.com · 21hIt’s genuinely sad to watch. The President is so weak and incapable of negotiating a real deal that he just posts fake ones on social media and hopes people believe him, until every party involved puts out a statement calling him a liar. We’ve never seen weakness like this in the Oval Office. 16645281373
