In a Monday afternoon tweet, Trump said the U.N. "is just a club for people to get together, talk and have a good time."

The United Nations has such great potential but right now it is just a club for people to get together, talk and have a good time. So sad! — Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) December 26, 2016

Right on, Donald...and guess what?
They do NOT need our tax dollars and support to “just talk”.
Defund this catastrophe and get us out of it at first opportunity. Turn the building into condos.

One of the biggest advantages of the UN is that it allows the US to listen to every delegate talk to the powers running things back in their host country.

Now it’s all recorded at NSA along with our blog postings.

Trump nails in a Tweet - AGAIN.

Anyone else noticed that Trump is having a bigger - and better for the US and Israel - impact on world affairs by tweeting than Obama did in 8 years as President?
