POMPEO: "We can't ignore this truth. And just as we have done with other horrible regimes like the one in China, the Trump Administrations will look to this as it is, not as we wish it to be." Check it out: https://s3.amazonaws.com/quodverum/media_attachments/files/001/370/038/original/d29a6fc9f549621c.mp4 DID YOU CATCH IT? "The Trump AdministrationS" PLURAL. This was not lazy speech. Fully intentional.

Not only the plural of the word, but he used present tense WILL.
They are on the way out in 7 days so really should be all about tidying up and transitioning power and info to the incoming admin. Why would they still continue to work on things that the Biden admin may have a completely different approach to. Makes no sense.
Would have made more sense to say "The Trump Administration looked to this as it is not how we wished it to be."
If as someone suggest he was using Administrations as a possessive not plural still doesn't work "the Trump Administration's whatever he stopped himself saying will look to this." Still should have used past tense if he was talking about how the Trump Administration viewed things during their term.
It really doesn't sound like an Administration that is on the out to me.
I feel like a schizo lol
I feel like the scene with the poison cups in The Princess Bride.
Said that 2 days ago.
Was this on Voice of America?
whew, tell me about it? I use common sense a lot and it hasn't been working lately. I go back to the "Game theory" and it seems to make sense.
Agree 1,000,000%!!!!!
These men and their positions require extreme care, attention to detail. You see how WE interpret, analyze, over-analyze, and rip apart each & every word that comes out of POTUS & his Administrations' mouths; foreign countries do the exact same thing.
Men like Pompeo HAVE TO BE insanely careful with each & every utterance they make, for it could be dangerously misconstrued by a hostile country.
Literally they could start a war with their words.
So if you think each & every single syllable isn't carefully planned & scripted......I just don't know what to tell you.....
If you listen CAREFULLY to each word Trump, Pompeo & Others; Ratcliffe, Flynn, etc; each & every word they say AND THE ACTIONS THEY HAVE BEEN TAKEN SINCE THE ELECTION:
Viewed as a whole; the words & actions of EVERYONE in & close to Trump, are NOT the words & actions of an administration that is leaving soon.
Not even close.
Moar Covfefe!!!! :-D
Hostage state of the DS so there is always a threat to world peace.
Right; and that was on purpose. The whole situation & dance between Trump & NK was a very carefully choreographed show.

Notice how everything being done & emphasized now is about communication, security, safety.
If trump were really on the way out, he would also throw in the national parks restoration project, greatest funding of the parks ever. Made what teddy Roosevelt do look like chump change.
Don't you just love grammar? I sure do.
