21. Nothing you said has nothing to do with the tweet I responded to.

The tweet said nothing about unqualified people attempting "diplomacy" with despots. That comes from your mind.

Diplomacy can be the difference between war and peace. Which is why it’s so important that we be willing to meet with anyone, even those who are not our friends, to further the cause of peace. There’s a lot more work to do.

Fact. End of story. And she's not the only person in the world who thinks that. Obama thought that too.

Any sane person will agree with that fact, hate them or not. There is no praise for Trump, Rodman or anyone else. Just a simple fact that you very much have a problem with, based on who tweeted it. If you want no conversation about what she said, it certainly clears up why you posted it.

I'm done with you pulling out everything that has nothing to do the tweet as you posted it or what I agreed with. Have a wonderful day.
