There are many close runners-up in this administration. And like the original Baghdad Bob, they speak to an audience of one.

iirc, we didn't see much of Saddam during the invasion. "Bob" was the regime's public face. Trump insists that he be the center of attention, at all times, so he is the most prolific spewer of counter-factual delusions. The other hangers on, like Kegsbreth and Vance, are playing to an audience of one, feeding Trump the God's delusions.

Here's a piece from Ben Meiselas. A couple of interesting bits: at the 3:15 mark, discussion of unusually large sales of Brent crude futures, just before Trump the Peacemaker blathered his latest "peace is at hand" bit. At the 10:35 mark, the US announces extending Russian sanction relief for another month. Lukashenko signing on to Trump's "Board of Peace" bribe laundering scheme, and Belarus receiving sanction relief. At 14:30 an Iranian proposing that Trump make all those claims on Friday, which were immediately denied by Iran, so that, in a few days, Trump the Conqueror can complain that Iran welshed on all those promises, and he can use that as an excuse to resume the war.

If God on Earth, Defender of the Faith, Trump, resumes the war, it will be interesting what Kelly and Bannon have to say, after congratulating him on finding enough backbone to stand up to "Bibi".
