Year of the horse-and asses and donkeys too, presumably View(s):This year dawned rather inauspiciously, if one is permitted a euphemism where the cantankerous President Trump is concerned. On January 3, that great man in the sky who believes he rules the world let loose his dogs of war. Just to sum up, he literally stole Venezuela’s ruling president and his wife, probably unaware that stealing is a criminal offence. I am certainly not aware of asses and donkeys being added to edify a US president. In fact, it was this US base that hastened Sri Lanka to try and push through the resolution in the UNGA, which passed quite easily.
