"I really good at predicting things, I don't say that in a bragadocious way, but I'm always right."

"I'm really good at this stuff, your countries are going to hell" - Donald Trump to the rest of the world.

#Trump at #UNGA80 transitions from compaining about UN, including decor, to talking about weapons of mass destruction weapons, and how the US has successfully used theirs for peace (not to be ignored is his plug of Nobel Peace Prize)

Then #Trump reverts back to complaining about #UN decor.

He then riffed on the lack of assistance from #TheUN like someone very privileged complaining to their therapist about how their parents never loved them. "Only thing UN ever gave me was a broken escalator . . . and a broken teleprompter."

More interesting #Trump #UNGA80 statements:
He's ended 7 wars, raging with "countless thousand of people being killed" in 7 months. "No other country has ever done anything close to that."
