I know this may sound mad. But I think Trumpism has at last hit reality and everyone else has thought 'this shit ain't for me' so from now on it's about how we handle orange cunt and let America decline. Rather than how we work with America in hope

Two conclusions from the amazing Trump turnaround on Greenland:
1. If you're firm, and have sufficient power, he will back down.
2. The most powerful man in the world is visibly losing his marbles. And we have up to 3 more years of this to survive…

I didn’t realize the NATO chief had the authority to give away a member country’s sovereignty. Is that in the charter or is Rutte trying to deflect from widespread mockery in Europe after Trump posted more of his slobbering text messages after he previously called him his daddy?

Keir Starmer’s total lack of interest in oratory, in the power of words, is one of his biggest failings.
The country and Western world is crying out for someone to make sense of it all (e.g. Carney’s speech) and Starmer is stuck in platitude-land
