Every leader in each nation needs to stop working with the US govt. Stop thinking you are going to go along to get along.
Until the Judiciary (SCOTUS) & both the US House of Representatives & the US Senate decide to rein him in, the world is in peril. He has no morality.

NYT: “Asked in a wide-ranging interview if there were any limits on his global powers, Mr. Trump said: ‘Yeah, there is one thing. My own morality. My own mind. It’s the only thing that can stop me.’”

According to MAGA, Renee Good, just sitting in her car, is a domestic terrorist, but Kyle Rittenhouse, shooting strangers in the street with an assault weapon, is not.

I can guarantee all the MAGAs shamelessly dehumanizing the woman ICE murdered by saying "she should have listened" have an entire social media history defending Ashlee Babbit for refusing to listen to a police officer as she violently stormed the Capitol to commit insurrection.

I guess that that the extra military budget that the fickle fascist is after would be used for further invasions of other nations, and militarization of American cities.
And Australians will know that some funds may come from our government's $380 billion of #AUKUS bribes.

Trump: "I have determined that, for the Good of our Country, especially in these very troubled and dangerous times, our Military Budget for the year 2027 should not be $1 Trillion Dollars, but rather $1.5 Trillion. This will allow us to build the 'Dream Military' that we have long been entitled to."
