Everytime this pig opens his mouth, he drags our country lower into the gutter. Facts: Per capita, the Danish people lost more soldiers in Afghanistan than any coalition nation. Per capita, the U.K. suffered losses at about the same rate as the U.S.

Trump on NATO: "I've always said, will they be there if we ever needed them? That's really the ultimate test. I'm not sure of that. We've never needed them. They'll say they sent some troops to Afghanistan and this or that. And they did. They stayed a little back, off the front lines."

Trump is ranting and hallucinating now, before a world audience, on live TV. While our decades-long allies talk about how to protect themselves.
Anyone who sounded the way he does, RIGHT NOW, would be moved from "main" part of assisted living facility to the memory unit.
Hey GOP: just listen.

I agree.
Cong Dems cannot make this happen. But they should be calling for it.
-The world's most important alliance is being destroyed by one mentally disturbed man.
-That man outright says there is *no* limit on his power except his own "morality"[sic]. Including to make war
Which side are we on?

The 25th Amendment must be invoked by the cabinet. I’m all for pressuring them. Congressional Dems should lead the charge. Not on Bluesky or Threads. Let’s do it.
Invoke the 25th Amendment.

Big mistake @netflix.com. No need to match an offer that has already been deemed inferior. Stick with your cash and stock deal, or watch it all unravel.

Five years ago, Donald Trump instigated a violent insurrection in the Capitol to prevent Congress from certifying Joe Biden the winner of the 2020 election. The fact that the GOP coddled him, protected him, renominated him, and now support him in office, is a stain that will never be erased.

Less than 24 hours in, members of the Trump team are celebrating victory. None of them seem to have wondered what happens a day, a month, a decade from now.

The only sitting president who should “face the full wrath of American justice on American soil in American courts” is #Trump. But thanks to #JohnRoberts corrupt #SCOTUS & a puppet #GOP #Congress, he's playing war games instead of rotting in Club Fed. This will not end well. #Venezuela #ImpeachTrump
