Everyone is overthinking everything. He believes tariffs are good and that trade deficits are akin to theft. That’s it. I don’t think there’s any plan deeper than that.

Couldn’t agree more. We will never recover from this. Why should anyone ever EVER trust us or side with us on the global stage.
Waking up and seeing what happened in the Oval Office... wow.

It's hard to over-state just how significant it is here, outside America, to watch the President of the United States sell out an ally so publicly in favor of a tyrant like Putin.

That will do generational damage to the US reputation.

This is insane. If you wonder why some of us think the rule of law is about to fall, it's this.

The U.S. Attorney for DC is not "President Trump's lawyer" and its job is not to "protect his leadership" nor prosecute people who "refuse to put America first".

FDA Food chief on his decision to leave FDA: “The secretary’s comments impugning the integrity of the food staff, asserting they are corrupt based on falsities, is a disservice to everyone."
