This is how appeasement of Trump affects you.

UK Govt will pay 25% more to US companies for NHS drugs, bigger corporate profits.

UK to Pay of another £7bn a year.

Impact - Britons pay higher taxes, face cuts in public services, or face misery and premature death.

Some special relationship!

Appeasing Trump.

OECD exempts US companies from global minimum tax rules. Trump binned previous treaty.

UK to pay 25% more for drugs sold to the NHS by US companies.

UK remuneration of private equity execs taxed as capital gain instead of wages. Capital gains taxed at lower rate than wages.
Donald Trump’s imperialism is the latest tool to advance the hegemony of US capital
Trump's policies are not isolationism. They're seeking to thwart the emergence of a multipolar world.

This is the playbook

Lie, lie and lie again

use your outriders to spark endless discussions about whether what you saw is real

Deracinate facts until truth is meaningless

Then democracy itself becomes meaningless

When Americans insist "it can't happen here," they’re wrong. A sociologist who studies collective memory and identity examines how the U.S. forgot its own fascist movements and what that collective amnesia means today.

Marco Rubio is reportedly saying Maduro will stand trial in US courts.
