Ironic that Trump is saying
"It’s nice to be able to cut people because of merit that aren’t really qualified for any reason, a physical reason, a mental reason, you don’t have to take them anymore..."
while he got a deferment. Perhaps if he was not fit enough to serve, he shouldn't be leading.

I read Hegseth was warning our "allies and friends" about the possible aggression of China. Funny, I don't think I would be surprised if those allies in Asia would be reluctant to follow this guy. Friend and allies don't put tariffs on one another.

Let me see if I have this right. Trump imposes tariffs - creates a problem. He goes to the negotiation table, lowers tariffs, and pats himself on the back for a job well done - solves the problem he created. Got it...

I knew he would blink and China knew he would blink. I just knew it. Every day something new happens and a smile makes its way to my face and I realize the push back is working.

of course they are. I think people are unaware of the money tourism brings into the economy, but per the article "could amount to a US$18 billion (£13.8 billion) annual reduction in tourist spending in 2025." this is another cost of tariffs.

Trump seems to have problems with world leader titles, so how about we just refer to Trump as Madame VP and Mr. Musk as Madame President of US and Starlink..

I'm keeping up with the so called "peace talks" in the Russia-Ukraine war. This stinks much like the US / Taliban negotiation in Afghanistan. When will the U.S. government (Trump) learn to butt the F out of things he doesn't understand?

Disgusting. We have a leader who is pushing the country into a private war. One which holds no meaning to the U.S. interests. Israel should have stopped the madness a long time ago.
