This is pretty much exactly like a European saying the United States should be abolished, so that the governments of individual states can better represent their people.

We Europeans are in grave danger. Incredibly, this time the danger comes from the east as well as from the west.
Press: "What kind of concessions are the Russians going to have to make?"
Trump "Their big concession is they stop fighting and they don't take any more land."
Yeah. That's basically how surrendering works.

Then CBS does a 73 minute interview of Trump where they made big edits from the version that was broadcast.

Lam took a bunch of X posts from far-right racists and so-called "thinktanks" and turned them into a policy that collapsed as soon as anyone actually read it/understood it.

Politics isn’t a dirty word, it’s the fabric of how we live together.
When people say “don’t make it political,” what they mean is “don’t make me uncomfortable.”
Everything’s political: who eats, who heals, who’s safe.
Privilege is pretending it isn’t.
