Again, "We're going to take 🇨🇦 & 🇬🇱" really should have ended it. But then, "we're going to blow up the transatlantic alliance" really should have ended it. But then, "we're going to unplug large chunks of the government" really should have ended it." Etc. Etc. What exactly are folks waiting for?
Again, presidency-ending stuff for anyone from Truman to Obama. Wildly irresponsible while 🇷🇺 is occupying 18% of 🇺🇦. A party that tolerates this from its leader is unfit for ever being in charge of 🇺🇸 national security again.

JD Vance’s Munich Security Conference speech has gone down well…in Moscow. Komsomolskaya Pravda headline: “Humiliated Europe out for the count. Its American master flogged its old vassals.”

We talk about values because it’s *why* we shoot.
Hegseth at NATO summit: "We can talk all we want about values. Values are important. But you can't shoot values."

Also, no previous president has been so aggressively stupid about international power politics and international political economy. Taking these steps would destroy dollar hegemony; even threatening to take these steps accelerates the decline of dollar hegemony.
