For anyone who's interested, James O'Brien is discussing Trump's comments about NATO on his programme this morning with traumtaised ex-military and bereaved families phoning in.
Callers in tears at the sense of betrayal and anger.
It makes for difficult listening.

"He has emptied ashtrays over our graves."

Donald Trump has insulted the 457 British troops who fought and died in Afghanistan.

@mrjamesob.bsky.social asks: Is this the worst thing he's ever done?

UK tourist Becky Burke was arrested by ICE in the USA and kept in handcuffs and chains for 19 days before being deported back to Wales.

Her 'crime', doing unpaid work in return for accomodation (which isn't illegal).

This is the evil of Donald Trump's USA, DON'T GO.

Trump’s Board of Peace logo is basically the UN logo, except dipped in gold and edited so the world only includes America.

Trump is now confusing Greenland and Iceland: "They're not there for us on Iceland, that I can tell you. Our stock market took the first dip yesterday because of Iceland. So Iceland has already cost us a lot of money."

Trump presenting a twisted, chauvinistic history of WW2 at Davos. Suggesting US fought for Europe and Denmark out of altruism. Conveniently forgets Pearl Harbour and Soviet competition.

Suggests that Denmark can’t have Greenland because they surrendered to the Nazis.

This is proof that it's nothing to do with America's security.

He was claiming he wanted to take Greenland because us Europeans wasn't doing enough to protect it.

So we stepped up and started sending troops there to protect it.

The response? He punishes us for protecting it...
