Pundits are - in vain - looking to economics and politics when trying to explain Trump's behavior.

But, in reality, the central place to look if we want to understand Trump and his policies is this:

The psychology of dominance.

📢 From incel forums to women-hating ‘influencers’ like Andrew Tate, platforms are enabling extreme violence against women online.

This dangerous ideology can radicalize young men & put women's lives at risk. Stand against the toxic manosphere, add your name👇
Standing against misogyny

The video of Trump’s deportees arriving in El Salvador is horrific.

This is 21st century Nazism.

Identities concealed, trafficked to a foreign labour camp. No due process, no evidence of crime. Dehumanised.

Where is the global outrage?

The crime is historic; the normalisation catastrophic.

Leader of the UK Liberal Democrats, Sir Ed Davey:

“President Trump’s attack on the brave & dignified President Zelensky left everyone shocked & appalled. We’ve entered a new era. One where the US prefers to align itself with tyrants like Putin rather than its democratic partners”

NEW: Keir Starmer tells House of Commons that “Britain will lead from the front” on Ukraine.

“Russia is a menace in our waters and skies…In this House, we stand by Ukraine because it is the right thing to do.”
