In the first Trump admin, Americans used “I didn’t vote for this” as a shield
We should be clear: that’s gone now
We’re near the event horizon of something really bad—and this time every American should be ready to own the death toll & despair. Unless we stop it

Having served as a Moscow correspondent in the early days of Putin's reign, this reminds me of how the Kremlin took over its own press pool and made sure that only compliant journalists were given access.

Just when you think Donald Trump cannot sink lower or be more shameful, today he's blaming Ukraine for the war and calling Zelinsky a dictator, when he knows perfectly well that Putin's constant re-elections are put-up jobs.

Russian rulers often gain an epithet. Ivan 'The Terrible' being an example.
Putin has been been in power longer than most.
What epithet will history assign?
Vladimir The Ratmaster?
V. The Mad?
V. The Gnome?
Please engage in this crucial question of our time ☺️.
