I understand that this would delight the America first crowd and their ideological allies in Russia. My question is more what level of aggression makes the status quo untenable. If American forces fire on EU troops for example…

The EU cut a deal with Trump on tariffs, hoping it would get him off their backs. Hopefully they have learned the lesson: any concession simply invites more demands. The only way to beat a bully is to tell him to go to hell.

We don't need to play games parsing US law or international treaties to figure out if it's legal for Trump to do this. It's not. It's crystal clear it's all illegal. Everyone's just pretending we're not at the point where the thing to do is to remove him. It's an advanced state of political denial.
Again, I’m going to keep banging the drum that the fact we are threatening the territorial sovereignty of our closest allies is not only a gross violation of our UN & NATO treaty obligations & poses a massive threat to national security & world order but also should immediately end this presidency.
