EUROPA.

Het verdrag van Maastricht is toe aan een herziening, we zullen om het hoofd te bieden in deze onzekere Wereld het verdrag moeten aanpassen.

Een Verenigde Staten van Europa lost heel veel problemen en bureaucratie in deze op.

Gezamenlijk schouders eronder Europeanen?!

De grootste oorlogsmisdadiger reikt een vredesprijs uit aan zijn geldschieter: een passend slot voor dit rampjaar. Fascisme marcheert niet alleen door de straten, maar wordt ondertussen genormaliseerd in presidentiële salons. Men glimlacht, schudt handen, en het Westen applaudisseert keurig mee.

A year since Trump's return to power, America's a far weaker nation, under relentless assault by its own president.
Weakening the United States, and democracies around the world, serves Trump's desire to increase his power and wealth. But Trump's the enemy of the nation he was elected to lead.
