So many people have Trump wrong. What he wants is not Yeltsin's Russia, Orban's Hungary or Hitler's Germany. I've studied him for a decade and can tell you that if his dreams come true, America will most resemble the Hermit Kingdom—North Korea—with Trump as Kim Jong-un and the rest of us in poverty.

Whether it’s women he assaults, people he defrauds, police officers defending the Capitol, or countries invaded by murderous dictators, Trump always blames the victims.

President Xi would be a more effective and credible broker to negotiate an end to Russia’s invasion of Ukraine than the American president. If Putin is really interested in making peace with Ukraine, why does he need the US involved in negotiations? Have Modi do it. Anyone.

Interesting: the State Department’s procurement forecast detailing a $400 million order for "armored Tesla" has now been edited to "armored electric vehicles." The document shows the edit was made tonight at 9:12 p.m. -- after it was highlighted in reports

An unelected South African has taken control of the US Treasury and is deciding to stop payments on American obligations, in violation of numerous court orders, and admits in the Oval Office that he has done so upon incorrect information, while the President sits impotently behind the Resolute Desk.
Reporter: You said an example of fraud that you have cited was $50 million of condoms was sent to Gaza but after a fact-check apparently it was Gaza in Mozambique meant to protect them against HIV. 

Musk: First of all, some of the things I say will be incorrect
