NEW: This new report, from BBC, is the best takedown of the insanity of Trump you will see anywhere. Calm, coherent and repeating only Trump’s own words. Devastating. Brilliant work once again from Roz Atkins. (🎥 BBC News)

He has the same constitutional powers he had in his first term, but he has no adults in the room this time to advise him against his decisions and the U.S. Congress is missing in action.

In his latest humiliation, a desperate Trump is begging China to help address the Strait of Hormuz crisis. He also warned that NATO faces a “very bad future” if US allies fail to assist in securing the crucial waterway. Yes, those are the very same countries Trump has been attacking for months.

Trump and his foreign policy/nat security/trade officials have done nothing but attack, demean and insult our NATO allies. Then when they refuse to join his Iran War he alternates between pouting and threatening. The time to include allies in a coalition is BEFORE you go to war.

Trump said NATO faces a "very bad future" if they don't help secure the Strait of Hormuz. ...which is ironic since Trump directly threatened NATO members over Greenland, and dismissed prior NATO support in Afghanistan which led to over 1k NATO soldiers killed. Care to explain?

Also, may I say that I don’t agree with people saying ICE and CBP need “more training.” They’re doing exactly what this administration has trained them to—impose a reign of fear in blue cities. They don’t need more training. They need to be ripped up root and branch.
