Mark Dingman @mark-dingman.bsky.social · 04/10/2026So something like 30% of the US electorate prefer Trump. That is near enough 100 million Americans. That is quite something. I’m sure the two thirds of Americans who do not support Trump will understand why the rest of the planet will need to get just as far away from the US as they possibly can. 010

Mark Dingman @mark-dingman.bsky.social · 01/10/2026Absolutely delusional. There is a near zero probability of rational actors following anything the US suggests on trade. It is astonishing to me that any American can speak out on international trade with a straight face. #USA #MAGA 020

Mark Dingman @mark-dingman.bsky.social · 30/09/2026Watching this train wreck from a distance would be hilarious if the repercussions were not so serious and long lasting.

Mark Dingman @mark-dingman.bsky.social · 26/09/2026Sure thing, the US is a reliable and trustworthy ally to Canada.

Mark Dingman @mark-dingman.bsky.social · 26/09/2026That would be because the US has wilfully and intentionally sought to damage Canada economically and politically.

Mark Dingman @mark-dingman.bsky.social · 26/09/2026I have no difficulty believing this to be the case given the US Government met with Alberta separatists 3 times. Truly the US is an enemy of Canada and the Canadian people. 100

Mark Dingman @mark-dingman.bsky.social · 25/09/2026So you think Hegseth fired the missiles himself? There was not a chain of command that followed a plainly illegal order? From general officers right down the line illegal orders were followed. So yes: that is exactly what I am saying. Exactly.
