I will never get over that an American president is screwing a democracy that was attacked by Russia and is bowing down to Putin. And I will never get over the fact that congressional Republican cowards are letting him do it.

By any reasonable measure, Donald Trump is a Russian asset. He puts the interests of Russia before other democracies and before America. It is disgusting. www.nytimes.com/2026/10/13/w...

Trump Hands Victories to Putin, Who Offers More War in Return
Russia has reaped a diesel deal and an increase in U.S. pressure on Ukraine as President Trump’s political needs align with his longstanding inclinations toward Russia.

Noteworthy how aggressive he is about this. No sooner has the Brexit subject been reignited than there appears a potentially existential issue for Leave’s political supporters. What’s the answer? iDK. Burnham should publish as much as he can.

Well, that’s the American defence industry borked. “Buy our products, you won’t get them if you try to use them to defend yourself against the Kremlin.” Which is why you buy European, instead.

I doubt that the small amount of oil Putin will spare will affect the markets or the price of fuel in the US much at all. That will require either regime change in Iran or Trump to back down and offer concessions to Iran to reopen the Strait of Hormuz and tell their Houthi proxies to stand down.

Too many people in the media give Trump props for "transparency" because he talks to reporters frequently. But he lies most of the time and often ignores questions. A day after he talked about letting Iran destroy Los Angeles and San Diego, he won't even explain what he meant.

Pathological liars just can’t stop lying. Trump: “I’m the only president that donated his salary. They pay me $550,000 a year.” The presidential salary is $400,000. JFK and Hoover donated their salaries and didn’t rob the country blind.

Over and over again we see this. There is no reciprocity. Zero. if you offer Trump bribes he'll take them. But he doesn't feel as if he owes you anything in return. Just like he sneers at his MAGA followers; he thinks you're weak and a fool for believing his lies and deserve to be bled dry.
