Tony Flannery @tonymgt.bsky.social · 20/01/2025My problem with his speech was that it came across to me as the rantings of an adolescent mind, boasting about how great he is. A poor state the U.S. is in, if they really think this is their saviour. 010 1

Tony Flannery @tonymgt.bsky.social · 17/11/2024Looking at the current state of the United States from a distance (Ireland), it is hard to understand what is happening, and fearful of the consequences.
