What I cannot understand is why anybody takes Trump seriously.
Don't we all see that this is a dement madman?
He cannot even say why he does anything without changing it in the next sentence, if he manages to formulate it, which he usually fails to do.
Where is the Congress?!
Given Trump's policy, why should Europe do anything for him?
1. Unjustified trade war.
2. Persistent insults.
3. Undermining European democracy through support of the anti-democratic right.
Trump! Stop all this nonsense at once!
Europe! Don't help Trump in his odious acts!
From FT comments
Trump's folly in foreign policy is multidimensional.
He does not understand that the main threat to the Western alliance & thus the US is Russia's aggression in Ukraine. A rational US president would give Ukraine all the arms & money it needs to win that war. /1
Putin hat keinerlei Absicht seine Angriffe einzustellen und die Ukraine keine Option, den Krieg zu beenden. Beide Seiten können weiterkämpfen, ohne sich durchzusetzen. Wenn Europa so weitermacht wie bisher, zieht sich dieser Krieg über weitere Jahre. 1/
So..... how's YOUR week going so far?
Sadly most of the world now thinks that Trump is primarily focused on self-enrichment.
Trump has rendered the US pathetically corrupt.
Trump is compared to Idi Amin & Mobutu for good reason, absolutely corrupt & completely lawless.
Remember: Viktor Orban has built a corrupt, stagnant Hungary that is much poorer than it should be

In today’s Vatnik Soup, made together with chef invité @martinlaineolen.bsky.social , we discuss the extensive links between pedophile sex trafficker Jeffrey Epstein and Russian officials and intelligence operatives, and how Western politicians reinforced these links.

Was sagt es eigentlich über uns als Deutsche und als Europäer, dass wir es zulassen, dass die Menschen in der Ukraine von Putin in Kälte und Dunkelheit gebombt werden? Wir loben nur die Ukrainer für ihre "Resilienz" und machen große Worte. Ein Armutszeugnis für Europa.
In this 4th Debunk of the Day, we’ll refute an absolute classic of vatnik BS, the crown jewel of peak dishonesty: whataboutism.
Now, not everything that looks like whataboutism is wrong. Seeking consistency or comparing actions or responses is normal.

Excuse me, but are there no republican congresspeople who are embarrassed to support a blatantly corrupt president?
Who are you?
What do you stand for?
Autocracy & kleptocracy?
This is truly embarrassing for the US.
Die Katastrophe, dass es RechtsextremistInnen und ihren noch legalen parlamentarischen Truppen wie der #AfD
so sehr ins Hirn geschissen hat - ein Land wird mit der Zeit unregierbar, wenn sich Wissenschaftsfeindlichkeit und Menschenverachtung wie ein Krebsgeschwür durch die Gesellschaft fressen.
Putin hat seine Raketen verschossen und die Menschen in der Ukraine sitzen in bitterer Kälte und Dunkelheit. Und nachdem alles kaputt und die Raketen erstmal verbraucht sind, verkauft er Trump "eine Woche nicht in Städte feuern" als große gutmütige Geste. Zynischer geht es nicht.
For decades, the US has benefited enormously, because we all trusted the US as the benevolent hegemon, but idiot Trump has ended that trust. Then the many questions arise from Europe:
1. Should we accept the dominance of poisonous US social networks? No! Laws are needed! /1
‼️ Russia: “The Kremlin urged people not to believe that the war's losses had reached 1.2 million people.”
You know what that means…
ru.themoscowtimes.com/2026/01/28/k...
Let's not forget they confirmed their losses with this denial...

In today’s (first) Debunk of the Day, we’ll talk about… “realistic expectations”.
Russia has the GDP of Italy. NATO — which Russia claims to be fighting — has 20 times their GDP, and a much stronger and more modern military.

He treats it like a family photo

In response to Trump’s trade war, the rest of the world makes free trade agreements while Trump fires off new manic tariffs weekly every time another leader says something he doesn’t like.
In 2025, the US gave Ukraine only $1 billion in military support and that was a remnant from the Biden era.
Trump's US gives absolutely nothing to Ukraine because Trump supports Putin.
anything for many reasons.
1. Witkoff obviously supports anything Putin says, apparently for financial reasons, but I don't know.
2. The US demands that Ukraine gives up its fortress line in Donetsk region,...
Remember folks, Stephen Miller said Alex Pretti was “an assassin who tried to murder federal agents" and J.D. Vance retweeted it

The is not a new deal - this is Trump surrendering. For now. They have always said that the US & NATO is free to do what it wants in Greenland from a military perspective. Trump said that wasn’t good enough because he needs the US to “own” it. So this is simply Trump backing down
A demented Donald Trump confused Greenland with Iceland as a silent crowd watches in horror as the President of the USA humiliates himself, slurring badly and visibly disoriented
The president of the United States is so brain-dead that he doesn't remember which country he's threatening to destroy the world's greatest military alliance over.
In Trump's telling, the US are the equivalent of the Nazis
It is obvious that Trump is both mentally ill & treasonous, preering Russia and China over the West.
We have know that for a long time.
What really shocks me is that the elected republicans go along & does not impeach Trump for obviously impeachable acts.
