What a fascinating glimpse into the parallel universe — Republican Senator Mullin says on Fox News, that Trump is the only person who can create peace in Ukraine, and that is why European politicians are sucking up to Trump.

That is not what is going on at all.

No one in Europe wants Trump’s peace plan. We just want to give Trump the illusion of being the leader, so we can keep buying Patriot missiles and keep on wearing down Putin’s forces until we win.

But thanks for keeping up appearances.

@randahl Efter min opfattelse er det ikke Trump, men Putin vi skal have indstillet til Nobels Fredspris næste gang, eller skal det vente til han har skabt fred i de baltiske lande eller endnu senere når han har skabt fred i det tidligere Polen!?

@randahl I just did a Google search "insightful political analysts from Oklahoma" and I got a 404 HTTP error.

It's remarkable that the entire world knows to speak to Trump like he's a small child, providing false encouragement as a distraction or temporary escape.
"Yes, sweetie, you are doing a good job."
"Of course you are very smart, dear."
"No one else can do this better than you, son."
"Wow, you're great at splashing around in the kiddy pool."
It's the equivalent of plopping your kid in front of the TV.

@randahl Is that a Kelly Ann Conway clone? Or did she get a few good meals and a lot of work done?

De Gaulle was right : in 1962

If the Americans will not fight for Cuba 90 miles from the United States, they will not fight for Europe 3,500 miles away. I must draw the conclusions…

The addition of another center of nuclear decision will multiply the uncertainties of the Soviet planners. You Americans could survive--for a short time--the loss of Western Europe. We Europeans could not.

Well, this is not pretty, this is not good. But when I think about it, we still have almost three years of Trump ahead of us. What can I say? There have been questionable US presidents before, but this one is a ghoul.

@SamsenBdRi Trump has 11 months left before the midterms. My prediction: He will lose decisively, and then Congress will start an impeachment process — this time with enough mandates to go through with it.

I have my doubts that democrats

1. are willing to even try to win. Considering that they did everything they could to lose to Trump.

2. will make any difference if they do win. They have the same corporate sponsors, and have been helping Trump every time his policies got so bad that he couldn't get enough republicans on his side. E.g. to end the shutdown.

@leeloo I do not agree with (2). Democrats arranged for a Jan 6 committee and that was not for helping Trump.

They failed at moving Trump to a jail cell but it was not for a lack of trying.

I think Democrats made the mistake of thinking Trump would never recover politically. That may have made them complacent but not complicit.

No US president has ever been officially removed from office, but Richard Nixon is the only president to have resigned in 1974 to preempt impeachment due to the Watergate scandal. Do you believe that a man like Trump will resign? Yes, he will kick back if he loses the midterm elections. It will be a lesson for the US and the world. Let's hope for good fortune, Chief Justice.

@randahl it took some time for me to wipe the tears 'cos I was laughing so hard.

I suggest the man tries some other news outlets then the one he actually consumates.

My stomach hurts...
