Danish journalists eat American journalists for breakfast.
This is Rasmus Svaneborg from Ritzau showing how it is done.
@randahl Only the Americans can vote out Donald Trump. European politicians are left with Realpolitik. And the reality is that Trump is president.
Which country is going to produce and send weapons to Ukraine at the quantities required to defend Europe in Ukraine?
Europe doesn't produce enough. I wish we would. But we don't.
So I don't blame Mark Rutte. I am sure he is aware of the optics of his actions. It's not pretty. But, in my view, he's taking one for the team. And I can respect that.
if a drunk man invades your house, one approach is to smile and flatter him and charm him to perhaps leave
also, you could be genuinely scared and act weak and deferential to a random drunk in your own house, which just emboldens the drunk to do worse
we can ascribe motive a or b to mark, but the results of the approach, regardless of motive, are dubious
the ideal is you firmly grab the fucking drunk by collar and drag him out of your fucking house
@randahl Wtf what was that response supposed to mean? It sounds like he is crawling up even deeper Trumps ass after such a question.
@randahl That's a hard burn.
