Congratulations to all our MAGA friends and family.

Only question is - should we share our Fallout bunkers with them?

Still, Trump's endless Putin-fluffing, Ukraine-undermining, and Europe-bashing seem to line up very nicely with Putin's agenda.

But the way the asshole is sucking up to Mohammed Bin Salmon considering how hostile Saudi Arabia is to the United States, I feel like Putin is a distraction from who the real bad guys are.

The Saudis would be co-owners of a company that would control 95% of our media outlets. It would be the end of the free press as we know it.

The EU needs to station a multinational force there tonight as a tripwire.

We have US troops that would be “trapped” in Europe that would immediately be taken hostage by EU nations if he decides to invade Greenland.

These two factors should be enough to ensure US military leaders stuff Hegseth into a locker and tell Traitor to stfu

But the Venezuela raid makes me rethink it. Trump likes "one and done" military operations. The US military could literally take over Nuuk in less than an hour and declare annexation complete.
