No recognition that we do not gave the legal—or moral—right to depose a government leader and give US businesses the right to steal their natural resources. If Trump needed to remove a corrupt dictator, he could have started with Putin and the whole world would be better off.

Trump’s fascism (stoked by Miller) is on the march. Neville Chamberlain tried to appease Hitler, just as NATO leaders are trying yo appease Trump, and we all know how that turned out. We may be headed for WWIII since Republicans in Congress have abdicated all responsibility for doing anything to check Trump.
