"I'm sure there are members of this post-American coalition who want things that are absolutely antithetical to my agenda. That's what makes us a coalition – we disagree about so much, but we all agree on this: it's past time for a post-American world, and Comrade Trump is delivering it." - @pluralistic

"Look, all things being equal, I would have preferred that Trump had keeled over from a mid-burger stroke on the campaign trail in 2016. But when life gives you SARS, you make sarsaparilla. This is a deeply shitty timeline, but Comrade Trump keeps tripping over his red tie. Let's take the wins." - @pluralistic

Understand: He suffered no personal consequences, so to him everything he's done so far has been a roaring success. He feels powerful, he makes money on it & everyone keeps talking about him.
He has no reason not to keep going.
He has to be stopped, because he will never stop himself.

It's fucking insane. The country of the Jews, historically persecuted at a level only the Roma people can relate to, has become a nation aggressive right-wing war hawks - Nazis, in a word.
I guess for some, fear really does lead to anger & hate. However you slice it, this is shameful.
A raíz de las elecciones húngaras y de si hay que alegrarse o no, recupero este meme.
Bueno, y que es Hungría. Tampoco se nos ha perdido nada por allí como para vivir las elecciones húngaras como si fuera la final de la Champions.

It's almost like letting the world's worst person go on without the slightest hint of consequences is a bad idea.

No, seriously - can a country that doesn't have those mechanism even be considered civilized?
Something to ponder (but the answer is "fucking no, obviously not!")

No, seriously - in just one year the MAGA regime has managed to make Iran and China look like the good guys, without either of the two changing any of the things they can rightly be criticized for.
Let that sink in. Especially you, Americans.
Right now the feeling of despair is easy to give in to, with everything going on: war, habitat destruction and the EU trying to press everyone into a dependency on US ad-tech for being able to do... anything requiring an Internet connection, apparently.
I don't want to. Neither one of those. I'll still keep trying to do better as much as I can.
Some days that'll be better than others.
I'll still try.

I seriously fear they don't understand that unless the US is severely sanctioned, Trump will just keep doing this.
If he remotely gets away with it he'll just break something else for the world to fix.
