It's not all black and white like you view things. Trump did a lot of good when he first came in, but now he has completely gone off the rails. I look at things on an issue by issue basis, you should try it.

That's why you have an alter universe where a Rubio will say one thing in public for the benefit of Trump and say something totally different in private away from Trumps ears...

Interesting that you know what "most of the Republican Party leadership" want.

Also interesting that you know what Rubio says in private... yet Trump doesn't.

Take Care

Do you disagree?

If Canada handles this wisely, and with a degree of efficiency, Trump could end up being the best thing to happen to us in a long time. It won’t come without some economic pains, but long term it could be good.

Trump posted: ‘All federal funding will STOP for any college, school, or university that allows illegal protests. Agitators will be imprisoned or permanently sent back to the country from which they came. American students will be permanently expelled or, depending on the crime, arrested. NO MASKS!’

Clearly.

But more importantly, I clearly disagree with presenting one's opinions as fact...

The United States has banned Britain from sharing intelligence from Washington with Ukraine as part of its withdrawal of support for Volodymyr Zelensky.

Donald Trump's decision to freeze American military aid to Kyiv yesterday brought warnings that Ukraine could run out of weapons in as little as two to three months' time.

But on top of missiles and ammunition, all UK intelligence agencies and military outlets also received an order expressly forbidding the sharing of US-generated intelligence, previously known as 'Rel UKR' - short for Releasable to Ukraine'.

Europeans are fueling Russia’s war effort through gas purchases while militaries wither

Europeans are boasting about plans for a greater role in aiding Ukraine in its war with Russia and taking on their own security, but they continue to drink down Russian oil as they may be allowing their own militaries to become weak and severely depleted.

In the fallout from the Oval Office fracas between President Donald Trump and Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky, European countries led by France and the United Kingdom have proposed unilaterally shouldering a greater defense burden and supporting Ukraine in its war with Russia.

However, despite supposedly hard-hitting sanctions and tough talk towards Russia, Europe’s lack of adherence when it comes to Russia’s energy industry is mismatched with its rhetoric. A recent study found that Europe’s purchases of Russian oil and gas in 2024 eclipsed its total financial aid to Ukraine that same year.

Your Excellency, Mr. President,

...

...

We call on the United States to uphold the guarantees made alongside Great Britain in the 1994 Budapest Memorandum, which established a direct obligation to defend Ukraine’s territorial integrity in exchange for its relinquishment of nuclear weapons. These guarantees are unconditional

Signed,

Lech Wałęsa, former political prisoner, President of Poland
