"The Libido for the Ugly"
Some Americans, myself included have long viewed Trump as a Traitor to American values, and more. We are not alone.
A Call to Arms for Europe
This is a warning shot across the bow of the American Polity. Any damage done will be very difficult to repair. It could take a decade r more after Trump leaves office to correct what many of us see as an American retreat.

A Call to Arms for Europe
This viral speech brutally captures how U.S. allies see Trumpās America
That view of Donald Trumpās America was brutally encapsulated last week by a centrist French senator named Claude Malhuret, who noted that until now, ānever in history has a U.S. president capitulated to the enemy.ā In a speech at the French Senate assessing Trumpās alignment with the Kremlin, turn against Ukraine and the implications for Europe, he said: āWe were at war with a dictator. Now we are fighting a dictator backed by a traitor.ā
Wow! This is unprecedented.āTrumpās message is that being his ally serves no purpose, because he will not defend you.ā
By Claude Malhuret
Europe is at a crucial juncture of its history. The American shield is slipping away, Ukraine risks being abandoned, and Russia is being strengthened. Washington has become the court of Nero: an incendiary emperor, submissive courtiers, and a buffoon on ketamine tasked with purging the civil service.
This is a tragedy for the free world, but itās first and foremost a tragedy for the United States. [President Donald] Trumpās message is that being his ally serves no purpose, because he will not defend you, he will impose more tariffs on you than on his enemies, and he will threaten to seize your territories, while supporting the dictators who invade you.
The king of the deal is showing that the art of the deal is lying prostrate. He thinks he will intimidate China by capitulating to Russian President Vladimir Putin, but Chinaās President Xi Jinping, faced with such wreckage, is undoubtedly accelerating his plans to invade Taiwan.
This is a warning shot across the bow of the American Polity. Any damage done will be very difficult to repair. It could take a decade r more after Trump leaves office to correct what many of us see as an American retreat.

Trump Is Nero While Washington Burns
