Crikey. For a country claiming it wants to be isolated, it seems to be awfully busy being overly involved with other nations. GTFO, USA!

Those lines from Romeo and Juliet keeps entering my mind: 'Courage, man; The hurt cannot be much?' 'Ay, ay, a scratch, a scratch; marry, 'tis enough.' Different context though.

The picture simply suggests straightforward complicity if it's real. Democratic leaders may well be idealistically ideologically opposed to Trump but they're also the most vulnerable to corruption. They have lots of money. And money talks. Sadly.

Told you that the inaction is evidence of complicity with the regime.

It almost sounds to me like they're complicit. Inactivity is approval.

The irony of a successful human rights lawyer (Starmer) having to do business with a convicted felon.

That assault is both on the perpetrator AND Trump.

Fair. Yes you are correct. I should've been more accurate and stated we need to continue backing them. As a population, I know we do but the PM is in a precarious position with the 'special relationship' with the US and practical decisions with Europe.

Yup. My home country of the UK needs to repair ties with Europe and absolutely back Ukraine. I've taught numerous Ukrainian refugees and all of them have completed their education...and gone back to fight for their home. Even when permanent asylum has been offered. Monumentally courageous.

Add the Daily Mail and The Times to that as well. The Daily Mail is a traitor rag in terms of its messaging.

1 for me and 1 for me and 1 for me and 1 for me and 1 for the rest of the population...split.

What an odious traitor to Western democracy. That moderately successful comedian has become probably the greatest world leader of our generation; whereas, failed businessman Trump is definitely the most embarrassing.

And...how exactly has that person defended freedom?

Hopefully everyone will get bored of Rogan's shtick. That level of base social discourse is fine coming from teenagers, but eventually you grow up; look back and realise how plain naive you were. Apparently, not Rogan...unless it's intentional of course.

As it happens though, the original sign was quite accurate, if not slightly prophetic.

Can we do a Running Man MAGA participant special?

The fact that The Joe Rogan Apologist Experience is listed as comedy is distinctly unfunny. But great news MTN!

Well written and keep going! You have support from many of us in the UK. I feel It's essential to support my American friends because, what has started in the USA, carries a real danger of spreading in upcoming European elections, especially the UK. This is a global fight for all that's decent.

Trump and co are absolutely relying on opposition to play by the rules. And that's why they're currently winning. And it's horrifying.
comment in response to post
Right so Trump wants the USA to leave the playing field but still call the shots? Good grief, I hope our European leaders have enough backbone to tell him to fuck off on that one.

I'm a European and want JD Vance, Musk and Trump to become presidents of tiny isolated prison cells...
comment in response to post
Actually was thinking about this. It'd be a good shout I think. Just hard to coordinate.
comment in response to post
Musk's stunt in the Oval Office was an overt troll even down to the corny body language - he looked like some kind of jumped up over excited middle manager who'd been on a body language course just prior to 'bring your brat to work day'.
comment in response to post
It must be jarring for morons like Vance when he steps outside of the US corporate media and MAGA echo chambers and has to face real politicians from countries with real governments.
comment in response to post
That's fair enough. I respect your opinion.
