A US diplomat who can't reassure our ALLIES that we are on their side is bad at diplomacy. Whether he's incompetent or just afraid to put the US interests ahead of Trump's is moot. The Secretary of State is a job that demands more talent than he possesses. www.nytimes.com/2025/02/20/u... - ThreadSky

But we’re not their allies anymore. It’s best for them that they proceed accordingly. I want the best for them since I wasn’t able to help save our country.

He has plenty of talent but apparently no backbone.

Trump/Rubio are playing the same kind of BS psychological warfare on our allies that they're playing on its own citizens. Yes we're going to do this. No we're going to do that. But we didn't mean this. But we meant that. It's going to be the same. It's going to be different. What the actual heck?

It doesn’t matter what Rubio says because Trump/Musk have their own agenda.

Prediction: Rubio will be replaced at some point and publicly attacked and will absolutely live to regret taking the job. I think he already sees that he’s boxed in and going against what he has previously said.

Speaking out of both sides of his mouth must have him reaching for a lot of bottled water.

The position of dog catcher may require more talent than he possesses.

Diplomacy skills don’t matter after you’ve joined the axis of evil. You can’t reassure your allies when you’re now the enemy. That’s like saying Lavrov is bad at diplomacy.

No one could be good at putting forth a steaming pile of policy as bad as this.

Too late to do the right thing now.

And they had the audacity to talk about DEI hires... Welcome to the big show Lil'Marco.

donlinn.bsky.social•1 day ago

Lil Marco's problem isn't primarily a matter of of his competence as a diplomat. He is following he boss's orders and the boss has the objectives of sandbagging Ukraine and getting the US out of NATO. He's said that for years but everyone was busy letting Trump be Trump.

Now we're all screwed.

Little Marco excels at being a toady. Always has.
