Dear Europe, Please band together and stand up to these destructive malignant narcissists whose aim is destruction of our democracy. NEVER AGAIN IS NOW. With gratitude & appreciation, A Thoroughly Embarrassed & Disgusted American
It is absolutely incredible how badly prepared the world is for the Trump Sequel "Trump 2 - now fully unhinged". They only had 4 years to prepare and apparently nobody did.
For a start: Start acting as One. Five digits, one mighty fist, one impactful punch. But *not just Europe*: Work with international partners partners (Canada, Mexico, Panama, and, yes, China)…. Tariffs will be met by *collective action* against 🇺🇸
Completely agree. Approx 8 billion ppl in world yet we’re all supposed to bow down and accept whatever 1 person wants!! Every country should tell him to fuck off, despite the consequences.
The best way, and the most efficient way to deal with Donald Trump is to make him irrelevant.
Go out and find, make deals, with your other allies. Replace American imports with ones from other countries. Let Trump GOP and MAGA supporters, know what it truly means for America to go it alone.
Some day once we have dealt with him internally and put the guard rails back on and welded them tight we can grovel and beg for a seat at the table again. For now, do what you must.
Don't come groveling. Come with hope, compassion and biggest sigh of relief anybody could ask for. My heart cries for pain and suffering Americans are going to go through. I grew up when bread and dripping was a regular supper. I just don't know if extreme poverty is enough to cure MAGA selfishness
Foolish to think one can ride out Trump's 2nd presidency. There's no riding out. Trump is going full apocalyptic. He+ his cronies mean to make sure that there's not a democratic America to go back to. Only America left after Trump's 4 years will be a right wing christian racist Republican regime.
I I grew up as a child of WW2 survivors in England. The diary of Anne Frank was a mandatory and immersive classroom learning experience, along with Charlie Chaplin's documentary films of concentration camps. Through my parents I met Auschwitz survivors. Escapes from Coldizt Castle, Pat Reid,
Air force service men burn victims who were saved and given second chance at life by the dedication and ingenuity of the stuff of Queen Victoria hospital East grinstead. My father, forced to enlist in the Navy at 15, served as OS in the gum turret on the Northern conveys.
Father-in-law, sergeant major,most senior officer who survived to liberate Sicily. Comparing Trump to Hitler,is wrong. He's much much worse. He+his cronies know results& effects of WW2. Back then there was naivety & innocence to what future would bring. Now there's not,they knowingly brings this.
Stop making it all about Trump himself, or even his goon Musk. It’s a collective guilt shared by the entire GOP and 50% of the voters who choose this, despite knowing very well what’s coming. Let’s show them all our contempt.
Europe can make it without US, we have Canada, Mercosur, Mexico asia
or in short: stick to his rules. Why. He has no legitimacy to impose any rules. Arrest and until that time ignore. His decrees have no value because his position was merely secured by vote buying and threats of violence if the result would not be declared in his favor. No basis to rule. Exit

Zelensyy gets showmanship like no other European leader.
Dance like a butterfly, deal like a reality show star.*
