My father was Henry Wallace Democrat and WWII vet; my mother a solid New Deal Democrat.
I am happy they are gone, otherwise the shame of our country would have killed them.

Trump and Vance are who they are. It is the GOP and their supporters who are the black shirts, they are the enablers, the storm troops, they are as much responsible for the US joining the Axis of Evil as the ass they kiss.

And Putin wants to destroy America. He’s one step closer.

Zelensky should give the mineral rights to Canada. Americans will go to Canada to work. My husband worked for a Canadian tech company for most of his career.
He needs to show Trump he does hold the cards. The mineral rights cards are a big fucking deal.

How did we as a country end up with half of us being disgusted by yesterday's spectacle and the other half cheering this on as bravado? Will - or rather can - there ever be any reconciliation?

i-had-a-dream.bsky.social•1 day ago

Trump and Vance accused Z of being disrespectful. No. Disrespectful is inviting him to a bear bating circus in the Shite House to discuss such an important matter as ending a war which has killed thousands of innocent people. Trump politics are ruled by greed and his dick, not a grain of humanity.

salmonwatcher.bsky.social•1 day ago

Yeah. At least Neville Chamberlain was just a fool, not an agent of Hitler the way Trump is for Putin.

I've never seen anything so reprehensible as Trump and Vance yesterday, aggressively attacking Zelensky, presuming to know more about his country's struggle than he does. Clear adherence to Putin. Another national disgrace for all Americans, whether we acknowledge it or not.

dana-farmer.bsky.social•1 day ago

I read the article. Forgive me if the question has already been raised. Does anyone think that this is more than a disastrous circus act, that it's an excuse to start a bigger war, an actual WWII? Sometimes I assume the worst but don't want to be right.

sxkttnunderdog.bsky.social•1 day ago

trump ALWAYS uses the term "Disgrace" when attacking something or someone, he knows deep down that he is a disgraceful person. That is because trump has no courage and no honor. Siding w/ putin is a disgrace. You can either be for The USA OR trump, but you can't be for both.

qgennas.bsky.social•1 day ago

Reminds of me of Obama's comment about Trump 1: carnival barker.

"It’s simply impossible to imagine a more disgraceful misuse of the White House and all of the vast power that comes with the presidential office than the spectacle presented by these two fascist barkers today."

Despicable.

bigskyrad.bsky.social•1 day ago

Trump’s disgraceful behavior, bordering on treason on behalf of Putin, is not much worse than the horrible “reasoning” used to justify voting for Trump.

nomorex61.bsky.social•1 day ago

Spot on. For the sake of the world, I this is enough to wake world leaders up to what we are facing. Appeasement will not work, Trump will not honour any commitments he makes, because he has no honour.

nomorex61.bsky.social•1 day ago

Stand up now, stand together. For the love of god, (and I’m an atheist) quit trying to make side deals with him. Stand together on tariffs and on security. Do it now before it’s to late

This is no different than US foreign policy of the last several decades, basically since World War II, even before. The only distinction here is that it's shown prime time because Trump wanted to do a new episode of Apprentice. That's all it ever was intended. A public mocking for Putin et al

grandma77.bsky.social•1 day ago

Trump may be unwilling to help him, be we sure can. Go to https://u24.gov.ua, and donate if you’re able to. Even $10 a month from enough of us can have a substantial impact. If you can’t donate though, you can still help by sharing this link everywhere possible. Spread the word

snikpoh.bsky.social•1 day ago

For those who don’t have much to donate, there’s a one-time donation with a custom amount option.

Russia violated the Budapest Agreement where Ukraine gave up nuclear weapons if the U.S. and other countries promised to help Ukraine defend their borders. Russia violated the agreement. That does not condone the U.S. from shirking their obligation.

Elon Musk's stupidity about Social Security was exposed when Joe Rogan asked a simple question about Social Security. Musk exposed himself as ignorant on the subject and winged it. Incoharent rampbling—that is totally meaningless.

Rogan also doesn't understand SS!
