Vance’s attack on European democracy in Munich, perversely twisting the language of democracy itself should leave no doubt whatsoever that the aim of this administration is to destroy the EU and its liberal democracies #msc2025

If you support any of this, you’re honestly just a terrible person. People’s lives are being upended and destroyed. For every 1% increase in unemployment, 40,000 people die—yet some are celebrating.

#Vance hält auf der #MSC2025 eine Wahlkampfrede für Rechtsextreme. Zur gleichen Zeit werden in den USA die Checks & Balances abgeschafft und damit der Rechtsstaat zur Abschaffung vorbereitet, staatliche Institutionen ausgehöhlt und die politische Ordnung von der Exekutive an Oligarchie übergeben.

It's extremely funny in a way, a US vice-president lecturing Europe on values while those are being destroyed by Trump in the USA as we speak. He doesn't care about Ukraine fighting for survival and doesn't want to criticize Russia in anyway. #MSC2025 #Vance
