My social media suggests the USA may be attacking Iran - looks like Davos really was a blowout for Trump.
Or: Maybe just the first manoeuvre of the Board of Piss?

NATO countries should impose 1000% tariffs on the USA until their fat flatulent President grovelingly apologizes for his outrageous remarks. (If you don't know what I'm talking about, pay attention)

Grandpa's escaped from the carehome to do his greatest hits for Davos. So sad to see someone so deranged.
Trump's plane had to turn round, it's an ominous portent - which he will ignore

I'm getting more optimistic about Davos. Obviously the Republicans have failed to hold the(ir) executive to account but the world can. Now that kidnapping has been turned into a legitimate foreign policy strategy - Davos, you know what to do to Trump.
Hey WEF, Trump is coming to your chocolate box European hills. As his grandiose madness descends, threatening the planet, is it time for a global intervention by the elite who (literally) have most to lose?

What I am urging everyone here to do is sit back, take a deep breath, and let things play out. The worst thing countries can do is escalate against the United States.

And yet only Minnesota is being occupied by masked thugs over "immigration."

This is worse than Iraq.
ICE is terrorizing everyone. No different than ISIS.
They are cruising the streets, cutting off people, causing crashes and pointing guns if you dare challenge them.
The anger is building. When it bursts, Kiev during SMO.

Trump’s Revenge Tour continues; this time against Fed Chair Jerome Powell!
Not because he’s breaking the law. Because Powell, using all the data at his disposal, didn’t lower interest rates as much as Trump was demanding.
Math has never been Trump’s strong suit! We support you Powell❤️

The idea is that by making the enemy look naked they'll be less scary to the fragile American Military.
