Sad. Hitler didn't stop with Poland. Putin won't stop with the Ukraine. Neville Chamberlain's approach didn't work in Poland. Giving Putin everything he wants in the Ukraine, won't stop him from invading them or anyone else. This plan rewards Putin for his aggression.

Trump is giving Russia almost everything it wants with his Ukraine peace plan | CNN
Trying the same thing over and over again, without success, is either the definition of insanity or Russian negotiation tactics, depending on your point of view.

If the US can provide $40 billion in financial support to Argentina, $20 billion to stabilize the peso and $20 billion in financing from banks & wealth funds, because Pres. Trump loves Pres. Javier Milei, then the US can afford continuing ACA subsidies if MAGA is really about putting America First.

Changes to the White House are supposed to first be approved by Congress. Trump is demanding the Justice Department pay him $230 million. But we can't continue subsidies for the Affordable Care Act resulting in 20 million facing higher premiums. The $20 billion to Argentina would cover the ACA.

Looks to me like Fuhrer Trump is doing the same thing to the White House that he's doing to the country and our Constitution - tearing it apart. The entire GOP are accomplices as they refuse to use their checks and balances.
