A key point is that many of the worlds most powerful and influential were forced to sit through a 72 minute Don Dementia rant first hand at Davos (and smell him - reports are nauseating). No edited clips or media sane washing.

Trump’s outrageous assaults on the truth bring to mind a memorable line from comedian Richard Pryor:

“Ya gonna believe me or your Lyin’ eyes?”

Like other brazen demagogues, Trump seems to believe he has a magical power to persuade us to NOT believe what our eyes are telling us….

He’s wrong!

European Union has frozen them and will eventually deploy them

Taco Trump went to Davos, gave a speech that could only have been delivered by a lunatic, got his ass handed to him, so now he isn't going to invade Greenland.

people not realize

in Trump bringing Europe's rage and attention to bear on the U.S.

it takes Europe's attention off Ukraine, on their east flank

so aids Russia's advance, there.

Trump is just Putin in a different skinsack. Don't you get it?

Howard Lutnick stands to make BILLIONS from his scheme to “invest” by fronting a portion of the tariff costs to companies who could not afford to pay them, in exchange for being entitled to the entire payout if the tariffs were reversed.

Robber Barrons did this after the civil war, when the Union
NEW: It appears that the Trump administration expects to lose the Tariff case. According to an anonymous source at CBP who sent me the below email, they’re already having meetings on how to refund the tariffs they’ve collected from importers - many American. 1/

Reading analysis of Trump ramble at Davos and it is even more disgusting than on first hearing. The lowest form of human scum is POTUS.

No one can be watching this Davos speech and reach any conclusion but that the President of the United States is mentally disturbed and that something is deeply wrong with him. This is both embarrassing and extremely dangerous.

In Trump's telling, the US are the equivalent of the Nazis
Trump: "No nation is in any position to be able to secure Greenland other than the US. We're a great power. Much greater than people even understand. I think they found that out 2 weeks ago in Venezuela. We saw this in World War 2 when Denmark fell to Germany after just 6 hours of fighting."

“United States under Trump is no longer our military ally (Greenland), our strategic ally (Ukraine and Russia), our political ally (a National Security Strategy which openly advocates backing far-right parties to disrupt European democracies facing “civilisational erasure”), nor our economic ally”
Trump sincerely believes Norway stole “his” Nobel Peace Prize.

That isn’t a joke. It’s the key to understanding his second presidency.

We have to drop the self-delusion, over-intellectualisation and listen to him. America is no longer Europe’s ally.
