The world will not forget that the US cannot be trusted. Trump has instigated the decline of US hegemony.

The People aren’t ignoring it, some people are ignoring it AND some powerful people are enabling it. Americans don’t deserve to live under tyranny.

It’s not surprising that people are protesting a president destroying public property. It is astounding that tens of
millions of Americans simply don’t seem to care. Fiddling while America burns.

Why does the world continue enabling old guys who clearly just need to hold onto power to stave off the inevitability that they will soon be dead? Leaders sell buy date is 60 I reckon.

He has cowed the media so it is now down to the electorate. I don’t believe any electorate in the world is stupid enough to vote for him again, certainly not US voters who value freedom and democracy.

Great to see hostsges returned. Long term peace though? Almost certainly not going to happen. Trump will spin until he - and we - are dizzy but it won’t change the reality on the ground.

Why is there no federal response?

Trump is a crook who realised that being a president placed his above the law. We sorted that out hundreds of years ago in England so no one in the UK is above the law. The US is playing catchup.

…there is no way he will ever get the Nobel - I’m sure even a horse’s head put in the bed of the Nobel committee chair wouldn’t work.
For goodness sake in along list of reasons he renamed his defence department the War Department!

I do agree that the actions of ‘lone wolves’ are instigated by those who either choose to incite fear and division or who are either careless or incompetent in the words they use.

I don’t believe right minded people support the wicked acts carried out by Hamas. Neither do they support the heinous behaviour of the Israeli government in Gaza.

I agree that there is no place for violence or for acceptance of violence. There are too many people looking to cause division for their own ends.

It’s frighteningly true - America is in decline for sure. What confuses some Americans is that they forget real power is soft - it is in relationships, trust, consistency. Trump is showing none of these things.

It seems to me that he should be entitled to whatever any MP receives, no more no less. I agree that it seems the people of Clacton may be regretting electing him as their MP - it is clear getting the seat was just a means to any end. Clacton people were used.

This is a time to remind ourselves that this was an act of extremists, of madmen, who do NOT represent the vast majority of people of whatever community.
