The problem is that the weakness of your institutions has been exposed. Even if we trust your leaders in the future, we can no longer trust your institutions and your system of government.

This is all well and good, but Trump only understands and respects power. European countries need to reciprocate in banning harmful US citizens from their countries.

The US government, whose explicit strategy is to cultivate resistance inside the EU, is now bullying Europeans who tried to rein in disinformation on U.S.-owned social media networks. In case anyone needs a reminder about what’s at stake.

Cool money-making idea: set up fake company, lie to get massive contract from government, buy yourself yacht with your new millions, get made a baroness for your hard work, fail to fulfil contract, wind up the company when you're ordered to pay money back. Isn't that clever? ♥️

Why not ask instead, if the US wants regime change why not Russia?
