It's true though. A lot of what Trump calls out isn't incorrect, the solution just is.

This is sooooo long overdue and definitely would be a win if they actually follow through.

Signal is likely much more secure than Hillary’s private email server, but I take your point.

Lol. The same year as the Maidan, Crimea invasion and Russian mercenaries illegally entering Ukraine to agitate in the Donbas.

So weird that Europe would respond with increased defense spending!

just like they weren't going to invade Ukraine.

Since when is arming yourself in self defense because your neighbor likes to do land grabs warmongering?

Also, I think it's reasonable to be skeptical that the Houthis are 'rational actors'; as best as I can tell, they are state sponsored religious extremists. They seem like idealogues. There's no reason to think if we have them here they wouldn't exist elsewhere.

"If only the Israelis had been nicer after Hamas butchered a musical festival" Is not a good take, particularly from you as you seem knowledgable in this area. Netanyahu has been terrible for Gaza, but;

How would you go about securing this shipping lane? Or should it be abandoned?

I understand a lot of trade to flow through the region by sea and that the houthis are really harming this.
