Truly, we are in 25th amendment territory
OPINION | Even by Trump’s standards, his latest letter is so dangerous and so delusional that there is no longer any question that the president is mentally “unable to discharge the powers and duties of his office,” as laid out in the 25th Amendment.
Trump’s Insane New Threat Leaves No Doubt: It’s Time for the 25th Amendment
There is no longer any denying the president is unable to carry out the demands of his office.

One thing that now even the most hopeful have to admit, is that the unctuous European tactic of flattering, praising, massaging Trump has been a catastrophic failure and made things worse.

This was murder. Trump is defending a murder, a murder committed on his behalf.

America is not being made safe. It is becoming more dangerous each and every day because Donald Trump is a criminal who commands and encourages others to commit crimes on his behalf—as he has done for years.
Trump: "I have just viewed the clip of the event which took place in Minneapolis. It is a horrible thing to watch. The woman screaming was, obviously, a professional agitator, and the woman driving the car was very disorderly, obstructing and resisting ... "

"No mainstream reporter has the stomach to say, 'By the way, this administration lies all the time and we should assume this is a lie too' after every unsupported statement." They should, because it's true.

It's great that reporting on the double tap has spotlighted the abject criminality of this Administration.

But don't forget: Venezuela is not waging war on America or Americans, and the men killed were not combatants.

The first strike was every bit as illegal as the second.

"Kids will get sick because of what the CDC just did. Some of them will die. But the even bigger story is that the U.S. government is no longer a reliable source of information." Trump's messes can be fixed; maybe not this man's.

The referenced movie (Rovina’s Choice) is very moving. It’s only 22 minutes, worth a watch.
