Winston Peters obviously likes Trump's world. He just rebuked the NZRB for supporting the US Federal Reserve Bank chair, Jerome Powell.

“The incomes of rich grew much faster in countries where tax rates were lowered. Instead of trickling down to middle class, tax cuts for the rich may not accomplish much more than help the rich keep more of their riches & exacerbate income inequality” Like NZ. #nzpol

50 years of tax cuts for the rich failed to trickle down, economics study says
Tax cuts for the wealthy didn't boost the economies of the U.S. and 17 other countries — but they did worsen income inequality.

An interesting scenario. Under NATO rules an attack on one member is considered an attack on all. What happens if one NATO member 'attacks' or invades/annexes another member, like Trump is threatening to annexe Greenland!

The 2019 Christchurch NZ massacre occurred during Trump's presidency. Bondi, Australia massacre 2025 once again in Trump's presidency. Coincidence? Racist radicals & religious bigots seem to feel entitled by the US president's cruelty & divisive rhetoric. Leader's words & examples have consequences.
