Orbiting the centre. Reason and respect in all exchanges. Swimming against the tide of ignorance, superstition and authoritarianism.
I now believe that Trump got Norway and Denmark mixed up when he decided to put the arm on Greenland ( because he is low IQ and uneducated) but now can't reverse up so he'll carry on anyway

Light bulb moment here, thank you.

These guys look like they're raiding a heavily fortified Russian bunker on the front lines in occupied Ukraine, not a suburban home in Minneapolis.

Can someone point them in the direction of a real war if they like playing soldier so much?

BREXIT is still laying eggs.

'A significant portion of UK farmers supported Brexit in the 2016 referendum (...)to escape EU regulations (Common Agricultural Policy) & *regain control* but ( there are)significant challenges, especially concerning subsidies and new trade deals.' (Gemini assist)

You have to factor in the strategic military genius of the US Secretary of War before you write off the Venezuelan adventure.

For f**ks sake, stop playing along with the rolling bait & switch tag game between Putin and Trump.

Putin is managing his asset with top KGB skills.

The veil of negotiation, always ' to be continued' freezes US action.

Russia celebrates as Zelensky is openly mocked in the White House.

We can't disown our politicians. They are what we are.

The skill we need is discernment. Who is the best fit for the office?

The office is constitutional,symbolic and ceremonial.

Vote!

Germans threw in their lot with Hitler,a man with none of the qualities of great Germans,because,through mass rallies & propaganda, people thought - everyone seems to think he's the right man for us,so me too.

America needs mass popular rallies against Trump to create a new narrative.

There's nothing as dangerous as a weak man given the opportunity to play the strong man for a while.

but look at the reality on the ground in Portland before and after Trump's military intervention .

Or maybe that's back to front

*Apologies to Mariupol, Ukraine - which Trump tried to extort back in the day.

It's not dementia.

Trump is profoundly,deeply, irretrievably ignorant.

He has Malignant Narcissistic personality disorder.

Putin owns him

He's drugged to hell and back

but...

He has more power than any other human alive.

So here we are.

There are very few honourable options for the press pack now.

1. Boycott in solidarity with ABC

2. Turn up and all ask the same question

3. Work as a pack,follow up relentlessly on this issue

4. Stage a protest when Trump starts to insult any one of them.

Acceptance is surrender
