rutte just agreed with whatever trump said, as you do with people who have dementia. it’s the easiest way to get them to move on to another topic

alecta, a swedish pension fund sold $800,000 million in US bonds. if this accelerates US interest rates and inflation will spike and the dollar and US stocks will crash

in many states a judicial warrant is required to enter a place of work or an occupied vehicle as well.

he’s dangerous because he’s so stupid

...never mind twice

they are still in shock at the stupidity. it doesn't mean the felon has the upper hand (although he's dumb enough to think so). behind the scenes they are already dumping U.S. bonds, which if it accelerates, will spike US interest rates & inflation and crash the dollar & stocks...

not that easy with a full diaper...

even the most spineless republicans in congress will eventually pull the plug...which may have to be soon, since large european funds are selling off U.S. bonds...an acceleration could spike interest (and inflation) and crash the dollar (and stocks). it would bring the US economy to its knees

lutnick is an idiot to begin with but they're acting like the felon has the upper hand 😂 europe hasn't reacted firmly yet, because they're still in shock that someone could be so stupid...

i’m an american that doesn’t support this shit, even while living overseas
January 20, 2026 at 8:19 PM
or american voters are not educated enough to care?
January 20, 2026 at 8:08 PM
😂 so why does the U.S. have zero control now?
January 20, 2026 at 7:54 PM
wouldn't it make more sense to prioritize a decision on tariffs? since the lunatic in the white house is currently (illegally) using tariffs to threaten allies?

if you're going to neuter congress you might as well have a eunuch help you...

there are a few more lenders who also own part of the U.S. debt. when they come to collect, they won't care about the U.S. military. but should it become an issue, china has 2.1 million active duty soldiers, nearly twice as many as the U.S. when the money is cut off, the U.S. will be on its knees
January 20, 2026 at 6:18 PM
nope. it's all about money. whoever owns the loans, owns the borrowers. if you don't pay your mortgage the bank repossesses your house and kicks you to the curb. in this case europe is the bank and the U.S. the borrower. the U.S. military is not going to war if they are not funded.

europe owns over $10 trillion of the U.S. debt in assets (mostly bonds and equities) more than twice as much as the rest of all other lenders to the U.S. if europe decided to sell them, the U.S. economy would collapse and there would be no funds for the military or other government functions
January 20, 2026 at 12:58 PM
it doesn't when you're dealing with a convicted felon.
he will be held in check soon (latest november). until then treat him like the criminal he is. play the same game. double every tariff he threatens with and put it on U.S. digital services or other products. he will give up in 2 weeks
January 20, 2026 at 11:57 AM
actually...average IQ's in most european countries are significantly higher than in the U.S., quality of life, standard of living and life expectancy are also significantly higher while crime is significantly lower. so what exactly does europe not have on the U.S.?
January 20, 2026 at 10:54 AM
the average IQ in the U.S. would increase by 20 points too
January 20, 2026 at 10:50 AM
he keeps claiming he is 6' 3". he's 5' 9" at best (and that's with lifts). in a photo taken at the WH while he was standing next to cristiano ronaldo (the soccer player) who is 6' 2", the felon looked at least 6" shorter than him
