The foreign policy of a nation often reflects its leader. Our foreign policy is now churlish, acquisitive, brutish, impulsive, reckless, callous, boorish, expansionist, shallow, ignorant, exploitive, nasty, manipulative, corrupt and unethical. A reflection of our president.

Here’s what Trump does:
1. Creates a crisis that hurts a lot of people
2. Frames the crisis as a good thing
3. The crisis gets really bad
4. Trump then reverses his bad decision and takes credit for ending the crisis he created
5. MAGA eats it up
Every. Single. Time.

Can someone explain why TikTok is a bigger national security concern than a social media platform run by a South African technofeudal oligarch actively interfering in our elections and sabotaging our national interests here and abroad?

Trump could easily stay quiet on these fires until he is President, but he is so weak he needs a villan and needs to be the victim.

A 1.5% popular-vote plurality (<50%). A 128K-vote swing in 3 states and Harris is POTUS. One of the narrowest wins in decades. Won the battleground states but nearly all—sans Arizona—by a hair, and the Democrats took battleground-state Senate seats to keep the Senate close. The House is even closer.
"Repeat after me: there was no 'landslide'. There was no 'blowout'. There was no 'sweeping' mandate given to Trump by the electorate. The numbers don’t lie."

I hope everyone is paying close attention to how the Hunter Biden pardon is being covered.
If you wondered why Trump and his cronies can betray America and commit ceaseless crimes for years without consequences but Democrats can't right obviously partisan wrongs, the current media reaction is why.
