Rules:

Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.

We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.

All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.

Shame you can't reach through a phone line and yank his vocal chords out

Embarrassing dangerous clown country.

Frederiksen offered closer co-operation with the US on military bases and mineral exploitation on the island, but senior European officials said Trump baulked at the offer, demanding full US control.

You could get everything without being a colonialist bully! FFS.

I was hoping it would say someone finally told Trump, "Bitch, get back in your place because no one is putting up with your shit." Imagine my disappointment at the reasonable attempt to lower tensions and appease.

Serious politicians (and I use that term loosely) are not used to dealing with someone as utterly demented as trump on a daily basis. They're used to long boring meetings and talking politely behind each others backs. Not ... this.

People had a hard time understanding Hitler at first, too, and he wrote a fucking book about what he was about to do before he actually went and did it.

Hope the US empire goes crumbling down now that the fascist wanna be dictator is in power.
