Ah, sorry. I wish people wouldn't use quotes (") if it's not a quote.

I fear it's becoming a bit of a global phenomenon. Hopefully the USA can act as a warning to the rest of the world that this type of politics does not help humanity.

I don't understand how he could say such a thing and keep his job. Isn't it the role of the DOJ to prosecute criminals, including rapists and pedophiles? WTF is wrong with these people? The USA is fast becoming a failed state.

It’s a familiar and sadly effective strategy. She is just another useful idiot for the obscenely wealthy.

The USA needs to get its head out of the Old Testament and into the real world. Has Schumer read Leviticus 19:19 where it says do not wear clothing woven of two kinds of material? Polyester-Cotton anyone? Has Hegseth read Leviticus 19:28 where it says do not put tattoo marks on yourselves?

It seems that society can no longer hold ultra wealthy men accountable for their crimes any more. Consequently, we need to rid society of ultra wealthy men lest they commit more crimes with impunity.

These people are thinly disguised racists not Christians and not patriots. With their help, America has surrendered to corporate criminals who are looting the entire country.

It's illogical that people, and the media in particular, try and rationalise the ravings of a complete madman, especially one who was so ignorant and stupid even before he went mad. But it is fun watching his supporters and the media twist themselves into knots trying to make some sense of it all.

I suspect the situation with Iran could be solved very quickly if the USA simply shut up and withdrew troops. Let the rest of the world (excluding Israel) deal with the situation like adults who actually want peace.

It's not possible for Iran, or anyone else, to agree with everything Trump says because so much of it is contradictory.

Really, not statesman like? It’s not even adult like! He talks like a five year old.

Seems to me that racism is a sort of blasphemy. Wasn’t Jesus dark skinned?

The Pope has nothing to fear because, unlike most American politicians, he is not in the Epstein files.

Pope Leo is strong on compassion. I think it's part of his job description as laid down by his boss in the New Testament. Trump is not soft on crime. He is crime.

Dead people receive more flowers than the living because the regret is stronger than gratitude.

Anne Frank

They don’t call it the Red Centre for nothing. Absolutely beautiful.

Every country has a small percentage of criminally insane people. But only the USA elected one as their leader and then refused to remove him while he destroys everything they stand for and murders thousands of innocent people.

The only peace Israel wants is a piece of someone else’s land.

Sadly I’ve never seen anything that comes close to the aerodynamics of a natural feather. Millions of years of evolution behind them. Plastic shuttles don’t even come close.

Perhaps the glorification of hate and violence is worse than the glorification of stupidity? Or perhaps they are the same thing?

Iranian citizens have more courage than US politicians who have the power but not the courage to simply vote to remove their mad leader.

It seems that republicans see hate and violence as signs of strength and love and compassion as signs of weakness. Not sure why they think they are Christians. Have they not read the New Testament, or just not understood it?

It was entirely predictable. He was a conman and thief before he entered politics. Giving him the power of the presidency just removed any guard rails. Trump’s “presidency” is the biggest con in history. Half the country fell for it and over a third still haven’t figured it out yet. Gullible fools.

Surely, that's not a real post, is it?

"The man who dies rich, dies disgraced. Wealth is not to feed our egos, but to feed the hungry. No man becomes rich unless he enriches others"

(who knew a thing or two about being wealthy)

What does the US stands for these days? Seems to exist only to make more money for the few. Nothing is beyond exploitation; not human suffering, religion, or war. Not even the rule of law is allowed to get in the way of profit. The US should change its motto from In God We trust to Greed Is Good.

NASA's Blue Marble picture of Earth, from 1972

It's only worth going back to the Moon if it makes us look properly again at Earth, and appreciate how beautiful, precious and fragile what we have here is. The most famous images from Apollo aren't about the Moon - they're pictures of Earth. We need to stop taking our home for granted.

America returns to the Stone Age. They’ll be burning witches again soon. Someone should tell them that Jesus had brown skin and came from Palestine. That would put an end to their fake Christianity.

America is the only country in the world stupid enough to elect a criminally insane and corrupt pedophile to the presidency, and let him remain there while he starts stupid wars and steals from voters.
THANK YOU FOR YOUR ATTENTION TO THIS MATTER.

It’s a very different experience for Canadians watching Trump with some perspective. This is not like term 1. That man has dementia and Americans appear to be in a state of paralysis while they let the mad King fuck the world over. No one will ever forgive this.
