Just making sure this is sarcasm? The "immigrant taking jobs away from Americans" she refers to is Elon Musk.
 
Not only are we again a laughing stock under Trump, but we’re also bordering on being a threat to global stability. What a mess.

European leaders gather for an emergency meeting over fear Trump has isolated age-old allies

French President Emmanuel Macron has called leaders from key European Union nations and the United Kingdom for an emergency meeting Monday.

Note to the Callas who will undoubtedly try to prop this up that “being feared” is a position of strength: There’s a stark difference between being feared “as a leader” vs being feared as a loose cannon and regarded as a liability. We have clearly become the latter.

My nephew-in-law is in charge of a nat'l forest district in AZ. He is at this moment just off on a friggin Disney cruise and coming home to this shit. Trumper you ask? Of course as are most of his rangers and other staff.

Update. He still has his job. 20 of his Rangers were let go. Oops! They are firefighters as well. 19 are rehired. One already found another job.

Believe this will be the normal reaction to mass firings. Government plays a huge part in a host of societal needs. Someones' gotta do the work.

So Joe Biden withheld giving Israel bombs that could blow Palestine off the map, but Trump doesn't hesitate to send them.

Way to think it through, Dearborn. Hope your symbolic abstinence was worth it.

You don't think Israel, if it wanted to, couldn't have wiped Gaza/Palestine off the map by now?

I don't think Trump trying to end the Ukraine/Russia war is about fear. Biden and the rest of the world have had plenty of time to figure out an end to the war. What's wrong with letting Trump try?

Depending on the outcome, it may not be bad, right?

Giving Russia what they want is a bad outcome. Bad for Ukraine. Bad for Europe. Bad for NATO. Bad for the US.

Grow the fuck up.

There is only one outcome for letting Trump “try.” Giving Russia Ukraine. That’s it.

No I don’t, because the previous administration wouldn’t have allowed it to happen. This current administration clearly welcomes it.

That's a different topic. You mentioned that it's apparently an issue for Israel to have these bombs from the US because it allows Israel to wipe Gaza/Palestine off the planet. Do you not think Israel had the fire power to do that before these bombs were delivered?

I guess you didn't read the tacit assent on the packing list.

Pretty sure most would agree that conceding a soverign nation/ally to an aggressor/enemy isn't an acceptable resolution to this, but I guess you're cool with that—for the record?
