He’s not called Taco for nothing!

The deployment of special forces troops from NATO nations to Greenland will dampen his ardour too.

I suppose that will count as another war that he’s stopped 🙄

I think what would be best for the world is for one of his 'excursions' to go terribly wrong and then see how he tries to defend it.
No doubt he'd blame everyone but himself.
But I suspect it would put a dent in his support.
Once the cracks start to really appear watch the rats desert the ship.
Watch Rubio in particular. ;)

There was a story in the paper today about how Richard Nixon successfully leaned on the then Chair of the Federal Reserve to lower interest rates in the lead up to the 1972 elections to improve his re-election chances.  The upshot of this was the inflation rate (which was 3.2% in 1972) rose to over 12% by the end of the decade.

The world economy will get whacked if Donny boy gets to set his own rates by replacing Jerome Powell with a patsy when his term ends in April.
This is now the longest premiership drought in the history of the Carlton Football Club - more evidence of climate change?

Venezuelan opposition leader María Corina Machado said she had presented her Nobel Peace Prize to US President Donald Trump during a high-stakes encounter that could affect how Trump seeks to shape the South American country’s political future.

But the Nobel Prize people said it is 'not possible' for an award winner to pass the prize onto someone else.

It was a silly, empty gesture.
It's not transferable and it can't be rescinded.
It's 'hers' and 'hers' alone.

And there's the strange thing...She's a Nobel Prize winner and that indicates she's fought very hard for the rights of her people.
She could have come at Trump from a position of strength.
Instead she chose to come meekly, offering much desired gifts and hoping for his support.

He'll say, "Thank you very much...Look what I've won"...and do diddly squat for her and her supporters as long as the current regime stays on his good side.

Nixon was motivated by an unsubstantiated belief that the Democrats were conspiring to seize power ... but that's where the similarity ends.

She was just giving it to the rightful winner.
