The is not a new deal - this is Trump surrendering. For now. They have always said that the US & NATO is free to do what it wants in Greenland from a military perspective. Trump said that wasnât good enough because he needs the US to âownâ it. So this is simply Trump backing down

Trump has burned our standing to ash. After this, we cannot condemn Putin in Ukraine or block China from Taiwan. Power without law is rot. The light we claimed for democracy is shattered. This was the straw that broke us. We have entered the darkest reflection of ourselves.

He wants to kill Obamacare, but has no other plan. He is not satisfied with his deportation operation because his ICE agents are not abusive enough. He plans to continue murdering people in the Caribbean Sea because the law and these humans are of no concern to him. All this thanks to John Roberts.

Teach Republicans a 'painful lesson': Shutdown tips for Democrats from a former GOP strategist
With no end in sight to the government shutdown, Donald Trump and OMB Director Russell Vought are threatening to fire civil servants en masse and freeze federal funds. They claim Democrats are forcing their hands â but this is exactly what the Trump administration has been doing all along, as laid out in the Project 2025 playbook. âThereâs going to be a political consequence to this that the Republicans will have to eat,â and Democrats should want to teach the Republican base a âpainful lesson,â former GOP strategist Rick Wilson tells Ali Velshi.
