Trump lies so often that it's hard to tell whether he is pathological or delusional. Neither is good, of course.

According to Trump, everything is somehow about him and what he wants. No one else stands for any real principles against him because no one can be better than he is.

If people don't hold the line against this lunatic, everything will only get worse.

- Ok so “Jonas Gahr Støre declared 3 days of national mourning and has promised to punish the Nobel Prize Committee for their poor decision making”… or something
 
There are times when I really have these questions you know…

:)

I didn’t see anything in that article regarding three days of mourning or a threat to the Nobel Committee. Are you sure that’s the right link?

No. I was making a joke about the title: “Trump tells Norway he no longer feels obligation to think only of peace”.
 
D. Trump brings me to laugh on many occasions. But this time he sounds like “If you don’t give me a Nolbel Price than I won’t play anymore and I do war everywhere all I want and you will be sorry for not giving that peace price to meeee!!!!” 
 
- So I don’t know. I’ve seen a lot of D. Trump since 2016 but this time I really wonder if he still has it all in there if you know what I mean.

Trump Posts A Photo Where Canada and Greenland Are American Colonies.

Quote:President Donald Trump has shared an image, seemingly AI-edited, that shows him sitting alongside a map of the U.S. that includes Greenland, Canada and Venezuela as he speaks to European leaders.

The picture, posted on Truth Social on Monday night, appears to be an edited version of a photograph taken when leaders, including French President Emmanuel Macron, British Prime Minister Keir Starmer and European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen, went to Washington in August 2025.

Another AI-generated image shows Trump, Vice President JD Vance and Secretary of State Marco Rubio in Greenland while Trump erects an American flag in the ground, next to a sign that reads: Greenland - U.S. Territory. Est. 2026."

A quote from one of the readers commenting on a Fox News article: "Trying to provoke both a world war and a civil war at the same time while demanding a Nobel Peace prize is a level of insanity we’ve never seen ever before."

It seems no one has the guts to stand up to Trump, which leaves me thinking the only thing we can hope for is him eating one McD's too many.

I am astonished by how many members of Congress have just rolled over. Some of them talk a good talk but no one is really doing a thing other than talking.

From a UK point of view, I was gladdened to see both Keir Starmer and even more surprisingly, Nigel Farage, standing up at least a little to Trump in these speeches yesterday:


I'm not a huge fan of either of these people, much less Farage, but I have to say my opinion of both of them has improved a little because of this.

^ I was amazed to hear this from Starmer.

And, yes, I hope a greasy glob of Big Mac lodges in the tangerine shitgibbon's craw and he succumbs before medical help arrives, or only enough to incapacitate him further. Apologies to tangerines. And gibbons.

Yep, me too (amazed to hear this from Starmer)... it may even be enough to get me to vote for him next election.

Might as well. The guy’s practically a walking corpse as it is.
