In response to US progressives say stop supporting 'rogue genocidal regime' as Israel wages illegal war on Iran

The president has no clothes

The underlying truth barely mentioned in this article is the truth about Trump. For all his chest-beating and deal-making, world leaders see him for the joke he is. Putin and Netanyahu pay him lip service and continue to do as they please, as conquering whatever territory they choose knowing that the self-proclaimed king is naked.

Meanwhile, the rest of the world leaders go about circumventing Trump’s economic reforms, limiting their losses in the knowledge that it is the US that is suffering the most. Hopefully, Albanese is up to the job of putting Australia first.

Mexico and Canada are preparing to close their borders to a flood of refugees fleeing the Trump-induced US civil war, successfully dispelling three US myths in the first six months of his presidency:

1.Trump the magnificent. 2. US democracy. What democracy? 3. US superiority. A superior arms dealer probably.
