I think he's been trying to do it from the start - he just isn't bright enough to make it stick, is all.

It would be just typical of the week to find out that the 28 point plan was written by Chat Gpt in India.

You're saying 'no there aren't loads of problems'?

Congress is democratically elected. With a GOP majority, democratically elected, is it not entitled to support him?

I can't put into the words the visceral hatred I feel towards the administration in the US. The pain their behaviour is causing to Ukrainians is unforgivable.

Ukrainians have russians terrorising them with missiles & drones. Now the US is terrorising them with russian demands for capitulation.

Europe's focus appears to have been trying to keep America focused. Well, that's obviously not going to be possible so...

...time to butter its own bread.

In fairness, he did this first last February. It's not new to us. He just doesn't have the intelligence - or the people - to make it stick.

But yes, he needs to be... removed. That would indeed solve many problems.

Let's see can Europe roll up its sleeves, finally.

Biden failed on this too.

Admittedly not quite as badly as Trump has failed - but failed, he also did.

The US position should be simply to allow Ukraine, along with Europe, to set out its solutions - and then support them unflinchingly in achieving them.

No messing. No double-speak. No changing sides or inexplicable flip-flopping.

100% backing - whatever it takes.

Alas and alack...

This is or isn't the problem... that is or isn't isn't the problem...

They're all problems.

The US has worked by honor and a handshake up until Trump.

The US was never great - it was always deeply flawed... and just very, very lucky for the longest time.

Time to reinvent the whole damn idea.

The complete clusterfuck around this American 28 point plan is only staggering.

The administration's total lack of both understanding of and empathy towards the situation in #Ukraine should be enough to have them all resign in utter embarrassment.

Alas and alack...

Agreed. To not have found this form could have broken him. It's not over yet but he's done everything right lately. Would love to see him finish it off now.

And, ye, it definitely causes some real stupidity.

It's not cool to say it out loud but Sainz is not given enough credit for being an absolute menace.

The amount of collisions, bumps, shunts, knocks and other dangers that he causes is just crazy.

But he's popular so... shhhhh! 🀐

Have they both raised the $2,000,000 that pardons cost nowadays then?

Is it a purple patch or has he just turned on the 'champion mode' in the last few races?

Different beast from here on, I suspect. Next level.

A coat? It's winter time - you're not even supposed to be wearing a t-shirt.

At most, your jersey is just for helicoptering around above your head.

If ever there was a time for #Europe to stand up, it's now. #Trump is a snake and the #US is done.

No more words.

It's time to put European jets into Ukrainian airspace and start pummeling Russian positions. It's the only way now. Europe has to involve itself deirectly.

Donald Trump getting angry at journalists again today. 

Getting asked regularly about rape and child abuse must be annoying after a while.

Opinion | Jamal Khashoggi: What the Arab world needs most is free expression The Arab world needs a modern version of the old transnational media so citizens can be informed about global events.

I will never forget having to edit Jamal’s final, posthumous piece for the Washington Post, after he was murdered.

He was calling for free expression in the Arab world. You can read it here :

Why is Trump so meek when beside foreign authoritarians?

He's like a 12 year old boy meeting his favourite football player.

He is so psychologically damaged.

They need to start testing candidates as part of the presidential race.
