@RpsAgainstTrump NATO I about mutual DEFENCE, like when much of NATO helped out after 9/11. It is not about mutual aggression in an illegal war

Rubio: “If NATO is just about us defending Europe if they’re attacked but then denying us basing rights when we need them, that’s not a very good arrangement. That’s a hard one to stay engaged in and say this is good for the United States…All of it’s going to have to be reexamined”

Trump: "Today is a very special day. It's a day where we celebrate Jesus. It's a day where we celebrate religion. It's an honor to be the president. Our country is doing so well. We've broken every record in the stock market. We've broken every record in our military. And what about the rescue?"

@RpsAgainstTrump Just out of interest, what languages can theDonald speak? In truth, I am not too sure about his command of American, let alone any other

Trump: “I'm polling higher than anybody has ever polled in Venezuela. So after I'm finished with this, I can go to Venezuela. I will quickly learn Spanish. It won't take long. I'm good at language. I will go to Venezuela. I'm going to run for president”

Lovely sentiments. Sad Donald's mate Netanyahu has closed the churches in Bethlehem and Jerusalem over the Easter period. Maybe Donald might like to have a word with him

Trump on Friday: “In churches across the nation on Sunday, the pews will be fuller, younger, and more faithful than they have at any time in many, many years. Religion is growing again in our country”

Leavitt begins the press briefing: "Could you hear our 'amen' in there? We just had a little loud prayer as a team. In this holy week, President Trump and the First Lady are joining in prayer with Christians celebrating the resurrection of our lord and savior, Jesus Christ."

I am a volunteer - so basically, unregulated and irresponsible, doing what he wants and what benefits him

Jared Kushner: “I have not joined the administration, so I’m still a volunteer, like the other businessmen who step up to help the government when asked. The level of commitment has been far greater than I anticipated. It really started with Gaza…” (2025)

When will these guys realise that Ukraine was invaded by Russia and is fighting a defensive war, and Iran was bombed while negotiations were under way b Israel and America. We defend Ukraine - and would help defend America. We do not bomb Iran

Rubio: “There was a couple of leaders in Europe who said that this was not Europe's war. Well, Ukraine is not America's war and yet we've contributed more to that fight than any other country in the world."

Burgum: President Trump's policies are working to build alliances around the world.
English
Yes, they are a vile administration. Yes, we would be better off without them. But this is not the way to do it.
English
No you would not - because you have not. They have always said they wanted no nukes and often allowed inspection - and you bombed them mid negotiations
Acyn@Acyn
Ron Johnson: All they had to do was say they're not going to pursue nuclear weapons, open themselves up to inspections—we would have left them alone.

They are holding the world to ransome with - nothing. If they have nothing, what are the Straits of Hormuz closed?

Journalist, "Pope Leo is calling for a ceasefire with Iran" President Trump, "I don't want a ceasefire" "You don't do a ceasefire when you're literally obliterating the other side. They don't have a navy, they don't have an air force. They don't have any equipment. No spotters. No anti aircraft. No radar. And their leaders have all been killed at every level" "We're not looking to do that (ceasefire)"

@Acyn Which just goes to show how much wealth they have. Tax must be progressive and proportional
English
Foxx: One of our colleagues just talked about the fact that wealthy people pay small percentages of their income on taxes. But what he didn't say is they pay over 50% of all the taxes paid in this country, and that working class people don't pay nearly as much as they do.

Happy to help defend you, but not to join him in aggressive wars of your choice
Aaron Rupar@atrupar
Trump: "This is the greatest thing to come out of this. We spend trillions on NATO to defend other countries, and I always said but if it ever comes time to defend us, they're not gonna be there. Many of them would not be there. And we're gonna have to start thinking more wisely in this country."

Who is 'we'? Trump and his friends do well out of high oil prices. You and I do not!
Aaron Rupar@atrupar
WELKER: Trump posted that 'when oil prices go up, we make a lot of money.' But previously he argued consumers benefit from lower oil prices. So which is it? WRIGHT: Oh, in general, lower oil prices. But he's just making an economic point. It does bring a lot of money into the US economy.
