You know you are in trouble when your so-called allies donāt want you around. One more brick in the wall for ole Trumpie. ETTD.

Just out of curiosity, is āJohnsonā a euphemism for penis in Britain?

Close. The phrase āJohn Thomasā has been used in the past. Not sure of derivation, but I donāt think itās used very much anymore.

Cāmon, Trump, embrace Boris as hard as possible during your visit!

I woke feeling positive about the systematic take down of Trump, and by extension the GOP, by whatever powers that be (deep state? shut your mouth!) When you look at the overall picture, Trump is desperately unhinged, frantically racing around trying to plug the dyke.

Thatās the NATO conference in London next week, is it not? Iām thinking weāre going to see some āFranco-Prussianā negative energy directed toward the Trumpster. Heās certain to announce the cutting of US funding. Perhaps the Euros should just toss him out before he can pull the US out entirely. More popcorn sales.

Good Lord, no. Canāt imagine something that would be more favorable to Putin than tearing apart NATO.

The problem is the sabotaging from within. At some point this ceases to be inside pissing out when, while pissing out, heās shitting inside the tent. The Euros are well aware that Trump maybe gone in a year, but they are also aware that our āpeculiarā system could easily produce another Trump-like creature. Macron is talking about a European defense network since as Merkel says, the US has become an unreliable partner. Of a possible future without us they must think.

But theyāre in no place militarily either now or in the coming years to mount a credible defence of EU turf without us. Make no mistake, that fighting in Ukraine ground to a halt and that the Baltics and Poland didnāt have their own green men episodes was due to the swift response of the US to move into place and in force, even though it was only a few token thousand, that was enough to deter russia from further direct military intervention.
If we pull out, heād fairly easily sweep them away. True, he wouldnāt go for Germany (old natural allies, anyways, despite the occasional family spat) or France, but heād definitely hit the baltics, the balkans and Poland.
