What does a TRUMP presidency look like?

He's also, apparently, threatening stepping up sanctions against Russia if they don't negotiate.

[Tamas]

Has he actually maintained a new tariff longer than a day or two? I think anyone still thinking Trump is a good leader is a hopeless case and should be ignored politically. There won't be getting through to them.

Sanctions already in place and empty tariffs threat since there's no commerce between the two countries.

It's OK since then he has declared that he is finding it easier to deal with Putin who is only doing in Ukraine what everyone in his situation would be doing.

Also the thing about Ukraine holding no cards. He is very fond of that expression.

Trump is threating Canada again over milk tariffs.

[Grey Fox]

Well, that's an empty threat. Insignificant amount of dry milk powder from Canada to the USA based on the Canadian customers consumption while the USA over produces milk.

USA exports of the same thing is only available in amounts negotiated in USMCA.

Softwood lumber is big though.

10 Democrats voted with the GOP in favor of censuring Al Green.

bravo

Now how many Republicans will vote for censuring Trump for personally insulting a member of Congress in his address?

My money is on zero.

They are still going to buy it anyway.

Our mills are going to move south to shift their production there and avoid the tariffs.

They'd still pay the tariff on the wood they imported to process.

Exclusive: US CDC plans study into vaccines and autism, sources say

Glad they're getting rid of all the "useless" research to focus on the "real science."

YouTube commenters have taken over the government.

I want to think that the Trump experience will have the positive effect of setting  back the European far right a bit - our far right party is completely in shambles at the moment, split down the middle between the leadership - essentially Trump psychophants - and old school ultranationalists, while tying themselves into knots to defend some pretty ludicrous stuff given their alleged ideology. I mean, yesterday we had the leader of the party publicly defending that the EU drop existing tariffs against the US. That's quite the position for a self-proclaimed antiglobalist party.
