God, even amid everything else, this sentence is so fucking rancid.
Ahhh remember when orange man was complaining about that Obama golfing so much? istrumpgolfing.today/comparison/
Dude we are way past that piddly shit
World leaders should take turns golfing with trump for a couple years.
When you have no balls, then you golf.
In a speech in Davos on Tuesday, Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney urged “middle powers” to unite to push back against the might-makes-right world of great power rivalry that he warned was emerging.
“When we only negotiate bilaterally with a hegemon, we negotiate from weakness. We accept what is offered. We compete with each other to be the most accommodating,” he warned. “This is not sovereignty. It is the performance of sovereignty while accepting subordination.”
Take note EU.
Hopefully it pans out as the neighbor. But I still totally agree with that statement even if it fucks us, then if it does but we won’t roll over quietly…I hope. Fascists cannot be appeased, let alone toddler narcissists who want their next soother. Someone needs to put that baby to bed. Placating but not appeasing them I mean, like you do a fussy toddler, not saying violence. No teaching this toddler but sometimes they can understand their place and stop making as big of a fuss and have a minor one when he doesn’t get his diet coke.
What do you think unblocked the EU trade deals with Mercosur and India? Suddenly almost all the grievances became small inconveniences in comparison.
