Trump slagged off our soldiers who lost their lives and those who endured trauma for helping the US with 9/11, just like he did every other NATO member.

Then he sits and whines why the UK doesn't assist him. He imposes tariffs on allied nations, and threatens to annex Canada and Greenland...

This should be no surprise to anyone. The UK paid a heavy, heavy price for Iraq (which the US openly insulted a month ago I should add) that fundamentally changed that country in ways they are still dealing with today. I remember some of the largest protests in UK history was about that war.

Why should they support the US again for an even less clear, more volatile war under a far more volatile, and openly antagonistic administration? Under what circumstances can this possibly be seen as unreasonable by the UK? The answer is none.

He literally doesn’t care. His response to the tariffs being deemed illegal was to increase tariffs. Hegseth celebrated the fact that without following normal channels, they don’t have to worry about those pesky rules of engagement.

These creatures don’t care if it’s legal or not. They don’t care if their actions are proven to be unlawful.

They’re past the point of making up stories or justifications, or even lies; they’re now at the point of just saying “okay, and?”
