This Australian's reply to Trump's rant about “NATO not being there for America” is perfect.
"Mate. You run a country with 600,000 homeless people sleeping on the street tonight. A country where 40% of adults can't cover a $400 emergency without borrowing money. A country where insulin costs more than a car payment and people are rationing it to survive. A country where medical debt is the number 1 cause of bankruptcy. A country where women are dying in hospital car parks because doctors are too scared of abortion laws to treat a miscarriage.
You lock up more of your own citizens than any nation on earth. More than China. More than Russia. More than North Korea. The land of the free has 2 million people in cages, and a quarter of them haven't even been convicted of anything. They're just too poor to make bail.
Your life expectancy is going backwards. You're the only developed nation where that's happening. Your infant mortality rate is worse than Cuba's. Your kids do active shooter drills between maths and English while you sell the gunmaker's stock to your mates.
Your minimum wage hasn't moved in 15 years. You've got teachers working 2 jobs and veterans sleeping under bridges and you just spent a trillion dollars flattening a country that didn't attack you.
And you’ve got a convicted felon, adjudicating raping, paedophile protecting, porn star shagging insurrectionist running the biggest dumpster fire war campaign since the Taliban thanked you very much for losing again.
And you're calling Greenland poorly run?
Greenland has universal healthcare. Free education. One of the lowest incarceration rates in the world. Nobody goes bankrupt there because they got sick. Nobody dies in a waiting room because their insurance said no.
'NATO wasn't there when we needed them." When exactly was that, champ? September 11? Because NATO invoked Article 5 for the first and only time in history FOR YOU. Soldiers from dozens of countries deployed, fought, bled, and died in Afghanistan FOR YOU. Australia wasn't even in NATO and we still showed up. For 20 years.
And you pulled out at 2am without telling anyone and left them to deal with the mess.
So maybe before you start calling other countries poorly run, have a look at your own backyard, you spray-tanned aluminium siding salesman. The only thing poorly run in this picture is your f----- mouth."

Very well stated.

Trump is once again “joking” about giving himself the Medal of Honor, the United States’ highest military award for valor.

This is the guy who dodged the draft with a fake “bone spurs.”, reportedly called fallen troops “suckers” and “losers,” said avoiding STDs in the ‘80s was “my personal Vietnam,” and mocked POWs by saying, “I like people who weren’t captured.”

And now he thinks he deserves the Medal of Honor?

Absolutely disgusting.

[Dr. Dave @drdave1999]

After watching Trump melt down in narcissistic rage this morning, I’m close to saying that the entire U.S. government needs to be impeached for allowing this poseur to remain in office for even one more day.

No nation in history has ever had a more mentally ill leader.

BREAKING: Music legend Bruce Springsteen drops a bomb on MAGA world by announcing a surprise nationwide tour to defend America against "our wannabe king" and his "rogue government."

Best of all? The first stop is in Minneapolis.

"Fans, friends, and good folk from coast to coast. We are living through dark, disturbing, and dangerous times, but do not despair. The cavalry is coming," The Boss said in an announcement video.

"Bruce Springsteen and the E Street Band will be taking the stage this spring from Minneapolis to California to Texas to Washington, D.C. for the Land of Hope and Dreams American Tour," he continued. "We will be rocking your town in celebration and in defense of America, American democracy, American freedom, our American Constitution, and our sacred American dream, all of which are under attack by our wannabe king and his rogue government in Washington, D.C."

"Everyone, regardless of where you stand or what you believe in, is welcome," Springsteen added. "So come on out and join the united free republic of E Street Nation for an American spring of rock and rebellion. I'll see you there."

By starting the tour in Minneapolis, Springsteen is intentionally drawing attention to the brutal violence and killings that Trump has inflicted on the city with his masked federal agents. The singer composed the hit song "Streets of Minneapolis" in response to the ICE crackdowns. It went on to chart #1 in 21 countries.

The tour starts March 31st and will entail 20-date arena showings. The timing is an absolute disaster for Trump, because it means the bard of blue collar America will be hammering his administration at one sold-out show after another. Given his rock bottom approval rating and worsening Epstein scandal, Trump can scarcely afford more bad press ahead of the midterm elections.

Springsteen has proven to be one of Trump's most formidable and outspoken foes. He recognizes that this president has betrayed the working class that populate so many of his hit songs and he despises the relentless attacks on our democracy.

Please ❤️ and share to thank Bruce Springsteen!

BREAKING: Donald Trump is reportedly furious after a group of 125 presidential scholars put out their annual collective ranking of the presidents today, and both of Trump’s terms were unanimously ranked as the two worst in US history.

[greg cantwell @gregmcantwell]

@NBCNews He doesn’t have the authority. The founders specifically excluded the president from election authority because they were concerned that a corrupt president would be put his thumb on the scale. Like Trump is trying to do now.

[🪷McBeth 🌻🇺🇸☘️🟦🟧📎 @mcbeth0943]

@RpsAgainstTrump Unbelievable. It’s the duty of Congress to monitor war actions.

Republicans have abdicated their responsibilities.They need to be voted out next year, every single R member of the House, & every R Senator. If they won’t do their jobs….lets elect someone responsible who will!.

[Forever Voyager 🇪🇺 🇺🇦 @SambaD888]

@RpsAgainstTrump Attacking other countries without Congress autorisation is a way for Trump to distract from the Epstein files.

Satellite images show that President Trump's project to build a $300 million grand ballroom appears to have removed two historic magnolia trees on the White House grounds, as well as the Jacqueline Kennedy Garden. https://t.co/gk79mXfhSq

@theliamnissan These are people who have been taken in by Trump's propaganda and it all stems are round repeating the same lie and they're too stupid to distinguish the difference. Trump is following Hitler's plan.

Thanks to Senate Republicans, 17 million people will lose their health care.

Thanks to Senate Republicans, rural hospitals will close.

Thanks to Senate Republicans, three million Americans, including veterans and seniors, will lose food assistance.

Thanks to Senate Republicans, families will see their energy bills go up by $400 a year.

Senate Republicans are doing all of this and more — hurting working people across our nation — in order to pay for $1 trillion in tax cuts for billionaires.

There is still time to stop this bill before it passes in the House. Call 202-224-3121 and tell your representative to vote no.

[Elon Musk @elonmusk]

This level of violence is insane and deeply wrong.

Tesla just makes electric cars and has done nothing to deserve these evil attacks.

@mkhammer SHE DIDNT OVERSEE IT

She “joined” it to give remarks about a White House initiative on women's health research.

This new era of “it’s ok to make up stories to fight political battles and for attention” is getting on my last nerves
