Yes, that business about "the largest trade deal ever seen" was directed at Ursula von Leyden. Not TO her, simply AT her.

She spoke for a bit about how she felt, as a mother and grandmother, seeing children torn from their families and taken to Russia.

Trump responded with his remark about the largest trade deal. Presumably he was talking about his meeting with her in Scotland, but JFC, could he not stay on topic for one friggin' minute?

That's not dementia. That's just narcissism with lashings of rude. And as always, I nicked it.

You must listen to this speech by Russian dissident, Kara Murza, who was imprisoned for years by Putin and recently released in a prisoner exchange. He has an abundance of perceptions about autocrats like Putin and what we can do to thwart their influence. Absolutely fascinating.

And Trump doesn't see that Putin putting our flags on his tanks isn't a big middle finger.???
