Trump lectured Mr. Zelenskyy about the lack of gratitude for US military aid. Vance lectured him about his (Zelenkyy's) lack of respect for Trump!
It became a sort of brawl, and a bad scene, generally. Trump's job was easy: figure how to refuse them any military aid. He probably succeeded within minutes. But many of the European governments said they would try to rise to the occasion and provide a much military support for Ukraine as they could.
Of course, Trump has complained for years that the Europeans had left the defence of Ukraine mostly to us Americans, so this is a welcome change of direction on the part of the Eurozone, to coin a phrase. Well, evening if this wasn't what Trump wanted, he'll pretend that it is.
Meanwhile, Musk is destroying the Veteran's Administration and Social Security. This doesn't really immediately scare us younger people, but it does mean that we're going to have to take savings a lot more seriously. I know all about that; I saved 15% of my earnings for all the while I was working, and lived very frugally. But that lifestyle isn't for everybody.
But, worst of all is how the Trump Administration encourages parents of infants to skip vaccination. This has resulted in outbreaks of Measles in, I believe, Texas. RFK has conceded that we can expect Measles outbreaks at least twice a year henceforth. This is terrible news.
