So, how many in the government are called Gaylord? Will they be detained and forced to give up their name? Mandatory change to Petey?

I guess there’s also a Gaylord street and monument here and there?

It’s kind of interesting because it directly echos Trump’s own thoughts. As personal or his business strategy Trump alwaslys tried to block payment after contracted work was done.

And now part of his supreme court is showing the same tendency, I suspect this will come back again and again untill more justices fall in line and the ruling for non payment of delivered work sticks.

Perhaps at some point Trump or the supreme court declares:

“Doing work for/in name of King Trump is it’s own reward, outstanding bills are null and void”.

To those with an inkling of thought on education in the US this should hit home…

Actually he is doing a:

“Give money, or I let the guy with the gun shoot you”

It’s the same scheme he uses to pressure Zelensky/Ukraine.

(The NATO agreement was “attempt for 2%” and no way to enforce it if it didn’t work out, so Trump’s whole “or else” point is a form of blackmail outside of the written agreements)

Doesn’t detract from your other point, the European armies do need a boost, have needed one for a while now. And as a combined bloc the EU should muster up a permanent standing (modern) army.

They should also buy/manufacture their own equipment to be less dependable on the whims of the US and keep their defense funds within the EU. But I’ll bet this is something Trump does not want to happen, perhaps he’ll start shouting the EU should pay HIM 5% and not NATO…

Ad a sidenote, the EU should now be seen as one financial entity and count the % to that, not individual countries.

Yeah uh about that … let’s brainstorm …what if Zelensky is taken hostage on his next visit to the White House?

Or what if his plane flying him back suddenly dissappears?

Falling out a window only happens because of weird Russian glass, yes?

“The great peacemaker” needs big wars so that he can eventually “make” a peace…
