I think you’ve done some great work on this piece and you highlight just how regressive the Trump regime is today.

What waste and needlessly so, too. It’s done nothing for the world and nothing for the US. His administration is failing to be a leader nation, one that could have been trusted and respected but which today, is losing all that on a daily basis. His threats to NATO are pointless and his attacks on Pope Leo and the Catholic Church are a distraction and seem to be a way for him to discharge or dump his frustrations and anger onto someone who may seem to be a threat to him, because the Pope has felt drawn to speaking out about the dangers of war mongering

and its consequences and effects on mankind.

These are very strange and disturbing times. It feels as if it is time for the grownups to take charge now.
