Trump is treading the path to authoritarianism, that's how Hitler and Mussolini began, by fooling the simple-minded that it was all in the national interest. 

Trump talks big on free speech yet shuts it down if the "free" isn't to his liking, Hitler did that.  

Just where do you get this shite from. Nobody in US history has undergone such national abuse as Trump. Newspapers television talk shows the media Hollywood et have thy all been shut down. The US is a free country and will be a lot freer when Trump leaves office

Biden did it too when he required social media to censor all posts that weren't in line with the Administration's COVID policies.  Anything that disagreed with those policies was deemed "disinformation" and earned the authors of such posts a stint in "facebook jail".  That was one giant leap for authoritarianism.  Trump restored free speech on those platforms.

My beloved Marcus, just because Grey has criticisms of Ukraine doesn't mean she is pro-Russia.  Personally, I think Zelensky is acting like a two-year-old having a temper tantrum in the grocery store.  For instance, his refusal to wear a suit for a meeting with President Trump was to show his defiance and disrespect.  The regard is equal on Trump's part.  Now is the time for Zelensky to put on his big boy pants and start negotiating.  I'm not pro-Russia either, but the bleeding has to stop sometime.

I totally agree. Some people hate Trump so much, that they cannot see the forest for the trees.

I totally agree. Biden was bad about censorship. Marcus is silent about that.

Some people need to get over their hatred of Biden and equally their adoration of Trump. Had you asked me about Biden I would have agreed, but no-one did. 

What happened to Trump's pre-Election boast of ending the Ukraine War on day one? It's day 88 and the war is still raging. In fact he's threatened to withdraw from negotiations altogether in a massive failure of leadership. Putin played him like a puppet from the start. 

As for Zelensky not wearing a suit, what does it matter? Talks ended by Trump because he didn't wear a suit? How pathetic. I don't recall Musk doing so nor Kid Rock (whoever he is).

The slow descent to authoritarianism, just like Germany 1933. 

In El Salvador they can, the US is a different matter

Italy is talking to Trump about trade and tariffs. The EU is joining Argentina

and wants zero tariffs for both sides. In my opinion, this is a win-win for everyone,

This article has a list of countries working on trade deals with Trump,

Some people need to understand, that tariffs are legal and constitutional in the US.

Tariffs were used before the unconstitutional income tax was passed.

Trump is using tariffs as a tool. He wants a better deal for the US.
