    Exactly. I don’t like Merz, but it’s absolutely pointless trying to grandstand against him in public will only make you a target. Trump has the maturity of a toddler so best you can do is nod and smile in public … and then try to talk to the adults in the backroom.

          Different degrees of full of themselves and stupid on top vs. outright demented megalomaniac moron.

          It’s like jumping into a cesspit in order to fish for your favourite turd.

      Well, some leaders have successfully pushed back against him. I think Macron corrected him back when he visited shortly after inauguration.

        What was the success of that? I haven’t seen any positive result… except perhaps for macrons ratings back home.

          In the case I’m thinking of probably just correcting the record and not looking like a bitch that lets the idiot lie while standing idly by.
