Re: President Trump 2.0
There is also this posted earlier.
Withdrawing the United States from International Organizations, Conventions, and Treaties that Are Contrary to the Interests of the United States
Quote:
MEMORANDUM FOR THE HEADS OF EXECUTIVE DEPARTMENTS AND AGENCIES
By the authority vested in me as President by the Constitution and the laws of the United States of America, I hereby direct:
Section 1. Purpose. (a) On February 4, 2025, I issued Executive Order 14199 (Withdrawing the United States from and Ending Funding to Certain United Nations Organizations and Reviewing United States Support to All International Organizations). That Executive Order directed the Secretary of State, in consultation with the United States Representative to the United Nations, to conduct a review of all international intergovernmental organizations of which the United States is a member and provides any type of funding or other support, and all conventions and treaties to which the United States is a party, to determine which organizations, conventions, and treaties are contrary to the interests of the United States. The Secretary of State has reported his findings as required by Executive Order 14199.
(b) I have considered the Secretary of State’s report and, after deliberating with my Cabinet, have determined that it is contrary to the interests of the United States to remain a member of, participate in, or otherwise provide support to the organizations listed in section 2 of this memorandum.
(c) Consistent with Executive Order 14199 and pursuant to the authority vested in me as President by the Constitution and the laws of the United States of America, I hereby direct all executive departments and agencies (agencies) to take immediate steps to effectuate the withdrawal of the United States from the organizations listed in section 2 of this memorandum as soon as possible. For United Nations entities, withdrawal means ceasing participation in or funding to those entities to the extent permitted by law

Very very concerning!

I can't put words in his mouth, I can't talk for him. Your original question is difficult because I care little about him to even attempt to help him. I tuned out when he was blindly supporting Arsenal and their previous honours charge which were all so perilous.

How would you like a leader of the UK to respond to Trump's announcement?

Re: President Trump 2.0
"Made up ordure" ≠ "paraphrase"…

Re: President Trump 2.0
I suppose this (Greenland) needs some analysis. So here goes (subject to #8 below).
1/
Trump is doing a Putin - but in a different way. I don't need to go into that any further.
2/
He is blackmailing Europe with a tariff policy that, in the long term, could negatively impact our economic growth as well as Europe's. Problem is, how do we fight back? Diplomacy won't do it; not even licking his arse.
3/
Europe needs urgently to hold a "what shall we do" conference; this isn't an EU matter - it's a European issue that doesn't need us to be under the Brussels heel. It needs cooperation.
4/
The first thing that Europe then could do (but see #8), is to implement a "USA not welcome here" policy. Basically, do a Trump. Retaliate. Slap reciprocal tariffs on their products.
5/
It now looks inevitable that that Europe will have to look after its own defence. We can put the USA on tice to quit its bases in the UK and Europe, including Greenland and give them just a few weeks to implement that.
6/
All of Europe needs to understand that Trump only understands strength and therefore strength must be shown and further developed in his face.
7/
The special relationship is all but over. If it is special, Trump can exempt us from his measures without insisting that we lick his arse. The illusion must be snuffed.
8/
And here is the problem: the associated disruption to business is likely to have dire consequences for European wellbeing. So, one strategy is to string the USA along until the mid-term elections, having sounded out the Democrats as to their opposition to Trump's upsetting the world order. Otherwise, there will be a new world order.
In writing the above, I note that the UK and France have an independent nuclear deterrent, in the UK's case limited to submarines as I understand matters, Then between the European countries we could muster c. 1 million professional soldiers under a unified command. Navies and air forces can be similarly managed and weapons production limited to home grown.
Who's gonna do all that?

Re: President Trump 2.0
No need to do anything, I'd guess there are a few people already scratching his name on a bullet or two . . and some may be close to him
