"At the World Economic Forum in Davos, Switzerland, this morning, a visibly exhausted president of the United States of America rambled in angry free association in a speech before the world’s leaders. At one point, speaking of North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO) dignitaries, he told the audience: 'Until the last few days when I told them about Iceland, they loved me. They called me daddy, right, last time. Very smart man said, "He’s our daddy. He’s running it.”
"He meant Greenland.
"The president of the United States went on to give a virulently racist, insulting, rambling speech in which he complained that people call him a dictator but that 'sometimes you need a dictator.' More than anything, though, the speech demonstrated his mental unfitness for his position. Tom Nichols of The Atlantic wrote: 'No one can be watching this Davos speech and reach any conclusion but that the President of the United States is mentally disturbed and that something is deeply wrong with him. This is both embarrassing and extremely dangerous.'”... -- Heather Cox Richardson at her "Letters from an American" Substack, yesterday. Tom Nichols would be a bit imprecise in his comment, because you'd be hard pressed to find any of this truthful analysis in our craven news media. While the world and a growing number of Americans observe and react with horror at the ravings of our mad moron president, you'd think all was normal and well if you had the slightest exposure to "mainstream media" news reporting. Of all the institutions that have failed us over the past 10 years, U.S. media stands at the forefront.
Oh, and sclerotic Democratic leadership is up there too.
