Rules:

Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.

We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.

All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.

Yeah, what's the point? You get stuck listening to him ramble about something not related to your business there. The photo-ops are always humiliating, as he tries to wrap you into whatever stupid-ass controversy he's dealing with at the moment. Not worth the time.

He rejected the Polish government's offer to send a member of the Polish foreign office along with him, on the basis that he thinks they'll offend Trump and his officials.

Thanks, now I don't have to read the article. Shit headline, tho.

Why read about the thing you're talking about when you can ramble about whatever

Trump is literally a treasonous, incompetent Neville Chamberlain so I wonder if Trump will try to negotiate Polish land for Russia.

It’s not safe for anyone to come to the US, they can just revoke your visa without notification and render you to a third nation gulag.

guy who is not authorised to make foreign policy decisions travels overseas on public's dime to.... make foreign policy decisions??? So couple of obvious themes:

  1. guy likes to travel with comfort on public dime
  2. it's a private bribe session
  3. he'll be asking US to kick some money his way to take over the "uncooperative" government

He meant that he wants to go alone and without the usual entourage so can have more private chat with little dictator. Maybe for easier grifting
