Trump's Second Term

Lindsey Graham is calling for Zelensky to apologize to Trump.

Lindsey is taking a refresher course on Trump ass-kissing.
Lindsey is becoming my Exhibit A for 'Why we need a Constiutinal Amendment to Limit Terms in Congress".
 
The official pushed back on the notion that Trump and Vance’s confrontation with Zelensky was premeditated, and noted that efforts were made to strike a more positive tone in planning ahead of the meeting as indicated by Trump’s dropping yesterday of his accusation that Zelensky is a "dictator."

When you say "Americans", you are most certainly implying "all". Why not just say, "I should have been more specific and said "Americans who voted for Trump,"?
Semantically, absolutely not.

However, I accuse americans of allowing this hateful rhetoric to flourish, with no discernible resistance. It's a cultural thing, I know.

Inequality is a primary background driver. In large part because it enabled and fueled strategies to create and exploit resentment.

John Hudson, Washington Post says the Trump administration is considering ending all ongoing shipments of military aid to Ukraine in response to Zelensky’s remarks in the Oval Office on Friday and his perceived intransigence in the peace process, per senior administration official.
