After Donald Trump very mildly attacked Vladimir Putin over the weekend, the Kremlin fired back and accused Trump of being "emotional" and having "emotional reactions" to what's happening around the world. In other words, Putin thinks that Trump is weak and acting like a child with his "emotional" reactions. This is a clear sign that Putin has no intention of giving in to any of Trump's "demands" that he may have for ending the war.
Donald Trump and his Republican allies have been insistent that their budget does NOT call for cuts to Medicaid or other social welfare programs. Unfortunately for them, not everyone is on the same page of talking points, and one of Trump's closest advisers accidentally admitted during an interview that the bill DOES cut Medicaid by $880 billion. In other words, he admitted that everyone in the GOP is lying about the cuts.
Foreign tourism to the United States has dropped by about 10% this year, all because of Donald Trump and his policies. This drop in tourism is projected to cost the economy as much as $23 billion and up to a quarter of a million jobs. Foreigners may not have a say in US elections, but they are certainly voting with their dollars right now.
During his Memorial Day speech in front of families that had lost their loved ones in active duty service, Donald Trump boasted to the crowd that he "has everything." As if that wasn't bad enough, he also managed to make it even worse by saying that God "favors" him. The man is absolutely delusional and dangerous, but he's also the most insensitive person on the planet with a complete lack of empathy for others.
