We should replace our politicians with leftists who stand on a manifesto of standing up to Donald Trump.

I'd vote for that.

Too many are already forgetting what just happened (and keeps happening) a few months ago. A system that allows for a petulant toddler on top of the free world is a system that could allow for a whole succession of petulant toddlers if given the chance.

Trump didn't do it alone. He couldn't have done it without all his allies, and without all the other checks and balances surrendering their power to let him have his way. Take Trump out of the equation, and you still have the other 99% of the rot to clean up.

If Europe doesn't learn from this, it fully deserves what's bound to eventually come its way. Fool me once...
