I don't think you fully grasp the gravity of Trump's actions.

For the first time in its history, NATO is excluding the US from arms purchase programs. This takes place at a time where the EU is scrambling to prepare for a war with Russia, which is also caused by Trump's action of abandoning it's allies,

The Trump administration is also heavily invested in annexation rhetoric targeting multiple NATO members.

Then there's the whole tarrif absurdity.

These sequence of moronic steps individually represent world-changing events. They all took place in a couple of months into the Trump administration's takeover.

This goes well beyond the suspicion that Trump is a Russian stooge. This changes the way the world was structured after WW2. The fall of the soviet union might even have a smaller impact in world history.

I "grasp the gravity", to the extent that anyone is actually able to do so at this time. I am unwilling to engage in hyperbole in order to create the illusion of a nearby black hole.

This is a non-partisan reaction. I am opposed to tariffs; I am also opposed to panic and exaggeration.

Your choice of neutral, unbiased language is compelling.
