I highly recommend Robert Kagan's Atlantic article that Tim mentions at the beginning: theatlantic.com/interna…. It provides a chilling perspective I hadn't heard anywhere else when I read it yesterday morning.
Thanks for the article. I think the writer is spot on — I’m not sure Trump realizes the consequences and potentially, for him, domestic benefits of what he just did.

Oh, screw the Atlantic. Genocidal apologists.
So you disagree w/ the premise of the article? I thought it was compelling.
Sorry, no insult was intended.
I am just so furious.
Do you know about Robert Kagan?

And I wasn't insulted! You obviously have very strong feelings / opinions about this.
His name sounds familiar; that's it. But even if the article was written by AI, I think it makes a lot of sense. I'd love to be convinced otherwise!
(Did you see my question to your comment re Putin? I'm really trying to understand the complexities here.)
