Russia Attacks Poland--And Trump's Too Busy Eating Seafood

Details are still coming in overnight, but Russia just violated Poland’s airspace with unmanned drones—an act that should be treated as an act of war against a NATO ally. And while the world waited for American leadership, where were Donald Trump and J.D. Vance? At Joe’s Seafood, mugging for cameras and stuffing their faces like a couple of jackasses.

This is exactly what I’ve been warning about for months on conservative media.

Trump struts around demanding a Nobel Peace Prize, bragging about all the wars he supposedly stopped. But every conflict we’ve seen this year is the direct result of cowardly, incompetent American leadership. We’ve got a president who can’t tell friend from enemy, who sucks up to dictators, rolls out the red carpet for murderers, and lets our military kneel before foreign strongmen. He’s gutted the Department of Defense (and no, I ain’t calling it by its new name) and handed the keys to hacks like Pete Hegseth—rubber-stamped by Senate Republicans who’ve enabled this disaster every step of the way.

And now? Poland may be forced to invoke Article 5 of NATO. That’s not a drill. Article 5 means the potential for war. A real one. And here’s the truth: under strong American leadership, this doesn’t happen . Not under Joe Biden. Not under Reagan. Not under Clinton. Not even under Bush. But it is happening under Trump—because our enemies don’t fear us. They see a reality show president who talks tough but folds under pressure. They don’t believe we’ll defend our allies. And why would they?
