Welcome to European Tribune. It's gone a bit quiet around here these days, but it's still going.
Display:
  1. Ditching Iran Deal
  2. Starting Trade War
  3. Needless pissing off almost everyone
  4. Doing deals with dodgy Russians to build Trump tower in Moscow etc.

And what alternative are the Dems offering? Three septuagenarians? Hillary? Sanders? Pelosi?

Frank, did I predict that a Democratic nominee would replace Trump?

When was the last time a sitting President failed to win his party's nomination? How well are anti-Trump Republicans doing at the moment? Evidence please...

As I recall, he was the official Republican nominee in the election he lost to Clinton. You are confusing the primary with the general election.

Whoever wins the Rethuglican primary, and it's Der Drumpfenfuehrer Little Donny Dreckwerfer's if he wants it, will win the presidency.  The neoliberal arsefardles of the DNC/DLC/DCCC will make sure of that.

I still remember how we, or at least I, thought more than ten years ago that Europe will finally have to get out from behind the US' skirts because the relationship was getting so poisonous. Freedom Fries and all. Came to nothing in the end.
Ditching the Iran deal seems very much in line with prior policy. Bush also needlessly agonized Iran after they helped him out with the Taliban. Hero of the Resistence™ David Frum wrote them a nice thank you note. And the sanctions were always inimical to European economic interests.
The trade war is certainly a lot more blatant than in the old days.
