Even against the staggeringly grotesque day-to-day reality of Trump's corruption and malfeasance, this urge he apparently has to try to come to the rescue of foreign politicians rightly facing consequences for their own corruption and malfeasance really stands out.

It sounds glib, but it really does appear thst he simply, genuinely believes that corrupt sacks of shit have to stick together, and he's trying to do his part (and, no doubt, end up owed a favor).

Sadly because it seems to work. Look how many times Trump was down and got 'rescued' by some other foreign/Russian scumbags.

And someone on the inside front-ran the news. If this isn't corruption, i don't know what is anymore. https://x.com/SpencerHakimian/status/1943048225763782840

Tropico has ceased trading with a certain major superpower! The Palace's statement? 'They don't trade fair, so neither will we.'
