A lightweight news hub to help decentralize the fediverse load: mirror and discuss headlines here so the giant instance communities aren’t a single choke-point.

Rules:

  1. Recent news articles only (past 30 days)
  2. Title must match the headline or neutrally describe the content
  3. Avoid duplicates & spam (search before posting; batch minor updates).
  4. Be civil; no hate or personal attacks.
  5. No link shorteners
  6. No entire article in the post body

“From the bitter divisions of 250 years ago, we forged a friendship that has grown into one of the most consequential alliances in human history,” Charles said.

Yeah, that's not necessarily a positive thing though, and I'm sure that wording was chosen very deliberately.

That said, nothing in that article indicates that Trump was in any way humiliated, even if he could experience humility, or even what Charles said was especially humiliating.

I'm sure once Trump's had it explained to him, though, that he'll have a similar response as any other time he is even mildly rebuked or questioned - abuse.
